I hated her for using her neighbor, the guy who gave girls all over the globe major second lead syndrome. I found myself rooting for Kang Joon Hyuk to escape from her evil clutches. She was absolutely selfish and well, a kidnapper. Someone once told me, if you like and at the same time hate the characters at different points, the director has done a good job. MAIN CHARACTERS (MINOR SPOILERS) 1) Lee Yeon Seo -Female Lead Terrified, that he will now report her to the police, she tries to keeps him hostage through all means. She thinks she has killed him so she plans to dispose off the body only to find him alive the next day. Seeing him in a dark alley, she attacks him with her heel only to find out that the person lying on the ground is not her manager but the Hallyu star Kang Joon Hyuk (Sung Hoon). Lee Yeon soo (Kim Ga Eun) is a contract worker who plans to teach her manager a last lesson before she leaves ( after being fired). To sum it up, the plot revolves around “Stockholm Syndrome” which is romanticized. I laughed a lot while watching this drama. They took their risks, made the characters quirky and eccentric which played out extremely well in the background of all the things that were happening. Major plot was predictable but the way it was executed made it unique (again, dark humor). Talking about the plot, it was well, different.
For this one, I’ll have to give them production team kudos for experimenting with dark humor in the korean drama realm and to be honest, it did kind of work out well. I am the kind that can get through the drama happily if the characters are enjoyable and the plot is eh. You know, the dramas that start like okay…OKAYYY…this just keeps getting weirder.I am kinda into this but umm idk and then bam! you’re in it, twenty feet down and can’t get back up. Genre: Romantic Comedy, Thriller, Suspense
