What a Fun Web Drama

The story for what I thought would be forgettable, especially for a short-form drama, was actually fun. I didn't have that many expectations since I just came here for FL because this is the shortest drama I saw from her to finish. Immediately I was sold at the end of episode 1 on how uniquely fun it was. There are times in my brain when I would try to logically analyze everything because it's one of those types of story that is heavily reliant on a plot device that's not explained at all and it's just there to create a story. I would be like "No! Shut up brain! I do not want to dig deep into things or else my experience will be ruined". I was surprised for the investors that they didn't take advantage of this because if you tell me that this drama is an advertisement for a Grocery store I wouldn't be surprised about it. This was such a gold mine for product placements and it wouldn't be annoying to look at since it's part of the story. In the end, they tried to explain the intricacies of the plot device, though I don't think they needed to, since the story was already fine without it being explained. It just unveiled the curtain behind the magic which was unnecessary in my opinion.

The characters... well, it's mostly about the main couple. They're pretty dynamic as the story goes on. I like their chemistry and the kissing scenes made me squeal every time for how good the usage was. FL is so lucky to have this in her portfolio as a young actress because her character requires a lot of faces and she managed to show the different sides of her. Even though she has that cutesy type of face, I prefer her serious side. I think I'm a fan now. I don't know about her first drama, but I would recommend this as a starter drama if you're getting into her. She did great here. For ML, he's fine. I liked how they balanced his character. He started strong, but when they revealed his plot twist, it kinda ruined it for me a little. It made sense for his character, but lacking in terms of acting. Overall he's good and a cutie as well.

Another minor critique is that the dubbing audio is pretty scuffed at times, but it didn't really deteriorate my watching experience.

So yeah, overall, a fun short drama. I highly recommend it. There's a 2 hours version of it where they stitched all the episodes to make it easy, so give it a watch.
