Wasted potential….

I can say I honestly liked the drama at the start. The story was interesting and different from the typical k-drama… The characters being playboys and talking openly about sex?? The tension between them?? All were welcomed… the main trio in general was enjoyable. Unfortunately that was only the first few episodes. The more the story progressed, the more the focus shifted, and everything became progressively more and more boring.

The writing itself was weak . The random connections the characters had were a bit too much, the parent drama in general was boring, the side characters stories uninteresting, the climax overall was the worst writing wise imo.

Also the main couple was not it… At first there were enough moments to keep me interested in their development but the moment they first got together I’m afraid my interest was lost. Their lovey dovey scenes were particularly boring by the second half. Whether they stayed together or broke up by the end couldn’t care less.

Woo Do Hwan was definitely a highlight in the show... He did his role as a playboy pretty well imo and in the few steamy scenes he was given he delivered… But alas the boredomness of the main couple dragged his character down.. I did not care about what happened to him in the end. Also the way he discarded his of many years and supposedly very meaningful relationship with his two friends and especially soo ji the moment he ~fell in love~ and ~changed~ ??? Yes that annoyed me

As for the other characters I can say Soo ji was the most interesting to me throughout the show. She was one of the few things that kept me throughout the end. Se joo I liked also, Tae hee on the other hand was...ok, just kind of boring.

Despite all of my complaints I still think the show is worth the try for the non typical kind of plot at least at the beginning and Woo Do Hwan… And that one pool scene aheem
