Promising start but went downhill
My review may not be adequate like others since it is not based on proper research. I read the manhwa for the sake of watching this drama and it incidentally was my first manhwa. I was completely hooked on the manhwa. It was fast-paced and had satisfied ending for each character. Including all the side characters and also their villains. It gave proper reasoning for all past but here it was rushed. Even though the drama was 16 episodes it couldn't do justice to the webtoon. Here, there was no chemistry between the leads. I know many will disagree with me but it could've been better. In manhwa, it was slow-paced but there was an intensity in their relationship. There was reasoning for every small detail as in how Jiwon moved into the new apartment, that allergy fiasco, and the other leads' relationships. The casting of Jihyeok was not good. I'm not saying that this actor is not looking but he couldn't do justice to the character. The villains were properly cast and their acting is the only good part of this whole drama. The best part of the manhwa that the drama failed to present was that Jiwon was kickass in the manhwa. Here, it felt forced. Especially all those so-called self-defense moves. I could rant about every single detail. But to summarize this review the drama was a mediocre remake of an excellent manga with not-so-appealing casting, average acting, inadequate storyline, screenplay, and production, an unnecessary introduction of new characters, not proper closures for other characters, and a lackluster ending.
