ending left a bad taste

casting: i liked the casting, i think the male and female leads made sense for the characters and very well had the faces of their characters. the younger ML and FL were perfect too!

plot: I won’t deny that this was a great plot and possible storyline - do i wish we saw a more badass side to the female lead? yes, but the story was pretty good until the last couple of episodes.

a. I hated the sudden, very obvious and uncomfortable amount of propaganda that was thrown at us in nowhere.

b. The whole war arc made absolutely no sense and added nothing substantial to the story..like genuinely why did it even exist.

c. It wasn’t in character, i personally feel like the ending was both rush and out of character for the most part 🤷‍♀️

overall: it wasn’t a bad show while i was watching it but the ending left a bad taste. so now whenever i think about it, unfortunately, i remember the absolute shitshow the ending was. I personally haven’t recommended it to anyone which is disappointing because it had all the charm to be a really good kdrama.
