After reading some comments about this drama, I can see why this drama received lower ratings than what I gave. This is a drama you'll either love or hate because of the crazy cringe-worthy plot; most people will probably not like it though. It's basically a wishy-washy love triangle--who does the male lead really like? Without spoiling the drama, I'll try to explain the main reasons this drama was a crazy watch:

1. A ton of cliche incidents mixed together.
That can be a BIG turn off for sure. For me, I was fine with it because I have a weird taste in drama plots, but for many that may be quite annoying. Mainly I just really liked the sweet moments they brought. It made it feel like the female lead was Cinderella and all her hard work finally paid off.

2. Weak character development.
While there are sweet moments and changes to the characters in the middle, it's not enough. The female lead is always so submissive and considerate for others instead of herself, the male lead is too self-absorbed and is so wishy-washy, and the second female lead is just ridiculous. She's practically crazy, I would say. The most hate-able character isn't the second female lead... honestly it's the male lead. You just want to jump into the scene(s) and strangle him -.-

3. Speechless ending.
No matter who you ship, this ending will NOT be satisfying. In the end you'll be like, wtf are you serious...?? Basically, you put in your heart while watching and it feels like the writers toyed with your emotions completely!

TLDR; Great acting, crazy plot, speechless ending. For most/average drama watchers, this drama is just all over the place and not worth their time, but if you are a sucker for cliches (and the sweet moments that come shortly after) and don't mind the craziness then by all means go for it.

I would rewatch this drama but only the sweet moments and the sad moments with superb acting. This drama is only good for if you're bored out of your mind, not if you're looking for a good watch.

The story started of great, but then it went cliche and messy from the middle to the end.
I suggest everyone to give it a try. Its going to open your mind to a very simple principle: LOVE IS IN THE HEART NOT IN THE MIND.
Youll realize what im the principle means as you watch the drama until the end.
The ML had amnesia and couldnt remember anything about his wife instead he always remembers the thing times he had with his college sweetheart who is now his mistress and also the bestfriend of his wife.But, his HEART remembers all the happy feelings he had with his wife.He has no memory of it but his heart remembers the feeling of love and happiness that he felt from his wife.But then again it was to late.he already hurt his wife and had already planned for a divorce before the amnesia happened.He wanted to take back the decision but couldnt because his mistress was having a psychotic breakout.
He regrets his decision with the raelization that he loves his wife and what he had for his mistress was just a feeling that he had always wanted to be fulfilled but was not given the chance since they separated after college. It was all in his mind,he was curious as to why the his then college gf left without a word and because of that ,the moment he saw her again he was clouded by that curiousity and wanted it sufficed.

music is great..still listening to it
acting was fair
story could have been better.

summary.
WATCH IT!! YOULL REALIZE SOMETHING YOUVE NEVER REALIZED BEFORE.
IT HAS A CHEATING PLOT SO ITS FRUSTRATING
ENDING WAS GOOD IN MY OPINION.
THE FL HAD A GREATEST ENDING .HEAVENLY!!

Annoying

A woman between 32 and 33 can't be that childish and stupid.
How is it possible that in her 3 years of marriage she hadn't noticed her husband doesn't bear with her.
Best friends, what a joke for a two faced person, she says she cares for her friend and now is hurting her under her nose and roof.
He is by far the most selfish guy ever. And the other people around instead of helping the FL are just leading her to more confusion.
This is a simple moronic history that just surpasses the stupidity of human nature.
The second FL took a decision so bear with it. He did it as well and at least try, not anyone gives you that type of kind and selfless love to be ignored, at least try a bit harder.

"Há um ditado cruel que diz que aquele que não é amado é a terceira parte"

Toda a trama de To The Dearest Intruder gira em torno de quem dentre eles é o verdadeiro intruso. É o Yan Hao que se envolveu na relação das duas melhores amigas? A Ji An que foi o motivo dos outros dois não ficarem juntos no passado? Ou a Shiao Quing que se envolveu no casamento dos dois nos tempos atuais?

Depois dos primeiros capítulos dá pra entender porque o dorama teve uma avaliação tão baixa. Mesmo eu, que gosto de clichês, tive dificuldade de engolir alguns acontecimentos finais e até o próprio final. Ainda assim, a história tem pontos bons, tanto que me fez reassistir pela terceira vez.

O BOM

A relação dos melhores amigos durante a faculdade é uma das melhores coisas do dorama. O modo como eles cuidam e apoiam uns aos outros é uma das coisas que me prenderam nos primeiros capítulos. Até mesmo os passeios estranhos de moto (Três pessoas em uma moto, hã?). Amei a Ji An e a relação dela com a amiga dona de um negócio e com o cunhado, é ótimo ver como ela evoluí ao longo dos episódios e deixa de ser a garota apegada e um tanto submissa. Os episódios não são tão cansativos (no começo) e a tensão faz você assistir um atrás do outro.

A série também passa muitas lições importantes sobre o valor de uma amizade, sobre amor próprio, sobre o impacto de uma traição na vida de todos ao redor. Ensina que cada um ama e demonstra esse amor de uma forma diferente (alguns demostram cuidando do outro, outros demonstram fazendo o possível para ver o outro bem, alguns expressam isso com mais facilidade que o outro, coisas assim). Mas uma das melhores lições é sobre o impacto que causamos na vida de quem amamos, quando não somos sinceros.

O RUIM

Depois do episódio dez parece que tudo vai ladeira abaixo. Adimito que empurrei os últimos com a barriga sendo que o único motivo de continuar assistindo era a Ji An. Yan Hao era até legal, mas depois da passagem de tempo ficou insuportável e não teve nada que me fizesse gostar outra vez do personagem. Shao Quing era uma personagem que eu gostava, mas depois da metade da história, todo o progresso dela parece ser jogado no lixo. E tem o fato de todos esconderem um certo segredo da Ji An, literalmente TODOS os personagens sabem e nem os amigos dela decidem contar.

Na minha opinião é um dorama que vale a pena assistir sim, mesmo com os desastrosos cinco últimos episódios. As atuações são boas e as ost maravilhosas.

Malisimo

Confieso que vi todos los episodios solo porque leí una reseña que decía que el final era algo inesperado... Pero no fue fácil!
Los personajes son como una burla con exageraciones y clichés mal utilizados, adultos que actúan como idiotas y el triangulo amoroso totalmente asexual... Unas mujeres carentes de autoestima y un hombre patético sobrevalorado. Gente tóxica, psicótica e idiota todos andando juntos haciéndose daño y "amándose" unos a otros.
No deja ningún mensaje, solo sentí desesperación porque terminara y cuando terminó sentí un profundo arrepentimiento de haber perdido mas de 16 horas que me hubiesen servido para disfrutar de otro drama.
