Home for Summer (2019)

I loved this drama. I mean I really loved it. The storyline was "mostly" believable. Nothing was too over the top. Admittedly like most 100+ episodes there were moments when you just wished an anvil would fall on the various antagonists of the show.

I know a lot of folks have been bent out of shape because the bad guys/gals didn't get what we all think they deserved. However I liked the idea that there was forgiveness and acceptance in the end.

I do think they could have ended it sooner, the whole cancer thrown in at the 11th hour really wasn't needed. I was disappointed too that there wasn't any real physical connection with Geum Hee and Sang Won - they kind of gave off a sibling feel when it was all said and done. It wasn't a deal breaker though.

Rewatch? Most likely not. Too long.

Not so good first half, dogshit second half...

Awful writing. The writer had absolutely zero idea how to balance the bad guys and the good guys. There were barely any story other than the cheating, the rest were barely random snippets. Which resulted in an unreasonable drag, especially after the first half the drama was pretty much over but the writer went full random throwing anything at the viewers to get to the 128 mark. That illness at the end was pure rage bait for the viewers. You can feel the painful stretch. Each turning point took forever for this reason. Anyway, this is the writer's first project and it's not looking good at all.
