As the title and review score implies, I was not a fan of this drama. I walked into it knowing it would not live up to the C Drama and that was okay, I had just finished up watching True Beauty and wanted to just watch this quickly.

If I could go back in time and tell myself to do literally anything else I would have. The characters in this drama are about as one-dimensional as they come, and almost all of the plot lines resolve themselves within the episode. I understand that that's basically like the formula that the show is going for being more serialized than your typical drama but it makes it unfortunate when plot lines that are kind of interesting (like the substance plot line) get resolved basically off-screen. My biggest grievance with the show is honestly the romances. The second-main lead trope is here and its incredibly cliched. I don't fault the show for that since the cliche is a cliche for a reason and some shows can still do it well. This show doesn't even try to add nuance to the characters and therefore they all just come off as pretty bland. The main male lead literally makes no sense, the show gives you the premise that the main female lead has liked him for as long as she can remember and he just doesn't acknowledge her advances. However its clear from episode 1 that not only does he acknowledge them but he also likes her back because the moment the second main lead comes into the picture he is visually jealous. He is also a member of their friend group so it makes no sense why he would be so standoffish to her besides just to further the plot. This however is not the romance that I have an issue with.

It's the cliche side characters getting together. For starters the idea that one of the characters has a crush on the nurse and then everyone just acknowledges it and no one addresses how its odd is kind of weird but okay whatever. The trope where the one friend is falling for the other character but the other character basically rejects him at every chance is here and at first its harmless and even though you can tell where it's going you don't mind. That is until they just jump the gun and go from "oh my she likes the nurse and not me?" to "you can tell people I'm your girlfriend" with literally no character development to warrant this change. The whole plot line of him going to the hospital makes no sense because they don't imply that anything actually happened to him physically other than him being sad about her falling for the nurse but that doesn't warrant him being in a hospital especially for as long as he is. Overall the moment she said that I had a physical gag reflex as it just felt so forced that it made me feel uncomfortable. It didn't help that the very same episode is when the two main leads get together. Therefore we were left with 6 episodes of no real plot which of course just means its gonna fast forward through random moments in their lives with arbitrary plot lines being thrown in for suspense (like him leaving to the US and coming back or what not).

Honestly I was gonna give this show like a 6.5/10 since it suffers the same faults as the other show in the same "series" whose name is blanking on me but it was a chinese drama with a physics guy. But their chemistry was actually nice and made the show worth watching, this felt like watching cardboard fall for each other and the two side characters rushed (I use rushed lightly as its more like they were just rammed into the romance) made it almost impossible to finish the show let alone recommend it.

tldr: don't watch it if you value your time. Unless you really like Kim Yo Han or something which in that case, stream WEI songs or something its a better use of your time.
