Today finished k-drama
'The Interest of Love'
Based on book, This romantic drama is understated.
It's not the typical cliché romantic genre kdrama with hyper energetic characters doing random things in the name of love.
It's a portrayal of love, inexpressive love n longing, yearning, heartbreaks n melancholy.
This actual slice of drama shows, how social status, wrong decisions, past events, affects future n makes you regret.
All characters are flawed which makes them human. Leads specially female has complex character. Leads unable to do things directly. They are emotionally, socially fearful ( like most of US),
All lead actors performed well with subtle emotions, neither overdramatic nor poker face. Leads has intense chemistry which is undeniable.
Drama's trailer was misleading, made viewers think that it's about adultery n cheating but nothing sort of happen. It's a very unpredictable drama.
Drama has slow pacing, I'm OK with it but someone might find it watching paint dry. Might be frustrating at times. Drama has melodious OSTs, good production design, cinematography n overall good direction. Supporting actors also performed well.
