Entertaining as a story, not so much as a romance ?
Was excited to watch this show for the casting of the main leads. The show seems to present a unique love story, however the love theme seems to be added in awkwardly at certain times. The theme of saving the ocean, and marine life etc. seems to be fighting for screen time alongside the romance sprinkled in. While the actors portrayed their roles well they definitely have done more compelling roles. Somehow in this drama they seem to be selling themselves short, it really feels like a simple cash grab. The music was phenomenal (as excepted of “back number”) and many times through out the show where the story failed to deliver convincing emotion; the piano pieces in the background helped pick up the slack. Probably the thing I disliked most was the, abrupt episode endings, clearly added in just for the sake of trying to insert a false sense of danger, into the show. While I won’t consider this a bad dorama I wouldn’t consider it a good one either. Definitely wouldn’t rewatch it as both these actors have acted in way better dramas. However if your like me and just can’t get enough of both these actors go ahead (the kiss scene was pulled of in great taste); however if your just looking for a good dorama I would skip this one.
