Start-Up (2020)

How amazing this show could have been, biggest disappointment

[5/10 · 18 January 2021]

How wonderful start of a show, loved the building of the backstory and the characters from the start, I was in awe of how emotional and sweet the beginning of the story was, it was a tragic start too but that made it so special. Then suddenly at one point in the show all of this is dropped and you can see clearly she is going to end up with the lead character which makes no sense whatsoever??? The relationship the second lead has with the grandma, the letters, all the things he wanted to do for them and all of this is cropped? There's no explanation or justification and it makes me so sad. I don't think there was a need of having Dosan as lead. It started to feel forced and there was no meaningful bond anymore. I was expecting so much of this show, with such high ratings, cant believe the disappointment. I had to forced myself to end it because I kept turning it off and watching other things...
