Somewhat frustrating

First things first : If you love romance, I think this drama is worth your time. It was sweet and I liked both the ML and FL as well as the secondary love story. I think the chemistry between the characters were very believable and there was 5% more skinship than in most kdrama's. So, all in all this could have easily been a 10 for me.

Now for the rant.

1. The ML
I adored the ML in the first episode and never saw that version of him again. Was he a good romantic lead? Mostly. But I can't help but feel a little disappointed in what was lost.

The ML also made some very illogical decisions in spite of being a genius. His actions and decisions was often the opposite of what any normal person would do. It was frustrating and made no sense.

2. The story line
There were loose ends galore in this story. Ironically the least evil person in the story was punished and the truly evil people just walked away. We are expected to be okay with this? Having horrible people walk around freely and without facing the consequences of their crimes was a truly ridiculous decision made by the writers. Why?

It also feels like the writers wrote themselves into a corner and then decided "Screw it" and just jumped to the next scene without even giving the appearance of logic. You know soap operas end with someone being stabbed and then the next episode they miraculously weren't stabbed somehow? It was like that.

I don't watch kdramas thinking they will change my life and I don't expect (or want) perfect logic and realism. In this story it just seemed a bit worse than usual.

In conclusion, I don't feel cheated out of 16 hours of my life. I'm not mad that I watched it and I enjoyed it despite it's flaws. I did however enjoy the first three quarters of the first episode more than the 15.25 episodes that followed.
