Even Park Seo Jun could not save this drama!

At first, I had high hopes because well, the actors/actresses line up for this drama was quite solid and strong. I never dropped any movie/drama I am watching no matter how mid/cliche it was but this is the first drama I have ever dropped halfway. I guess at the beginning of ep.1 until ep.5 was still ok ok though there were times where viewers would feel certain element is missing but for me personally I just did not like how Park SoDam the heroine/FL screen time was so minimal regardless the drama was already halfway. That was the first thing that I did not like about this drama. Besides, the FL back story too was not elaborated enough to give viewers a much better understanding about her background. We can see what was happening in her life but that was just it. Barely on the surface. Park Bogum's character was nice and kind but damn, his lousy ass family was too much. I also did not like the repeated scenes of Sa Hye Jun's dad who was always mad at him because his son wanted to be an actor and keep making a big deal of it each f-ing time. I get it. Their relationship was not good and Hye Jun was always the sad boy in his family because his parents esp dad did not understand his passion yada yada but man, it gets crazy every time Hye Jun and his dad were fighting. I can say from ep.1-5 that was all it was about. I am not going to comment on their acting because I think it was okay and nothing bothered me much. I tried to give this drama a chance up until ep.8. But nope. Even towards the second half of the drama the plot still has not changed much and the characters growth were not there. This drama even had PSJ as cameo and still could not save it from the disaster.
