Be My Big Mess

I am still a bit shocked at how badly this came together. It's a bit amazing just all the things that went horribly wrong here.

If I hadn't seen the actress playing the FL in "Miss Truth", and if I hadn't seen the actor playing the ML in "Autumn Ballad" previously, I would have said neither of them could actually act!

OMG, don't even get me started on the sound mixing. Dear lord!!!! Never, never have I watched a drama where the FL and ML were heard walking, when they in fact had stopped moving their damn legs!! Can you imagine how frustrating that is??! The FL walks up some stairs and, not only do the sound effects not sink up with her walking, but they don't even stop after she stops walking! And this happened so many times in so many scenes!!

The performances of the leads, and even some of the secondary characters were so terrible, that I can only fault the director for that one, as I have seen these actors do quite well in other productions. The guy playing the.... not really SML (ML's best friend).... more like TML role, outshone everyone else, which was hilarious to watch.

This whole show is like a bad satire of a C drama. Unintentionally hilarious in parts, embarrassingly vacuous at others, and boring throughout.

The screenwriters had to throw in some embarrassing melodrama near the end, because they came to realize that there was no longer any plot, and they were desperate to keep the conflicts going right through to the end of the episodes. They probably didn't even know they were going to have to keep the drama going for so many episodes.
