I'm glad I didn't read the reviews before I watched this drama because some of them are way harsh. So, The Great Seducer isn't epic but it isn't that bad.
The story definitely wavered from the original story, but I didn't find that a bad thing. I don't know why people are surprised by the writing. It is pretty typical teen/young adult angst written drama. I'm more surprised that there was no amnesia. I fully expected it toward the end. Woo Do Hwan as Kwon Shi Hyun was supposed to be the seducer, but Joy as Eun Tae Hee showed him a different kind of relationship that was very seductive in its sincerity. I think that Tae Hee ends up being the great seducer. I liked her character. She was firm in her thoughts and stood up for herself. Moon Ga Young as Choi Soo Ji was just a crazy little thing. Those boys should have reigned her in some or at the very least not started revenge on some guy that she didn't even like, although said guy was a total ass. Kim Min Jae as Lee Se Joo was basically a tool used to carry the story line forward at some points. I didn't really care about his character. I think the flaw in this drama is that I didn't really feel sorry for the the three friends at the end like I think the writer intends. The adults were total scum in this drama for the most part. If they had treated their children with some respect and love, then maybe they wouldn't be so horrible. I guess my problem is that I think some people should have been punished more harshly.
The acting was decent. I'm really tired of people dissing idol actors. Joy did just fine. I think Woo Do Hwan was the best and not just because he is totally cute. He was emotionally appropriate for the scenes. Sometimes people blame the actors for bad acting when it is bad writing and directing. I think that might be the case in this drama because so many people were disappointed in the story line. Moon Ga Young can certainly play crazy well. The other actors were fine also.
I really enjoyed the music.
I will never rewatch this.
Overall, I think it was a fun watch and would recommend it to those who like teen angst dramas.
