Well, this was strangely addictive and at the same time just plain awful and ugly! Moreover the produces cand definitely beat GMMTV where the PPL is concerned. This drama was apparently completely sponsored by Subway....a new romantic place for a dinner date! Not!

So this review is just a long rant and a string of notes I jotted down as I watched. Here it goes....

ML has a horrible haircut! And grimacing like he does, he reminds me of Jang Hyuk in Fated To Love You which I absolutely detest! I love the concept of this drama but sometimes little things ruin the viewing experience too much! Another thing that made me drop this drama three times while watching the first episode is awful cinematography and camera image quality: it is too sharp and therefore sterile, very uncomfortable to watch....It looks like something from the 70/80s: ugly! Now on ep 4 and the FL's attitude is getting me more and more annoyed: she is the epitome of a brainless sports professional cliché! Limited vocabulary and immediate violence...and a huge chip on her shoulder!
Episode 6 and the FL is seriously getting on my nerves: self-righteous, stupid, jumping to conclusions, giving those disappointed, hurt, holier than thou looks with trembling lips and unwilling to listen or compromise. Those righteous know it all characters are rage inducing....
I decided not to pay attention to the childish pouty FL and the plot seems to be chugging along smoothly but very very very slowly. One thing is rather amusing: the 45 min merge sometimes seems hours long: they have time to talk, to go on a walk, eat at Subway, walk some more very slowly and then gaze into each other's eyes for a very long time! Time well used! Sometimes they are together for what seems 5min, they argue and poof! the end of the merge mid sentence!
Even though I said I would not pay attention to her, I cannot not notice her biting her lower lip all the time....what an annoying habit!
Ep.15 another extremely annoying character is the prosecutor: sensible to victims' tears has no respect for defense lawyers "How dare you defend someone who is obviously guilty?" and asking a survivor of a crime to apologize for being alive....What a jerk! And of cours the FL is even worse than that: "You are a horrible person for defending alleged criminals but who are really criminals because the tenderhearted prosecutor said sao even though he has no tangible proof!"
OMG that FL is going to be the death of me! Still, in ep 17 she does not want to believe anything the ML says but she believes and trusts EVERYONE else, literally everyone else and particularly the prosecutor who is the same as her: stupid, too emotional and self righteous! And she, with her big round shiny puppy dog eyes, turned up nose and slightly open and trembling lips is the epitome of a bad FL. Why would someone like ML fall for her is beyond comprehension since he is her complete opposite! I guess it's opposites attract even with zero chemistry! Urghhhhhh!

Now it is getting to be seriously messy: ep 18 he tells he she's going to die but didn't she already know that two episodes ago?!?!?! The writers are slowly starting to do whatever: ManMan in present talks to future ML about the FL's death that has not happened yet. A mess!
Could the events be called plotholes if they are illogical? The guy breaks into someone's house and then sits back, rests and lights up a cigarette throwing it away after a couple of puffs and leaving the smell and ashes behind? Maybe he does it on purpose ? The characters are doing more and more stupid things. The worst still being the FL: no one is taking her stupidity crown away!

Ep.21 Now even the ML is biting his lower lip when he's worries! It must be contagious.... And in ep 22: the relationship between brother and sister is a weird one to say the least: there is definitely much more going on there that meets the eye. That much was evident from the start but now they are really showing it to us in case we did not get the hints! I did not really! I noticed the odd behaviour when they were together but incest was not one of the options I was considering (more like gaslighting, control, abuse). Maybe one of them (him?) is adopted?

No, it is actually her!Fake siblings then attempted murder then amnesia! This is looking more and more like a makjang: secrets, fake families, hatred and revenge for obscure reasons. In any case being like siblings or brothers, is not really recommended by this drama: just a recipe for disaster! Fortunately though, our FL is still her stupid gullible self! Glad some things never change?

And of course the last episode? The ML plays the hero and ends up in a coma for months.When he wakes up, months later, his head is still bandaged since it apparently did not suffice, all those MONTHS, in come for the wound to heal over! The FL is doing her saintly wife duties, kindly talking, being nice to everyone and all in all being angelical! I was half expecting a halo above her head, her eyes turned towards heavens and divine light shining around her! Well it almost happened every time she drew back the curtains....
So, of course, perfectly natural and logical and realistic, when he wakes up from his coma, there is nobody around in the hospital, he has his full strength back immediately even though he had been in a coma for months. Therefore he pulls out the IV drip, goes home and on the way does some shopping because he has his wallet in his hospital garb: nobody in the hospital notices that he's missing and of course FL doesn't know anything. Come on, give me a break!
