Save Yourself

First off, i am a fan of all 3 actors. The story right from the start was intriguing, a detective and his lover, and a serial killer that falls in love with the detective's lover. Tragic entails, and all 3 figures are reincarnated into present lives with new identities, but i still bound together by ill-fate. The gist of the story sounds promising, and the visual effects of the highlight reel was enough to draw me in ...

The story starts of painting the detective (LSH) & his lover (JSY) as one of eternal love and JKY as the "serial killer". Series of misunderstanding causes all 3 to die at the episode 2, and reincarnate into their new forms. For the first 10 episodes, the story was going for JSY x LSH's character as the main pairing, and JKY being a psychopath with murderous intentions, especially towards LSH's character because of his love for JSY's character (in both lives). Somehow, their production team had an internal dispute/ feud and the writers had changed. And lol they decided to switch the pairing to JSY X JKY right at the last episode. I am not sure if it's the directing and writing, but it made JSY drew alot of hate because she was being seen as a two timer because he was obviously attrached to LSH's character, but is unable to ignore JKY's pitiful character. And sorry, the mystery part and revenge sublines were kinda underdeveloped and seems like the writer suddenly woke up and rmb there were these subplots only in the second half of the show.

All in all, other than the disappointing loveline and direction of the entire plot (which had so much potential), i don't see any motivation for anyone to pick up this drama. Probably the only saving grace was LSH face + abs (LOL) and his acting, same goes with JKY. Oh the OST is good by the way, just stick to listening to it and never start on this drama. Save you 16 hours of your life. Still confused with this drama til date and i am sure alot of you here can relate with me :)
