Used to be one of my favorite manhwa that I looked forward to each week, but lately it’s starting to look like that meme of a horse drawing looking progressively worse.
Starts off a very good romcom that does new things with aging tropes - a 9/10 series - and maintains that momentum for a decent length of time. The issue is that by chapters 55-74 thereabout this just isn’t as enjoyable as it used to be. There’s a real drop in quality with the writing as well as the intelligence of the characters. Everyone is an idiot or toxic or both by a certain point.
The more serious drama elements would be fine if they were actually handled well, but this series should have stuck to being a romantic comedy because the writer seems inexperienced tackling drama and the comedy isn’t all there to help us suspend our disbelief and grievances anymore. The author seems to have an end game plan but very little idea how to get there in an enjoyable or organic fashion anymore.
It’s dropped in ratings for me from a 9/10 to a 7/10 given the overall writing and enjoyment factors. I’ll keep an eye on it in case it picks back up in quality, but there are so many things I could read instead of never ending melodrama.
