Enjoyable but with questionable plot-developments
First of all, i had very low expectations before watching this drama. That's where it surprised me. I especially enjoyed the middle of the Drama (Ep. 4-10). I actually thought this drama would turn out to be not my taste or to be bad. But i found myself really invested. At the beginning I thought of it as a feel-good Drama with some comedic elements, which i liked. It still had its meaningful moments. It's great to watch as an in-between Drama or if you're bored.
What i liked:
- Relationship development between the two leads-> I didn't mind the ex coming back because it was obvious that he already liked dong joo. It added a bit of drama to their romance and i was in the mood for it. I liked the romance in this drama up until ep 11. After that, i was somewhat bored (or it's more like that other plotlines bothered me, causing a loss of interest)
-Dong Joo's Father
-That the Drama had some Comedy (but where is the comedy as the episodes passed?)
- Yoo So Ra and Kim Il Sub
Where it went wrong:
- It felt like the tone of the drama changed with the passing of the episodes. I don't know why and it's hard to pinpoint, but it felt different. The following points could have played a part in this change
-Sometimes i did not understand the maleleads choices (Everyone's human, i can see past that)
-Why turn a friend into a bad guy and an enemy? I HATE this trope. Why would someone decide to write this? Make it make sense. If you do write this, please write it properly. Yes, i was surprised but to write a friend-betrayal, just to shock the viewer is not writing at its best. Yes i do sometimes like unnecessary drama in a Kdrama but not this type. It's a matter of taste and this development somehow gives me trust issues.
- Just introducing persons to let them die. The last deaths felt highly fabricated and they left me feeling nothing. Don't overdo it. I did not mind it at the beginning and middle of the drama. But everything felt wrong towards the end.
- The Father's death? NONSENSE. Nonsense if you ask me. Why kill him off? And so late. They wrapped up his death in only one episode. It's still the mainleads father after all, why brush it off so fast? The Writer probably wanted a meaningful death to be Dong Joos last person, but it still rubbed me the wrong way. Even the way he died...
After all these negative points why would i still give it 6.5 Stars (in my rating system = good)? I still enjoyed it the majority of the time and since i had low expectations i was positively surprised. I liked the tone of the drama (even though not towards the end). I had a good time. Can you compare it to the other dramas i watched lately (like D.P)? Of course not.
Not a bad drama. But i can understand if others rate this drama lower than me. It's always a matter of taste. I acknowledge the negative aspects and still enjoyed it more than i thought i would.
