Nah 'cause what was this??? The director really looked at one of the most mind-bending, emotionally layered webnovels ever and said “let’s make it ✨digestible✨ for people who only watch dramas for the pretty faces.” Be so serious.
The plot? Chopped. The pacing? Unhinged. The dialogue? Straight out of a Wattpad AU from 2014. It’s giving no thought, just vibes.And not even good vibes—confusing, low-effort, "we wrote this during lunch break" vibes. Like let’s be honest, the script feels like it was written with whatever spare change was left in the group chat.
They nerfed iconic characters, skipped emotional build-up, and added unnecessary drama like it's some fanfic written for engagement farming. Not to mention the weirdly sus treatment of the female characters? It's giving ✨bare minimum✨ with a sprinkle of casual misogyny.
Also not saying some people only like this show ‘cause their fave is in it but… if the boot fits 🤭
This was the one chance to make something iconic and they dropped the ball so hard it hit the Earth's core. Novel fans are in shambles and rightfully so.
