Shaking my head

Started watching Korean dramas on Netflix during the COVID pandemic. Some were pretty decent but most shows ranged from ‘meh’ to ‘um...what?’ But this show topped them all as far as ‘what the ?!?! is going on?’ department. So much so that I’m actually writing a drama review for the first time. For your info, I’ve watched up to Ep. 15 or 16.

I’ll just write down a list of my comments/thoughts/questions I had while watching the show to keep things simple.

1. I’ve never not liked both female and male leads but wow! They assigned the FL to be sheepish and the ML to be hotheaded and goofy. Ok, I’m ok with that but they turned up the unrealism dial all the way to 100. It’s so hard to like them and root for them because they’re cartoon characters.

2. So basically people act crazy and ignorant because they’re all just country bumpkins. Very convenient. I see why they chose a podunk town.

3. The ML can’t control his mouth and fists? He’s on live TV and starts beating up a suspect? He’s a cop? He got reassigned but still can’t control himself?

4. Is this a Rom-com, drama or murder mystery? Every couple of episodes, they shake things up.

5. I still can’t get over the fact that they introduced a serial killer and s/he is after the FL? What?

6. Side characters like the landlord and the kid’s dad are absolutely unnecessary. Could have cut at least 6-7 episodes easy. Also, the girl that blackmails.

7. It doesn’t matter who it is, the FL has time for them all. She’ll eat/drink with male characters no matter how badly they treat her. She tells them to leave but still ends up eating/drinking right after. I guess that’s because she’s sheepish.

8. So the serial killer resurfaces but only the country bumpkin cops are investigating. No Feds getting involved?

9. The serial killer breaks into FL’s business multiple times but everyone seems to forget that he’s around. Nothing major gets done. Very nonchalant about it. Episodes come and go but it’s like they’re investigating a missing dog case. If someone’s after my life, that would be my #1 priority and I would get everyone and everything involved but not the FL.

10. I don’t think the writers bothered to do any research on dementia at all. When you first meet FL’s long lost mom, she urinated on herself. Then she seems pretty normal except that she’s a bit crazy.

11. I’m getting a sense that whenever they run out of drama, they bring up the serial killer.

12. My wife just asked “so how big is this small town?”

13. A famous pro baseball player keeps coming around in his Audi but I guess nobody notices this

14. Now everyone’s suspected of killing the blackmail girl. Ridiculous.

15. The town bullies are nice to the FL all of a sudden because she wore a red dress?

16. Oh, now we’re supposed to feel bad for the Instagram wife.

17. FL keeps doing stupid stuff and asks why her fate is so mean to her or something like that. It’s called bad decisions. Not fate.

18. This show has something against men. Men are portrayed as idiotic, weak, greedy, insecure, spineless and/or hotheaded.

19. Would you hide your dad if you thought he was either an arsonist or serial killer?

20. So now the FL’s mom doesn’t have dementia. Her idiot daughters the only one who fell for it. So hard to like this woman.

21. They keep introducing new side characters that are irrelevant. Trying so hard to drag the story along. Sigh.

22. The FL just walked into an abandoned shopping mall with the entrance chained shut. She knows she has a serial killer after her. These people are cartoon characters.

23. The FL’s way of dealing with her bratty son is to just appease him. She breaks up with the FL because her son is turning into her? What??? Maybe the writers never had kids of their own or they have bratty kids themselves?

24. Show runner: Ok, now we found the serial killer but we still need a couple more episodes... I know, let’s have the FL dump the ML after all he’s done! Brilliant!

25. Er... so now the bratty son is the narrator of the show? He’s all grown up? What?

26. It’s like this show had 3 different writers taking turns to write different episodes without reading what the others wrote.
