So bad I thought an American had written the show
The idea wasn't bad, but the execution was terrible. The FL was completely unlikeable. Her character was basically the best martial arts fighter since bruce lee, the best driver, the best lawyer, the best everything ever. It got old very quickly. She was just plain obnoxious in how she played this part. The FL in Backstreet Rookie is a great example on how to play such a part while still being charming and fun. And the constant reminders thrown in our face in this show about how she could pump and dump as many guys as possible was neither charming nor cute - it was just plain gross.As someone who has suffered through years of terrible TV in America, I was struck by how much this seemed to have been made over here. The nonstop lectures about and references to the patriarchy, misogyny, alternative sexual lifestyles and other aspects of 'The Message' were simply too much. If I wanted to see that cultural trash I would keep watching the garbage made over here. I watch Korean shows because they usually focus strictly on telling good stories - but not this one. Painting every single person in a group (ie all men are misogynistic pigs) is discriminatory and a huge sign of lazy, low talent writing.
Like I said, the idea has merit and in the hands of a good writer it could have been made into something worth watching. But not this try.
