Mixed feelings on this drama…
When thinking of how I could describe this drama in one sentence, all I could think about is how difficult and confusing it was to formulate a sentence. It a really good drama in the middle. Both the beginning and end are harder to watch to me. Not because of the content, but because of the atmosphere and character choices.
For me personally what made the beginning and end hard to watch was Choi Min Young, I don’t know if her character was meant to be so frustrating. But every time she was present, I found myself uninterested in the way she would go about things and her character development. That’s why for me the middle is the best part, her not being there drove the story even more, but also allowed the other characters to do things freely without her holding them back. An example of what made me frustrated, and also showed that she was kind of a hindrance to the story was when she first wakes up from being in a coma she starts pulling strings, as if she has been there the whole time. She seemed like a very controlling character that had no reason to be as controlling as she was. Maybe that’s just her personality and she’s very strong headed but for her to wake up and tell her sister “we’re gonna go back to normal” “you can’t do this anymore” etc.. was something that made her not only unlikable, but made the drama harder to watch.
Besides CMY making the drama herder to watch, how slow, some of the characters were in making fast paced decisions made me disconnect from the story that was being told. I think for the content and situations that they were in a lot of the time you had to be really fast at what you’re going to do next otherwise they would be repercussions. Yoo Seong Pil for instant did this a lot and maybe because he is a police officer you could tell those times where he would pause and think everything out. But he would do that during scenes in which you can’t pause. You could say that he’s acting this way because of the drugs, but those are also drugs that enhance thinking so it’s very weird of him to take so much time to do something. Like when Seo Ho Su’s mom was having a seizure I couldn’t tell if he was being strategic in not helping her or just froze in fright. Either way from what we know of him he’s a smart cunning person you would think that in that situation he would be on top of things without hesitation.
Despite of the characters lacking storylines, my favorite part of the drama was in the high school. There’s a lot that Choi Soo Young could work with, and I really enjoyed her dynamic with Song Jin Woo. Those two characters were the highlight of the whole drama for me. I liked how she could be funny at times with him and he would be serious but also kinda let his guard down. If drama has a season two I would love to see how the characters develop more because there was a lot of them that needed background stories because I couldn’t understand why they did what they did or how they got to where they are.
✧Overall the dramas is pretty good, if you have time to watch it, please do so. But it’s also not a drama that is a must watch. My opinion the best episodes are 4-16 so if you don’t mind how the drama kinda drags in the other seven episodes, then give it a watch. I think this drama would improve with a season two that explains why the characters are who they are. In the end it was a harder drama to finish, but at least I was able to complete it.
