Lacks depth, but worth the watch.
I have always been a fan of dramas that have these soft and gentle male leads so this was definitely worth the watch. Would I come back again? A bit doubtful, because I still have to rewatch some of the other dramas that I thought were wonderful. This one just didn't make the mark.
Why? A lot of reasons:
> First, the story was too focused on patriotism and not on the people. They needed to balance it out.
> Romance between the main leads: Started out good and watching the two interact was nice. But that's all it was nice. Even with the underlying issue, it felt as if there were no stakes in the main leads romance. It just did not feel as if it was deep enough.
> The secondary couple were a bit too hasty for my taste but I liked them well enough. The one thing that did bother me was how he screamed at her, I mean sure she does seem a bit immature, but was that really necessary? It became funny when in upcoming scene he called out Wu Si (ML) for shouting at him. That was a comedic scene but the former wasn't but these two scenes stood out to me the most.
> As much as I like Jin Han as a actor, in this drama, his face often had this expression as if he was about to cry.
> The plot was meh. Yeah, that's how i felt watching thing unfold. Even when the FL went on her investigative mission they felt like calm waters to me.
I went in this drama thinking it was going to be action-packed with deep romance theme, but it wasn't. I understand why the ratings are low now.
