Disappointing

Likes: Kim Yoo Jung's tough character. Kim Sun Young as the mom

Dislikes: pretty much everything else

Dropped this at ep10. This drama just didn't gel together. I think the main problem of this drama is that I don't really feel anything for any of the characters. I'm not sure why, but none of them are that likeable to me. I liked that KYJ is a tough character, because we don't have enough tough female characters in kdramaland, but at the same time, I wasn't really rooting for her or anyone for that matter.

Which brings me to Ji Chang Wook...it hurts me to say this because I'm a big fan, but I've been pretty disappointed with his acting after he got back from the army. He keeps acting in the same way, same style...that now, I don't see the character...all I see is JCW's mannerisms. I hope he will pick better projects and challenge himself more to show his versatility.
