Worthwhile Watching
I like to find those dramas that are not rated very high but are really enjoyable. It is like finding a "diamond in the rough". This drama for me met that criteria. It is not rated that high, but was able to watch the drama till the end without cringing.
For me, a great drama is when I connect with the leads and I am able to experience their inner conflict. In this drama, I was more of a witness of tragic lives versus "walking the path" with them.
We all know the KDRAMA formula: You shall meet the OPC (our primary couple) within 1st half hour, then next 6-8 episodes is flirting, and around episode 14, usually the mom will transform from a loving caring person to a self centered BI**&^ and causing the OPC to breakup. The last 10 minutes of episode 16 OPC find love and live happily ever after.
This drama followed the formula very well but what I enjoyed about the plot about this drama was the little twist: The OPC start of hating each other and finding love and their dream by the end.
I could have rated this drama higher than 8.0 but did not want to go as high as 8.5.
In the last episode, I would like to have seen more of OPC lives together at end. After all one of the main issue was: Would they be more successful as a married couple 2nd time around? Instead, the director and the editor chose fill 10 minutes of recap with scenes that I just spend 16 hours watching.
I didn't like "the walls are listening" setup meaning that there is always that person listening to what one thinks is a private conversation. I think the director could have chosen more clever way of discovering the truth to tell a more powerful story.
For me loose ends were:
what happened with the death tarot card.?
Other than OPC being jealous, how did they transform to discover that they loved each other? In this FL, is the one who instigated the divorce but I didn't see her take responsibility of her action. Instead, she waited for ML to pursue her? It was little confusing.
In spite of my complaints about the contents of the drama, I enjoyed it.
