Private Lives

Too many flashbacks to cover gaps in the story practically in every episode. Storyline is not fluid. Main plot changes, sub plots disjointed. You will not miss anything if you stop watching

The show has quite an interesting and original plot. The acting is also good, there is not really any character who seems to be bad. However, the timeline is rather confusing and hard to follow. If you are looking for something serious and want to actually think, then this might be the one. If you are looking for something easy to understand and just to have fun, this is not it. Overall, it feels like the production team is trying to bring movie-quality to a TV show by integrating some of the more complex techniques (such as mixed timelines), but they just do not work and not suitable for a TV show type of thing.

This TV show is chaotic directing. No clear story line; some scenes take far too long; one con artist stumbles over another con artist and yet over another. South Korea seems to be filled with them all trying to con some unspecified target or other con artists; an abundance of distracting characters; unnecessary scenes that don't add anything to where ever the show wants to go to; a maze of continually introduced new story lines and confusing characters.

The actors really give a decent performance. But if the director and the guys in the cutting room have a jolly day by throwing different scenes and characters in the air and see how they land on the celluloid, then a séance with Stanislavsky, Adler, Strasberg and Meisner or milking your acting energy from your toe nails up won't prevent your acting efforts from disappearing in a black hole.

Using your fast forward to escape some dreary, boring or irritating scenes doesn't help you to get out of this chaos. Hitting the stop button will.

Watched first two episodes. One szn consists of 16 eps. One eps takes 1h20min. It's not full rich of fun or actions like adrenalinely rushy, but lil bit longy or slow. Not too bad but should have cut some parts ...

Started off strong but completely lost me along the way.

The two main leads became two I simply couldn't care less about. I became more interested in Hanso, Sophia and Sophia's love interest (went blank on his name).
