Kang Yeo Jo is the babiest baby who ever babied and we deserve a season two with her and Soo Ho.
Unedited review posted on Unbothered Unnies.
This drama was nicely done and very entertaining. I am still reeling off of the last two episodes because I am sitting here but wait! I think the charm of this drama is that it asks you to believe in the improbability of certain things happening or not happening and is filled with red herrings. I can understand for a lot of viewers how this can be frustrating especially when it moves at a slow pace in a circular movement. However, as someone who enjoys these type of shows, I didn't find it frustrating at all. Once we got to episode three, I was basically like anything that happened where it seemed like she found out her husband cheated or is the killer is not true. I also did not expect them to reveal who the killer was until the end. There are complaints that the ending was rushed but I really don't see it as such. Another complaint is that they didn't understand the various side characters and the points they served to the story, but it is quite clear that everyone served to tell Kang Yeo Joo's story. It made sense to me that the entire premise of this show wasn't her finding out her husband cheated on her and trying to exact revenge. One of the things about the story that I had a hard time understanding was why with all of Kang Yeo Joo's intelligence did she never pick up on him cheating on her. However, I think that the final episode really honed in on her temperament. She really loves her husband and was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. After all she spent more than half their marriage telling him what would happen if he did cheat on her. Also it could also be interpreted in an entirely different way, but either he way he got stabbed and I stan that. KANG YEO JO HAS NEVER DONE ANYTHING WRONG EVER IN HER LIFE.
Naturally the standout acting was done by Cho Yeong Jeong. She was able to deliver the unique charm of Yeo Joo and tapped into the nuances of her character. Sometimes it was just the little ways that she tilted her head or squinted her eyes which delivered that strong emotion behind it. I would say that the weakest was Yeonwoo and I am not saying this because she is an idol or was one, but rather the kind of unnatural way her delivery was. I understand that Go Mi Rae was supposed to be a timid character, but even her transformation into the "bolder" version still wasn't really much of anything. I felt a disconnect to her story because of that.
As for the music well needless to say I stand by my belief that all of Suran's OSTs are better than any of her original stuff since Walkin' Ep. I really enjoyed the three songs and their composition/lyrics. I thought it fit aptly with our story at hand. I also enjoyed the way the director shot various scenes even with the terribly obvious product placement.
Overall, I enjoyed this drama. It is not one without flaws, but it kept me entertained and guessing all the way through and honestly what more could I ask for? Well besides, more shirtless scenes of Kim Young Dae! I would definitely recommend!
