I hate not finishing a series once I start, but the way I struggled to finish this, good grief ?
I loved them in Goblin and thought they had great chemistry, but this show is.not.it.
It's a shame because I actually liked the story and it felt somewhat real, but Oh Yun Seo comes across as this innocent, perfect 15yr old with no substance which is wild since she does seem mature and intelligent at times. I have no clue what went wrong with Lee dong wook's character Jung rock, I've seen him pull off cold and emotionless before and with praise, but for whatever reason they did not click at all for me.
The jarring contrast between what seems like middle school crush interactions one moment and serious, life altering murder convictions the next felt completely out of place.
The writing is atrocious and leads acting felt severely subpar to the other shows I've seen them in. Oh Jung Se was fantastic as usual, and brief Jang ki yong's visuals helped but this was overall a complete waste of time for me and would not recommend.
