IT IS A SLAP AND KISS DRAMA WHAT DID YOU EXPEXT?????!!!!

Don't expect this to be a "healthy" drama. I mean it. It is a revenge themed slap-and-kiss lakorn. Don't expect logic while watching this,like from the very beginning everything is over the top and unbelievable. Think of it as a very old school harlequin book and lower your expectations because this isn't about an epic love story or anything like that. To be honest I stayed for two characters Mam and Sila and their antics in the underworld,revenge and everything. They could've done things a lot differently but again dont expect much logic in this. All in all though for its specific genre it is a good drama...your experience while watching it might feel like eating junk food.

This is why one should be careful when adapting a manga

It is a mediocre drama full of cliches. But this isn't the problem.

What i didnt like about this live action is that they kept the key points but made them weaker. In the manga Hase and Momo fall in love at first sight which leads them to passionately kiss and unable to stay away from each other they start a relationship in which they BOTH take initiative. Their wish is to be close, live together and make a home for the two of them and their cat.(sidenote:WHERE IS THE CAT?) Buuut this doesnt get shown as such in the drama but rather it is shown as "lets just live together for the plot"

In the manga Momo is kind but never to the point you can call her an idiot. She is gentle but she knows what she wants in her relationship with Hase. Sure they have a lot of skinship and intimate moments but in no case would you think Hase had the upper hand in anything. In fact he was whipped for her since day one. In the drama it is shown but it gets buried underneath the ridiculousness, though it emerges every now and then.

That is my main complaint about this drama,especially in the beginning. That little bit of flame was what made the manga so enjoyable and is missed here making this just ok. Too bad because this could have been far better. But what can you do about it?

If you haven't read the manga though, you are in a mood for something fluff and you don't overthink the plot much there is a chance you'll enjoy watching it. ^^

Old-fashioned galore

Good chemistry between the mcs. But they should have just focused on their cute couple moments. No need for the love triangle drama... If they wanted tension they could have used a dozen different ways to achieve it. Like the age gap and different desires and goals in life etc etc are right there and were enough to make them quarrel, become bitter, get back together etc. If you like old fashioned plot in cdrama then it isnt something you havent seen. The first half was better. They really built up on the chemistry so they should have kept the plot up by that instead. If you dont focus too much on the details though it leaves a sweet feeling overall.
