A Case of a Drama Being Overhyped

I'm not going to write a full review I'm just going to include the notes I took whilst watching this title over the course of a few weeks. I will say I thought this was really great, especially when they got experience life in South Korea so that we could see both perspectives. I've heard people talk this show up nonstop so I was expecting the ending to be just as good and instead its underwhelming.

So they still live apart but date here and there when she's able to go to Switzerland or wherever it was? And con man actually did die? Dan made it sound to him like we'd be seeing him again when the writers made her say "He went far away." instead of, "He died." but nope. Apparently not. Even at the end with her mom trying to get her married I assumed he'd reappear like "Actually I pulled through!" You know, classic insane kdrama stuff. What a disappointing ending to what was a great show.

Haven't been this underwhelmed by an ending since Boys Over Flowers. Definitely don't see this as a re-watch.

So far this is pretty good. I'm not sure about their chemistry yet but I like her chemistry with the friend group.

Her siblings are the worst. Actually, the POS who scammed her brother sucks even more (minus him scamming the brother - that was good).

And I know it sucks and it's harsh but he's so right. They all RISKED THEIR LIVES to get her out of there and she didn't go. Yes, I know she gave him her blood but still.

Wow the absolute gall of Dan to be like, "Did you know she was South Korean!?" whilst you sneak around looking at South Korean wedding dresses and your mom and you bribe people with smuggled goods. Also, you yourself said you don't love him so why do you care so much!?

I thought con man and his con friend wanted her dead so they could get that money. What's this about becoming his wife to get out? What goal does that serve? They think Captain Ri will stop looking for her then?

Why was it so difficult to get her back home but the bad guy got there right away no problem?

I am SO EXCITED to see his best friend's all down in South Korea!!!

So douchebag guy gets absolutely lit up with bullets and is fine but she maybe catches one stray and is knocking on death's door?

The absolute GALL of the brother and his scheming wife to show up in the hospital.

I know I'm meant to feel bad for mom and love that she prayed for her and all that but I just don't care. "I wanted to die." So you left your kid to die? Come on.

I'm sorry but why are the brother and sister walking free? Did they not get caught trying to hire a hit man in front of an officer?

Okay, I get she loves him but she's about to get EVERYBODY shot at the border.

I'm sorry but THAT is the ending? That's wildly disappointing. And con man did actually die? Like wtf? And these two continue to live in different countries but hang out every few months in a third country? I'm so underwhelmed. Especially hearing people talk about how amazing this one is.
