It tried to be too much.
Okay, boy do I have a lot to say about this drama.
The first thing that comes to my mind is how jarring it is to have such a fluffy storyline with Bong-soon and Min-hyuk, then have a super terrifying psycho as a villain. He's a solid villain, loved the acting, but it just ruined the show's tone for me. Why did he have to be there? The show tried to combine too many elements and it just didn't work in the end.
Speaking of "why did he have to be there", the entire plotline with the shit-eating mafia boss was just. Not it. It became annoying, and it was the first time I had to skip scenes from a drama. Totally unnecessary and weird.
I wasn't sold on Bong-soon and Min-hyuk at the beginning, but I grew to like them as the show went on. Gook-do had zero chemistry with Bong-soon and I just found him misogynistic and annoying. Park Bo-young and Park Hyung-sik did excellent jobs though, especially PBY. She was the cutest little bean.
I also loved Kim Won-hae in this, he was hilarious.
I didn't like the ending they had for Min-hyuk. They basically made him like Bong-soon's father, which is not good at all. It was such a good relationship, why'd they have to ruin it in the end?
The OST grew on me but I didn't find myself listening to it after the drama (which I tend to do to ease my post-drama sadness). So unfortunately it does not slap. I haven't tried rewatching it yet, I didn't find myself wanting to. It dragged on for a while when I was watching, though. Very slow.
Overall, it's good but not great. I can see why people like it so much, but maybe some of it just wasn't for me.
(This is just my opinion, no one's obligated to care about it. I just needed to talk about dramas somewhere :')
