I'm a bit upset with the CVs.. how for the first 4 episodes they did not focus on Anna at all and suddenly in one episode they unfolded the complete background..
and when earlier the complete focus was on CYJ.. they showed so much chemistry, trust (even though a deal) between her and KJH..now in mere one episode that chemistry flew away in thin air..
I'm very much interested in this drama and want CVs to not to lack with technical details..
6 episodes are over and i have not yet seen anything that meets the expectations of viewers with the promos.. even the theme song of The K2 seems more promising and worth to watch..
I really hope that the story progresses in a good pace... i have lots of expectations from this drama...
I dunno so far I think everything that happened in the show makes sense to me since I started watching the show. I began watching, not liking any pair, so I was pretty neutral and I think that helped.
Them not showing Anna much in the first 4 episode made sense since she was a prisoner and so her scenes were limited due to immobility. The girl still kept trying to run away and that showed her spunk and stubbornness. She talking back and figuring out stuff also showed her intelligence and smartness. I disagree that they suddenly unfolded her complete background. I am sure there are many aspects to her past that we are still unaware of. And even if that was all, it made sense that we came to know her side of the story while she was talking to JH. The guy has been a constant besides her and she feels safe with him. Besides she never had a friend after the incident and she is starved for human companionship. JH right now is somewhat of a friend that you look upto and depend on. That soon will turn into attraction and love.
In the earlier episodes, the focus was on CYJ because she was and is the big bad of the show. Her decision and moves gets the ball rolling. I am pretty sure SJS cheats so blatantly because he is punishing her for Anna's moms death and for Anna's imprisonment. It's not because he's a pervert but because he likes and wants to make her suffer like he is suffering without his daughter and his daughter is suffering while being imprisoned. I am sure a part of him knows that she loves him and he uses that to hurt her.
I never for the life of me saw any attraction or trust between CYJ and JH. It was always about using each other to get what they wanted. The chemistry is because of the actors and not due to the characters I am sure. Heck, CYJ actually called him a "child" during the umbrella scene. You don't call a guy you are attracted to as a child. She has never seen him with attraction in her eyes..all I saw was a hunger for his loyalty, because she knows that is unchanging. If he swore loyalty to her, he would die but never betray her. That's why his lie to her in the last episode about leaking Anna's info to press was such a huge blow to her. She realized she will never get his loyalty. A part of her also knows that Anna does have his loyalty. She even hinted at it by specifically saying that he saved Anna from her and then she tested him by mentioning how she can get Anna killed the next day itself.
I am afraid the chemistry between the character was all in the eyes of the fans who liked the actors chemistry. JH too never saw CYJ as anything but a ultra smart and dangerous woman who he can use to exact revenge on Minister Park. She tried to get him and the old couple killed after all. He knows she cannot be trusted, that's why he refused to be under her thumb in the JSS HQ. He wants and needs her help but he doesnot trust her and never will. The chemistry and trust between the characters was never there to disappear in an episode.
So far the show has not disappointed me, even though some parts of it could have been made do without or sped up.
