I really enjoyed Pinocchio, which really surprised me. Something about the drama cover and title always dissuaded me from considering to watch Pinocchio, but I'm so glad I watched it! It reminded me of Healer in plot, specifically the history between older adult characters.
I would have really liked to see more of Dal Po/Ha Myung's brother toward the ending (how his trial turned out, where he is in life now, etc). Personally, and many might not agree with this, but I really understood why Jae Myung did what he did. Yes, it was wrong and it definitely wouldn't have change the past, but when you think of EVERYTHING he and his brother went through because of those people, you can't entirely blame him or want to punish him for making the choice he did. Which is why I really really REALLY wanted to see how his trial turned out because a jury might consider those things, impacting his sentence.
I would have also loved to see more screen time for Yoo Ra and Gyo Dong because I think they were really nice together.
Altogether, a very well thought-out plot and wonderful casting! My mother even got sucked in about halfway through and watched it with me!
