What was this plot?
I was really excited for this show because I love some of the works from both actors but actually what was this plot?
It started pretty solid in the first few episodes but I think the lack of chemistry and the constant micro issues that were resolved within a matter of a few scenes were what had me rate this drama only 5.5.
They overdid the "baby boss" concept for Juyeon to the point I literally viewed him as this 15 year old student even in the present time, which kind of ruined the whole "responsible young ceo with an older gf" concept.
The second thing that pissed me off is that one of the main plot points in this show is the confession scene, and the "trauma" that resulted for the both of them from that. Picking this as the main clashing issue between the characters was really weird because, call me shallow, but this wasn't that deep. So when they used this trauma as the reason for their break up i found it so rediculous I almost stopped watching.
Didn't the both of them fall for the present , grown up version of themselves? I found it very weird that Sujeong took it so serious to break up because of this. I get that she wanted someone to rely on, which she didn't really have her whole life but come on...by that point in time Juyeon was able to fulfill that conditon already.
And lastly, what I mentioned in the beginning, is that the last half of this drama was full of conflicts that seemed serious but they solved by just talking a bit in the same episode. That took the whole tension and seriousness away, I found that pretty disappointing. Sad, because I usually like the actors projects and this one just wasn't it.
