Pretty fun to watch but a bit frustrating
Kang Yeo Joo is portrayed to be a really clever person, but she cannot figure out how her husband is cheating on her. This was the thing that frustrated me the most. How could she not see the clues? At first, I thought she ignored them on purpose, because she loved Han Woo Sung, but after a while I realized she didn't knew. How?! Yeo Joo noticed the smallest things in Mr. Ma's publishing house that made her realize he's not a real publisher, but she couldn't figure out that Woo Sung was with multiple women and with some very obvious clues?? That made me feel really dissapointed, I expected she'd figure it out sooner.
At times the story felt like it was being dragged and in the last two or three episodes a lot of stuff happened, not ending the story properly enough in my opinion. What actually was the Secret Prayer Room? ( I have a vague idea of what is it about, but they made it seem such a big deal and there wasn't so much information given about it, guess it'll remain a big secret for me haha) Did she actually kill her husband? I mean, it was a really big deal for her, so I assume she did, but after finding out more about Yeo Joo, she doesn't seem the type to do such thing. Why did she keep so many poisonous flowers in her garden if not to use them lol?
To be honest, I wish she was the villain she was portrayed to be, it would have been more interesting, but still, she was a complex character. I wish her and Soo Ho would have ended up together lol. Woo Sung was a really interesting character as well, even if he was a liar and a cheater, at some points I was rooting for him.
With all of those complaints though, I still gave the series a high rating. It was funny, entertaining and it kept me hooked up. I was curious to see what was going to happen next and who actually killed the actress. I would have never guessed the real killer so props to the writer to that! It was a bit of a strange kdrama, but I enjoyed watching it. If you like to watch mystery dramas, this is for you! The cast was wonderful, the acting was on point and I loved the music!
