I've watched a lot of the most recent Korean dramas and came across this one after watching all 4 seasons of Voice because I didn't have anything else lined up.
This drama was made over 10 years ago and I wonder if all the Korean dramas were this SLOW back then!!! By golly each episode moved at a snail's pace. It seemed like it was over an hour!
I watched because the main male lead was the guy from Fiery Priest. I don't know his name but I think it's Kim-somebody. I wanted to see this because I know he has some mad Tae Kwon Do skills and he showed a little in the first episode so I was thinking yes, this will be one of those dramas that will have fighting scenes in it.
Nope! By the fourth episode I told myself to give it one more shot and if nobody does any fighting then I'm dropping it. Not only that, they had that cliche romance in it. Oh my gosh I want to rip my eyes out for the sappiness!!!
If this series was aiming for the plot I wonder how many episodes it would take to actually get to the point. All through the 5 episodes it just focused on two guys having a crush on one girl. Then when the preview of the 6th episode showing everybody fighting over one girl and the main guy, it made me want to hurl insults at whoever thought this was a good drama.
It's dubbed as a thriller, melodrama and romance but there's no thriller in it. It's predominately romance and yes this is why I avoid Korean dramas that have romance in it. I'm so disappointed right now because it's already hard enough trying to find my style of drama without the romance and that makes my chances of finding that slim and nil.
