I was tricked in to watching this drama after reading reviews on this site, so I thought I may be of some help and save people some time before they take on this monstrosity.

What I liked
This drama started off strong, hitting all major points of what would be a good drama. Strong female lead, a steady plot, great villains and sweet pacing. The female lead carried the show in the beginning and I was rooting for her to thaw out our main lead and get the chemistry going. ( I really want to throw in a spoiler here...hm let's just say if you like night time romance...forget about it).

After about 33 percent of my time spent watching this show what I liked turned in to

What I disliked
Let's start with repetitive scenes that kept going in a cycle. Once something was resolved, it propped back up again just to start the same story over. The pacing suddenly started to drag and characters actions no longer made sense.
What is interesting is our male lead acting really was awful during the first half of this show, but after the show started going bad his acting suddenly got better...
Do you enjoy watching flashbacks back to back to back??? Well this is the show for you, at least 20 percent of this show is comprised of them.

I am not one to drop a show just because it is a train wreck already, I must see it to the end...so after watching the ending I must say...

Yup the show ended just like this review ended three freaking dots!
