The plot’s decent, but drags a bit. Characters felt distant to me. Maybe for romance fans only.

Story starts off slow but gets interesting. Characters have real depth and flaws. Felt relatable in parts, which was cool.

Das Buch ist fesselnd und zeigt echte Emotionen. Die Wiederbegegnung der Protagonisten ist gut beschrieben. Ich mochte die Dynamik zwischen Geo und Cha-gyeol sehr, sie fühlte sich echt an.
