I am very frustrated at this drama – the story is very interesting, cinematography is good, acting ranges from very good to excellent, but the ‘official’ English sub is rubbish. It is not capable of making sense of plot motivations and explaining events. What a waste of the rest of the good work!
Thanks for sharing your experience! Sorry to hear that the English subs aren’t well-matched to the dialogue :'( Hopefully they improve on it for future eps!
