Ignore any review posted by someone who did not watch the whole drama.
Ignore every single review from anyone who did not watch all 12 episodes--especially those that only watched the first 4 before bailing out. Their reviews are disingenuous at best. (Two pet peeves of mine: Posting reviews before a drama has even ended, and reviews from people that dropped it after only a few episodes.)
This is a very, very good romance drama. It starts out very harsh. The two star-crossed lovers at the center of this story are not well-matched. They come from different worlds, and the FL is oblivious to it. Heartache and tragedy ensue, and I think it is the abruptness of it and the actions of the two lead characters that caused most of the negative reviews from the people that dropped this drama. Unfortunately (for them), they dropped it too soon because only then does the real story begin, and it is a rewarding journey.
The cast is absolutely terrific, and the chemistry between the two leads is amazing. You feel the two lead character's love, longing, and pain. There are several other relationships peripheral to the romance that are very engaging too: The ML's relationship with his boss, the FL's relationship with her sister and the ML's parents, the Chaos family. All of these grow richer as they propel the story along. I also enjoyed the two guest roles: In something completely different, Go Bo Gyeol was almost unrecognizable as the fallen idol, and Uhm Jung Hwa was delightfully over the top as editor in chief. Finally, at 12 episodes, I thought the length was perfect. Very good drama, well done.
