Dear Hyeri, you deserved better
There’s no other way to describe this show other than wasted potential.
I went through most of it thinking it would be one of the best dramas of the year, but the last couple of episodes came and it suddenly turned into one of the worst ones.
This is one of the few drama plots that I think could’ve done with more episodes; you could exclude all the nonsensical secondary characters and all the “let’s try to redeem this ass*hole of a ML by showing his trauma” and still be left with so much to unpack from Eun Ho’s story alone, but instead, it felt like they suddenly had to cut the story short and chose the cheapest, most ridiculous ending possible for it.
It’s like the last two last episodes were completely separate from all the rest. The intended message might’ve been that “love heals all” but in reality, nothing is healed, the “love” is simply toxic and all that’s left is Eun Ho’s unresolved traumas and bunch of complex storylines that were never fully explored.
