Red flags were there all along but the viewers still chose to hype the drama

The low ratings from viewers wasn’t isolated to the poor choice of mentioning the war but the whole finale ep was just difficult to watch—- went all over the place, YYS overacted, CSB wasn’t so convincing (and so with the prior episodes), etc. Several of us hoped that it would end well as it started nicely. Some even went as much as adding it to their top 2024 k-drama list despite still on-going, but admit it, the red flags were there all along. We just chose to ignore them. The production tried, and for that I’m grateful. However, it definitely does not deserve to be a top drama— quality wise. Something hurts in my head whenever I’m reminded of eps 11 and 12. Uggh that was painful to watch.
