When the Heroine Becomes the Villain
*Jang Ok Jung, Living in Love* began beautifully. The first half of the series felt fresh and emotional, with an elegant mix of romance, ambition, and palace intrigue. The production quality is excellent — the costumes, sets, and cinematography are gorgeous — and the OST matches the tone perfectly.
Kim Tae Hee and Yoo Ah In had strong chemistry, and in the beginning, I really liked the female lead. She came across as smart, determined, and sympathetic. However, as the story progressed, her character became less and less likeable, and I found it harder to stay emotionally invested.
By episode 19, I was unfortunately bored and felt the story had lost its initial spark. The pacing slowed down, and the focus shifted in a way that made it difficult to stay engaged.
Will I finish it? No, I don’t think so.
It’s a visually stunning drama with a promising start, but it struggled to keep my interest to the end.
