Honestly, I don't usually finish dramas, so the fact that I actually finished this one has to count for something. 😭
I think my main issue with this drama is that it had a lot of potential, but it never really did enough with it. The side characters were nice, but I wish they had been fleshed out better. There was so much room to explore their stories better, but I never felt like the drama went deep enough with any of them. The side plots were more interesting than the main plot even though their stories weren't explored better, so thats funny.
Also, both the leads are SO overpowered. Like, I get that they're supposed to be capable and impressive, but at some point, it becomes difficult to feel invested when you know they're probably going to be fine no matter what happens. There weren't enough real stakes to make me worry about them or wonder how they were going to get out of a difficult situation.
The drama wasn't necessarily bad, though. I enjoyed watching it, and the visuals and cinematography were definitely a plus. It was beautiful to look at, and I think that helped keep me interested even when the story itself wasn't doing much for me. Sometimes, a drama can have a relatively simple plot and still be incredibly engaging if the characters are well-written and the tension is there. Unfortunately, I don't think this one quite managed that.
Overall, it was an enjoyable watch, but not one that left me particularly invested in the story or its characters. I liked the leads, appreciated the visuals, and managed to finish a drama for once, so there's that. I just wish the writing had given me more reasons to care about what was happening instead of relying so much on how capable the characters were.
