PARK BO YOUNG is overrated
There are some things that have always frustrated me about this actress . Y does she talk like a little girl when she’s miji. Even the younger version of the actress who is an actual high school girl did not portray it or talk like that. The character brief was basically that she is more open and outgoing than her twin . Which is how the younger version portrayed it . Meanwhile park bo young’s default for this brief is to switch talking like a little girl and pout. Like every other character she’s portrayed in this beat (strong women do bong soon ) . Coming to mirae’s the portrayal here is pretty much what she has done in her previous two shows . (daily dose of sunshine ) Don’t even get me started on the dumb choices these characters make . Sends her twin sister to take her place in the office with zero information on the important stuff . Some of the plot points seem to be clearly driven by the fact that they can’t have both mirae and miji in the same scene due to logistics . I can go on and on about the things that bug me about this show . Jinyoung is the only saving factorWas this review helpful to you?
Kim eun sook’s poorest screenplay
It’s really disappointing watching actors like Kim woo bin and Suzy bring their A game to a show that was so badly written that even surpasses shows like king the land. What explanation is there that this pairing who had amazing chemistry in their previous show, started to struggle in this show around ep 4 itself . The actors also look like they are really comfortable with each other too and both of them are seasoned actors at this stage in their career. They did try their best but there is only so much you can do when the script is this horrible . The story and characters are all over the place . Some gags like the genie being super goofy and switching to ruthless or Suzy bashing him up all the time looked ridiculous after a point. Apart from some high points towards the end like the backstory and Suzy’s final arc everything else is just filler which could have all been wrapped up in 8 episodes instead of 13 . The angel character made zero sense and had zero contribution to the overall storyline. To top it off they got a terrific actress like Ahn eun Jin and gave her little to nothing to do. Don’t get me wrong . I love Kim eun sook’s work . I have watched shows like king eternal monarch several times (which has so many plot holes). But this show is so bad . And I haven’t even touched upon the cultural in appropriations. Please at least do better by the actors and the crew who have put their faith in youWas this review helpful to you?
