Unfortunately, it has sixteen episodes each about 70 minutes long, and once we got into the second half they felt longer. It felt as if approximately 50 minutes of plot has to be wrapped in an additional 40 minutes of romantic glurge, sometimes with graphics of pastel hearts and rainbows literally decorating the screen.
*grumbles* I hate this trend of overlong episodes! I still remember a time when kdramas were 1 hour max, or even a zippy 45 min per episode, and the pacing was so much less bloated and more enjoyable! I blame the Answer Me/Reply series for starting the trend. Crash Landing on You is definitely on my watch list, though it looks like I'll have to use the fast forward button through some parts given what you said.
