Something is missing

In the beginning they started off really good and I was really into it. But it was like something was missing the entire show and I can't put my finger on it. It's like everything was just trying too hard and it just turned me off.
For example 2nd ML like to play jokes on FL but really was in love with her yet he was able in like two episodes after meeting another female character fall in love with her and want to be with her... Also 2nd ML had a walking cane but then halfway in the story decane disappeared and it was never mentioned again and he was walking perfectly fine....
Why did so many bad things had to happen to ML? For example, in the first few episodes we see him with the assassination attempt but even that felt awkward. Then we see him back in his home country and to be meet his siblings, who again? It just felt like they were trying too hard. Like when his brother was going against him for the locust plague, it just felt like something was missing to make it make more sense.
Last but not least, the ending was not good. Like we have watched this whole show about FL and how she is not scared of the rumors that she's a jinx. Yet in the end she leaves him because she finally believes the rumor?!?!
While the show did have some good qualities and I did love the actors themselves, there are just some things that didn't quite click for this drama and I really was looking forward to it yet it didn't leave the impression I thought it would.
