Han Jipyeong was the true star of the show.

This drama was such a waste. It started off so promising but ended up rushed with so many plot holes. The first half was well written, the last few episodes seemed like it came from a very bad fan-fiction. I'm very disappointed with PHR work, to think her past works was so well written and detailed. I'm convinced that there was some behind-the-scene politics that happened in between cause the whole story had a complete turnaround.

If the writer wanted some kind of redemption for the main leads, she should have made the character likable. NDS regressed and had zero growth. He didn't think the letters had some significance but he quotes lines from the letter, held it hostage from Jipyeong and even asked for the plant which HE DID NOT EVEN TAKEN CARED OF. It was such a let down. SDM who was strong and independent became even more blind than her grandmother. She pined for 15 yrs Dosan from the letter yet there was no resolution. Lastly, they made Jipyeong invalidate the letters for damage control. I usually re-watch clips that I like from a show but I'll never do it for this show cause it was a complete fraud. thumbs down.
