Talented Cast let down by direction
Let me start with the fact that the original and its international remakes are excellent. I learned about this story when I first saw the Telugu Language remake. Then I saw the original "Miss Granny" on Netflix. I was expecting the story to do something different and not be a copy-paste with slower pacing, and to be honest, they delivered. But then came how Granny was being portrayed. While I do believe Jung Ji-So is an amazing actor she also can't do much if her character is written as a one-dimensional character. Writers focussed more on side characters than the actual leads. It almost seemed that they were unsure whether they wanted Grandma and the CEO to be together or not. And that indecisiveness carried on even at the end. This show had a lot of potential, but it was ruined by the writer and director's indecisiveness.Positive Points:
1. Cast gave it their all
2. The character Ha-Na was interesting. Wished she had more impact like the original story's grandson.
3. Cinematography was good
4. Jung Ji-So, Kim Hae-Sook, Seo Young-Hee
