I don't need to be fast-forwarding through most of a 16-episode show just so the actors get paid more. They know how much they will be getting paid; it's their option to take the job or not. Shows don't normally suddenly have less episodes than expected, except if it is doing really poorly and they want to cut their losses. Don't get me wrong, if it's written really well, I'm all about watching 16 episodes, it gives them a chance to go into more detail.

Good point.

I understand dramatic license, but with a medical background, I struggle with inaccuracies. When the actors are doing things medically incorrect, or if something happens and I immediately say, "Come on, that would NEVER happen!", it takes me out of the show.

However, there are a lot of 16 episode shows that have no reason to be 16 episodes. I think if the story is well-told and cohesive without a cliffhanger (planning for season 2), eight episodes is fine. IMHO.

Because, for better or worse, my overall rating is for my enjoyment/appreciation of the show. I'm not a drama critic; I'm just a viewer. I can watch a show and objectively observe that the acting was good, but I hate the show. For me, there were just too many unlikeable characters, and implausible actions by the characters. The rating is more for me, to help me remember what I watched and why I did (or didn't) like it.

For me, it's his ears.

Love the actors, but not sure about their chemistry together. And I hope it's different than OBS, because I'm the one person in the entire world that didn't like it. That said, OF COURSE I'm tuning in!

I have lost count of the number of times I have been disappointed in the ending of a K-drama. I'm starting to think that they put apprentice writers on the final episode.

Thank you for the information. I wish it had an infidelity tag. I avoid those shows like the plague.

Umm...what the heck are you talking about?!?

Me too!

The picture of her in the classroom, what is with everyone wearing plaid shirts? Very distracting.

I'll watch when more are released. I love the actors, and I'm watching to see if Eun Woo's expression changes.

I really liked your review. I didn't like this drama at all. When I see clips for the show (because they are only going to show the best ones), I think that maybe I was too harsh in my review of it, but no, it just wasn't for me.

The first review of this that actually sounds like all the clips show. He's mean, she stares a lot with her sad doe eyes.

I love the actors in this one, but I have a hard time with sad endings, and some of the other reviews intimated that some of the behaviors were somewhat toxic. I liked your review.

Were you thinking of Queen Woo? I was, until I re-read it.

What the absolute heck!?!?!?!

I'll be interested in your review once it's completed. As history has shown, shows that start out well often take a nosedive. For me, he just looks mad/mean all the time, and through all the clips I've seen, she has had only one expression. I like her as an actress and am hoping for more once I watch it.
