I genuinely don't know what I was expecting from this drama, but it definitely wasn't whatever I ended up watching. The plot was honestly my biggest problem. I kept waiting for something to happen that would make me understand why people love this drama so much, but I just never got there. Every time I thought, “Okay, maybe THIS is where it gets interesting,” I would end up feeling the exact same way five minutes later.
And don't even get me started on all the drama between the characters. I understand that misunderstandings, family problems, jealousy, and complicated relationships are supposed to create tension, but at some point I was just TIRED. Instead of sitting there thinking, “OMG WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT?!”, I was more like, “Okay... so when is this going to be over?” There were so many situations where I just couldn't connect with what the characters were doing, and that made it really hard for me to care about the outcome.
The romance also didn't really save it for me. I wanted to like the main couple, especially because the actors had the potential to make the relationship work, but the story itself kept getting in the way. There were moments where I could see what they were trying to do, but it just wasn't giving me the emotional reaction I wanted. I wasn't sitting there kicking my feet or screaming at the screen. I was sitting there staring at the screen like .
And honestly, the cast was the ONLY thing keeping this from being lower than a 5/10. Because the cast??? HELLO??? There are SO many good actors in this drama. They were doing their absolute best with what they were given, and I genuinely think they deserved a better plot. There were characters I liked simply because of the actor playing them, even when the storyline itself wasn't doing them any favors.
That's probably the most frustrating part for me. The drama had a REALLY good cast and so much potential, but the plot just wasn't it. I kept thinking about how much better this could have been if the story had been stronger and some of the unnecessary drama had been cut down. Maybe this drama was just not made for me. I can understand why people enjoyed it, especially if you like this type of old-school rich-family romance and all the chaos that comes with it. But for me? Nope.
Would I watch it again?
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
The cast gets the credit, but the plot lost me somewhere along the way.
