Let me tell you this: I don't really understand how this drama is so well rated.
I don't usually write reviews but this drama has being such a disappointment that I want to spare you the pain and boredom of watching this. Along with mafia K-Dramas, my favorite genre is drama/romantic, but this drama is just so incomplete and it lacks argument and emotions.
I'm not going to lie, the 7-8 first episodes are very good, the plot is well thought, the photography and the OST are fantastic -it actually reminded me a bit of Goblin (a true masterpiece), the characters are interesting and it looks like is going to be a love-triangle with heartbreaking moments, but non of that happens... Let me explain:
Eventually the whole story of the trauma because "we were in an accident together 10 years ago gets worn out", is just not enough to keep the rhythm through 16 episodes each one more than 1 hour long, so the script stops making sense and a loop of "angry female lead and stubborn bad guy who is not that bad eventually, and ends up only needing love from an extraordinary girl who underestimate herself but everyone falls in love with her, but they're always fighting because they don't want to hurt each other" is just such a cliché that we got over it already in the Twilight movies... And with this the rest of the characters don't really fit in the story; the story of the manga drawer best friend in a wheel chair it's absolutely pointless and irrelevant, the chief architect ends up being just insipid guy with typical inner demons and an undeveloped background.
On the other hand I just can't stand the female lead, Won Jin Ah, she's so damn irritating, the character is just plain dumb and she's suffering all the time with any type of justification. The chemistry between Jun Ho and her was non existence, the kisses were chaster than usual, and she has the cringiest cry. Honestly the K-drama would have been a lot better if the female lead was different.
The worst part is probably towards the end where they end up making up a desease for the male character to justify three more episodes, but at this point I was just like, whatever I don't care if he lives or die.
The only good thing is obviously Jun Ho who is wonderful, I'm surprised at how good he is at acting, Kim Kong Hyun who is adorable and so soft and convincing in his acting, and the Madame Yoon Se Ah.
This is by far one of the worst K-Dramas I have ever watched and I don't really understand how I didn't drop it, so if you're planning to watch it have it mind that IS NOT THIS GOOD and if you love dramas with a lot of emotions and you enjoy suffering with the terrible lives of the characters and you like a good session of ugly crying and sobbing THIS IS NOT YOUR CHOICE. Seriously, go watch Goblin, Age of Youth, Incomplete Life or Moon Lovers instead, even Prison Playbook that it's a black comedy has more emotion.
