Disappointing Script, Too Many Side Characters & Poor Character Development
Ep1-20 is extremely boring, except for scenes in Germany on Ep20. Leads have very little screen time together, too many unrealistic office scenes - lavish office, huge staff in an early startup. Styling of FL is terrible, all the ugly matronly suits & dresses like old ladies would wear. Too many side characters with developing relationships. Recommend start watching from ep20.
From ep20 to ep31, the lead's relationship moved too fast it felt empty. Still so much screen time were on the side characters, the leads emotional development were not there - those heart-to-heart and life-changing conversations that deepen the relationship were not there for the main leads, ironically the side couple Lillie had some good tough conversations. It's all just fluffy screen romance acting that lacked sexual tension and intensity from 2 intense characters. The chemistry was just too boring. Boom one night stand, Boom saying I love you. Boom moving in. Boom meeting parents. Boom one problem & breaking up moving out. Do they have a Time Machine that can skip ahead ??? Or is this a director's choice or bad screenwriting ??
Ep 30/31 & Ep32 preview - Just when I thought it's safe to keep watching to the end, ep30/31 is changing my mind. FL XJ, the usually logical, kind and thoughtful person would suddenly become so stupid - believing in her ex-boss's lies knowing she's the scheming villain, stealing HT's confidential business plans, secretly signing a deal with HT's competitor to retaliate (stupid move), quitting her “job” & ran away - what ???? She’s the soul of the company and ran away from her own business !
The whole thing makes no sense, and the over-acting screaming fight/break-up scene makes no sense. FL character has been a smart successful engineer, suddenly became a reckless emotional idiot, this character flip doesn't align with the first 20ep. HT is that hot sexy ruthless stone-cold business genius that makes him dangerous and exciting, and he flipped to become a lovesick puppy who compromised everything for XJ . Both characters lost their smarts and edge that would've made a great story.
Dropping this drama.....tired of being bored and the bad script / screenwriter. The great cast couldn't save the show.
