A Hideous Waste of Time
One of the oddest and rarest things for me to do is to drop a drama. Even when I am thoroughly bored and annoyed, I keep plugging along. Almost, if not all of the drops in my stats are because the fansubber or streamer was a failure. This year has brought so many firsts and it includes the first time I just gave up. Honestly, I couldn't take it any more. I told myself at ep 5 to just get to 8. At 8 I said 'you're halfway there.' At 10 I thought I was close. But I just can't do it any longer. You may think it's only 4 episodes, but to many it's my precious time. Plus, I fast forwarded through most of the last 3 episodes and I simply refuse to go back.
This is one of the worst pieces of hot steamy garbage I've ever seen. It's poorly written and the directing is amateurish at best. The main story is too idiotic for words and the production isn't good enough to make me want to believe it. The journey isn't one I wish to go on. There's a disturbing age difference in my opinion. The lead couple is being shoved down your throat like a bitter pill. The ML is highly unlikable. He's selfish. He's a consummate liar. He's arrogant. And, sorry but in my opinion, he's unattractive. It's not a face I really want to look at. Go Ara's character is just stupid. I mean she is STUPID! If this was from Hollywood, she'd be blonde with big breasts, the stereotypical airhead.
This marked the first time I anticipated a Go Ara drama. Usually, I stumble upon her and enjoy her performances, so I was excited. I will not anticipate her work ever again. I imagine the director just told her to go stand and make her eyes as big as possible while either pouting or smiling. The scenes where she ate were supposed to be funny, but I found them disgusting. Her jaws poked out with food to show she's hungry. Really?! The rest of this talented cast isn't used much better. They were all wasted except for maybe the lead actor (I'm not even interested enough to look up his name) who was sub-par. It almost seemed as if everyone was brought down to his level instead of he rising to meet theirs. The one shining spot was Lee Soon Jae, but, um.... HE'S LEE SOON JAE! That's like saying the only good actor in the cast of an American tv show is Morgan Freeman. You don't have to direct that type of experience. They already know.
There's way too much music. A sign of a really bad director and editor is to overuse music even if the entertainment company is pushing a song. Go's character is a pianist. There's a lot of music being played. The last thing you need after a terrifically long scene of Brahms and Mozart is more freaking music and, yet, that's what happens. In one episode I swear there was a song every 2 minutes It was maddening.
I would require payment and copious amounts of wine to even think about finishing this craptastic piece of dung. There's no way I'd ever re-watch it.
I don't care about this drama. I don't care about the characters. I was actually routing for the death of at least one character. When I say I truly hate this drama, I am not exaggerating.
