As a viewer watching this in 2021, I have to say I really liked this drama. It was addicting, and the story really picks up after episode 9, so if you don't like the turmoil and blood boiling in the initial 9 episodes, I'd say it's safe to skip around those episodes to get the background info, and then continue watching from episode 9.

I personally found the main story entertaining, and it kept me around for all 50 episodes. I did skip some plotlines, but the main story with the main couple was a good watch. Prepare for a lot of cheesiness, and really good chemistry between the leads.

The music is really good, and I've already listened to some tracks from the OST. I liked the OST so much I ended up making a music video for the drama (lol); so I guess this shows I liked it enough to make a fanvid. Here's the link of you're curious, but there's spoilers so watch at your own risk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDLtu_rk8JA

Regarding rewatch value, I've already gone back to watch some scenes. The acting is well done by the main leads, and just going through the drama and watching their scenes will be worth it.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Just disregard the reviews and give it a chance so you can judge the drama on your own. I almost didn't watch this due to the reviews, but I'm glad I did. I wanted to write this review so maybe those who are doubting whether to watch it will be able to decide for themselves.
