The idea was great, but the execution..
More often than not, I find myself starting a new drama with an intriguing concept that initially draws attention and builds anticipation about how the plot will unfold. The pilot and just about two episodes after that delievered questions and wonders, leaving room for the story to grow. However, things took a downturn as it soon devolved into a predictable, simple, typical K-romance.
It’s disappointing that the drama’s description doesn’t quite align with what actually unfolds on screen. Many important questions are left unanswered, and this leads to several unrealistic scenes that ultimately detract from the experience. It bored the hell out of me, but I watched it till end.
It is shame, because it could have been a drama with less romance, more curiosity and true life-lesson driven twists.
Kudos to the actors though, especially to Park Bo Young and the mother Jang Young Nam (who continues to impress me, by far underrated).
