A big fat disappointment

Expectations were high for this drama, unfortunately it didn’t keep up with them.

I’m really, really disappointed with this one. EarthMix couple is good… but not good enough to carry out such a lame and pointless plot and script without fail. (Summary: dumb people doing dumb things for no reason at all)

7 days on the road around Thailand. Yeah. Great. If I only had seen something of the landscapes, customs or dishes typical of the various places visited by the protagonists. The highlight of the trip was the bright orange Jeep, don’t get me wrong, I loved that car, but it definitely shouldn’t have been the point here.

The majority of the characters were useless:
- The mother? For god sake, I hated her so much I wanted to slap her in the face twice out of three. She is a despicable, delusional and dumb villain hidden behind a forever crying poor woman… it was all her doing (and what for?? I still can’t get it) but still, after her confession they acted all lovey dovey as if everything were normal. As if she had not tried to sabotage the two protagonists from the start on a personal and senseless whim. Conservative my ass, the woman was delusional.
- The sister? Well, she was the pretext for the story. She was the one in need, the one to be saved… other than that her character was weak and shallow, surely not well enough developed.
- The doctor/childhood friend/farm guide? He wasn’t so bad. I mean, I didn’t hate nor loved him, I think he was sort of ok, maybe a bit too gullible. (Other than Korn&Win he’s the only one with an hint of backstory so I appreciated it).
- Aunt and uncle? I have nothing to say other than: Dumber and Dumber (but without the fun part). I don’t even know why (WHY??) they were there. Two of the most useless characters of the decade. With or without them, the plot remains the same, like the same SAME.
- The dude with the crush? Literally useless.
- The farm workers (and in general all the side characters)? Boring and useless. No backstories, no side stories, no funny scenes, no drama, no help at all. Like NOTHING at all. Sorry, not sorry. The skip button is your friend.

And finally: Korn&Win
Lame love story and crappy character development .
Win was detestable for more than the first half.
Korn was a mistreated puppy for more than the fist half.
And it all changes overnight after the words of a monk and a camping night in mute mode. Yeah.
(But I must say, the confession on the sand and the kiss scene was the best part of the entire drama, I loved it… this scene by itself conveys a lot of feelings, Earth and Mix did a great job here).
In the flashbacks it is shown how in the past there was already something more than just friendship between them, yet Win starts to act like a jerk for no good reason other than greed and irrational anger and Korn stays in silence every damn time, never trying to explain or defend himself (when they were together it was like witnessing an accident in slow motion). Communication is IMPORTANT.
The “engagement act” at the end only made it all worse.

I can’t deny the chemistry between EarthMix, but that said, this drama did not do them justice at all.

In my opinion it was a waste of time, I hope to see them work together in a better production.
