Unexpected Delight
What a fantastic fun watch! Honestly I looked up the drama previously and decided not watch it, but then I heard great reviews and decided to give it a go. Let's be honest, if you're into asian dramas, the whole cat to human transformation and love story has been done many times, however this is the first time I have seen it executed so well. Majority of time it's cringey and ridiculous, Make A Wish is an exception. The script writers and cast have pulled off what I always thought was impossible with this kind of story.
The acting was fabulous, the female lead embodied the identity of a cat in human form without going overboard. It was the small things that really stuck out, for example the positioning of her hands when she was sleeping, and the sudden change in her facial expressions at different things. For the male lead he was just as good as the female lead. There were scenes that were acted out so realistically towards different situations, it recalled my own experiences. I could relate to his response to different situations, as I have had the exact same response, or someone has had that response to me in a similar setting. Applause all round for the acting.
As for the pacing of this drama; it was perfect. I often have a hard time finishing c dramas due to either the length, or the pacing. I'm use to the kdrama setup of 16 eps. Anything over 16eps I tend to struggle with, however Make A Wish is an exception. It doesn't get laggy or drag at all, but it's also not overly fast paced. The script writer found the middle ground perfectly. I believe this drama has made it 4th on the list of C-dramas that I finished, and didn't fast forward scenes.
The only downfall of this drama is the antagonist. the story never truly explained/ explored why he did what he did. I mean they kind of drop lines that gives you an idea of why, but surely there has to be more to it than what is revealed. It's not a big issue to overlook. It doesn't change the fact that this was a sweet, yet somehow relatable drama. So fun to watch, I hope anyone who reads this wondering if it's worth their time shall give it a try.
