One of those dramas where literally nothing is missing.
Well, maybe just except one of the leads going missing for at least a year, otherwise nothing is missing: damsel in distress, special forces, a whole 4 minute long shootout between the car and the chopper, ugly Ex, natural disaster, an epidemic, damsel clinging onto a bad guy, hostage situation, hysterical side character, mafia business, cute animals, near death situations, thousand times repeated hand grabbing, when one tries to leave, and 39 unnecessary episodes, because the main plot is not even enough for a movie, let alone whole drama.
Plot: 1,5
_______________________________
★☆☆☆☆ Main idea:
--> It was boring and uninteresting.
_______________________________
★★☆☆☆ Logic:
--> Plot doesn't make much sense. It’s not because the story would have lacked logic, but there’s really not much happening, so there has to be tons of nonsense twists and side plots to keep the leads occupied with something the whole 40 episodes. The main storyline itself is so unoriginal, that even those little nonsense side plots are more interesting than that.

☆☆☆☆☆ Pace:
--> I was bored right from the start.
_______________________________
☆☆☆☆☆ Impression:
--> What was it about again?
_______________________________
☆☆☆☆☆ Skip rate:
--> I skipped most of the story, even main plot wasn't interesting enough to watch it without skipping.
_______________________________
★☆☆☆☆ Annoying factors:
--> The whole story was extremely annoying because of the fact, that it was weak. It lacked a leading thought, so the story bumped from one twist to another with just a vague direction. It wasn’t thrilling, nor dramatic, nor romantic… Simply uninspired to the point of extreme annoyance.
Characters: 5,5
_______________________________
★★★☆☆ Leads:
--> While I pretty liked the temperaments of both main leads, I must also say, they had no chemistry at all and their interactions were pretty boring as well.
The second leads (FL Ex and her friend) were the embodiment of what I don't like about any character and I was pretty annoyed with them.
_______________________________
★★★☆☆ Side characters:
--> On the contrary, I quite liked some of the side characters around main leads – the hospital personal and army comrades. There were also extremely annoying side characters. But what I liked about all of them, they weren’t existing just to complicate things for leads, but they had their own storylines and backgrounds, their own goals to pursue and their own relationships.
_______________________________
★★☆☆☆ Overacting:
--> Annoying. Any intense emotion was expressed either with crying or screaming, or both, backed up with an emotional music theme, that was just about all.
_______________________________
★★☆☆☆ Acting:
--> Didn’t like it. Also (and now I know I am being extremely materialistic), except for the FL I didn’t like any of the other actors looks. Looks aside, what’s more important, they lacked something like a charisma. Maybe it was just my coax from the bad storyline, but all of those actors seemed boring and bad at acting. They weren’t stirring any emotion. They were either crudely pragmatic, or switching into hysteric behavior – I couldn’t feel happiness, nor excitement, nor fear, nor sadness, nor admiration… They were all just flat.
_______________________________
★★★☆☆ Annoyance level:
--> As mentioned, I was annoyed with a secondary couple. Female clinging onto a male, who not just had zero interest in her, but was also using her to his advantage. Male clinging onto FL, who not only had zero interest in him, but also wasn’t in contact with him for several years and had a new life already, but for some funny reason he was still convinced she has to fall for him eventually. On top of that he was constantly interfering with her life in a very inappropriate way, and I couldn’t see any logic for his obsession with her other than being the annoying character in the drama existing just to make things difficult for the leads.
Background: 7

★★☆☆☆ Soundtrack:
--> Didn't notice any particular song, it was neutral. I only noticed the music when there was a moment, that was supposed to be intense, because there was nothing else about the scene to catch my attention except for the music (pretty sad, in a good drama, when an intense moment is happening, I am usually so immersed at the scene I don’t even notice, there is some supporting music, because the scene and acting are too interesting to pay attention to anything else… can’t happen in this drama though).

★★★★☆ Visuals (camera, scenery, visual effects, ...):
--> Liked it.

★★★☆☆ Wardrobe (costumes, hairstyles, makeup, ...):
--> Average.
Rewatch value: 1,5
I assess this value based on impression, skip rate, annoyance level and overall preference.
Final verdict: 3
Garbage. Do not watch it, not worth it.
