Another reviewer wrote "All the Cliche's In One" and I have to agree! It seems like the scriptwriter threw in all the drama in the beginning and forgot to put in romance scenes, so they just added them into the epilogue.

That being said, the drama wasn't too bad. If this series was a full length drama with more time, I think it would be an interesting watch.. However, as it is, if you can get past some of the scenes or information that gets skipped or skimmed over and just go with the flow, it's actually an interesting drama. But, it's very obvious that the series didn't have enough time to tell everything with all of the skips they had.

The plot is actually very interesting. A CEO candidate fighting against his family for his place in the company, has trama with people touching him. He has a one night stand with a regular office worker and becomes obsessed with him. He tries to claim the man while also trying to claim his spot within the company.

At a glance, the plot is very dramatic. There is lots of scheming and ploting against each other... But as the series is short, we see lots of the schemes and counter-schemes, but we rarely see the immediate impact of the scheme. We just get told the after effects. Also, because of time restraints, lots of the romance between the men is cut short, especially during the power struggle. All of this isn't bad, as it is still interesting to watch, but it does leave the audience wanting more, especially in the romance department.

The romance between the two male leads comes all at the end, during the epilogue. During the build up and climax, we can see their dynamic and romantic potential, but we don't actually see them falling in love. Lots of that seems to be happening off screen. We see lots of "I will protect you" moments, but little romance. All of that romance comes at the end... And maybe because the first half was so dramatic, once we hit the epilogue and all of the lovey-dovey scenes, it does seem to be a bit draggy. We can't complain since these are romantic scenes, but it does feel draggy.

The series is an "enjoy it once, but don't need to rewatch" type of series. The plot is interesting and the two MLs are good looking with decent acting, but due to all of the skips the scriptwriter needed to make in order to make this into a short series, the plot does leave us with many things to be desired. I really wish we could see those scene that they skimmed past, but sadly there wasn't enough time for it.

I did enjoy watching this drama, but I don't think I will be rewatching it any time soon.
