Outstanding. Interesting. Somehow crazy but lovable. These are the things that come to my mind when I think about W. This was one of the K-dramas that I've enjoyed the most. Not only the actors were amazing *hello Lee Jong Suk* but the story itself was kind of different. You don't find a drama about comic books and two different universes, every single day. I don't know why, but every single drama that Lee Jong Suk appears in is good and I really like it.
 First of all, the plot was really good. It all started in a different universe and with an interesting storyline, but it was kind of weird as well. I didn't really like that it started with telling the story of main character and than switched to the female leader. I mean, I was getting more and more into the story of the 17 years old boy and after like 3 minutes, it showed a doctor who is about to get in trouble with her boss.
Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy the first episode and how it was structured, I just didn't really get the point of the beginning of the girl's story. It was kind of weird.
Still, the storyline is really good, even through there were some scenes that I've skipped over because they  seemed to be boring and I didn't have the nerves to watch it.
If I start to think about it, there was one thing I did hate about this series. Yeon-Joo's father and his maniac fight with Kang Chul. Okay man, I understand that you hate him and you've got real problems, but still. He is the main reason that I didn't give this series 10 stars. I just don't get the point of all this kill-him-than heal him game.
Moving on to the actors and the way they've tried to tell  the stories of the characters. I did like the way Kang Chul and Oh Yeon-Joo were presented, but about the rest of the characters, I have a mixed feeling. It's true, they did do an amazing job, I just think that some of them could have made a better job....
On the other hand, the Chemistry between Kang Chul and Yeon-Joo was really strong and I could see the affection between the two of them.  The two of them did an amazing job and I think it has something new. This drama itself has something new and unseen.
After all, I did enjoy the most part of this drama and I think I'll re-watch it sometime in the future.
