Surprisingly boring

I've heard good reviews prior to watching this show and maybe I had my expectations too high. However, this drama disappointed me. If you want a better version of it the Japanese one is far more superior!! Also there is this troupe that I hate with passion FL a young girl whos far inferior than the smart ml and that's I portrayed as a strong female but actually is just a follower to older male lead. To be honest big reason why I didn't like it is because I watched the jap one first and seeing this it's such a crappy knock off
I want back the many hours I spent watching this
So would I recommend this to anyone no! Very overrated
