Interesting plot.
Park Minyoung used to be one of my favorite Korean actresses, but these days I can barely stand to look at her. In Healer, City hunter Sungyukwan scandal and even some of her later works, like When the weather is fine and What's wrong with secretary Kim, her face used to be so beautiful and expressive with her chubby cheeks and bright smile, I could stare at her for hours and not get bored, but now I'm not sure if she had more plastic surgery of if it's the excessive weight loss but, she's lost her brightness, her expressions are stiff and I can't quite understand what she's supposed to be feeling and that's unfortunate because this drama is very interesting, I really liked the first two episodes, but I'm not sure if I want to continue watching, I want to because I'm really curious as to what exactly is going on but, ughh the plastic face is just too distracting.I've done my best not to be distracted by Park Mingyoung's appearance, it's hard but it's worth it, Especially because the villain is so terrifying, he doesn't have that many scenes or even lines but his presence is so alluring, this might be my favorite of Ki Junghyun's characters. The plot is getting more interesting, Han Seola has got to have the worst luck in drama history it is a miracle she's still alive actually. I want to know more, I'm pretty invested here, let's see what happens in the upcoming episodes.

A beautiful start
The tension between the two main stars is absolutely sizzling and full of feistiness. The storyline is really engaging so far, and I’m loving the chase the male lead is giving. The second male lead is also amazing—his expressions, even though he hasn’t had many scenes in these first two episodes, are outstanding. Truly impressive acting.I do think they could add a few more details to the story, but considering it’s only a 12-episode drama with hour-long episodes, it’s understandable.
One thing I’ve noticed is that some people are commenting that the female lead looks sickly or that her expressions seem off. Honestly, before starting this drama, I watched some of her interviews to get a sense of what to expect. I think she lost a lot of weight for her role, and her expressions, while they may feel a bit irritating, are intentional. That’s exactly the point—her performance is meant to evoke a specific reaction.
We have to remember that actors often go to great lengths for a role, whether it’s changing their appearance, losing or gaining weight, or completely transforming their demeanor. I’ve been following her since High Kick, and I think she’s doing an incredible job in this drama.
