The plot had potential but the characters are mostly all jerks. Their emotions have no consistency, especially the male lead. Too many cliches justifying bad behaviour, especially his horrifying behaviour towards his ex.
The supporting actors have slightly better characters written for them. The police officer, the priest and the lead actress' father are alright.
Some sensitive topics are dealt with extremely poorly and it shows the lack empathy from the writers.
Overall, the feel good moments aren't enough to suffer through the series. Things either conveniently fall into place or linger unresolved. Quitting mid-series.
Edit: Watched episode 15 for Song Duk Ho's incredible performance in the first half of the episode.
