Great start, amazing in fact. However, all that glitters isn't gold.
Hear me out. This was one of those dramas I dropped once, then gave a second chance, and then dropped again. That just basically means that this drama just couldn't work for me, no matter how hard I wanted it to.
The first 4 episodes are truly entertaining, though. Despite of the annoying side characters, the FL's complex character and the whole concept of an angel with a mission trying to help a broken woman fall in love and ending up falling in love himself is just right up my alley. The cinematography and production quality is excellent, and the story starting off was so full of potential and hope. The dynamics between the FL and ML was really good, and some scenes from the first 4 episodes are very memorable. Shin Hye Sun's acting is BRILLIANT in this drama, unbelievably good. And the OST? My god. I still have 'Pray' by Klang on replay.
However, the second half ain't so much fun. The ML starts to look more like a supporting character for some reason. I don't know if it was his overall character losing its spark, or that he began to have less scenes. The 2ML was too much integrated into the plot than I would've liked, and maybe that's why the 1ML started to blend with the background. But it's not like it was second lead syndrome or anything, the 2ML's character itself is annoying despite of all the backstory and he didn't have any chemistry with the FL. And the whole ballet institute inheritance drama and the FL's evil aunt drama was becoming too tedious, almost makjang-ish. Now, I have nothing against a good makjang. But I do have a lot against it if it's inserted into a drama that has a ton of potential to be something epic and deep.
All in all, it's not a bad drama. It definitely has many positive points about it, and maybe I'll tune into it AGAIN to really put myself at peace. But for now, the inconsistency in writing and the frustrating side characters keeps me from enjoying this.
