Great start but lost its momentum and ended flat.

1/ STORY:
A young rogue not so upright prosecutor is taken for a young heiress and ends living her life while trying to sort out her real identity and the secrets of her new family. The synopsis is a chance for a lot of fun and an interesting story. The fun was there but the story was rather tasteless after the mysteries are set up and things are explained one after the other. Because of the way the events are presented. Too much chit chatting and telling to each other the facts from the past just defuse the suspense. Also towards the end, all these flash backs 14 years agos or a few hours ago did not help. Same with all these USB flash drive arriving as if by chance... The romance was so so. It is credible enough for people their age and status but it is nothing great. Less sparkling than the story of their younger counterparts which is not even a romance.

2/ CHARACTERS:
- The drama is based on the FL and everything depended on the quality of her character. She was fun and endearing with a weird crazy but funny personality. But sometime it was kind of always the same thing and it made her look a bit "not realistic".
- ML is fun in the beginning but he soon becomes a bland sidekick. I kind of found him boring.
- Other key character: the main villain. Very smart and scheming in the beginning, the character turns reckless and grotesque always taunting people by running its mouth but doing mistakes after mistakes. The way the character is taken down is too easy and predictable.
- Some characters do not have a proper development: coward husband, younger sister, kid of the daughter in law.
- Other characters have an unexpected and convoluted development for me: the young prosecutor, Bad uncle CEO of Hanju, Ms Kim, Main villain's sidekick, real Kang Mi Na.

3/ OST: Good enough

4/ REWATCH VALUE:
Some fun scenes of the early episodes are good for rewatch but the way the story unfold after the set up of the plot spoiled the quality to the point it is not rewatchable for me.

5/OVERAL: 8/10. Not a bad drama but not a memorable one either. The romance is lacklustre and the main plot is bland because of wrong development of the characters. Not enough snappy writting for the story to be really entertaining.
