The Curse of the Rambling Script
I placed spoilers at the end of this review.
This was an interesting series. The script was good, but not great. On the positive, the ending was very satisfying and left no loose ends. On the downside, the main story concept was not always clear and there were some weird components. Some sections felt rushed and introduced things without context at times. There were also some side storylines that were unnecessary. It felt like they needed filler material for a script that could have been a 12-episode series but needed it to be 16 instead. The actors did a great job with their characters. However, I was not a fan of Lee Hong Jo’s coworkers. They were very annoying during most of the series and I skip many of their scenes. I know this will be an unpopular opinion, but I did not see any on-screen romantic chemistry with the two main leads. See the spoiler alert at the end of this review if you want more information. This had beautiful cinematography and special effects.
Random Notes:
Overall, I enjoyed watch it. Although the script had some flaws, it was entertaining and had a great ending.
Why do I love seeing familiar locations used from other series? The bar used in many of the scenes was the same one used in the “Love with Flaws” series.
******Spoiler Alert******
I’m not a fan of love triangles, but the one in this series was well written. However, I still found myself rooting for Lee Hong Jo to end up with Kwon Jae Kyung instead of Jang Shin Yu even though I knew that would not happen. Jang Shin Yu and Lee Hong Jo looked cute together, but I was not seeing any romantic connection with them.
The romantic storyline with Gong Seo Gu and Ma Eun Young was cute but seemed out of place with the rest of the script.
The storyline with Jang Shin Yu’s parents also seemed out of place and was just weird.
