This is the usual and often divorced drama plots. There is a divorcee who want to get back together, and lady who wants the divorces, guy have an interest with the divorcee and the two divorcee wants to get back together. This is the average story of this drama. The whole point of this drama is for the women to get back his rich husband. While, the rich husband is such an idiot that she basically lost her whole life because of what he has done. This is the story of this drama. They have an on and off relationship between the two and yet they still want to get back together? This is my first impression of the story after watching it. However, with the other rivals, how can they get back together? They use a different approach with eh story by having a younger boy rival and a bad memory past women rival. This suggests that they would be the antagonist of the whole drama, but the matter of fact they are not. They are just the two person within the drama who want to get want they want to engage a new experience and forget the bad memories. In contrast, this is a drama that I would not recommend for re-watch. The reason behind this is because it is biased to one side of the character, instead of weighing it fairly. This means that the story is biased to sang wook character. Their moments with min jung are quite a lot which completely disregard kang joon feelings for her. So, the story of this drama is pure favouritism to sang wook character and completely ignored the other side of boy rival. Likewise, they also disregard gyu ri’s character which is kind of disappointing. This is the most disappointing outcome of this drama’s storyline. I feel that the reason why this drama have a lot of viewers because of their casting. Sang wook and min jung because of their past dramas which garnered a lot of attention. Gyu ri’s background with drama activities and the flower boy rookie kang joon. I think that this is the main reason why there are still a lot of watchers of this drama. The casting basically impacted this drama. This is because if the casts are very good, viewers will tend to watch it and take no notice of the plotline of the drama. Therefore, I would say that this drama is purely on casting attention than story gainer which is quite depressing. I look forward to dramas that have a good story than good castings. I will not make any reviews about the music they have used. I completely ignore the soundtracks they have used because I focused more about where the story is going and headed on. In conclusion, I would not watch to re-watch the drama because the whole story is so cliché. It is predictable, yet very complicated. They focus more about casting famous rookies and experienced actors. For example, sang wook, gyu ri and min young. The rookies suchs as hellovenus yooyoung, infinite myungsoo and 5uprise kang joon who is known as the flower boy rookie now. Therefore, this drama revolves around the best of the best actors but not the best of the best storyline.
