Everything was going according to plan until it wasn't
This drama had the right pacing up until the last episode. Now I will spoil things here so please don't read if you want to go in completely blind into this show.
The premise, the characters and twists were so incredibly fun to watch. This was a true binge worthy show, as in I couldn't help butt click next episode from the start.
ML is just impossible not to root for. At the start he's just a good guy, if a bit naive, in a bad situation and you genuinly feel for him and want him and his family to be ok. He actually stays genuinly good just not so gullible anymore. That is just so refreshing to see. It would have been so easy to make him become an evil crimelord but he stayed true to his nature and I loved that. In fact I have no qualms that his ending is not 100% happy.
But the ending of this show was just really rushed. The resolution of all lose ends was presented to us, the audience, in a sort of montage right after everything went wrong and it felt jarring. I wish they had given us a proper resolution of things. Because even if the loose ends were tied up in some way or another, because it's just a series of scenes presented to us, we don't have time to process or feel satisfaction. It was like having this delicious entres and when we were ready for the main course they just shoved it down our throats in like five minutes. It was truly a failure in 'show don't tell'. This was what we were waiting for, for every bad guy to lose and us to saviour it. You made us watch poor ML suffer, get beaten, tortured, drugged, kidnapped, framed and lose the most precious thing to him and you're not going to let us see the motherf responsible people rightfully get their just desserts for more than 2 minutes? Um no. I want to see that happen in slow motion, thanks.
This rating is because of everything that happened before the resolution. The series is good, and I overly enjoyed it. I do not think the ending ruins it. But it could have been another Flower of Evil level sort of series if they had handled the ending better. Just so close it's upsetting they missed the mark by a bit.
Overall this show is so so good and addictive and every character is amazing, but that ending, even if it's positive was not handled properly.
