Started promising, but quickly went down hill

*small spoiler warning*

I was looking forward to see how this drama would unfold, especially with some of my favorite actors being in it.
The first couple of episodes, where we were introduced to the heroine and the guys, the story seemed to be really exciting and promising, and the premise was interesting.

Sadly, as episodes went by, the strong female lead, that used to quote The Art of War, that was witty, that would beat up anyone that was unjust and has an iron will, became the old rag of a woman trope, that cannot take decisions, is easily swayed and is a weak, half-person without her lead man.

I appreciated the plot twist, where the male lead was switched, I found it interesting, but it was badly set up.

The most disappointing was the character development, abysmal at best, they seemed to become less than as time went by.

The dramatic moments were flimsy and with not solid foundation.

The ending was extremely rushed, the last 3 episodes crammed in too many parallels, time became an abstract notion, where comatose patients that has just went through major surgery were popping out of bed like it was going out of fashion.
Overall, the build up for the ending was frustrating, no solid construction was given to the chairman's wife story, the secretary was done dirty, with being pushed aside to a tertiary role, after he was front and center for the first part of the show.

The antagonists were some of the most ignored characters, which made me sad, they had very little involvement in the main story and the actions were very tame, with little to no explanation given for their actions- and, when given, very poorly written.

Music was great, and cinematography was good.

The cast, sadly, could not shoulder such a bad script and a disappointing production.
