Triangle Details

The 2ML confesses and is jealous throughout, but the FL loves the ML from first sight and never seriously wavers. The bigger disruption comes from the possession storyline rather than the 2ML himself.

My Notes / Opinions

The first few episodes are genuinely nice. The FL liking the ML instantly is refreshing, and the dynamic works well when it’s just them. He’s more closed off, she’s openly caring, and their early build up feels sweet and promising.

Then the thriller elements start taking over. The ghost possession arc becomes the dominant focus and drags on way too long. From around episode 8 onward, it feels like nonstop ghost plot, and the actual ML is barely present. The story completely shifts away from what made the drama enjoyable in the first place.

The 2ML confession doesn’t really change anything since the FL is locked in on the ML from the beginning. The real frustration is the possession storyline hijacking the romance. Having the first kiss happen while the ML is possessed kills the emotional payoff of the build up completely.

By episode 10 to 11, it feels like the plot is actively getting in the way of the romance. The sweet early tone disappears, the pacing slows, and the possession arc overstays its welcome. Dropped in episode 11.
