Super power heros meets kdrama

I'm not sure what all the high reviews are about. This drama was 14 episodes too long, basically the whole story was 2 episodes (and this point was VERY clear from the first two episodes), and it dragged forever. Of course we know like always good defeats evil and prevails. Then we have all the cheesy actions from ML being the strongest like any other Hollywood teenage series. There were no character development, perhaps it was more for the bad guys than the leads. Then we have the corruption scandal which is becoming a core part of almost every single kdrama. The plot holes and illogical course of action the leads take just left me baffled on how the writers and producers came up with such lame scenarios.
Overall, felt the writers just wanted to show some cool action scenes to satisfy teenagers, and then had to come up with a story to justify it and nothing beats corruption and some tearjerker family murder drama.

Like many Reverse Harem anime/manga

I was excited to watch this show, in fact i tried to savor it for special occasion to watch it. As soon as i watched episode 2, i was praying for it not to fall into trap of those Shoujo anime/manga. Unfortunately, it followed the exact same pattern, very hard to watch all the Princes swarming the heroine and falling in love with her. Of course the one who is the black sheep and is the most outlier will eventually wins her heart etc etc. I can name 10 anime with exact same plot, going back in history, some political intrigue, some tear jerking story about the ML and eventual romance. I was hoping more from this highly praised kdrama (And I've watched over 50 shows), but this one really could not differentiate itself from some run off the mil Shoujo anime/manga.
If you have a hard time believing me, just google "time travel reverse harem manga" and see for yourself.
