Lee Jun Ho revealed that the reason why the plot became repetitive was because of prod team's involvement. They made the writer and the director change the script in order to have someone the audience could hate οn. This is why Pyos felt too bland in the second half, the initial plan was to keep them for the first 6 episodes only but unfortunately, the writer was forced to abandon her vision.
Please let's spread this word in order to direct our complaints to the actual culprit. Having a rookie writer get involved in such an ambiguous project only to force her to change her original plans is beyond cruel. This is why the first part felt well-written and more consistent. If only they had given her the freedom to proceed with the original script...
I absolutely love the chemistry between the characters and their teamwork. I am very pleased to see that they are actually competent. They can be clumsy but they know what they're doing. Cannot wait to see more of them working as team.
The original writer has other works, all highly rated in SK… adaptations to make books and comics work on screen…
Oh, yes, I am aware of that! I just think that the screenwriter did a very good job with adapting the novel. Adaptation can be a hit or miss so I think she handled the material pretty well
It's kinda sad that the drama overlooked Tae Poong's relationship with flowers. During the first episodes, I expected them to be used better, either as a catalyst force for Typhoon Trading's development or in a more symbolic way. After the first half, Tae Poong's relationship with flowers was neglected, which is kinda weird considering they could have been used as an aspect to showcase more of his relationship with his father, since it's what brought them close to each other.
I am not saying that Tae Poong should have given up on his position in favor to picking up his hobby again. He has matured and he's no longer the youthful boy who wanted to share his love for flowers with his father. But they still could have found a better way to incorporate them into the story.
