There are these life and death situations which are somewhat interesting / exciting. Most times, at least, but all in all it is a huge massacre of many 20 year-old beach bodies. They are either in bikinis to give it some spice or in two episodes a good-looking guy appeared full naked. And even so it is simply boring. Especially the irrelevant dialogues in-between. Not worth the time.

I haven't finished it yet but I am not particularly interested in the outcome either. I guess it is more interesting for people in their twenties.

I still have to write 46 characters for this review to be sent off, so I wish you all a great day and I reached the character limit:)

It took me months to get ready to watch this series. Not because of the very 'dramatic' storyline but because I hated the appearance of the main male character so much. I hated the extravagant clothes he was wearing, his over-styled hairdo, the rings and bracelets he had, not to mention his arrogant, irritating behaviour (about this part I only had assumptions based on the poster and the description of the series). Please, don't get me wrong, I don't prefer bearded cavemen with zero personal hygiene but the main character's looks was a bit too much for my liking. It became clear though that these accessoires were only used to make him look more ridiculous. After the first couple of episodes I was sure that the 2nd leading male actor: Yoon Kye-Sang had no chance of winning the leading lady's heart because of his schoolboy appearance. In my opinion he looked even younger than in his 2004 film debut: 'Ballet gyoseubso' as opposed to the leading man who was clearly somewhat older and manlier too. I thought that if he could have looked like in these movies: Poongsan, Beomjoidosi or Good wife, he could have had a better chance to win this 'competition'. (For those who haven't watched these movies yet: in 'Poongsan' he was a good-looking silent 'saviour', in 'Beomjoidosi' he was a sexy beast and in 'Good wife' he had the look of an attractive, sophisticated business man). But then I had to realize that it is again the old cliché: the character is more important than the appearance. His character here was unrealistically good: he was decent, kind, he thought that the red-headed but sly actress was attractive but he wasn't after her - moreover he kept refusing her constant approaches. He was a bookworm, with rather boring interests like doing a puzzle. I would say that his character was a tiny bit too soft, rather feminine. On the other hand, the movie star was loud, rude, temperamental and mostly egoistic, but he was also surprisingly self-aware and he was able to admit if he made a mistake or said something wrong. So I would say that Yoon Kye-Sang's character was too perfect to be true and this is why he never had a real chance (obviously apart from the fact that the film makers didn't want to couple him up with the short-haired main actress, hahah). I enjoyed this series very much, it was really witty and had a lot of hilarious moments. The game with the phone number was every time funny. For me it was a 9 out of 10 points entertainment.
