If you like romance dramas with power imbalance in a profressional setting where a much older director falls for a younger, inexperienced female lead of his movie just like Nam Koongmin did in real life with his wife, then go for it. The villains are all forced to be bad and vicious against the pure virginal but overly optimistic dying protagonist. The male lead is a stoic man child who is the stereotypical tortured artist who can't move on from childhood trauma. Everything is forced and artificial with dialogue that doesn't come from real people. It even forces you to hate the second female lead and invalidates her feelings as she was once the younger, inexperienced actress who was rejected by the male lead who just can't love. The drama is just as inauthentic as Namkoong Min's forced lovestagrams with Jeon Yeobeen which is disgraceful as a married man. Jeon Yeobeen is one of the most overhyped and overrated Korean actresses in recent years who is simply not female lead material much less the lead in a melodrama who is supposed to have only months to live.
