felt very pointless most of the time

the story is not sufficient to hold together a series, and lacks authenticity. their lovestory felt rushed, they just decided they love this person to death, and everyone has to go with it. the acting was good from both their ends, the only good thing in this drama. yes this is fiction but as i was watching i couldn't help but be in disbelief about the insane choices these characters were making or the figurative somersaults the plot kept doing.

the main problem is the lack of connectivity with the audience.

the trials and tribulations of a presidential spokesperson who is pretending to be his half brother's son who also happens to be the next presidential candidate? it doesn't end there, his wife isn't really her, she's her sister who can speak but is forced to not because she has to keep being a step daughter to the ceo of a news channel. and this is the only thing going on in the drama. the attempt at angst felt too forced at times. i don't understand why they kept "torturing" themselves for absolutely no reason at all.

the best drama ever

it's been a while since i saw this and by each passing day i get surer of the fact that no piece of media will ever come close to what my mister has achieved. human emotions are captured so raw in this, and so beautifully too that i could relate with evey single character and their story. deep within i am a monk who wants to give up on materialistic ways of life to stop the competition unfolding around me and i am a disappointed underachiever who is afraid of my potential, or lack of it. i am a lonely woman hung up on her true love and so am i the girl who grew up hating herself. and maybe I won't have a park donghoon to make me see that the world is nothing if I won't let it get to me, but this drama keeps giving me life lessons i want to hear from someone when i have a bad day

good satisfying end

where exactly was the editor in this drama? this would good romance with strong plot but so many unnecessary filler scenes just dampens the real story. of course kudos to the cast, i don't understand the hate nam jihyun gets as she did her best with the character that was given to her. and ji changwook was good too. and maybe the second leads should have been given a chance to move on from each other, but giving them an open ending is also not a bad choice. i just wish tthis drama wasn't this long as at the end all i remember is the time i spent on this than what really happened in it
