Sweet... but wait... that doesn't make sense
What a sweet ending.
This show felt like two (sometimes three) different shows in one. The romance stuff was very cute and our leads definitely had chemistry and it was just fun to watch them interact and fall in love. Then there was the crime/thriller part which I thought was done really well in the beginning parts but really fell off at the end. Then we had the comic relief, the storylines with the high schoolers and the construction guys (which I skipped through majority of the time and the story was still intact), they just felt really irrelevant and they tried so hard to include them.
My issues:
- At one point I thought her mother was an abuser and I didn't second guess it because of how hostile she's been written. So when they revealed that she didn't actually hit her husband (and her friends even thought she hit him) it was brushed over. I would've liked a bit more unpacking as to why we as an audience and why her friends thought she was capable of that.
- Her powers made no sense. She protected her friend from something that was going to hurt her. How was she suppose to know that there was an innocent man on the elevator. It just seemed unfair that she lost her powers for something that was out of her hands. And adding on, how come her children's powers weren't taken away when they punched innocent people?
- I think we could've done with less of the side characters.
- The tonal shifts were weird and off. We went from girls being kidnapped to the leads being all cute to the comic relief. They needed to sit and build on one aspect before moving on to the next.
My favourite:
+ The leads and their chemistry. They felt playful and comfortable with each other which made me believe the very fast progression of their relationship.
+ That one song about love.
+ Mr Ahn's assistant and his facial expressions.
+ The crime/thriller part. The actor who played the bad guy was actually quite good and scary at times (except at the end). He felt like he could've been a suspect from Criminal Minds.
