Which leads me to the main point of my critique: suspense fell flat almost all through the drama for me. The plot revealed too much, too quickly: the multiple flashbacks sure were interesting and nice, but I do believe they weren't exploited to the maximum of their potential. Although it was a nicely built story, I was still bothered by some incoherences and the inevitable moments of boredom. Well that's where the drama loses points. So after praising the actors, I should praise the plot right? I have to say, they are backed by two actors who did more than good Kim Kwon and Kim Da Som perfectly embraced their roles and they grasped the personalities of their characters in a way it makes it easy to jump right into the plot. However Park Jin Young and Shin Ye Eun quickly turned out to be fascinating through the raw emotions they conveyed: they don't try too hard nor not enough, they are spontaneous and hit the emotions just right. I usually think they don't bring enough depth to the characters, that they try too hard and makes it difficult to take them seriously - idols are not actors after all. Rewatch Value 3.0 This drama kind of caught me off guard: I started watching it with a prejudice against idols acting.
