Kill Heel

Korean Drama "Kill Heel" is a drama with strong female leads who collide for a place with power.

The background stories were pretty interesting, though they flashed by too quickly. The performances were enjoyable as well.

However, the rest of the drama had a lot of issues. The main plot was boring and it was twist after twist that got repetitive. Also, the side characters were used only to fill in the gaps, and ofter were left out completely, with no progress on their stories. Finally, the ending was just okay. There wasn't much explaining when it came to what happened to the past and the whole drama was a letdown.

So, overall, three out of ten.

It's not a good sign when a drama start off on the wrong foot. In this case, we had a poor opening and an equally poor introduction to the story and the characters. Which is unfortunate because earlier parts made it seem worse than it actually is. However, later parts had their own set of problems that were too glaring to ignore. Pacing problems were noticeable after 5-6 episodes. It would have been much smoother watching experience to have the three female leads stories to fully run in parallel. The lack of sensible direction made the drama jarring. At one point, the FL's family was prominent in her life and then they were completely shelved off. Most of the side stories were poorly managed, they started out of nowhere, ended up nowhere and their inclusion did little to nothing. The rivalry within the company and the work environment, which occupied most of its runtime, were all uninteresting in the slightest. With all that being said, after long mundane fights between the three leads, some comebacks were enjoyable but that's where the enjoyable part ended.
