Well-written until halfway

The story revolves around the female protagonist Gong Shim, who feels inferior in life, especially to her beautiful successful older sister. By chance, Shim attracts the attention of two seemingly very different men: Ahn Dan Tae, an unconventional lawyer with an unpretentious view on life, and the kind hearted chaebol grandson Suk Jon Soo. Suk Jon Soo’s family carries a burden from over 20 years ago, and this resurfaces, intervening with the lives of our main characters.
The synopsis here on MDL feels a bit misleading in regards to “love story of the two sisters” in my opinion. The sister is a rather unlikeable person, but her story feels more like a thin sidetrack.

I thought the script was very well written, but it declined in quality from about halfway. That’s also when the way too obvious product placements appeared, btw.
The ending also felt a bit rushed, or should I say like they took some shortcuts.

As for the cast, I really like Namkoong Min from The Veil and My Dearest, so it was interesting seeing him in this earlier work. His character (Ahn Dan Tae) was a bit exaggerated, but he plays it out very well, and although I won’t say he is as strong in this as in the two before mentioned dramas, it is also a different kind of role.

Bang Min Ah as Gong Shim was convincing, but not brilliant. Her character did disappear a little as the story went on in a different direction, which might be one reason; as I feel she did shine more in the earlier episodes.

I enjoyed Ohn Joo-Wan as Suk Jon Soo; he portrayed emotions well and managed to build a connection with his audience (me, lol).

To sum it up:
It is not a waste of time watching this, but it could have been better. It is not a series I am likely to rewatch, but I might recommend it to others.
