Encounter is definitely not breaking much in the way of new ground (the female chaebol and male middle class role reversal is the notable exception) but I'm ok with that because everything it's doing is extremely high quality. Acting = top tier. Talent = fantastic. Music = great so far. Wardrobe and locales = everyone wants to dress and look like Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo and visit Cuba.
Basically, everytime there's a new episode my eyeballs are glued to the screen for an hour and I find myself either grinning like an idiot or scowling at the screen depending on what's going on. In terms of addictiveness its up there with What's Wrong with Secretary Kim which I consider 2018's guilty pleasure. Everyone else can be as negative as they want to be but in the meantime I am having a blast.
