Honestly, this drama had so much potential but sadly it didn’t make it. Where stars land has so many lot holes, to the point where things don’t make sense or add up, plus the portrayal of disabled individuals was a disappointment.

The acting was great, especially for the main actor, I loved how he was able to show how one side of his body was limp. However, I hated how they depict disabled people to be hated by society, not being able to find love or even a job because they were disabled. This drama alienated disabled individuals instead of explaining or trying to educate viewers of how they feel to be isolated and taunted. The whole drama was just showing how the main actor only found love and a job after obtaining support devices instead of showing how others in his life accepted him for being in his condition and that really frustrated me. It didn’t show any support to disabled individuals but rather taunted them even more about how they’ll never be accepted.

The relationship of every single character in this drama was not explored well enough, which made the whole story feel empty. Th background stories aka the building blocks for each character we’re not explained especially things about their parents. The fox bride star restaurant was shown in specific scenes, but not once was there an explanation to show how this linked to the characters apart from them just regularly visiting, or what it had to do with the main actresses father.

The only pro about this drama was how informative it was about how an airport runs and the challenges the staff have to face on a daily basis. Apart from that, I am highly disappointed in this drama and cannot understand what was going through the story director’s head when they made this unsupportive drama.
