Misleading, slow, Manipulative, Out of context. Don't waste time on this series.

Had written review before. When I was at episode 13, being attacked just because I didn't watch whole series and gave a review. I finished yesterday, so here it is.
I will keep this in points. Loopholes. Deserved better.
1. Tried to portray Main lead as very intelligent, charming mystery novelist, who single handedly solved the murder of the Actress Baek soo jung even figured out in the first meeting that her assistant is an NIS agent, just because he caught eggs with his bare hands. But she could not figure out her husband was cheating on her, there were so many clues, so many evidences.
2. Title's not justified at all. Cheat on me if you can. Her husband cheated on her, her father cheated on her mother. Neither of the contexts were covered. Instead, another political dimension came into the picture, irrelevant to the plot. And in the end, the activist that was made to have an ulterior motive in order to have Lawyer made as assemblyman, I mean, was also made a mere waste of time including it the the story. That content has nothing to do with storyline at all.
3. Development of characters at worst. NIS involvement proved nothing in the end, just for a novel, secret prayer room, whose entire mystery wasn't unfolded either. I guess writer thought, audience would figure it out themselves .
4. Flaws of characters is understood. Not the way they just flipped the behaviour of the main leads out of the blue during last few episodes, where the clever Kang yeo joo, was now just a traumatised little girl, with little knowledge of what is going on around her in her own house.
5. Dull ending. Slow process of unfolding if storyline, lost track of the main motive, and finished the series like the writer's are in so much rush. I really want these writers to come forward and resign.

6. How a drunk husband paying to kill her wife in the beginning was made as the most powerful weapon to make audience stick till the end. And it turned out the HUGE DRAWBACK of the whole series. Like a rat coming out after digging a whole mountain.

7. the way kang yeo joo, the most inquisitive person in the whole show, just let's go the Biggest question as to why she's being misunderstood as the culprit of actress's murder is most misleading to the portrayal of her character. And even though she doesn't knows the reason, she did mention about affair of the actress and the lawyer in her novel in the show. And in the end, including real names of the characters makes it more contradicting, as to how is she playing dumb or blind to her husband's cheating while she writes her novel exactly the way it happened .
Misleading in every way possible, not justifiable.
