watchable but like you don't need to
It was watchable. But not well written. the initial idea was good and reflects contemporary societal issues and ethical debates like gene editing (like with that one doctor from China who went to jail for it) and adoption and its impact on adoptees.The show was action packed and all attempts at depth fell flat to me, the how and why Kim Se Hee came to be felt so predictable and contradictory, especially for a mostly cartoonist villain. She seems like a type B person's idea of a perfectionist and it's so stupid. Nothing against the actress Yeom Jung Ah though.
Dex's character always seems like there's something more to him but the actor fails to deliver, which leaves me wondering what was the use of all of that, what was the use of this character in particular ? Rooting for Dex's acting career though.
Watching the finale made me realize that I don't believe in this premise at all, they've failed to make me believe it. So I would say it was watchable but inconsistent and contradictory.
Special mention to the two Ahyeons, their actresses delivered along Yeom Jung Ah (let's say she was working with a terrible script).
