REVIEW:
In retrospect, I don't really have much to say about the drama in itself. The drama was fun and enjoyable, with few (if any) errors. The episodes were steady and it never really got boring. Although this is definitely a drama that is worth watching, I don't really have anything too positive or too negative about this series. Nothing really stood out to me too much.
I do think the biggest problem, though, was Kim Jae Won. Jae Won is a decent actor, but he kept forgetting that he was playing a deaf character when he was acting. T.T Did the director not notice that he wasn't even facing the female lead when she said some lines that the character was supposed to understand? Although it wasn't very often, sometimes the storyline would obviously suggest that the character had seen the other character say something, yet in the actual film the character wasn't looking at the secondary character's lips or face.
One I found really scary was when the character Cha Dong Joo was driving while holding a conversation. I seriously have to wonder how he didn't get into a car accident. It's one thing to glance in the rear view mirror once in a while, but there was way too much time spent reading the passengers lips.
