I'll be honest, I was expecting something better, especially because it was the first drama of my beloved Ji Chang Wook after his returning from the enlistments. Turns out, even with all the eye-candy, swoon moments with our main lead and great acting from Chang Wook, I can't bypass the fact that this drama is just... failure, tbh.
I started watching it as soon s it came out. I dragged myself through it to the 12 ep and than, I dropped it. Just recently, I've finished it (thanks to my on-going exams and desperate need to procrastinate) and maybe it's because of long break, but I've enjoy the end much more than the past ten episode.
The thing that turned me off the most at the beginning was very VERY poor editing work. The passes from one scene to another in most cases were too rush, not smooth enough, they were lacking stages that could show for example how the heros came from one place to another, how they react to some situation. Instead it was like: one scene with phone call, clap, another scene in some dfferent place with two people talking. Not much consistance, a lot of whiplash.
Second, the plot - after first episode I was simply bored, the race to catch a bad guy didn't particlary excited me and when whole premise was solved by 13 or 14 episode, the rest plot was being unnecessary drag out to maintain the typical 16 ep duration. And than the end was so rushed and didn't give much needed glimpse of a new life of our main leads that I was just dissapointed, and not really satisfied with the end result.
The acting wasn't really good either. I really like both of the main actors, I thing they skills are really great, but with this drama, I think they couldn't really showcase much of their acting abilities. Plus, the chemeitry was lacking that special spark and thus their relationship on screen wasn't really convincing to me.
