It's hard to say there is anything special about this drama. It is slow, self-indulgent and abounds in characters that are vaguely impossible understand. Their motivations, selfish or otherwise, become boring after a few episodes in. Recommend only if you like the actors, but even that may not suffice. My favorite roles were bit characters with just a tiny hint of comic relief. As for the main leads, I could not care one way or another if they ever got together or not.
