You hit the nail on the head about the second half! I share the exact same opinions that you stated. That is also the reason I ended up rating it an 8.5 instead of a 10.
This was the funniest article I have read in a long time chingu! Awesomely written! You capture the exact torment that I have felt when trying to watch longer dramas. I have made it to 42 ep long drama I think, but those were both 45 min an ep, being as one was Taiwanese and one was Chinese. I also have Empress Ki On Hold and it has been there for months. Atm, I am watching Our Gab Soon, which is 50 eps. However, I am watching while it airs so I have higher hopes for myself. :p
My favorite moment in this drama is when she is drunk and keeps trying to enter her password into his door lock and he just standing there watching her on his security camera going wtf. I was dying so hard!!! :p
