I truly cannot emphasize enough on how much this show disappointed me!
I got so excited by the first episode. And even through half of second episode. But after that, it became a magnificent free fall!
Usually Korean shows start well but they decline after 7-8 episodes. But the decline happened very soon for this one.
Something that could have been a great serious thriller, became a joke. A childish silly rom com.
The main characters are unbelievable. Their dialogues on the phone are ridiculous and meaningless. Male lead's change of behavior is so drastic and is unbelievable and sometimes annoyingly childish to the audience. You would ask yourselves:" how could someone so smart be so stupid?"
This show has all kinds of twists which you see regularly on Korean shows, but all these twists look and sound comical in this show. They don't affect you the way they should.
They only thing that hooked me was that the leads had a good chemistry(kind of), specially male lead who could show his emotions pretty well.
That is all.

From 10 to an 8.
This was a great K Drama until the final episode.
I was hooked until episode 12 and I'm like what the heck happened? It was a complete turnaround. It did not make sense. I don't know what the production team was thinking. There are no spoilers here as I want to hear if other reviewers thought the same.
I don't want to spoil it, but my suggestion would be is to watch the first 11 episode and let it end there.
Don't bother watching episode 12 it would be a shame to say episode 12 was part of this amazing K drama. Whoever is on the production team that decided to greenlight episode 12 should be fired.

Storyline:
Episodes 1 to 5 : superb. It hooks you in and can binge watch.
Episodes 6 to 10 : decent Episodes 11, 12 : worst. Can't imagine it is the same drama.
Why does it still get a 7 rating: Acting: top notch from everyone involved in all the episodes. Especially the leads. Their chemistry is off the charts.
Music: suits the drama perfectly. You can listen to it in loop. See the light song from the drama is one of the best ones that has come out recently.
Cinematography: extremely well done on how they depict different moods and settings Direction : Saves the weak Story line across the episodes.

This was one that I had some issues with, but overall I wanted to go the distance. I wasn't as put off by the last episode, & as there are only 12 it was a much more endurable experience.
Wow, how much more can these rich families be dysfunctional? The dark secrets just kept being exposed & I was genuinely surprised by some twists in the plot. The kidnapper/sociopath did a good job at portraying a sense of dread. He did seem to elude the police for far too long.
The ML, Yoo Yeon-seok, & the FL, Chae Soo-bin, had reasonable enough interaction to develop a sense of a relationship. I don't know how his wife was kept secret as he was a well known celebrity who would be easy to follow.
The love triangle really didn't develop with the psychiatrist. The secondary love interests was a bit of an afterthought.
Yes, the bit in Argan at the end was a bit too much, but as in a lot of K dramas there is a period of separation..

This show hooked me from the beginning. The actors were amazing. I see some gave it a bad rating for the ending but the show as a whole was well done. The ending was rushed but still a great watch. It was a romantic thriller which is exactly what is was supposed to be. Loved the music and the escape. It's not a serious drama but a fun one. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a romance like a romance novel. The characters are beautiful and sexy. The plot is creative and not your typical kdrama which I like. It's not my favorite kdrama but certainly a very entertaining one. It's worth the watch if you are into that genre.
