Great plot overall but ruined by poor story development and undisciplined writing.
This drama is insulting to intelligence, common sense and a serious test of one's patience. The writer loves to hang on to arcs and subplots that never seem to end or get repeated ad nauseam.
I think it was a passable story up until episode 10. At episode 11 though, I was so over the writer's lack of talent and finesse in continuing this to a logical end. Behold another train wreck idea to force a conflict and confrontation. I could see that from a mile away. Never mind I was already rolling my eyes out when they showed the real mastermind. Anyone with half a brain would have guessed by now. But of course we need more pointless and meandering drama before we get to the resolution of this story.
I thought the writer did well with characterization overall. The motivations and aspirations of people are plainly shown. I thought it was refreshing to see a drama where most characters aren't exactly saints and of dubious personalities. This had an interesting main plot with surprisingly well written characters but got dragged down by a poorly developed story. The arcs here are never resolve. They just tie a loose end to another loose end from one arc to another.
I think if the writer had more talent this would have been a great drama. So much potential but in the end lazy writing and the lack of aptitude to write a more discipline and intuitive story was it's downfall.
