My Name is very predictable. What you think will happen after episode 1 will most likely actually happen. That doesn’t make the show any less entertaining, though. It still managed to surprise me once or twice, and even though it lost me a little towards the end, I still enjoyed the show for what it is: a very fulfilling revenge story.
Han So-hee acts her ass off, and the anger and sadness in her portrayal of Yoon Ji-woo feels very convincing. The show also has a great, memorable soundtrack that really adds a lot to the experience, but gets a tiny bit repetitive towards the end. At only 8 episodes, each around 50 minutes long, My Name is on the shorter side as far as K-Dramas go, but for this story, that’s a good thing. It’s just as long as it should be. Any longer would’ve just made it feel like a drag.
