Honestly this Is Boring

The drama received great reviews, so I decided to give it a chance, only to discover that it was quite boring, and getting through it was tedious. There were just too many uninteresting political storylines that really didn't pay off. While I've enjoyed political dramas and consider myself a fan of the genre, this particular drama simply fell flat for me. I believe the best rating I can give it is a 6.5/10, although I feel that a lower rating might be more appropriate.

The ending just felt out of place like the antagonist gave up, and we never really saw what clearly took him down. The chemistry between the main characters (ML and FL) was okay at best, and the romantic scenes didn't stand out. Furthermore, oftentimes, the story progressed leaving multiple loose ends with no tie-ins. For example, there was a side story where FL friend who owns the comic book shop meets the girl she injured, but it added no value whatsoever to the main plot.

I'm writing this review because the other positive reviews didn't make any sense to me, and I wanted to provide a more balanced perspective on my experience with the drama.

Just Meh...

The drama starts off interesting but quickly loses its appeal. The so-called twist is way too predictable, and as the story goes on, it feels like a cliché, poorly written Wattpad story. None of the characters stand out—there’s no one you really like or dislike. It all feels pretty shallow and forgettable.

I really hope someone else explores the idea of corporate cleaners or kingmakers with a more solid storyline in the future. Normally, I’m lenient with my ratings, but I have to be honest—this one is barely watchable. It probably deserves a score between 6.5 and 7.5, but at the time of writing, it’s sitting at an 8.3. So, I just want to give potential viewers a heads-up: don’t go in expecting too much. Turn off your brain and don’t take it too seriously, despite the tone it tries to set.

Anyway, take my review with a grain of salt—I don’t have the time or bandwidth for a lengthy review, and this drama might just feel dated by 2024.
