Meh. Really Meh.
I wish I had read the reviews here before spending the time to watch this show, because I agree with the reviewers (and not with whoever on Dramalist gave it a 7.2 rating!). At best this was a very mediocre production.
Pros: Production values pretty good. Podd has a great body. I liked the character Miriam.
Cons: Hackneyed plot (confused guy falls for his boyhood friend and has trouble accepting his own feelings). Plot not well developed -- there should have been room for plenty of character development and there just wasn't any. Ton was a clod, until suddenly he wasn't. Chon was soooo passive, until suddenly he wasn't....he basically just passed the first 6 episodes or so giving Ton furtive looks. Two-dimensional acting all around (except for Miriam). Just no passion behind the performances. Boring repetitive soundtrack that consisted largely of clickings and drummings.
There were only two moments worth watching: Chon finally shedding his passivity and getting up to dance in a nightclub (with energy!), and Mrs. Nam going ballistic and bad-mouthing Ton's father. But 10 episodes is a lot of time to invest, for two one-minute good scenes.
