The first part of this drama was lovely. I thought the characters were well fleshed out and the concept was interesting. Also, Lee Min Ki made my heart flutter with his unique deadpan charm that I love so much. However, after the couple gets together halfway through, there is not much left but filler and fluff. And the fluff isn't even good fluff. It is boring, predictable, repetitive, cringe-y fluff. Like, we get it. They love each other but that's just not interesting enough to keep me interested for eight more episodes. The one conflict towards the end just made the FL seem fickle and immature. Like come on, toughen up and face the problem head-on instead of living up to the rumors and running away, this time for real. That was IMO pretty poorly written.

Couples getting together early in the drama need not be a disaster. It has been done successfully in many other dramas, but this one just failed to deliver writing-wise. I actually ended up skipping through a lot of the main couple's scenes in the second half because it was just them playing cards, jogging, saying I love you. Like okay. Can't you even give us something interesting in which to set all that fluff? The second couple was more interesting in the second half but not that interesting to make it worthwhile.

The main concept of the FL changing faces was IMO also not utilized properly. It all felt like a poorly patched together and thus ill-fitting mishmash of heavy drama suddenly shifting to unfunny comedy (comprised mainly of one character hitting another) suddenly shifting to tasteless and boring fluff. Most importantly, the second half just did not make me feel anything at all. It was like an empty void filled with senseless stuff. This would have worked better if they had ended it at episode 8. There just was nothing much left after that to hold the drama up.
