One surprise after another

This is a really different genre from the dramas I usually watch, so I was surprised I enjoyed it as much as I did. However, I did have mixed feelings about how this drama ended. Honestly, I think the ending was very fitting and in line with the rest of the drama’s vibe, and I’m glad we didn’t go through with the miracle deus ex machina. On the other hand, though, I’m kind of unsatisfied with the antagonist plotline — President Oh was such a huge part of the beginning and his storyline just sort of dropped off and was left open-ended. I appreciated the more natural, internal obstacles though.

I was also not a huge fan of that epilogue style ending — I felt like some scenes for it like the second ship and Nam’s father could have progressed more naturally within the drama’s regular timeline instead of tacking it on at the end. For the main plot with Anthony + Writer Lee though, I was okay with it and I liked how it was neither tragic nor overly cotton-candy.

Overall though, I still really enjoyed watching this one! Anthony was undoubtedly frustrating at times but he definitely grew on me, and I really liked the main female lead. The ship grew on me as well. A really enjoyable watch nevertheless, and the best part was the way the drama flipped so many cliches on us and yet went ahead with some really common drama tropes, so we never knew what to expect.

I will also say that the OST was much more of a bop than I expected :)
