At first it was good... then the ending flopped :(

I reviewed this about halfway thru the show and as I said before, you need to keep watching for the plot to come to fruition. After finishing this drama, it really had a lot of potential but I am honestly disappointed. The ending seems incomplete and there is no indication for a second season. I would love a 2nd season but the end of the final episode either needs to be conclusive enough in case the show isn't renewed or it needs to be blatantly obvious that a s2 is planned. This drama just had an ambiguous ending that had smiles and happy music but then half the plot is not even resolved. I think it needed 2 more episodes personally.

As for positives: the acting is top tier. The cast is amazing. I know some people say the ML and fl have no chemistry but I honestly think it felt as if they had been together for a while. I mean the actors have been Fated to Love You together which was great. Overall the acting brings up the score a lot. The action imo is also pretty good. I personally enjoyed it tho it may not be a style everyone likes. Most of the show is definitely just snipers but I thought it was a good balance of action, comedy, and family.
The music is great and the middle of the story imo is enjoyable. But, as I said before, so many plotlines were left completely open. I want to recommend this show but unless there is a 2nd season, I probably will not. It's still a fun watch tho, so I won't try to dissuade you either. Even tho the ending was super disappointing it didn't feel like a waste of time. maybe it will tomorrow lol. 7/10 for me.

Kdrama cliches done right

I put this drama off for so long assuming it'd be another overrated snooze fest. I finally watched it and am so glad to be proved wrong! The story is definitely not perfect. You have amnesia and chaebols and bribery and rich guy/poor girl tropes, but it's still surprisingly refreshing. The "rich guy" is goofy and cute, and not some rude, aloof character. The poor girl is smart and resourceful, not necessarily always in need of a savior. The chaebol family is refreshingly mostly kind to each other. Even the villain isn't constantly seeking to end someone's life. The "other girl" character is of course rude, but not overly so where it just gets annoying. It was definitely nice to see them not so focused on revenge after all the revenge dramas that have come out this past year (2023/24). It was just a very cute and endearing drama and the story never slowed down or became boring. The music is not all original but oh wow, they picked great songs. Lots of classics. Definitely one of my new favorites.

The only think I disliked was the second ML. He was okay, but just seemed so old. Kinda creeped me out. He seemed more like a big brother not a love interest. Didn't bother me too much ultimately though.
