Good Enough
" Drops of God " is an international series that focuses on family, wine, and the mysteries of the past that slowly come to light.The drama is quite intriguing, as it peels off slowly, adding more and more clues to the story as the episodes go by.
In addition, the characters were interesting, especially the side characters that supported the leads and complimented them nicely. But the two leads were those that stole the spotlight, as their chemistry truly shone in the final episodes.
On that note, the performances were enjoyable by everyone in the cast.
Finally, the pace was masterfully handled and the ending was satisfying.
So, overall, eight out of ten.
Intriguing story, multicultural settings
Initially, I picked this show because of Yamapi. It turned out to be good, so much better than I anticipated.It is an adaptation of a manga with the same title, but if you read the manga you'd probably be disappointed because the characters and story in the show are quite different from the manga.
In terms of the story, there are some manga-like tropes that are unescapable here. I mean, if you've read a lot of manga or watched a lot of anime, you could probably guess the outcome of each tests in the story. Still, it is quite an entertaining and heart-warming story overall.
Acting and cast are excellent. I think the multi-language and accents are quite additional charms to this series.
I don't think there is any notable OST that clings to my mind, and while it was enjoyable, one-time watching is quite enough for me----nothing quite appealing for a rewatch.
