The drama should be called “The Captive” or “The Patient”... but good chems between ML&FL...

What I like about it:
- The chemistry between ML&FL is good! Eventhough they spent lots of times apart, but when they r together they just clicked... esp in those flashbacks, they look like a cute real couple...
- I like the concept, drama with actions n some romance between the leads... it started good n promising, but then the villains somehow dominated n framed ML again n again, so it went to a dark period... felt like the villains won lots of times n it became so hopeless for the good guys... however around the last third of the show the plot picked up again n it got better... the good guys start to see the light again n became more active... the pace was ok again till the end...

What I dislike:
- The villains got so much screentime! Some eps they even dominated the drama more than the leads... I have nothing against the actors, they r good villains, but I’m watching this drama for the mainleads, so it got annoying when I watched n more than half eps I could only watch the villains... these parts I skipped like a lot...
- The plot went to a dark period where ML got arrested again n again, plus during the captivity ML was so hopeless n only getting tortured, almost no action! Again I watch this for ML, n seeing him like that is just a bit depressing... it’s ok if this period is only for a few eps, but nope, he is a captive for lots of eps...
- near the end the plot got better, but then the last few eps were a bit flat... somehow after all the things have been built up, the unfolding part in the end was just unsatisfying...

This drama got its ups n downs... I don’t think it’s that bad like some say, just don’t have high expectation starting it, then u’ll be ok... honestly I kept watching for the ML n his chems with FL, so make sure u really like them or I don’t think u’ll enjoy this drama... I skipped lots of the villains part, they were just too much! at least it’s a happy ending with some unnecessary weird scenes in the end... I don’t regret watching it though... overall it was an ok watch for me...
