Ok. last edit because I finally finished watching it.
Edit again because after watching The Smile Has Left Her Eyes with Seo In Guk,. it makes me so mad the flat character he played in Doom... he has do much potential and is a great actor. Doom didnt do him any service
As a drama expert.. as I've watched A LOT A LOT A LOT OF DRAMAS! To me this drama makes no sense, and it wasn't well executed.
The plot is super flat, boring & without a climax. I've watched other dramas like I'll come to you when the weather is nice... it was such a simple plot, yet the acting is amazing & the execution of the whole was simply beautiful so you dont mind the simple story, rather you enjoy it.
However in this drama.. the plot is promising, but disappoints. You only watch this for the actors but even then it wasn't so good. There are a few scenes where there could've been a moment of deep conversations and full on drama, but the main actor breaks into jokes and comments on his looks rather than being serious.. I get it perhaps he was trying to lighten the mood for the main actress in the story, but the two jokes and serious moments dont make sense and it just looks awkward.
I was confused about the other supporting characters.. for almost all the drama I thought those 2 guys were gay, very confusing the whole stories behind them. Also why do they seem to be wearing more make up even than the actresses, doesn't make sense.
Overall... A O K. But the unsurprising ending was also a disappointment. As in many other dramas.. we know what is going to happen at the end, but when they're so well executed they manage to surprise you regardless! This drama didnt.
No wonder why the ratings fell through the end.
Edit to add: the more dramas i've seen with Seo in Guk the more i dislike Doom... it's a disservice to him! He is a great actor & he deserved better
