slow drama with poor chemistry

Despite my rating, I am going to finish this drama (fast forwarding at times), just to see how it ends. Because, let's be honest, dramas about cheating are some of the most watched genres.

CONS:
- no chemistry between the leads
- that drab green coat. It is as if Hae Won has nothing else to wear except that. Glad to be finally rid of it at ep 9. Didn't like the actress in Hospital Playlist, and nothing has changed after seeing her here.
- the actress portraying Hee Joo. Her voice when she speaks to her in-laws sounds like she is trying hard to come off as a nice person. She smiles at the most inopportune times. The role is conflicting because one moment she is angered that these 2 people from her past might disrupt her perfect life. And yet, she keeps putting herself into situations that would require her to have interactions with them.
- too many unnecessary characters. Hee Joo's mom and grandfather, Hae Won's brother and the creepy old lady who keeps calling him a murderer, the bartender, the billiard hall owner and his daughter Joo Yong.
- the disrespectful son and daughter of Hee Joo, both of whom need to be taken down a peg or two
- the unreasonable plot wherein Hee Joo stayed for several years in Ireland and lived with her boy toy while raising their baby, all while she was married

PROS
- none actually. Just feel that the only one who can act among the leads are the two guys.

So, just like Penthouse season 3, this is just something I have to finish which is why I am still watching it. LOL
