I had to fast forward through all the Woo hee scenes. Their romance is badly written and poorly acted. She tried to kill your father but no one noticed and you still kissed her!?

Thing is, even the start of Soo and Baek Ah's friendship was kinda badly written but IU and Joo Hyuk ended up carrying it well enough that you buy it. This is just.. nope.

And I can't w the delusion of some people trying to claim viewers initially tuned in for Exo and SNSD, like come on have they forgotten just who the male lead of this drama is?

Soo and Baekah's friendship would have made sense if they showed it in the right order instead of as a flashback. Bad editing causes most of this shows problems.
LJK is completely amazing in this, I've seen most of his other dramas but him in this role can't be topped.
