This was confusing and at times didn't even give enough cues about passage of time. The timeline was obviously rushed. With only four episodes to capture the story they could have resolved some of the confusion just by using more time markers. They used a few, using one every time there was a larger leap of time would have made more sense than just leaving audiences to guess at how long the romance elements were actually taking to unfold.

And you can tell a long story in short form without making things ambiguous or confusing. If I have to read the book to decipher what is going on in the drama, then the drama is a fail. No matter how much story you pack into a series, there are tools for telling it well so passage of time and shifts of emotional attachment are clear. Movies do it all the time in less than 2 hours. There is no reason that with 4 hours to tell this story they couldn't have done a more coherent job.

The music editing was also awful. Though the other production values were nice.

But I did love the characters, especially Mark. He was really spicy and his defensive attitude was well performed. Vee was portrayed effectively for the most part as well. And I feel the actors had a compatible chemistry. Too bad the story was so damn all over the place. There was no excuse for this level of confusion and it was a waste of the on screen talent.
