Engine Breakdown
I procrastinated for a while to see this drama. After running out of K-Dramas to watch, I finally decided to give it a try after seeing so many high scores.
To my disappointment, WWW did not work for me. For the FIRST time ever, I dropped a show on Episode 9.
The fight between two website companies for better search engine, throwing in some politicians' corrupted ways was far from exciting and did not create the anticipation needed for 16 Episodes as there was quite a bit of dialogue. But then again, how else to compete in the world wide web.
Therefore, I was hoping that the main lead's romance would keep us satisfied. Except for the mind-blowing 1st episode, everything was lagging behind when it comes to their love development. The hesitation from a 38 year old, Ta Mi (Im Soo Jung) to get involved with a 28 year old Park Morgan (Jang Ki Yong) was not only slow and torturous, it went to the point of being ridiculous. The way she treated him was more like a boy, than a man, even though Park Morgan was a well rounded, mature 28 year old, who was sure of his love. It was obvious she is very attracted to him but why it had to drag on so long for her to accept his heart? I would understand the fear coming from a younger lady (no pun intended), but for a 38 year old? Even after Episode 8 where she accepted him, their relationship chemistry was not there, though they kissed well. After watching so many romantic K-dramas, I am quite certain there will be more hesitation and fear of hurting the heart happening from Ta Mi, lots of emotional roller coaster in the coming episodes which I am not keen to go through. So bye bye for me on Episode 9.
I am apologetic if I come off like a 'love' maniac, but I truly wanted to like this drama. As the website companies fight failed to keep me interested, I was looking forward to the romance to save the day. Unfortunately.....the search engine there also broke down for me :(
