The Storyline is Doomed
Throughout the voyage, the narrative is driven by three elements: love, hate, and pain. The monotony of the same road became tedious, and the interest rate dwindled. I felt that the narratives that began to emerge were too weak to hold the viewers' attention until the finish, and as a result, many individuals abandoned the series.STORY- At first, the storey was pretty amazing, and viewers were equally enthralled. When both characters met, love blossomed, and the storey progressed well until the 11th episode, when the uninteresting plots began to derail the storey. I thought the love triangle between the supporting characters was unjust. Moreover, I pity Lee Hyun Gyu (kang Tae Oh), since he was such a nice and helpful person. Finally, the potential was completely wasted because the conclusion was unjustifiable in any way.
CAST - The cast was incredible, and the leads, Seo In Guk (Myul Mang/Doom) and Park Bo Young (Tak Dong Kyung), played major roles in maintaining my attention in the drama, whether through expressions, chemistry, or bonding. The supporting roles were also excellent.
The Family- For me, the most enjoyable thing was seeing the entire family together. The Aunt and newphews' love, as well as their Uncle's support and desire to keep and protect the family, melted my heart. The brother-sister relationship was fantastic, and I found it to be quite relatable. Na ji na's friendship with Tak Dong Kyung was also remarkable.
OSTs and production- The Songs perplexed me. Love Sight (TxT) and Breaking Down (Ailee) were two of my personal favourites from it, which I've been listening to on repeat recently. The background sounds were also very well-matched to the scenarios. I really admire the stunning cinematography used throughout the series.
What went wrong with the well crafted storey?
The plots weakened the tale, whether it was when she decided to erase all of her memories or when the Doom reappeared, as it was too obvious to occur. Plots began to appear incessantly after the 12th episode, and they were poorly managed.
Is it worthwhile to give it a shot?
Well, it depends on your preferred genre, but if you enjoy romantic and fantasy films, you should definitely give it a shot. OR, if you're a newcomer to the drama world, you can watch it right away (since newcomers to the drama world don't have high expectations at the start of their trip).
In few words –It had the potential to be a lot better.
At last a line from the show - “Love comes with Pain"
