On The Best Thing • Apr 7, 2026
Title The Best Thing
needed to come back here after watching this drama when it first come out because people on social media were always recommending it, but for some reason I never added it to my list of favorite dramas, until I started remembering it. CMIIW because I watched this drama right when it first came out, so I might have forgotten some details. This drama is actually good, but one thing that really bothers me is the FL character. Especially when it comes to putting effort into their relationship. I feel like it’s only the ML who’s always trying to make the relationship work. I didn’t like it when FL rejected ML during his first confession. I know FL has trauma because she just broke up, but even though ML showed his affection, she really enjoyed it and even flirted back, yet when ML confessed, she rejected him. After that, I hoped FL would feel a little guilty after rejecting him and show some effort, but she didn’t. Once again, it’s ML who puts in the effort to keep their relationship going, even though at that time ML needed support because of his relationship with his father. And ML had to make even more sacrifices because FL had to study abroad when they were in a relationship. In their relationship, it’s always ML who helps with the little things. ML helps FL with her insomnia, ML helps FL with her work, ML helps FL with her relationship with her parents. And other little things when they’re on a date at home, it’s always ML who prepares everything, like cooking and so on.
