Is it just me?

This is not going to be a popular view, just feel I can’t be on my own.

I find it difficult to find anything good about this drama. The story is very predictable and two dimensional - sometimes not a problem, but it’s so full of stereotypes that after two episodes, you feel you’ve seen it 1000 times before. The writers might have had a day off. There was too much details and repetition of one event and yet, there is no investment in how the relationship between the two main character developed. The script is full of overtop scenes, which make no sense as the story doesn’t take me on a journey to the deep - you just get thrown there. The characters are predictable and flat.

The acting is the second bad in this drama for me - I suspect there are many fans of the cast judging by the high rating, but I just kept cringing! This is my first drama with Lee Joon Gi and quite frankly, if this is the extend of his acting skills, it would be my last one to. I love Sto Yae Ji to, but for me there was no chemistry between the two. At all. I just felt like the actors just had some free time and fitted this one in as it is an easy one..

Saying that, there are a few names worth mentioning, as for me, they did their best with the material they were given - Yeo Hye Ran, Ahn Nae Sang and Kim Kwang Gyu.. all three excellent actors!

I really gave it a chance 10/16 hoping it will get better, unfortunately, I got more of the same.
