I will have to recant my previous comment about how excited i am to watching it based on first two episodes. Unfortunately it went all downhill after that pretty hard. Although it is a trope rinsed way too many times and some of them were fantastic dramas boss/employee relationship , this is one didnt live up to it. ALthough lead actors are great at acting , the chemistry didnt even click one bit for me. I always yearn and swoon for the leads first kiss, in this one i felt so awkward i was forwarding it. The personal and professional conflicts are all that we have seen too many times, if executed well could have rehabilitated the story. This is lukewarm , template , drawn out drama with no real engagement factor. After 5th episode , i fast warded all episodes just to make sure i dont miss something crucial , but nothing of substance happened really. Han ji Min aces the other dramas like Roof top prince, familiar wife, Light in your eyes and one spring night but not this one. and its not her fault , may be a different FL should have been casted. Anyways 6/10.
On the mid of episode 2 , by far the best i have seen in a long time interms of engagement factor. Immediately had me hooked, Chemistry between the leads and the quirky music which enhances the scenes , the adorableness all the characters bring is so enjoyable. I am so invested , premise setsup beautifully for a bickering relationship and having a kid we know she is gonna warm up and waiting to become family. Male lead is so likeable , we know the female lead is OG for this type of role. Lovin it so much.
Tried two episodes and fast forwarded 3rd, supremely boring for me. right from the character interaction , story plot , conflict , Leads chemistry , none of them able to keep me engaged. Dropping it.
And to this Drama defenders please dont come at me with how good this drama and i am in inept to enjoy it. Its my subjective experience that i am sharing, i know it has good ratings, doesnt mean i would have to like it. Thanks
Coming this year, D+ announced it, it's linked above. Lucky you, we all had to wait for two years for it LOL.
Yeah thanks, Full context though , I watched right when it released as well. I even had checked out about season 2 a while back and also the nature of how it ended , pretty sure they had to give next sequel to explain about his uncle's mystery etc; Now it was more of stumbling upon this in happenstance and wanted to be part of comment section . As soon as i posted , i saw season 2 in the related content. Thanks anyways for taking time to respond.
I had a tough time in the beginning to and debated about dropping it, but hung on and am now on epi 8 and its…
Thank you Karen, Comment like these reminds me, good souls like you who offer their opinion in a civil way have not yet gone extinct as species on the internet. we still have Hope. ❤️
It fell flat in the second half, The main leads were not possessing some traits and personality i could get behind and root and care for them. We can pretty much can infer there might have been something bad and horrible happened to FL to commit such a crime, however when we get to the reveal of what happened which justifies the crime it had gone past the engaging factor, There were not much intelligence at play . Conflict, stakes and payoff all seemingly underwhelming in the end. Felt like a chore to finish this from EP8 onwards.
Worst female lead portrayal ever. A story which neednt be told and there wasnt anything to root for or anyone to care for in this drama. Twists and turns doesnt serve any purpose than vacuous stroking of FL ego. What a waste of time this was.
Extremely Good acting from the Lead actress , She captivated me within seconds of seeing her on screen. Completely heartbroken to getting to know her life and unfair the world is to people with good heart. Climax made me sob with inconsolable grief. Wished her to get away from that despicable life and go live in Seoul as he longed for , but too tragic to see how it transpired. i am inexplicably shattered and writing this as tears kept rolling from eyes.
excited in the beginning , but the act goes on , it got dragged a lot and made it less engaging or to care about characters and their arc. The actions sequences have stayed more than it offered any entertainment values and felt like watching someone doing household chores. It it had maintained the same gripping tone of the first 20 mins would be been a great film. Turned out pretty average watch.
Loved the chemistry between the leads , It was super sweet till EP 6 and pretty much they indicated their interest for each other then and it went on till EP 10 . Beyond that it got super boring , earlier episodes about few folks who passed away backstory was interesting enough to care for em, but later episodes felt dragging and mostly because i was more invested in their relationship as the core plot about folks who goes through ML's funeral process . The locations and screen play and camera work was top notch , i fell love with those earlier episodes. I give it a 7/10.
