Fascinating to watch for all the wrong reasons
This drama is so surprisingly bad that it is fascinating to watch for all the wrong reasons. How did this happen? The producers obviously spent a lot of money, because the production value is really quite good. Is it the writing, the directing, the acting, or all of the above? The two leads are A list actors, but their cringey, over the top aegyo is embarrassing. The romantic elements (such as they are) are juxtaposed with occasional slapstick punching and tussling, dark interactions with a sinister colleague, and uncomfortable mental health discussions. I'm 12 episodes in and I have no idea if I'm watching a teen romance between two arrested adolescents, a romantic comedy with infantile aegyo, a medical drama, or a mystery. If the producers had any mercy on the viewers, they would end this one early.
Update: After finishing the remaining episodes I can say the drama pulled up before it hit the ground. And it turns out that I was watching a long PSA on mental health that got distractedly more preachy as the drama drew to a close. The aegyo was a bit less pronounced, but it did not go away unfortunately. The last 4 episodes didn't do much to mitigate my opinion that it is a bad drama, but it did do enough to change my rating from a 4 to a 5. If you haven't watched it yet, pass--unless you are obssessed fan of the two leads.
