I went into this drama completely blind, and I left feeling - unsatisfied. Why? Well, this drama, could have had the potential to be something quite extraordinary, if not for the overbearing crack comedy in line with scenes that could have been powerful and emotional but were ruined by the over-exaggeration that was used.
What do I mean by this? Well, I understand comedy is a genre associated with this show, but when used overwhelmingly it ruins the entire story in my opinion.
Scenes that could have been emotional and move me to tears, were ruined because I was expecting some stupid joke to come into it, it broke my immersion and left me feeling kind of annoyed. I continued watching, hoping it would improve, but it didn't seem to.
In relation to the plot, there were so many gaps in the storyline, rushed - pointless even - scenes. We went from A to Z super fast. I understand it's 22 minutes max per episode with only thirty episodes, but I felt it was all over the place in terms of a proper timeline structure. One minute we have an epic battle, the next thing we have unnecessary additional characters, with no solidity...
I will say that the acting was good enough, but as I said, when it came to scenes that were supposed to be emotional, I felt nothing, it just seemed they were added as an afterthought...
Overall, I wasn't very impressed, I felt that the main actors, who are extremely talented actors in other dramas, were robbed of a good story and characterisation. it ended without a set conclusion I think, and I doubt there will be another season to bring the plot hole filled storyline to order...
