could've been really really good
trigger warning: sexual assault, suicide
well i don't intend to make this long but i feel like i have to say something because everyone in the comments section are destroying this series lol
i mean, it wasn't bad. some things were like, really off tho.. why is the unnecesary sa always present during this kind of series? maybe if they hadn't brushed it off it could've been somewhat meaningful to the plot, but no. also, another unnecesary thing - the break up due to lack of communication. seheon, taeyi wasn't going to be mad at you just because of something your brother did. he was prob just going to be shocked and hurt but that's it, it's natural since his brother commited suicide and obviously, it had a huge impact in taeyi's life and left a big trauma, but it wasn't seheon's fault. i haven't read the manhwa so i don't really know how this whole situation was originally developed.
for me, the secondary couple outshined the main one, lol. they were really toxic and jooha was the biggest red flag ever, but i guess that's what made them more interesting for me - i love angsty relationships so bad hhhh i wanted to see more of them and they also deserved more screentime together. also, i'm 100% against violence but jooha deserved to get a little beaten up tho.. it looks like it made him realize he was acting like absolute trash :/
i think the whole plot idea was really good even though they used some tropes we've already seen, but the lack of runtime to develop the story was what made it go from excellent to.. just a good show to watch if you're bored. maybe 10 episodes would've been nice, but yeah.
...and bro, the whole story with seheon's brother and taejoon made me SO sad, he must have felt so guilty and sad, and taejoon :( deserved so much better, poor him.
anyway to sum up, it wasn't TERRIBLE as everyone in the comments is saying, the main problems basically were:
- limited runtime to fully develop a complex storyline
- unnecesary drama and lack of communication throughout the whole thing
it's not a must watch, but it was good! also ji hogeun looked gorgeous even when he was feeling sick. kudos to him and his beauty <3
