Great start, but it lost me along the way
At first, I was actually really enjoying this drama. I gave it a 6 at first because I thought it was getting good, and I really liked the female lead and male lead. Honestly, their acting and the actors themselves were probably the biggest reason I continued watching. If it wasn’t for them, I don’t think I would’ve finished it.
But as the drama continued, it started becoming way too all over the place for me. There were so many unnecessary scenes and things happening that I honestly started getting confused about where the story was even going. By the time I got closer to the end, I was just ready for it to be over.
The aunt also really started getting on my nerves. The actress did a good job with what she was given, but I just didn’t understand why it took the female lead so long to actually deal with her. I understand that she had to be careful because of the shaman/doctor who was secretly working with the aunt, but even with that, I feel like the female lead had way more resources and people behind her. She had opportunities to make a decisive move, but instead so much time was spent on hiding, putting on a facade, strategizing behind the scenes, and dragging the conflict out.
That’s what really bothered me. It felt like the story was deliberately making things more complicated than they needed to be just to prolong the plot. The female lead was capable, so there were many moments where I was literally thinking, “Girl, you could’ve ended this already.” 😭
And with the male lead, I also felt like a lot of the problems between him and the female lead could’ve been avoided if he had just been honest with her about who he was. I understand that the secrecy was supposed to create suspense and conflict, but after a while it just felt unnecessary.
I also wasn’t really satisfied with the ending. After everything that happened, I expected more of a payoff. Instead, when I reached episode 24, I was basically sitting there like, “That’s it?” 😭
Overall, I don’t think it was horrible, because I genuinely liked the leads and thought they did a good job. But the story became too messy, dragged out, and unnecessarily complicated for me. The beginning had me interested, but unfortunately the further I got, the more I just wanted it to end.
5/10 mainly because of the leads.
