Good and enjoyable! Synopsis was inaccurate.

I usually trusted the reviews and comments on this site and avoided lots of dramas based on them. For this series however, I decided otherwise and thank goodness I did. Note: I watched this on Viki with good sub, and it was 16 episodes.
First of all, the synopsis listed was not accurate. ML didn’t have the desire to always win. He had a fragment left in his brain from an accident and it caused some emotional and physical issues. FL was described as obsessed with hormones but it was only displayed significantly in the first few episodes. Afterwards, couldn’t really tell how much she cared about hormones.
Yes, ML was a total jerk in the beginning, but the reasons could be understood (not excused). At he was sweet (enough) in the latter half.
Some comments described FL as a doormat. I respectfully disagreed. She was nice, way nicer than average, maybe like an angel. But she did stood up to her sister in the end. Also, it’s her (extreme) niceness and sincerity that could explain how ML was able to overcome his (wrongfully placed) hatred and fell in love with her.
Now on to Se-Ra. She’s the villain, yes. But again, the reasons could be understood. And in the end, she repented after she resolved the misunderstandings about the accident.
Finally, I do not think the ending was rushed. It had a 1-year time jump but the ending I thought was nice, showing how everyone was settling and working great together.
Overall, I really enjoyed this drama, which considering I’ve watched hundreds of them could be considered good.
