Could have been better
I am struggling with how to fairly rate this drama. It had so many things wrong with it but it had some good moments also.I totally get the persistent and determined angle they were trying for with Ha Ram in pursing Seo Yi Jin but it came off as too pushy and was tending towards harassment, no should mean no. It seems when beautiful/handsome/rich people display such behaviors they are seen as cute/romantic etc but when people who aren’t attractive/poor do the same thing they get labeled as creepy/stalkerish etc. It’s a very dishonest and selective world we live in.
This series struggled with really bad pacing, they tried to fit too many things without having enough time to flesh them out
The acting, ots and chemistry between our main couple was actually really decent, so IMO it could have been a lot better if the things mentioned above where handled much better.
This isn’t something I would rewatch and I am not really sure if I will say that I do or don’t recommend it. If you are reading this review to decide, then I say I will leave this one as your choice on whether to watch or not.

Meh and bleh
This could have been really good with another set of writers. I liked the cinematography and the music was pretty good. The leads had good chemistry but that’s all that was good with this.I have read some reviews about the pacing and I completely agree with them, the pacing was just weird and felt convoluted. It just jumps from one thing to another. It felt like things were just going from 0-100 without any preamble, I have watched a lot of short dramas that managed to be cohesive, so it definitely wasn’t the length of time.
So Kang In Soo has been putting the moves on Yoon Sang Yi, I mean it wasn’t subtle at all, it was full on come get it moves, then Sang Yi kisses him and he bolts, really, make it make sense, all just to add unnecessary unneeded drama.
This had so much potential IMO but turned out to be something that wasn’t worth it at all to me.
Rewatch value 1/10
Overall 5/10 (And I’m being very generous)

So very good
Even though the romance was lacking a bit as it was not the full focus of the series, the leads chemistry did make up for it alot and the intrigue more than made up for it also. Commander Tan will always have my heart.I was gobsmacked in such a good way with this after ep3.
I will be very honest. I thought the ML couldn’t act for shit in the first 2 episodes but I continued because there was just a vibe to the series that made me want so see more. I told myself I would stop if I didn’t like it by episode 5. Well thank God for that judgement call as I would have missed out on what is turning into one of my top 5 Cdramas of all time.
The ML has in just 2 episode turned from one of my worse leads to one of my absolute favorite leads. I am completely obsessed with him (in a non creepy way).
IMO, This is the first Cdrama lead after Jiang XiaoYu in handsome siblings, that has not been boggled down with false virtue, fake morality and being a goody two shoes. Our male lead is so cunning and strategic and do you know what the best part of it is, he completely owns it and I’m here for it. Aside from the 1st 2 episodes. He completely shines everytime he’s on screen and steals every scene he’s in. I thought the SML was better after watching the 1st 2 episodes but boy was I so wrong. (Still like the SML even tho he had no balls in regards to standing up to this dad).
Someone talked about his hand/finger gestures. They were indeed a thing of beauty.
I read a review bashing the FL, typical behavior. She was a young lady and she was perfect as far as I am concerned.
Some people will watch a series where the FL is between 17-23 and expect her to be acting like a 30 year old. Like the hateful keyboard warriors were any better behaved at that age. I can bet they are not even matured at their current age but have the guts to criticize every FL for not being perfect enough in their eyes. All FL bashers need to either take several seats at the back or GTFOH with their “misogynistic” or “fellow women hating on fellow women” foolish shit.
I have rewatched already so obviously the rewatch value is 10/10.
Overall rating is obviously 10/10 also.
I highly highly recommend

Cringy boring cry fest
I dropped this like a hot rotten potato. It was just super boring and very cringy. I was going to rip out all of my hair and probably my eyeballs if Pharm cried one more time trauma or not, so the best solution for me was to drop this.You are suffering from “severe trauma” but instead of you to go to therapy and see a psychologist, you don’t, then what do you do, you cry and cry and cry incessantly, every f*cking ep. The tears were beyond ridiculous I stopped caring and didn’t give 2 f*cks how he and Dean turned out, hence the drop.
Dropped this so obviously the rewatch value is Zero but since that’s not an option 1/10 it is.
Overall is 1/10 also.
I definitely DO NOT recommend this cringy boring cry fest dubbed a series.

The costume department left something to be desired. While the outfits were pretty decent it felt like they all wore the same outfits for the whole movie.
That red light crosswalk scene where he was on the phone was so damn bad, it was ridiculous. The extras were just walking in all different directions and it didn’t make any sense. I blame the director for that scene.
The acting was pretty decent but it generally wasn’t a solid movie so I won’t be rewatching this.
Overall rating 3.5/10 because I can’t forgive the bait and switch act with all the make out scenes that made it look so fake.
I do not recommend

Don’t even know what to say
There is nothing I hate more than the bashing of FLs in C & K Dramas. It’s my biggest pet peeve. But this series pushed all the freaking wrong buttons for me. In my fight to support the actresses of C & K TV industry from the constant bashing from viewers and fans, I vehemently refuse to blame this actress, so I lay my blame and vitriol solely at the feet of the writers and directors of this snooze dumb fest. I have said this several times in some of my reviews, the writers and directors of C & K Dramas need to STOP portraying their female characters as weak, timid, useless and brainless. It’s beyond ridiculous and so damn insulting to women. The few episodes I watched the FL can’t do anything without d help of d ML or her friends. She acts like a literal child.We are know that movies and series are scripted and then acted but for movies and series to be great they need to not feel like acting but even if it does feel like acting let it atleast be good acting, well to say this one failed woefully in that aspect is such an understatement. It felt like acting and not even in a good way.
I tried to endure this and continue watching but the more I watched the more I felt like I was not only losing brain cells but also forcing myself to watch it. So I dropped this.
1/10 is being generous as there is no option for 0/10.

Emmmmm
I just started and although I have read the “good reviews” so far this is not giving @ all. Of course the main lead can’t die in ep1 but like seriously, the brother of the dead guy shooting all those shots and not even one bullet grazed him especially in such close proximity, puh-lease and then the push from our other lead, who shocker, materialized out of nowhere, I don’t even know if it was a push or a hit and the guy just flew so dramatically. I will keep watching and hopefully all those “good” reviews were actually onto something. Fingers crossed.I will update my rating after watching.
