Actually, I saw many negative comments about this drama, but I have to say this is not the first drama like this, and some of the criticism doesn’t feel fair. At least this drama has some romantic parts. There are many dramas I’ve watched that had no good plot and not even romance. In this drama, there is a storyline.
For me, the problem is the casting. They don’t have good chemistry. Jeng is actually a good actor — even though he doesn’t cry very well, he has very expressive emotions. The problem is with Pat. It’s not the character Pat that is the issue, it’s the actor who plays him. He cannot convey the feelings well. Because of that, sometimes the character Pat comes across as a bit foolish, especially since he treats every guy the same way. That itself isn’t a problem — there are many characters like that — but here, because of the actor, I didn’t like Pat. Throughout the whole drama, I kept thinking that if the actor had been different, the drama could have been much better. Pud actually caught my attention more than Pat.
This made me realize how important casting is. I’m not saying the actor who plays Pat is ugly or anything like that — I don’t watch dramas for looks. I’ve watched dramas with actors who weren’t particularly attractive, but their acting made me fall in love with their characters.
