This one showed such great promise at the start but in the end it fell a bit short to be honest.

I liked the story but as it goes on and they start to go deeper it kinda gets all over the place and loses the grip on viewers.
The main couple were good on what they had to work with but honestly i didn’t feel a strong spark between them, was more of a strong friendship than 2 people who fall in love and can't live without the other.
I dunno, maybe i’m being picky but to me there was something missing between them, no passion in their eyes when they were together and looking at each other and even in the romantic scenes i didn’t felt that spark, that little itch that tells you WOW i wanted to be in her shoes right now!

Like i said, they had such a good thing going on, a really interesting story but then it lacked character development and growth and the most important thing for me the lack of consistency.
And when telling a love story, the small details count a lot, how they touch each other, how they stare into each other eyes and a well acted kiss too (i’m not even gonna mention skinship because that is not the most important thing here) but those things all together make up the chemistry between the actors and make the scenes look more “real” and natural, it's what makes you feel butterflies in the bottom of your stomach but sadly i have to say i didn’t feel them in this drama.

Aside that, it is still a good drama to watch and it had great potencial to be something trully epic and whoosh away the audience.
I do still recomend it, watch it because it has good watch value and the actors did a good job in keeping the boat afloat.
