ok start, slowly going downhill
I liked the actress in King the land, so when i saw her as a lead in a show i was kinda excited, but the excitement fell after about 3 episodes.
The female lead is portrayed as a hardworking down on her luck poor girl and the male lead is a rich a bit egotistic idol that is out of touch with normal life of people. Thats it, there is no real nuance, apart from one bit where the ML says he was poor until he was like 10 years old and then got scouted, but that pretty much didnt have to be there, at least for me it didnt change his character in any way.
The female lead is such a disappointing pushover throughout the whole show with maybe like 2 or 3 scenes of her actually doing something and standing up for herself. She is also portrayed for a bit as some super strong former high school wrestler, but it then goes unused and spolier, when they get attacked and kidnapped she is completely useless and has to be protected. Only after everything was pretty much over she knocked out another girl. Why even bother showing her effortlessly throwing the male lead in the beginning?
The plot had some potential, but the way it was handled was pretty weak. It was only 10 episodes so at least it didnt waste my time too much. Overall it was neither good nor bad, just kinda there, frustrating at times and at times kinda funny.
Kim Ga Eun was pretty, the acting of the cast was ok, just not much to work with.
