only bad thing about the drama is that its so short

i had no expectations going into this since i didnt even read the summary nor watched the trailer, i went in blind and i gotta say i was pleasantly surprised

first i'd like to say i may be biased towards the story because im a sucker for "lovers in a past life that ended tragically". id say this bl did a good job with the little time they had on their hands. their past life is explained just fine for the viewers to understand it, although it is not explained why the curse happened. i think the actors did a good job in portraying the characters and surprisingly i didnt find their acting cringey like i do with most bl's i watch.

the ending. i loved the ending because it just felt right because of the whole situation. first dongbaek didnt remember anything and the director needed to bear the burden of his past memories and dongbeaks tragic death in his past life, but at the end it was the opposite. i really loved the ending because in some ways it is an open ending because we dont know how their relationship would develop afterwards and its up to the viewer (although we all know they would end up together either way with or without their past memories)

whole time i was watching this i was kicking my feet because of how cute it was. i love the soulmates trope and to me they really felt like soulmates because even after 300 they still found a way back to each other

only thing bad about this bl is that its so short! i really wish the episodes were at least 30 minutes because it would give time for the characters to fully develop and show more of their relationship

i would recommend this for people to watch because its short and very easy to watch. the fluff was just so cute !! (although i did shed a tear at the end nonetheless i love bittersweet endings!)
