Bit formulaic if I’m honest
There’s lots to like and plenty to dislike in this drama.
Likes:
The actors were great, even if the FL was very grating to begin with. The character development was spot on, the chemistry between the FL & ML slowburn and realistic (with its up and downs honest and believable) and the subplot of the embassy shenanigans was uncovered layer by layer which added intrigue. The production values and costumes were great even though the FL’s hair looked plastic.
Dislikes:
Although the ML quickly worked out whodunnit for each crime after a while I wished there had been less of them to solve as after a while I got a bit bored and I will admit that I skipped a few chapters (ok, about half). Additionally, the English accents and intonation was hilariously awful.
Would I watch this again, no.
