This drama had a good hook, it was enticing and made you wanted to watch more but when you get into the middle, that's when it got complicated. I feel like there were so many unnecessary things in the drama that did not get fully explain towards the end. I also feel like this drama had a missed opportunity to make better character development and outcomes. As one reviewer mention, it felt like at times the writing got lazy and just started to add random unnecessary things into the drama to kept it longer. I would have been fine with the drama being 10 or 12 episode.
The main female lead, Kim Seo Hui (played by Lee Yoo Young) could have done better. I'm not criticizing the actress, I love her and am watching this drama primary because of her but her character could have done more. It really bothered me in the beginning when Seo Hui was keeping everything to herself such as the blackmailing messages. It also bother me how she did not suspect that old guy who literally say, "do this or you'll end up like your father". That's a major red flag. There were moments like this throughout the drama that bother me and the characters just ignore it.
The main male lead, Jo Tae Shik (played by Lee Min Ki) was a great character. He displays as a cool-level headed guy that follows his intuition. I've never seen him in other drama, this was my first time seeing him act and I really enjoyed it. He brought many depths into his character. Most of the time he may seem as cold or serious, but he is actually compassionate. One thing I wish is that he would have more interaction with the female lead.
Non-spoiler Summary:
A woman gets blackmail to become an assemblywoman after her dad died in a car accident and her husband got kidnapped and mutilated. She also helps the detective in charge of this case to find her husband but together they found a secret that her family is hiding.
**SPOILER SUMMARY**:
A woman gets blackmail by her husband and friend in order to convince her to become an assemblywoman so she will figure out the truth in her family and company. She helps the detective to find her husband only to discover that her husband sacrifice himself so she will learn the truth.
THE ENDING
It was sad and unexpected. I was disappointed with it because I thought that they could do more. Why did he have to sacrifice himself to do it? Why can't they just get off his finger instead of his hands, feet, and ultimately his heart????? I thought taking out his heart was a bit too far. I'm just disappointed because I just wanted the husband and wife to be together. He didn't have to die for her to learn the truth.
MUSIC
I thought that the song, "Who Really Knows" by Donna relates to this drama a lot. For some reason, whenever this song came on it made me think of Kim Seo Hui and her husband. If you listen to the lyrics, it's almost like her perspective on her husband and the truth.
