Well, this is what I get for choosing to watch a drama based only on kpop boys..

Actually, that's not entirely fair. This drama had a lot of promise, but unfortunately it missed on a couple notes. From the beginning, the plot is quite fun and engaging, especially with those beautiful Spanish backdrops. But once we leave the European setting, things start to go downhill.

One of my biggest problems with this drama lies with the romance story. While the main couple are obviously not the main part of this show, their relationship is a strong driving force for the plot and the drama is marketed as a fantasy romance thriller so I will treat it as such.

I would say what's wrong with the couple but I think that saying what's right with them would be quicker.. From the start there is no spark between the two characters. But this continues right through the relationship. There's almost no connection between the two, and the way they end up 'dating' is so casual that I didn't even realise it was a confession scene. This wouldn't be such a huge problem, as at the end of the day, this is mainly a fantasy thriller, IF the ending didn't rely so heavily on the romance. Which leads me to my biggest gripe with this show.

The ending. Honestly this last episode completely baffled me, I have no idea what was happening. The worst part of this show is without a doubt the last five minutes. By this point, we have already accepted that Jin Woo has died, but this has no effect, the death of the main character has no impact on the viewer. Honestly, if the show just ended like that with a sad ending I maybe wouldn't even be writing this review but instead they chose to shove an quick explanation for how he could have survived and shoe horn in a sequel bait ending scene of the female lead running to meet him. I just don't understand why this would be left to so far at the end, its just confusing and even more unsatisfying than the already unsatisfying conclusion we would have without this last five minutes.

I was so rooting for this show too, but unfortunately I was disappointed.
