Something was missing and couldn’t say what !!

The drama started off really strong with a unique storyline and great chemistry between the characters, but somewhere around episode 7, I completely lost the plot. Honestly, everything after episode 6 felt like a haphazard mess. By episode 8, I had completely lost interest. I was genuinely sitting there wondering what was even going on.

Jo Hojin kept saying he didn’t want to get involved with Muhee, yet he constantly kept getting into her problems and Mu her’s life. After a while, Jo Hojin stopped feeling like the male lead and started feeling more like Muhee’s romantic interest with no story of his own. I really wanted more depth and individuality from his character.

Muhee, on the other hand, was a very complex character. I had a love-hate relationship with her throughout the drama. There were times when I liked Do Ra Mi more simply because she didn’t come across as pathetic. Watching Muhee beg for love again and again became frustrating after a point. It felt like the same emotional cycle repeating over and over without any real character growth.

The story felt weak and inconsistent to me at times. Muhee clearly needed serious psychological help, and the drama hinted at that in the earlier episodes, but after episode 3 it was almost completely ignored. Her entire career was supposedly on the line, yet later episodes treated the situation so casually that it lost all impact.And Jo Hojin trying to “fix” her problems on his own had me wondering hello sir, are you also a medical expert now?

I also didn’t like the way poor Hiro was used and discarded!! Like do they have to make him fall for Muhee? Dumb af
