Makers should've stuck to the central themes properly

This show started out pretty strong, the introduction to everything was great, around episode 12 or so, the makers got confused because they tried to do a lot at once, and it all got tangled and didn't make a lot of sense. The show tried to be a good blend of emotional connection, intrigue, mystery, romance, family, comedy, etc. But it felt like the makers lost the plot halfway through and added random elements without any explanation. Overall it felt quite rushed and senseless.
It is not a perfect drama by any means, I just think the makers should have focused a little bit more on the story so that there could have been some structure and at times the leads' relationship felt a little fake, the relationship felt a little rushed to me but their chemistry made up for it. Had there been more focus on the characters and less on the all sorts of useless things in the story this could've been a 10/10 for me.
I rate a drama based on the entertainment it gives me, while being so senseless at times, it managed to keep me hooked and this is the first drama I have watched in a while after a slump so it does hold a bit of an emotional value to me. The only time when I felt like wtf is going on was in episode 15. The filmography was beautiful, the acting was pretty good, chemistry was there, despite it feeling a little rushed, the romance was good.
Go in with no expectations and you'll likely enjoy it!
