El Heredero Imposible (2024)

Guardate altro.

Titolo che aspettavo con ansia, visto il cast e le anticipazioni sulla trama, ma a posteriori si è rivelato essere qualcosa di cui poter fare a meno.
Storia che si sviluppa in modo prevedibile nonostante quelli che avrebbero dovuto essere geniali colpi di scena, cast stellare ma sfruttato poco e male (i due protagonisti maschili bravissimi, la femminile decisamente no, molti personaggi di supporto presi e buttati a casaccio qua e là senza un perché valido), musiche unica cosa che ho trovato degne di nota.
Non sprecate 12 ore del vostro tempo a guardarlo, la Disney a sto giro ha toppato di brutto, avrei dato 0 al rewatch, ma non mi è concesso farlo.

Not Good Enough

Korean Drama '' The Impossible Heir '' is a melodrama about the relationship between two young men.

On paper, the storyline sounds fantastic, however, the first part of the drama is quite a let down. The drama actually takes a bit to settle down and find its way. With the family drama being lukewarm and the weak romance trying to take the main place in the plot, the series was quite boring for that part.

The second part, on the other hand, was quite intense and enjoyable. With the main lead taking a turn and embracing his dark side, the thriller got better and more action scenes were added.

Finally, the performances varied from good to wooden.

So, overall, five out of ten.

surprised by the reviews here...

i'm very surprised by the reviews this show got. Of course is not for everyone, the show takes its time to get where it wants. People who wants action by the first or even third episode will not like it and find it very boring (and that's ok). I would recommend people to pay more attention to what is happening in the show, a lot of details is being explained throughout it but it really needs to pay attention.
For the characters, some people complain that Taeoh becomes the good one, while Inha the bad one. Life is not that simple lol. The show is quite clear that none of the main characters are one thing or another, since the second episode it shows that the three of them are moved by their own greedy. Inha doesn't do things out of blue, he was always a emotional person, that's why he start to like Taeoh from the beginning and falls in love for Hye-won with just few interactions. He is quite a obsessive person that is doing things without thinking from the start.
Hye-won, I agree, could have much more impact in the show. Her development gets lose every time something happens with Taeoh and Inha. She is a good character and should have more time for us to see her plans.
(I won't even talk about people saying that is bad Hye-won and Taeoh have kissed a day before the marriage, of course is not right to do, but yeah people are human and make mistakes - this doesn't imply that you should kill someone and put the blame into your ex-friend)
A lot of dramas struggle when doing the Succession plot and I won't say that Impossible Heir does it the best, but for sure it makes much more sense than what has been done in much others.
Recomend people to give it a try until the episode 8, when I think it really makes everything more interesting and, since it only has 12 episodes, I don't think one would be wasting much time doing so.

Worst storyline

After first episode i thought ok this not like regular drama it has something i should continue
After 4th episode i got disappointed why the Female lead interfere in the friendship why was she even there ?
After 6th episode im not disappointed anymore i got so much anger on the screen writter and director do they have any sense they must have watched more drama then me even though they developed a worst storyline
I know they are going to justify this in the upcoming episodes but i won't compromise whatever changes they made i think this the last episode i watched on the series im going to drop it
Come up with different drama with better writing and direction after this shitty one I'll wait for it

Mistake of production which they lost 20 billion KW

In my opinion FL character was unnecessary i am not object on her acting or any thing HSZ is good model but acting she should practice for this if she interest in it i hope in future she will do her best
Writer should be sue for his work he thought he is a professional no he is not... he is worst writer. The story good when 2 ML character together plan for future, but when he includes FML character the story became worst. In my opinion writer should quite his job and do what is best for him. This story have so many hole plot like a time jump than taeoh realised he love Hywon and she married his friend. Then taeoh smart person but never knew about his friend motive. Its shocked me taeoh reaction so unnecessary and inha turn to evil. All the things make everyone confused.
Director fault is very big mistake he never guid FL its his fault he never properly guid her. He knew she is not professional but she struggled he never helped her. He cast a good supportive actors like Choi hee jin as Kang hee ju and lee ji hoon as kang seong ju they both are brilliant actors but they have little time screen all focus on main three lead and confusing story so please Disney plus work dont waste like this project hire some professional people who save your money

Definitely not first rate

This is a chaebol melodrama. When Han Taeoh, a poverty-stricken but intelligent and smart young man teams up with Kang Inha, the illegitimate son of a chaebol family to help each other rise to the top, they did not expect their plans to be interrupted by selfish desires or the presence of a girl, Na Hyewon.

This drama's plot is utterly captivating. The dialogue is also realistic and convincing. Being a drama where issues on assets, inheritance, finances, ambition and greed are dominant, the tone is quite serious.

Although the drama has the tendency to draw audience in, there were some parts i found disappointing.

Th impossible heir has unlikeable characters. Almost everyone in the drama is either greedy and wants to even covet what's not theirs or overly ambitious and would make use of any available person or opportunity to rise to the top.

Another point of criticism has to do with the female lead's acting which was very terrible. This is my first ever drama of Hong Su Zu and it was a huge let down. Her character as Na Hyewon was effortlessly flawed. Her inability to show diverse facial expressions was evident in every scene of hers. Even in situations that required sorrowful expressions, she came off as stoic. However, as a rookie, i'd give her the benefit of the doubt hoping she'd grow and improve with time.

Although the drama ended on a good note, it wasn't satisfying. For me, it was poorly executed and lacked certain details. All in all, the impossible heir wasn't bad, just that it could have used more story development.

Don't waste your time

I beleive that every drama even if it's trash , cringey , illogical or even immoral has a kind of audience , some kind of entertainment value which makes us watch them .But for this drama , maybe you are a die hard fan of the actors or just want to curse at your screen (stress watching) kinda recommended .But otherwise pls don't waste your time on this.Even all the high budget , ost and talented cast couldn't save this drama because of the crappy plot , underdeveloped characters , really couldn't connect with any of the leads couldn't understand their motivations really wished the worst for them to happen.Rather than the drama the comments in the mdl section and social media were more interesting than the drama itself.Special mention for my girl heeju and the hacker guy only characters I liked in this drama and were relatable.

genuinely would like to have a word with the writer

The Impossible Heir was a drama that I went into with extremely high expectations because of the main leads and trailers, however, I was left with even more disappointment. It lacked ingenuity altogether and at no point in the duration of the show were certain plot devices fully explained or even utilised.

The Good:
Honestly, there isn't much to this list, but i'm gonna try anyways
1. Eye candy- as usual the actors are definitely a pleasure to see on the screen, but whether the script did justice to their abilities is highly questionable

2. New talent- I loved seeing actors I haven't been introduced/haven't seen much of. Choi heejin was an absolute scene stealer and I kept waiting for more plot presence for her. Jang maru was another actor I'm looking forward to and he did well in the role of sunwoo wan.


The Not-So-Good:
This drama had a number of fatal flaws that made it a tiring watch and I really hope the writer takes fan feedback.
1. The lack of character building- rather than a lack of character development, I feel this drama lacked in its character building. At no point during the first half of the drama did I understand the characters and their motives. The generic and yet terribly explained trauma said nothing about the characters and the time skips were too large to grasp the development of their dynamic. Even after the show had established a certain narrative, I was unable to understand the need for the initial premise of taeoh and inha's friendship. taeoh climbing up to his position was his own effort and clearly his fathers wrongdoings didnt seem to be a scratch on him. so what really was the need for the collaboration bw the two.

2. The FL- contrary to popular opinion here, the FLs acting-while stiff- didn't really bother me as much as her character did. Her character was practically useless-she contributed just about nothing to the groups plans after a point, wasnt of any help to taeohs final plan and the drive to marry inha made no sense either considering her talent was being acknowledged at her workplace. The kiss was entirely unnecessary and only became taeoh's weakness.

3. Unexplored plot devices- So many characters in this drama seemed to be there solely for the sake of adding characters and deluding the viewers to believe in the complexity of the situation. taeoh's dad existed solely as a set up and at no point did the 'murderers son' title matter except for a few minutes in ep 11. Similarly, hyewons mother only existed for the betrayal point to show that inha wasnt into hyewon. Heeju's existence seemed like a filler at her character never seemed to have any purpose.

4. The unnecessary romance- much like other parts of this drama, hyewon and taeohs romantic affection had no proper explanation, elaboration or even appropriate closure and was a distraction from the main plot that was getting unnecessarily tangled by their absurd romance line.

There is definitely a lot to unwrap when talking about where the drama fell short but all in all it seemed like a concept that started to birth a 20 episode makjang but was forced into the mould of a 12 ep drama. Was most definitely disappointed at the choice of script for the MLs and would not recommend this to someone who isn't an avid fan of either.
