Lee Soo Hyuk's Hairstyle >>>>>> everything else

I didn't know what to expect for an "ad drama." I honestly thought they were going to focus more on the clothing, but I was pleasantly surprised this drama focused on human dynamics.

There were 4 storylines in total. The first was about a failing relationship, the second about a deteriorating relationship, the third about an actress's dreams gradually being crushed, and the last about a mother's love for her child. I only liked the latter two of the four. It appears that the writer improved in the second half of the drama.

I thought the acting was fine. They did the best they could with the mediocre writing and dialogue. You could tell that Sa Rang (played by Lee Su Ji) and Joey (played by Park Seung Ji) were rookies, but I didn't have as much of a problem with that as others did. The stand-out is obviously Lee Soo Hyuk - he seems to really nail his roles as a mysterious, cool figure. I don't mind if actors/actresses take the same type of role over and over again, as long as they're charismatic and have believable acting skills. Soo Hyuk is definitely one of them.

I hope that a longer second season is made. Dramas with this type of format do not bode well as short-form.

aight byeee~
