When this K-drama was first released in 2020, I avoided it because I found it incredibly boring knowing who the culprit was from the start. However, four years later, I decided to give it a try as it was on my plan-to-watch list and had such a high rating. To my surprise, it turned out to be a 10/10 for me. The story was well-paced over all 16 episodes, and I could see the growth of the protagonist and his relationship with Cha Ji Won. The actor did an excellent job portraying the character, and the story flowed smoothly. I have nothing but praise for this drama.
Don't get me wrong, but I think this drama should have had fewer episodes because, in the end, it's always the same story. It's a good K-drama, the actors are fantastic, but 16 episodes like this? No, thanks. I'll finish it because it's cute, but I wish there was something new and less predictable. As predictable as the fact that this drama will somehow have a happy ending.
I can't help but feel disappointed that Lee Je Hoon isn't considering any captivating romance roles lately. His talent and charisma make him perfect for bringing heartfelt love stories to life on screen. It's a missed opportunity for his fans, who are eager to see him in a genre where his emotional depth and nuanced performances would truly shine. Here's hoping he reconsiders and graces us with a memorable romantic role soon!
