Here we go again. Another highly rated/ acclaimed drama that I really struggled to finish. Although the story was compelling, and the acting was good I really felt that it went more than it should, and it really dragged on. I mean episodes 8-16 were really not that much and could have been summed up in 2-3 episodes. Another reason I couldn’t get into it was the FL. She was so irritating. Every time she was on the screen, she never failed to make me cringe and I was just struggling to pay attention. I was really forcing myself not to skip! I mean by the time they had the big twist with the missing child’s real name/identity I honestly did not care, totally lost its momentum.
The only thing that kept me going was the ML lead. He was the strongest asset of this drama and probably the only reason I kept watching. His ability to portray every single character and make them easily distinguishable just by one look is amazing. I mean he was on screen and he made you miss him because you miss another character (I do not know if this makes sense). Ji Sung has the most expressive eyes! No need to scream or shout, every emotion it was just there in his eyes! Although I sometime thought that he was overacting, it wasn’t to the point that made me want to turn it off.
As mentioned above the FL was the weakest part of the show. Honestly, her character almost made me want to drop this!
She was too immature and childish and in no way professional and definitely not qualified to be a psychiatrist. Like worst psychiatrist ever! Totally unequip to help anyone! For the life of me I cannot understand how 2 of the Mls personalities were attracted to her (even with the past connection)! I really felt she was annoying, and I did not care for her character at all. I think this is the actress fault. I really felt she is a good actress, those rare moments when she was composed and acted like a normal person, she was quite good, but all that shouting and loud crying and trying to act all cute, really made me cringe. They should stop giving her or she should stop king these types of roles. She cannot pull them off! She was sooo overacting using every muscle in her face. This is the second drama of hers I have seen. In She was beautiful, she acted the exact same way and I also thought that her character was annoying & childish so it must be something more there than the writing.
Also, the chemistry between the 2 also left a lot to be desired. I wasn’t sold on them as a couple. Ji Sung as Yo Na had more chemistry with Park Seo Joon that the 2 Leads.
