Mixed bag.
The good:I liked the overall story although it is quite dark and not what I was expecting. Go Youn Jung is absolutely gorgeous, she plays the role so well. Overall casting is also very good. Scenery shots are great, try to watch on big screen with 4k.
The bad:
Imho :Ju Ho Jin is not a very likeable character. Even though he knows how fragile and vulnerable she is, he acts childish and egocentric. I get that he's not ready in the beginning, but at the end of episode 6, I was like wth. Knowing her problems and past well, he acted like a jerk imho. He is written completely inconsistent. Cha Mu Hui lays out her heart and treats her bad. Hiro is the much more likeable character. The whole part felt like they need to bring drama for no reason.
The ugly:
2nd pairing had the better love story imho. Misunderstandings were not forced and cleared up quickly. Like them a lot.
Overall: I would have dropped it after EP6, if it weren't for Go Youn Jung. Her acting and beauty kept me going. Otherwise there are so many better KDramas out there that I can't really recommend it. With that cast and great basic story, it was a wasted opportunity.
