Starting from Ep17 it got progressively worse. The last 15 episodes had little to no progress at all. For a drama this long it feels empty, you can easily skip 5 eps without noticing any change. It needed more couples/mini stories. There were about 3 couples with the main couples taking 95% of the attention. Writing wise, there were some very questionable plot shifts here and there that felt out of place. Some characters can disappear for 10+ eps without any mention. The group of friends is never seen in the second half, only FL and Ra Ra.
There were also two driving elements to the story that were done poorly. The unjustified stubbornness of ML father, he is terrified of what people would think of him if his son married FL. And the unfathomable greed of FL step-mother, she sold her soul for materialism. There were a few things to like too. The main couple long journey was satisfying to see flourishing. Some characters got nice development, although it was strange how FL tolerated Ra Ra for this long.
Anyway, it was an interesting watch about Gisaeng. Proceed with caution 4.5/10.
