Korean Drama The Golden Spoon was hard to keep up with at times
Story
Seung Chun is a poor student who is being bullied constantly. So when an old lady offers him a golden spoon that allows him to switch lives with whomever he wants, Seung Chun opts for the life of Tae Yong, the wealthiest boy in his school.
Korean Drama The Golden Spoon is a dark story with many twists.
And even though they added too many golden spoons and characters, so it got confusing to keep up with who’s who and what they used to be before they switched, the drama has an intense story that keeps things thrilling till the very end.
Fortunately, the romance was soft and only there to fill in the gaps. Hence, the love triangle didn’t get boring and cheesy. On the other hand, the focus of the drama was more on the family relationships between the characters and the aftermath of their decisions.
The ending, moreover, was perfect for the story and the main hero’s character so far.
