So, I have a lot of expectations for this show. First of all, the main leads are both good actors, and I truly love them. And Kim Soo Hyun has never disappointed me in the past with his choice of dramas. Ever.
Until this one.
Honestly, I wish I could go back and unwatch it. The first few episodes were barely tolerable, but I thought it couldn't be worse than it already was. So I stayed. Because for sure, in the next few episodes, I would be able to empathize with the characters. There must be a reason why KSH chose this as his first project after military.
I had hopes.
I gave it a chance. And another. And another until I finished the entire thing. I can't believe I allowed myself to sit through all of it, trying to find what others loved about it... what I was missing. Because I want to FEEL something too so I kept on giving chances and excuses. But I was never able to emphatize with the characters on any level.
I don't think the show was able to deliver its message and purpose properly.
This drama is a big MISS for me. Many people did see something in it. I still don't understand what exactly. The only thing I loved about this drama is it's title.
