Under the Rain

by: clasicoustic-

Characterization (20 Pts)

Seeing as this was a one-shot, we really don't get to see any character development. Which is fine. However the readers are left to imagine for themselves how Yoona and Minseok really are. I mean it's supposed to be an AU!fic (Alternate Universe) but I had to envision the characters as Yoona and Xiumin themselves, complete with their own personalities - which may not be the case in your one shot.

Despite that, your portrayal of both the main characters was fine but the tidbits where were supposed to focus on them are given to the likes of Yixing and Luhan. There was little time for Yoona as is but I felt like Luhan and Yixing had more "screentime" per say.

I suggest writing a little bit more? You should increase the interactions with Yoona because I rarely read about her. Being the girl "under the rain" I would assume that she alongside of Minseok should be the main focus of the story.

Score:  15/20

Plot (20 Pts)

There is one thing I realy hate: Time Jumps. It's just that time jumps denote a change in setting so abruptly that the flow of the story is compromised.

In your case, it was executed fine but at times I really really disliked going back and forth between the present and the past - it might just be my personal taste but it left me c

Chapter 5: Thank you for your review ^^. This is my first time to write a fanfic and my first time to get a review, so honestly I'm very happy ^^. And actually, I already have beta readers. For the characters development, I know it needs so much attention, next time I will try to edit the whole story gradually. I know, this story is lacking in many aspects, but I will try to improve it later, but I'm still very happy to get this story evaluated by someone. So I know what's my mistake and I will try my best to make it better next time. Thank you so much ^^. I've credied you ^^.
