One too many stare-downs made for ineffective, boring cliffhangers. And I felt like that’s what Heirs was doing going in circles a lot, but with nothing substantial happening, for way too long. The episodes just went in circles around that one theme. For each of those seasons, our female lead was still in love with McDreamy, pretty much. Kinda like Grey’s Anatomy, which I followed for something like 3 seasons. In that sense, watching Heirs felt like watching an American soap which goes on indefinitely, season upon season, and no one and nothing essentially changes from episode to episode. But Heirs, at 20 episodes long, seemed to take forever and then some to get going in earnest with its story. Which wouldn’t be such a problem if this were a long-running daily with an episode count upwards of 150. By the time we were 12 – TWELVE! – whole episodes in, it hardly felt like we’d gotten our foot out the door. I wanted to like this, I really did.Īs we entered the first couple of episodes, I assumed the slow pace was simply an effect of us being in the set-up episodes, and that once the necessary pieces were properly put in place, that we’d really get started on our story. Here’s the OST album in case you’d like to listen to it while you read the review. And indifference, I realize, is really not a very inspiring place to be. Pleasant enough but far from cracky, Heirs is a show that never fired up my emotions one way or the other.
Just don’t expect a properly fleshed out story or robust character & relationship development arcs.

On the plus side, Kim Woo Bin is the resident scene-stealer (and he steals those scenes, so well), while several other secondary characters are likable and amusing. I n actual fact, though, the show doesn’t really want to do anything except provide a platform for its OTP to go through the requisite angsty steps (angsty coz this is ultimately more melo than rom-com) to get to their happy-ever-after, which was a given from the very beginning (ok, the happy ending’s sorta more rom-com).
