  Caution: Spoilers Ahead!
  
  A vibrant and well-executed drama focusing on an unconventional romance that defies age barriers. I found myself fully engrossed in this series, initially drawn to the intriguing age gap between the two lead characters. Despite the noticeable age difference, the on-screen chemistry between the actors was undeniable, making their interactions not only believable but also incredibly endearing. The male lead's unique ability of psychometry lent a refreshing twist to the storyline, adding a layer of charm and humor that set this series...

  apart.
  While the main focus was the captivating noona romance, I must admit that I found the BL scenes somewhat distracting and unnecessary, often preferring to skip through them to delve back into the primary narrative. The male lead's unwavering care and concern for the female lead were particularly striking, showcasing a level of emotional depth rarely seen in similar dramas.
  The revelation of the female lead's pivotal role in the male lead's past, especially in triggering his extraordinary ability, added a fascinating dimension to their relationship, piquing my curiosity further. Witnessing the female lead's gradual transformation from a seemingly aloof boss to a more compassionate individual under the male lead's influence was both heartwarming and engaging.
  The inclusion of colorful and lively fashion runway scenes injected a sense of vitality into the series, complementing the overall tone of the storytelling. The dedication and determination displayed by the female lead in her career as a fashion designer, supported by a lovable cast of quirky subordinates, added a delightful layer to the narrative.
  One standout moment for me was the emotionally charged scene where the male lead, misinterpreting a situation, runs through the rain to express his feelings—an intense and memorable sequence that truly showcased the actors' talents.
  In conclusion, this drama breaks away from the traditional tropes of its genre, offering a fresh and enjoyable viewing experience for fans of romantic dramas, especially those intrigued by unconventional relationships. I wholeheartedly recommend this series to anyone seeking a light-hearted yet engaging watch that will keep you entertained until the very end.

  This series I've been eagerly anticipating for a while, drawn in by the talents of the lead actors and my fondness for noona romances. The wait paid off, delivering a delightful experience that may not break new ground in terms of plot, but certainly succeeds in offering a refreshing and uplifting dose of entertainment.
  
  At its core, the story revolves around Rin, a seemingly aloof fashion designer longing for genuine human connection. Her path crosses with Ray, a young college student aspiring to intern at her...

  fashion company alongside his friends. Ray harbors a unique ability – he can glimpse people's last memories through touch, though this gift comes at great personal cost. Yet, when he comes into contact with Rin, he discovers a rare exception: touching her brings him no pain, sparking his curiosity and prompting him to pursue her affection.
  
  One of the series' highlights is the infusion of a supernatural element into the predominantly fashion-centric narrative, injecting an extra layer of intrigue. Additionally, the inclusion of a secondary BL couple portrayed by Toptap and Fame, while not groundbreaking, serves as a charming supplement to the main storyline.
  
  The noona romance between Cris (Rin) and Blue (Ray) is undeniably endearing, buoyed by the actors' compelling chemistry and their infectious charisma. Their on-screen presence is further enhanced by the vibrant and visually striking backdrop of colorful scenery, soft lighting, and stylish attire, all of which contribute to the series' aesthetic appeal.
  
  While the initial episodes brimmed with excitement, the latter half admittedly lost some momentum, at times feeling a bit sluggish. Nevertheless, the overall viewing experience remained enjoyable, culminating in some particularly memorable and well-executed kiss scenes that left a lasting impression.
  
  For those seeking a blend of simple yet heartwarming storytelling, intertwined with elements of noona romance, BL dynamics, insights into the fashion industry, and a visually captivating palette, this series offers a worthwhile viewing choice.
