I know it ia unfair to judge the new female lead role but for me the charisma of the first lead role and the on acreen chemistry of medouk and jang uk was very much appreciated. Although the new lead role has her beauty and acting skills but the leading lady in season one has a natural acting that you can feel like she is acting at ease as she potraits her role as natural and very light that you can feel it. I still watched the two episodes of season 2 but i cannot feel the real characteristic of the new leading lady.
I completely agree…. it just doesn’t feel the same. She has her own charms and beauty, but it feels less…. every…. with Mu Deok-i gone. Her and Jang Uk’s chemistry felt real. And her eyes gave such depth to any character she portrays. I miss her!
