Imagine a first snow. The pretty snowflakes are coming down, and it's nice and peaceful and quiet; the snow on the ground is all smooth and sparkly...then BAM out of nowhere some rabid dog comes in and starts thrashing around all over that smooth beautiful snow and leaves it in a cold, slushy, ugly, mess. Basically this drama in a nutshell. The plot started out all right, Yoon Se Na was a girl with fire inside of her, but she had to suppress that fire in order to survive. Then Hyun Wook comes along and pushes her buttons because he's an arrogant little CEO who loves his dog more than most guys love their girlfriends. She explodes at him, he explodes at her, nuclear war between two very angry people. Then OOPS, wow! Turns out Se Na is his dead girlfriend's little sister he's been looking for for so long! Not that he did anything to make her hate him forever or anything...aaaaand we end the scene with Hyun Wook staring at Se Na across the street with tears in his eyes and Se Na glaring at him no doubt cussing him out in her head. I mean honestly it wasn't anything special, but I had expected it to get better from there. Little did I know, it completed flat-lined. And then from there complete plummetation. Which is not a word, but let's make it one. First came the Hyun Wook Tries to Win Se Na's Heart stage which lasted roughly about 2 episodes, then comes the Cute Fuzzy Mutual Happiness stage which lasted about 2 episodes. Finally, the stage you've all been waiting for: Hyun Wook and Se Na Pine For Each Other and Cause Unnecessary Drama and Pain. Essentially the rest of the drama until the last 3 episodes. Literally entire episodes were spent on them just pining for each other. Writers, is that REALLY necessary. We get it. Oh, boo hoo, they miss each other. Please get to the point. I'm not sure if it's because Krystal's never gotten a role like this before, but WOW was Yoon Se Na blegh. I don't think of Krystal as a particularly bad actress, so I'll just peg this one as not so great writing. In the first three episodes, Se Na was an interesting character with a spine and passion for music. She was sad when she needed to be, and she was mad when she needed to be. Oh and most importantly, she had human emotions. Then as the drama progressed it's like she went on living throwing away an emotion a day. By the end of the drama she basically cried all the time and was overall just an emotionless soul sucking robot. Also, can we just take a moment to realize that even towards the end of the drama she kept on calling him AHJUSSI? Ahjussi. Ah. Ju. Ssi. That's what you would call someone twice, thrice, four times your age. Not the person you like. I mean, yes age difference but Oppa exists for a reason and so does Hyun Wook ssi. Another one of the many reasons why this drama was a bit uncomfortable to watch is the blatantly obvious taboo. She's his dead girlfriend's sister. Not only girlfriend, but also dead. Not just dead, but dead with the thought that he had been cheating on her. Their last moments together were spent fighting, and now he goes and falls in love with her sister. It's just not right. I know there's all those sayings like love prevails in the end, or love finds a way, but this is a bit...The one and only beacon of light that kept me watching was Shi Woo. He was straightforward and charismatic. He liked her and he was upfront about his feelings. He didn't beat around the bush, just went ahead and pursued her and that is what I like. Hyun Wook should take notes. Overall, Myungsoo did a great job with this character. It was so obvious, that Shi Woo and Se Na had two oceans more chemistry than Se Na and Hyun Wook, yet Se Na STILL ended up with Hyun Wook. Why is the drama cliché to always have the two main leads end up together? It should have been obvious to the writers that Shi WooxSe Na had more chemistry, yet they still stuck to the classic ending? Speaking of the ending, I can't even review it because I don't know what the hell happened. It just. Boom. End Scene. Cut off abruptly, no explanation. Roll the credits. Byethanksforwatching. I just. No. There was nothing particularly special about the music really. The only song I really wanted was the song Shi Woo sang for Se Na as a guide, but I couldn't find that anywhere. :( If I were to rewatch this, it would be for the cute moments between Se Na and Shi Woo. This drama overall was just a bust on SBS's part. I find that SBS can either come out with REEEEALLY great dramas like City Hunter, My Love From The Star, and Pinocchio, or REEEALLY bad dramas that had good potential like the Heirs or My Lovely Girl. I wouldn't recommend it for experienced watchers, but if you're just starting out, try this one to kind of test your palette. It'll make it easier to compare to other dramas in terms of how good of a drama it actually is.
