Frustrating watch
Let me preface this by saying that I never watched this before, and I'm coming in as someone who has high expectations due to people calling it a classic.
To contextualize, I watched this on June 2021, which is 10+ years after this was released. This is important because I feel like the story only worked for that certain time period, but now in 2021, it's kind of - quite frankly - bad. Maybe it was called a classic by people who grew up from that time, but aside from the 'nostalgia' factor I got from this, there wasn't a lot that would make me want to watch this again.
The female lead is an annoying liar. The male lead is frustratingly stubborn. The second male lead is pathetic. The doctor portrayed as a martyr was good, but she went along with the lies which cancelled everything out. The President mother and her relationship with the grandson was the highlight for me.
Their love story was shallow as well. You fall in love with someone because of their innocence and piano skills? Give me a break. And for him to feel that deeply that fast? Without any challenges to build that unconditional and sacrificial love? For him to throw everything? The only challenge they had was the who court thing where she was harassed by her uncle-in-law, but it all felt like a high school skit to me. College students defending someone in front of a school board? In what world? They needed lawyers, and they needed police. The uncle couldnt have escaped (his story wasnt resolved as well!!!) it they were in a courtroom. It was for publicity, but wouldnt an actual criminal litigation give them more PR? I'm sorry but it was too ridiculous for me and I hated being treated like I'm stupid.
There are a lot of things I dont like about this drama, and I feel like people dont have the guts to call this bad because of it being a cult classic with huge following. Probably the whole nostalgia thing is what made this popular, but then again, I watched this in 2021 so I dont have to abide by their standards
Wouldn't watch it again. It took me a week to finish when I finished dramas of similar length (that I liked) in 2 days.
