I really like this drama but I also agree that this trope is a bit annoying. We will also inevitably will get a separation/drama once her family finds out about his dad, etc.

He needs to hurry up and get together with her because it will save his so much money by not having to buy new cars, lol 😆

I think what the drama tried to show (not sure if it’s successful or not) that the couple kind of drifted apart as the husband was busy with work, stopped involving 2FL in decisions, and didn’t keep her on top of his mind overall (like the incident with him forgetting their 2nd wedding anniversary). And since they were a relatively new couple, had no kid(s) or other obligations, it was better to go their separate ways than to endure this longer.
Not saying this is right or wrong, but that’s what the drama tried to show

People are saying it’s coming on Tuesday 🤔

I’m kidding, of course. But, in a grand scheme of things, childhood connection is a harmless trope in my eyes. It was less annoying than “having controlling parent(s)”, “breakup due to a misunderstanding”, “breakup for no good reason”, “binge drinking”, or countless others 😬

Are we REALLY sure? Maybe kid FL passed by the stadium collapse site and gave a candy to ML or hugged him? 😁🤣

I see your point :)
As an outsider, if a drama is based on a good novel (or has good screenwriter) and has a good cast, my expectation is that it should be good. So that’s why I wasn’t surprised here :)

Haters! 😳

I haven’t watched every single C-drama in 2025 but my hidden gems are The Best Thing (knew nothing about it beforehand) and When Destiny Brings the Demon (sizzling chemistry and censors who clearly fell asleep during review process, lol).
Mobius was also a bit of a dark horse but not sure it can be called a surprise :)

The same writer also wrote “You Are My Glory” and you can view 2ML here as an alternate-universe version of ML in YAMG. Both of them rejected FLs in their youths, both had feelings of inadequacy, but one of them was able to deal with it & got the glory (🥰) while other one did not

Super happy for the drama team but is this really a surprise? The is drama based on a novel by a talented writer and starring well-known actors.

Later this year there’s going to be a third drama in Hidden Love/The First Frost universe (the writer of which also wrote When I Fly Towards You) and will have a well known cast. Are we going to be surprised if that one turns out well? 😬😁

Thank you! Where was it aired originally? I don’t see it on the app unless I missed something 😳

A comment from a clearly fake/burner account. Best to block it and move on

They did a good job showing evolution of the characters, especially FL :)

Childhood connections is a well-worn trope in C-dramas too :) But in this drama we have a tragic childhood for ML (because of his dad) AND to make it even more stressful we have a connection between his dad and her dad (and not a good connection). I know everything is going to be resolved amicably but still makes me a bit anxious. I can appreciate a drama like that but I must confess to enjoying those rare few dramas where leads get along with their families and families get along with each other :)

This drama would be even MORE enjoyable if they didn’t add a fated connection between fathers of FL & ML. We really need a rule that a drama can have only one of (a) tragic childhood upbringing or (b) unfortunate connection between leads’ families 😳😬

Yeah, we all know how this will end. But hopefully the journey won’t go off the rails 🙏

Translator did a good job! 👏

Out of everything that happened in episodes 1 & 2, focusing on her behavior at the party is giving that moment too much weight. In the heart of it, the core themes of this drama are pretty relevant, especially given low birth rates in Korea (along with many other countries).

Most definitely a red flag 🚩

This is a very good drama as long as your expectations are accurate. It’s not a romcom but a more thoughtful drama about imperfect people trying to understand each other while dealing with their fears, doubts and self-criticism. There are also multiple twists/discoveries along the way ;)
