So much potential--Sad
When a down-on-her-luck, not-quite-divorced lottery winner pleads with a complete stranger—the chaebol grandson—to help her qualify for the housing lottery prize, the FL and ML are launched into a lie-sustaining endeavor that repeats itself for much of the series. The supporting cast supplies detail and occasional momentum but is largely underutilized. The story attempts to build momentum through a contrasting deception involving family and corporate intrigue, but it arrives too little, too late. The ML and FL are charming and share courteous chemistry as they predictably grow closer. Moments of depth and flashes of genuinely strong writing are present but remain unsustained. Sad.
