Over-advertised?

As you can see, I dropped this title at 1 episodes, so it might be a hasty judgement. Please take a look at my bio to find out my standards for a 10/10 drama.

I first heard of this drama when it was advertised on some broadcasting station's Instagram. Since I'm a drama guru and I love watching dramas as they air, I decided to try it out. The first thing that stood out to me was the editing and camerawork. It gave me 2011 K-drama vibes (aka "Dream High" camerawork and setting). [Edit: Xena Ng in the comments told me that 'It has 2011 Kdrama vibes because it's a daily drama ! There are still many family/daily dramas airing nowadays and they always use the family old style of camerawork to film their dramas, it's different from your usuals.'] The first "hook" scene was VERY unappealing. As for the cast, I don't think I am at a position in the drama to judge yet. Finally, as I was dropping this title on MDL, I saw the amount of episodes (100) and immediately decided it wasn't for me.

Overall, DO NOT RECCOMEND you to try unless you are bored out of your mind. I would suggest re-watching that drama that you've already watched a billion times instead of starting this.
