Not bad for a KBl


CONTAINS SEMI SPOILERS IG

Thoughts:
I’m honestly a little disappointed. The webcomic for this drama has 48 episodes while the drama has only 10 episodes that are about 15 mins each. The director in the webcomic is drawn to be a bit younger and acts more flirtatious and full of emotions than the drama one. The webcomic Seol DongBaek is just so cute. He acts super sweet and innocent. Now, typically I don’t find myself enjoying KBl due to the incredible short amount of run time and lack of understanding. However I think this KBl is by far one of the best ones that explains what tf is happening. In other Kbls it mostly just skims around and jumps so you can never fully grasp but I found myself understanding for the most part what was happening. The concept of this was actually pretty interesting but I feel like it just told what happened to them 300 years ago and doesn’t like explain much about why they like each other or what they did together as a couple 300 years ago since they were definitely not of the same class in hierarchy. It just said ‘hey you name that kid? Well he’s going to die and now you guys are stuck reincarnating to fall in love. One of you is going to remember the other is not. Oh and btw if you guys fail to fall in love one of you is going to suffer and yk possibly die.’ And that’s pretty much it. I feel it didn’t explain enough about the curse at all. The curse was just ‘y’all are going to live forever and fall in love or else die on each reincarnation.’ It never really explained how the curse would be lifted or when they would know.

This is a pretty cute Kbl. The acting isn’t bad at all. Although I am confuzzled because before the director is like kind of emotionless and serious but after um everything he’s like oddly warm and welcoming to Seol DongBaek. Maybe it’s because he don’t remember anything. Idk anymore. Although in the drama when the director gets flustered I must say it is funny and kinda cute in a sense. The acting is nice and pretty believable. I think the chemistry is great and was not bad at all. The way the cast acted was very good.

The story:
Firstly I have a theory that Denis may in fact be the killer from 300 years ago who was also cursed to keep reliving over and over again. So maybe the curse is more of a ‘hey fall in love or your killer will like yk become a murderer again.’ The story is not bad at all. It’s nice and has a good flow of events. However I personally would’ve liked to see Seol DongBaek regain his memories. I mean it’s fine that he doesn’t and it doesn’t change the story but if he did I think that would’ve been pretty cool. I would’ve definitely like to have seen more of the director and Seol DongBaek’s relationship. I almost feel like Seol DongBaek spent more time with Denis than the director. This may be petty but I need more of jealous director moments. I swear if the director found out about the um cosmetic situation with Denis he’d flip. This Kbl definitely has its comedic moments though. I mean I’m sure some of you have seen shorts on YT about it. This Kbl actually has a lot of emotions happening. So be prepared *dabs eyes with tissue*

Music: The music was actually really good. I think the intro music was really cute and I thought it was very nice. Now the OST was freakin beautiful. It fits perfectly for this Kbl. It was so emotional.

I definitely have already rewatched it because I think it’s pretty enjoyable. It’s nice and simple with just the right amount of emotion. I just pray we get a second season because WTF was that ending? I mean come onnnn. You can’t end a Bl like that and make no announcements about a second season. Although it is pretty in line with the ending of the webcomic so I guess I can’t be too mad at it.
