absolutely not..

I have very high patience but this was not it. I don't mind the wait but the plot, engagement, i dont even know what it was but something just made me stop watching it. The story had great potential but this was the worse daily drama I have ever seen. I dropped it when the show had 80 episodes and i watched up to 48 last year. Yes daily dramas have push & pull situations; but this was as if there was a lot of "Nothing" going on if that made sense. How can a show be chaotic and have no solid direction of where this was going? If i remember correctly it was like watching something that was just put together.

You would expect that towards the end and most times they rush it but it was just reminding me of elementary school play and even those were more structured than this. I felt bad for the actors who were in this show i wonder if they felt what i felt while watching this. I blame the script and the production. It was rather embarrassing. The way they switched the male lead was funny & never seen that happen before. They didn't even make an excuse for his new appearance but yes the show must go on. More over so I feel like this has been the first drama that made me feel like i was wasting my time. I was being generous with my time to watch it just for the sake of maybe it will get better.

It just wasn't as captivating to hold viewers aka me & this never happened before as a experienced daily kdrama watcher. I never made such a bad review before or even decisive with my opinion. Since I tend to be indecisive with my thoughts on things giving it the benefit of the doubt.

Anyways it had such a promising story line and things went wrong in order to execute it well. It was a mess. This show didn't make me feel angry or anything but it was more of a dysfunctional skit of a kdrama. It didn't even have not one thing that made me want to stay and find out. I wasn't as connected to the show so I dropped it easily.
