A "Late to the Party" Review

Overall, not bad, lots of clever writing and stuff. But I have a few major gripes!

First of all, WHAT WAS THAT 180° TURN from the set up of Ahn Jae Hong's character as a kind of a hilarious, childish, blowhard to being mature, meek, and softhearted? His character went from fascinating and bold to bland and flavourless basically from episode 2 to episode 3.

I can't call it poorly done—the writing is clever; I enjoyed the meta-narrative of a drama about writing a drama, and the humour that came from that was pretty funny. I guess my main gripe is that, for slice of life, I didn't find the characters believable.

I think this was an intentional creative choice to complement the story-in-a-story? To make them exaggerated caricatures.

For example, the single mom's story made zero sense from the beginning... they didn't show how he wooed her at all, which would have fleshed out how she changed from seeing him as a creepy, annoying stalker to someone who she'd be open to having a baby with.

They couldn't even show him being funny? He was just a caricature of a trash-like man. Like, for a slice of life—show me what she saw, give me a peak at her heart.

It just made it hard to relate to them, for me personally.

Not a badly done show, just not my cup of tea, overall.
