oh boy the reviews are attrocious, and while I accept not everyone is going to like everything, I get the sense that people are nit picking over everything. In the beginning I felt the drama was too overly orchestrated. It felt stilted and the way IU was acting her character was such a turn off. But there has been so much development especially for her. The baddies are coming out of the woodwork amd the budget spend clearly has been impressive. I came here to defend this drama because I am tired of dramas never being able to please anyone these days. The pulling apart is equally present on all the pages of the top dramas right now. So what if you’ve seen it before. So what if it doesn’t feel original (which actually is this drama’s biggest plus). Grow up. They are just dramas at the end of the day. Stop analyzing every little detail. Stop over expecting. Part of the problem is the actors and the hype for these shows leave people with higher expectations than a show can deliver. You bet I’ve gone back and rewatched some of these actors other shows that were 10/10 initially because it was unexpected, came out of nowhere. They had nothing to prove, and they aren’t as great multiple times later. It’s the way it is.

Enjoy these shows for what they are, a bit of entertainment, and stop expecting them to be something they never can be. Deal with your own expectations first and calm down.

Have thoroughly enjoyed this as it’s progressed and sad it’s almost over.
