The Real Deal Has Come!

The show could have been made into a crisp 10-20 episodes. It meander all over the place with ridiculous plot twists.

My life has been one of plot twists and normally, I enjoy twists and turns, but this show borders on absurdity with irritating and immature plot twists. Acting abilities of the female lead- 🙄 With 30+ year olds, having serious mommy hangups....

I am an Asian and I am confident that the era this drama aims to cover is so over the top and so not credible.

Why did I watch 35 episodes? I was simply amazed that it was so poorly scripted and wanted to see where it would go. Alas 35 episodes is all ican deal with. And 35 hours of my life wasted.

I did not realize I would be watching a protracted soap opera when I started this Kdrama. Fifty episodes are WAY too many! Although I found the first few episodes intriguing, the subsequent installments became more and more melodramatic. In fact, the quality of the writing deteriorated so profoundly that I felt I would have to be a masochist to watch every episode.

The lead actress looks so pathetic most of the time it's difficult to watch. And it's difficult to imagine that the lead actor is actually maintaining a medical practice with all his absenteeism. Plus, the villains are completely despicable, with very little nuance to their performances.

Last, but not least, the soundtrack is overheated to the point it is reminiscent of the dramatic accompaniments of silent movies. Ugh!

Poor casting, Bad acting, one of the worst Kdrama script. Nothing really makes sense. Sometimes I keep watching a show because it's so bad that it's good (read hilarious). Well it's not the case here, you just want to quit which I did at the beginning of episode 7 where the story reaches becomes even more idiotic. Don't lose your time on this one. To reach the 600 characters i'll copy paste the text Poor casting, Bad acting, one of the worst Kdrama script. Nothing really makes sense.

I usually don't review shows that I didn't watch to the end. But this one is such a torture! I looked it up to find outhow many more painful episodes would be released and almost puked when I read 50. 50!!!! What the??!

Matter of factly, I coerced myself into watching because the actors speak a very vivid, realistic Korean. As a learner, I wanted to mimic their intonations and it works marvels. Still. The story, gosh!

So many useless characters, scenes, events. It's all a pathetic mess. No tension, no romance, no nothing. I read somewhere that dramas are made for brainless people and that most of them were just like that, both boring and ridiculously over the top. I so disagree. Despite their many flaws, most dramas are excellent, as they will pull your heart out. This one is an epic failure.

So... how is it rated 8??? I must be missing something. Still. I don't care. I can't have any more of this. I just can't.

It's true that the script has flaws and may be a little annoying, but overall, this drama is one of those series where the slow rhythm is not boring and one is still eager to follow and see what happens in the next episodes. In general, I like dramas where the characters grow up and reach maturity, and this was a feature that everyone... I think everyone has their own taste, and maybe everyone doesn't like some genres, and other comments say, "Wow, fifty episodes is too much. The family series genre requires this many episodes. I've even seen series in this genre that go up to a hundred episodes."
