The mystery of the two worlds and the mechanism of travelling between them were never explained. The shows spent a lot of time depicting the characters' reaction to the unknown phenomenon (crossing between the worlds, hands disappearing, etc.) and none of that was explained. The idea of "jack of all trades but master of none" applies here, combine that with the lack of chemistry between the leading characters, I wouldn't recommend this show if romance is what you're looking for.Īs a mystery thriller this show failed to provide a relief/climax at the end where usually the myth is resolved or explained. This show tries to include more elements than just romance, but it never really excelled at any of them. At its core this is indeed a rom-com, with the romantic elements making up about maybe 40%~ of the total runtime, but that's about it. W tries to be a mix of a romantic comedy and a mystery/sci-fi thriller but failed miserably at both.Īs a rom-com this show is an utter failure. The idea of crossing between two worlds and parallel universe is interesting but not unheard of. This is the first Korean drama I've seen since about 15 years ago, and to say that I'm disappointed would be an understatement. To those of you who called this show a "masterpiece" or "the best Korean drama", you're making me question the overall quality of all K-Dramas in general and whether they're for me. ![]() I can't believe I wasted nearly 16 hours on this piece of crap.
