I loved the premise and the start. Even though reviews said it became repetitive, that didn't sound too unlike certain other dramas so I watched it optimistically. I loved how it mocked Boys Over Flowers throughout - really nicely done. The filming is beautiful. I like that it's self-aware. The acting is good.
I enjoyed it but after a while it becomes so boring when the characters start to have the same conversations over and over and over again. After a while, all conversations felt like recaps of what had happened and scenes became a mixture of this, plus a bit of teasing about how things might work out next.
It felt like always waiting for things to happen, with strangely dull payoff. I think someone said in their review here that Dan Oh's role becomes just exclaiming 'Ha Ru!' towards the end, and they weren't wrong. A shame - there was so much opportunity! There were so many makings-of-good moments that were enough to keep you watching through the increasingly mundane scenes towards the end - I just wish it had more of these.
