Wasted potential!! Watch at your own risk

Honestly, I was so excited for this drama, because I heard it was really good. Unfortunately....I did not like it at all.
It had so much potential , but just fell short. The story plot sounded really good so I was excited about it but it wasn't executed to its full potential. I was excited for the fighting scenes but ended up severely disappointed, because I never got any of it. The setup was perfect for each fighting scene, but the actual fighting was ripped away from us. I felt ripped off. The battle scenes are a big part of the plot for the actual drama. The only positive of this drama was the ML. He was so good!! The actor was perfect for this role and played his character perfectly. He's actually one of the reasons why I started watching it. Him and the FL. Although I am a fan of the MFL actress I did not like her character at all. I get hoping I would like her later on in the drama but I did not. One of the main things that bothered me about the leads, was the lack of chemistry. The actors tried, but it was not giving the chemistry that the story needed. I think that's the main reason why I didn't really like this drama...The lack of chemistry between the 2 leads....You can't feel the emotions towards each other as you're supposed to in the story. I feel like I wasted hours of my life hoping that this drama would get better. Which it didn't...sadly.
