Draggy but soothing - rather weak romance
There is something soothing about the tone of this romantic drama about a rich older divorced Hotel CEO lady and a young man who works at her hotel. The Cuba parts are quite enchanting. But things slow down back in Seoul.The smiles are a big feature here. Park Bo Gum smiles a lot from big out of place grins to half smiles. Song Hye Kyo seems too laid back and gives weak smiles too often. The romance has kissing but they behave more like friends than passionate lovers. In law interference from both sides rich and poor. The impact on the poor side is quite interesting for a change it is usually the other way round. Also the ex husband wanting to get her back is weak and just a plot device. The downfall of the powerful seems a contrived. She actually looked better with her ex husband.
score 5/10
