An Enjoyable Drama That Unfortunately Lacks
I decided to watch this show to see what Lee Jung-jae would do outside of Squid Game, and I can’t lie when I say I liked it! The unfortunate thing about it is that nothing here really stands out as amazing.
The story is enjoyable, and I liked the Kang Pil-gu sequences as well. You find yourself rooting for these characters and their happy endings. One of the things I disliked was how Jeong-sin was really dismissive and almost clueless a lot of the time. She likes him, but fails to show it a lot of the time.
I think the last few episodes are definitely the strongest. Things become more solidified and you understand what’s really going on. The first half was a bit of a drag. Hyun-jun isn’t the most lovable character out there. But in the end, I think their chemistry works nicely, aswell as the other couple between the CEO and the main lady. I really enjoyed Hyun-jun’s sidekick, Ji-sun, too. He was probably my favorite.
Overall, a nice watch that fails to stick out as anything truly meaningful. No heavy complaints, but not anything to write home about.
