Mediocre plot? You should keep watching though till the end then you decide how it is for you.

Personally the plot and story was beautiful. It's a dark, heavy and sensitive drama with complex and difficult themes and I think they did well with it

The drama is too heavy, dark and sensitive maybe that's why you find it hard to like it. It's a rare and unusual genre on it's own compare to most dramas.

For me, it reasonates so we'll cause this type of things do happen in real life and I was able to connect with the story .

It's a beautiful tragedy

Maybe a little similarity in some scenes and dialogue, but the drama overall context is entirely different from AOS

The drama is a solid 8.5 for me.
I don't pay attention to mdl ratings actually

Don't pay attention to mdl ratings. Watch the drama and judge by yourself.

For me, the drama deserves not lower than 8.5

Indeed that's why rating is low, they are not used to this type of dark and heavy shows so the can't connect to it

The drama deserve not less than 8.5

Wow! It seems we may have different views on the drama but it's okay. I respect yours

Exactly stories like this are rare in kdrama and it's only some people that can connect to it.

It's a masterpiece for me

Probably true still to me the drama deserves not less than an 8.5 rating

LOL it was the dark and heavy theme that drew me in as well

The lowest episode rating so far is 8.9

Wow the episodes ratings opposes the general rating that much?

Hmm, I guess opinions do vary but then it's okay. I respect yours

Exactly! And there's even nothing wrong with that trope. Just because it's not what you are used to doesn't mean it's bad.

The story is so dark, thrilling and heavy and they did it so well.

People are so stereotyped into this romance, comedy type of drama that they forget they are other genre too.

I do give an 8.5 rating for this drama just for the acting, cinematography, pacing and soundtrack alone

Look! The thing is we now live in a time where media literacy is gone, people don't even know how to rate a drama anymore, they watch drama based on emotions, perception of an actor/actress in it, personal expectation of how they want it to be, their type of genre e.t.c and therefore rate dramas according to that. Forgetting that for one to rate a film, there's alot and other things to pay attention to; the directing, the cinematography, the depth of characters, the pacing, the acting, the soundtrack, the storytelling e.t.c. you consider all these factors, sum it up together and get ur rating, that's how to rate a drama.

I hardly consider site ratings cause of this cause people dont rate dramas anymore as it should be, what they do is expect the show to be however they want it to be. Like imagine someone wrote 'the drama is a dissapointment because it had a sad ending like wtf'

This drama's impeccable directing, pacing, cinematography, soundtrack and acting alone deserves not less than an 8.5 rating

Bro! It seems you actually don't like the actress acting in general, maybe not your type of acting some thing like that because if there's anything to note of Jo boah in this drama is that she really outdid herself in acting.

Watch again while paying much attention. Seems you miss some details
