The first half was kind of funny and interesting, although silly with the teenage fan stuff. The second half was mostly cringy and very construed, as if they wanted to fit every conceivable K-Drama trope into it, plus lots of embarrassing product placement. I skipped through most of it and just stuck with it since it was a delight to watch Ahn Bo-hyun. Kim Sun-young was also interesting to watch initially, but her role went overboard. The two leads were wasted in the lovey-dovey of the later episodes, especially since they had proven in the first episodes that they can play much more complex characters.

Not your usual chebol - corruption - amnesia - love triangle - destiny drama. But unfortunately not very interesting either. The story is not convincing, adults are behaving like self centred, spoiled teenagers and the conflicts solely arise by just not talking to one another. The most interesting story is that of the elder brother, Jun. This had potential but was just a minor point. The inner monologues were mostly pseudo philosophical, it would have been much better if they had just been dialogues. But then again, it would have been even more obvious that this drama lacked a compelling story. Fast forwarded through most of it but should have stopped after episode 2 because it doesn't get any better.
