Fairly fun and promising, but I expected more...

This drama is a fairly fun watch and the story started on a very promising note, there are so many things that could have been explored in this drama from what is being told in the story and you do get answers to some of your questions along the way but I felt like many things went unanswered and/or passed on throughout the advancement of the episodes, there were things that were blatantly left hanging.

There is a point where there were one too many flashbacks, in fact so much so that I started skipping said flashbacks because I grew tired of them. It's like where they didn't have something meaningful to go with they stuck a flashback to fill it out, so basically half-way through the story it becomes more 'filler' than story with the whole flashback from the past thing specially on the last 2 episodes.

I don't really have any complaint about the actors but the characters/roles they were given to play goodness, it felt like some had a backstory missing or something. Then there were the moments where things were just a little too much, I am all for romance and kissing but particularly on the last episode there was a kissing scene that became a little too much for what I am used to from k-dramas and not only that it felt a bit too forced in a manner...the scene wasn't planned well enough to make it feel more natural and less cringey. Yes, I did indeed actually cringed.

Overall this is a good drama to watch on the side, specially if you are looking for something short in between other dramas or while you find something new to watch then this is great. I don't regret watching it, but I didn't enjoy the ending very much because it left too much unsaid and it felt like more could have been said if they hadn't thrown in so many dang flashbacks into the story/episodes, I truly believe that many flashbacks was unnecessary.
