Wow this was sooooo bad
A drama that had all the ingredients to be something special — but squandered every single one of them.
The female lead's performance is the drama's most glaring flaw. In a story that demands your sympathy, her acting consistently gets in the way of it. Her crying scenes, in particular, feel less like genuine distress and more like a soundtrack you want to mute. The male lead fares no better in terms of how the script handles him. If he already planned on leaving, why allow himself — and worse, encourage her — to develop feelings? It's a fundamental character logic problem that the writers never address.
At its core, the show's biggest crime is a badly written foundation. You can feel the gap between what the show was trying to be and what it actually became.
