After dozens of k-dramas watched, I know that a lot of them could be better than what they actually are. This is one of those brilliant shows, but pity for the show itself. Nothing to say about the cast: well sorted and brilliant, with a shiny Kim Ji-won. However the story is mediocre, and despite the effort of actresses and actors, it never took off completely, laying on a flat bed made of unexpressed things. But still, if this premise would have been maintained all along the show, in the end it could lead also to a 8/10, since the hilarious moments were several and really funny. What I could not stand for sure is the sexism which permeates the show. As a man I felt uncomfortable watching all these damsel-in-distress moments, as some lines which were surprisingly told by the leads, who expectadly should be just open minded and far away from that Joseon-like way to see a woman. In addition to this, the lack of concreteness led to not feel well compelled into the story, and even the (actually few, but potentially valid) dramatic moments left me not moved.
This was disappointing. Pity, because as said the comic moments were really among the most hilarious ever seen.
