First half rekindled my love for kdrama, the second half reminded me why I quit.

It starts off so strong. Great characters, great acting, great OST, great plot (relatively--the terminally ill plot is nothing new but I loved the prospect of accidentally rekindling a dead romance when he just wanted her to put him in her will).

The second half was painful. There were good parts. I loved every scene where the relationships between characters stood centre stage. I also adored the way that the greedy, hyper-individualistic family grew closer throughout the drama (Hae In's mother can still kiss my ass though). These good parts were almost entirely overshadowed by the stupid thriller plot. I hate Yoon Eun Seong so much that words escape me when I try to describe my hatred. Not because he's a villain, but because he's annoying. He wants their money, sure. Whatever, people are greedy sometimes, I get it. What I don't get is why he's so obsessed with Hae In. I'd have understood jealousy, because he thought his mother abandoned him to live with the Hong family, but why does he want to own her? They spoke like once. That one time then somehow led to him scamming her entire family, framing Hyun Woo for murder, abducting her from the hospital by pretending they're close, trying to murder Hyun Woo, and finally trying to murder her when he realises she'll never want to be with him because he's garbage. Also, he's so utterly inept in everything he does when trying to break up Hae In and Hyun Woo that it makes me wonder how he managed to scam the family out of everything they own in the first place. It just doesn't make sense.
