This drama as a whole, was neither a major letdown, but then again neither was it a fantastic piece of work. I watched, and stuck through it for Kim Rae Won's acting, which never fails to amaze me.

There are already a lot of negative reviews out there for this drama so I won't go and say the obvious about the plot (a complete standstill).

For a drama with so many episodes, you'll expect some development with plot, characters and storyline, however everything was how it started out to be really. Hae Ra and Soo Ho's love story was really the only thing going on in the basically non-existent plot. That and Choi Seo Rin's hatred for the pair. The story started out slow and steady and stayed slow and steady. You get a lot of lovey-dovey scenes between Shin Se Kyung and Kim Rae Won but even then, the whole story itself just didn't really fit around it's own concept.

There wasn't a whole lot of "protecting Hae Ra" going on. Just really confusing scenes on Soo Ho's business with Park Chul Min. There were a lot of obvious flaws in the drama too, so the whole story was like a puzzle piece with vital pieces missing. There were too many characters with no actual role in developing the storyline, too many loose strings at the end of the drama. The whole drama was like the buildup in an orchestra. A really slow buildup, that you'll expect the ending was a lot different and a resounding crash instead of a crescendo. Basically with this drama, you'll have to be prepared to drive up a slowly, ascending mountain. Only to find a steep drop on the other side of it.
