First half sweet other half draggy, cringey torture

Never have I seen a drama that had so much sweetness and potential go down hill this badly, why I kept on watching, I thank dubbele speed and skipping... as well as hope of seeing that sweet sweet cat as well as more scenes between the main couple but no she was long gone and those two where not as fun as I would have hoped they would be. This is the first drama I have ever watched so much in dubbele speed, but oddly enough dubbele speed did not feel fast at all, making me wonder if they used slow mo just to fill the time.

It did have some nice action scenes good explosions, high speed water chases and a whole lot of helicopter shots (though i think they reuses allot of those too), so if you are obsessed with tanks, helicopters etc this might actually be enjoyable for you.

Characterwise, the leads and one of the second coples where highly lovable, one was so annoying that I struggled feeling empathy with her, others where also pretty annoying. Not to spoil the drama I will mention one character and a very satisfactory scene as a spoiler tagged comment.

The medical stuff was so ridiculous and inconsistent I struggled between the emotions fear and comedy... one heart transplant was postponed and could be planned several weeks away, giving people the idea that hearts are easy to come by while a lung is rushed and extremely urgent... And I will not get started on how the organ is portrayed after it has been recycled...

So if you want to watch this go for the first half it is actually good and if you start feeling that it is draggy then drop it, it does not get any better! I really hoped it would, but no it will just keep on being draggy... but if you find yourself enjoying the second half too all the power to you! It will keep on going that way so you are in for a fun watch.


Just a note the cat, was the best thing with this drama, I want a spin off for the cat, preferably in a new home with other characters.
