My main motivation was that it’s the same director for Crash Landing on You, which is a drama that sits on a pedestal way ahead of 2nd or 3rd place.

Pros:

• Like Flower of Evil, you’re forced to root for the bad guy
• Some strong heart-string pulling scenes
• Strong personality on the actors

Cons:

• Not depressing enough (Still cried, but it’s not Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo)
• OST has a lot of English lyrics
• Can we have a good drama that’s not about Chaebols?

Neutral:

• Plot was decent; not as good as Flower of Evil, but fun to follow along. The “seeds” in the plot were seldom deeply rooted, and often just seeding for one episode in advance at a time

Verdict: If you like KDramas, I would recommend it. If you’re not into KDramas and just want something to watch, in case its unclear, I’m a shill for Crash Landing on You
