So I started watching this drama after the lead actors got married in real life. I expected an overflowing CHEMISTRY and while there certainly was, the director seriously underdeveloped the romance storyline and overall, messed up an interesting relation that could have been unforgettable.
I wasn't completely disappointed as there are parts I really enjoyed and I adored Jung Hae In (male lead's sidekick), he was so darn pure and funny. Which is why we kinda come to resent the male lead in the end...
Male lead - Started out so strong, so intriguing and yea, so HOT as a vampire doctor. I won't deny that. For the first 5 eps I was totally on board with him and female lead, I didn't mind the slow progress, in hope that it would get better but fuvk, it does not. While other tsuderes like him melt about halfway through the drama, he just freaking doesn't, until is dumb ass decisions got everyone dear around him (almost everyone) KILLED. Wtf is that, his uselessness towards the end of the drama really frustrated me and the story dragged for so long I had to force myself through 20 eps.
Female lead - Again, started out strong as a brilliant surgeon who doesn't let anyone trample over her. I liked that. But then it became her only trait, HOLY STUBBORNESS. For the life of me I could not understand why the director let her character became so overbearing and she is always butting head with the male lead for the DUMBEST reasons.
It's unfortunate how it ends because this series started out with so much potential and an actual interesting premise. I won't say I regret watching it but I can't exactly I recommend it to anyone else either unless you want minimal romance, a bunch of random and confusing plots thrown together to keep the show "suspenseful" but actually made the story obnoxious to viewers.
I have to congratulate the actors though for making the show somewhat watchable despite the materials they've been given.
