She should have just remained on that island

Castaway Diva started with a stark depiction of child abuse, setting up a dark fantasy theme. The fate of her father's corpse on the island was left ambiguous, though I suspect she might have eaten him. While the show was initially cute and fun, it became tedious by episode 8, leading me to skip scenes. I expected the plot to focus on Mokha's rise to stardom, but it was bogged down by immature attempts at thrilling subplots. The real father should have confronted the stepfather earlier rather than in the final episode. If Mokha had navigated these challenges while pursuing her career, the show wouldn't have lost momentum. Additionally, Ran Joo's character became tiresome, filled with self-pity and dependence on Mokha. What started as a charming story ultimately turned out to be disappointing.
