This was pretty good. I enjoyed it, except for maybe the last three episodes (aside from the very end). They were kind of dragging along.
This entire drama made me very reminiscent to Lie To Me, with similar characters and relationships. There's even an Oh Yoon Joo in that one. The characters and story made me think of a few other dramas, in general. The plot and relationships made me think of Lie To Me; Oh Yoon Joo reminded me of Hye In from My Girlfriend is a Gumiho; and Jung Woo made me think of the director from Heartstrings.
The story for this one was nothing too original, but it was interesting and I liked it. There were weaknesses, of course, and I think a major one is the question of why Lee Seol and Hae Young even end up falling in love. There doesn't seem to be any progression until all of the sudden they love each other, which is especially noticeable from Hae Young's side of the relationship.
Also, that last few episodes were kind of, I don't know, slow. The ending was sweet though, and it was satisfying.
The actors did a pretty good job, I'd say. The two leads were good, and I loved their characters. Most of the characters were likeable, except Oh Yoon Joo, and I still can't really see why Jung Woo ever ends up liking her after all that went down, but, um, okay.
Music wasn't very prominent--it was unfitting at times but otherwise was pretty unnoticeable.
I personally wouldn't rewatch it, except maybe the tense scenes or the cute ones.
Overall it was good. Typical, but it held my attention. Some nitpicks I'll just add here: I was hoping maybe Lee Seol would be more assertive throughout a lot of the time when she was whining over things. Also I found her expressions similar to Kristen Stewart at points. Another thing was the kisses, as they would always have jumpy camera shots.
Either way, if you're bored, this is a good drama to watch.
