This drama has as many upsides as it does downsides, I'll discuss both of them and you can decide for yourself if it's worth a watch (it wasn't, for me). For the record, I might have too high expectations for this drama since it's from the writer of The romance of tiger and rose, which was wonderful.
This drama has a unique premise, which reminds me of Kill me heal me (one of my favs!). However, the "drama" part of this drama (the "scars" mentioned in the synopsis) requires a lot of suspension of disbelief: forget the whole multiple personality disorder as a result of PTSD thing (I'm a psychologist, and I can tell you....this is not what happnes), there are still many things that made me go "huh?" First off, how can a kid have such severe PTSD from an accidental blow & a scar? Why do you need liquid foundation to cover up scars when you have concealers?? And how can a scar not fade about 10 years?? Also that scar looks really easy for plastic surgery to fix if it's so traumatizing for the FL?
Besides the issues above, the characters are both actually very interesting: they're your usual romcom tropes, with fun twists. The ML is a CEO, but he's super stingy (a major source of comedy in the show). The FML is a Candy, but she also has multiple personality disorder, and her other personalities tend to cause her trouble. One of her personality is a badass confident hilariously delusional alpha girl that I wish was the "main" personality. The actor & actress are very cute and charming, but neither of them has enough charisma to fully realize these really interesting characters. The chemistry is also hampered by the fact that later in the episodes, we lose track of the internal-to-the-drama logic of when or why the FL switches personality, and how many she has. When she switches, she becomes very forward, and considers herself the ML's girlfriend. The ML, being the nice sweet guy he is, just goes with it (and later on, as the synopsis indicates, for business gains). Which, depending on how you see it, can be cute, or perplexing.
In any case, this drama could be a cute easy watch; I just wish they handled the story in a more believable way, the directing a bit crisper (many moments drag on 5 beats too long), and the acting a bit more nuanced.
