Interesting general plot but too short

Rating - 7.25

This is an interesting short drama. The general plot is not bad. 3 brothers from different mothers are tasked by their father to locate a potential 4th brother. Each brother is also paired with a love interest. This drama would be better if it's not so short and allows us to dive into more of the brothers; individual family background and stories. However, because it's so short, everything seems somewhat half-finished and rushed.

The acting isn't that great. Just OK. Aside from Korean actor Lee Shi Kang (eldest brother), the rest of the cast is quite new to the industry and doesn't have too many acting gigs under their belt. Though odd, having both Korean and Chinese actors and hearing both languages are quite interesting.

I am most interested in the eldest brother's romance, as it's the least cringey. It's too bad there's not enough time to develop and it ends up him having a personality change at the end of the drama (though they gave us a reason for it). The 2nd brother is clingy and childish, and has a co-dependent relationship with his love interest. The youngest brother's story is the least interesting to me.

Don't expect too much. If you want something quick and easy, this could be interesting. I enjoy this enough to give it a very generous 7.25 rounded up to 7.5. Normally, with this quality of acting, writing and production value, this drama deserves a lower rating.
