Very entertaining

I am surprised at the low ratings this is getting. I started watching kdrama during covid and while initially liking them all i recently found them getting repetitive and predictable. The last 2 series i really liked were The Gliry and Business Proposal.
This story is funny..full of twists and the 24 short episodes add up to about 10 full length episodes you usually get. This prevents prefictabke misunderstandings meant to drag out the story line fir no purpose.
I thought the leads hsd chemistry and the acting by both was excellent. I rated it 9.5 as im 75% through it. It would take a really really bad lst 6 episides to make me lower it. And i dont expect that.
Recommrnded!!!!

Waste o time

It had an interesting premise from the description but so many plot holes it bacame truly unwatcheable. I dont blame the actors who gave it theur best dhot but the director and scriptwriters should be blamed for overall guidsnce.
Too many what the hell moments when you can only shake your head at what decisions the characters maje. Yes its fantasy but good fantasy deoends on people making understandable decisions given the situation they dace. These characters did not. I wont ger into soecifics as i dont want to spoil it...to be honest i dont know how it ends as i gave uo after yet another stupid decision 70% of the way through.
Female lead did the best she could but the make lead was handcifed by the scroot and direction into appearing stupid.
I guess you could say i did not enjoy it..a waste if a few hours and i couldnt even myster the interest to watch the last 60 minutes ti see what hapoened.

Confusing genre but enjoyable

The advertising and the first 2 episodes scream romantic comedy but that it certainly is not. Its a very gory and intense thriller with unepected plot twists.
I note that many are unhappy with the violence and i can understand the disappointment for some although the opening scenes certainly gave a clue this was no rom com. I give it high marks for the guts of the writers in putting romance and comedy into what is essent8ally a horror story. The two leads were really convincing and the other cast plated their roles well. Come to this with a n open mind you will laugh at some scenes and hide your eyes at others.

Better than i expected

After a mumber of series i just gave ip on after a few episodes i was not exoecting much. The initial episode was hood but i found the lead actress a bit irritating. As the episodes passed i realised this was just her attempt at showing a young kid and as subsequent episodes had her character as older i found her scting ok. The story had a few holes but it moved along quite well until the last 2 or 3 which seemed drawn out unnnessarily . The whokhe series would have worked better if thry had edited out enough stuff fir teo less epsodes.
The above lines may read l8ke i didnt like it but i did. Worth a watch and the first new series i have completed in a while. I give it 8.5 which is a good score for me as i have only rated 2 series a 10.

Pleasant surprise

After watching all the big name drams im in the process of going through lesser known series to enjoy. The risk is they are often lesser known for a good reason. Ie. They were not that good. All too oten i invest the time to start a series byt afte 6 or 7 episides i give uo through boredom. Generally you have to start 5 or 6 of these series to find one you want to watch to the end.

A long preamble but this was definitely one i wanted to watch to the end . A married couple about to divorce go back 20 years to 18 again. You think the premise is straightforward.. they meet again and rediscover their loce but the plot did more than that ....throwing in some twists that you didnt expect. Emotional and funny... a satisfying feel good series, well written, well acted and well directed. It fully deserves the overall 9 rating i gave it.
