What?

The word 'What?' constitutes around 80% of the dialogue for our titular heroine. I wondered, at one point, whether there would be a Big Reveal that she's been brain-damaged, or her hearing impaired, during her plastic surgery. But, no, this was just her personality, such as it was. It would be a good drinking game to take a shot every time she said 'What?' but you'd get drunk pretty quickly.

She also remained completely blank-faced through most of her scenes - happy, sad, angry, peaceful - who could tell? Through the botox nothing penetrated.

Jo Woo-ri was convincing as the cliched 2nd female lead - bitchy and conniving - and the young lads playing the male lead(s) were fine, but the character around which the drama was based was badly written and badly acted, irritating and depressing.
