![]() I love the steady characterization and set up being PRIORITIZED. ![]() Instead, we get a meandering mess that losing some of its magic along the way. They seemed more like plot devices than characters Why not just shorten the running time/Episode count and make a better drama? Why is *16* the magic number? This could have easily been cut down to 10-12 episodes and told a more concise, tightly woven tale of Doomed Love. The Writers/authors.none of them added much of anything either. What does he add to the story? Nothing but running time. But the writer's had to fill her time with something. And its not believable that after FL finds out she's dying in 100 days, she decides to make a bold new commitment to a job she herself admits that she hates with a Boss who's an insensitive jerk. They don't provide much conflict or motivation. The CEO/Boss of the Publishing company and pretty much all the office staff.except the Team leader, he was interesting. There are whole scenes/conversations where he's speaking English and the other person is speaking Korean.and neither can understand the other.WTF?! 2. He's married to a Korean woman and he doesn't speak Korean and the Aunt, nor anyone else in the family speak English. Also, there were too many pointless characters: 1. Repeat scenes where we're literally just watching people walking and think with music montages in the background. Other random flashbacks that don't tell the viewer any new information. We get multiple flashbacks of scenes that just happened in the current time frame which we really don't need to be reminded of. The ML and FL just wonder around and ramble on about nothing. ![]() There was long stretching of dialogue and multiple scenes in every episode wherein NOTHING happens. Its like the only essential happenings and dialogue took place in the first 5min and the last 5 minutes of each episode.and the middle 40 - 45 min was just filler. The problem to my mind was not the acting.but the Story/plotting. It's not a horrible show, but it just doesn't quite cut it. Despite all its got going for it.this dramedy kinda fell short. I even liked some of the supporting characters. I've never seen the FL before but I was very impressed with her acting skill.very appealing and likable. Loved some of the characters.ML is an awesome actor (seen him before in "The Smile has Left your Eyes", "Hello Monster", and "Master's Sun". The premise was uniquely interesting, and had the potential to be an epic Romantic Fantasy.
