omg I've just dropped TES today too, couldnt take it anymore and I'm coming to watch this one to relax!!! hope I like it too!!

I watched a series with Miles Wei (Flourished Peony and In the Name of Blossom) and I have to say, he's a really good actor. I hope they cast him in more serious series like that............. Anyway starting this one today because I love Liu Xie Ning too!

And like I said too! I didnt attack anyone and what I said comes exclusively from my own opinion! All good!!!

English isnt my first language so sometimes I might literally translate things into english that end up sounding different from what I meant. But my point was: I have no problem with the actors at ALL and I don't hate them. I genuinely just didn't like the series, I didn't like the characters or the way they were, and I think the actors charisma and chemistry were the only things that kept me going until episode 20. But I was kind of waiting for her to WAKE UP and tell him to fuck off, and when I saw that was never going to happen (and then got spoiled that they actually get married) I got even more mad (AND I AM NOT A CRAZY PURSUIT OF JADE FAN, DESPITE HAVING WATCHED IT AND PROBABLY GIVEN IT A GOOD RATING, I AM NOT ATTACKING THIS SERIES HERE, OKAY!!!)

Yep I also think it was the chemistry between the two of them that kind of carried the series. That's what made me watch up to episode 20 hahaha after that I couldn't take it anymore 😭😭😭

And I'm speaking from my own point of view, not as a fan of anything........ I'm not crazy like that. In fact, I think the fan wars here are ridiculous, lowering series ratings just because of petty fights! I strongly condemn that.

This used to be a place where I always shared my opinions and views, and it's so annoying when people treat that as the result of crazy parasocial fans who can't enjoy things without ruining it for others.

I didn't enjoy the series (my own opinion) because I genuinely didn't like the story! The actors are SO good in their roles that I actually had to stop myself from "getting angry at them" (figurative speech, guys)!

For goodness sake, let's calm down!! And please respect opinions that are different from yours...... no one is obligated to like the same things.

They did not get involved within 3 days of her starting work. She had been working for months already. She signed her permanent job contract on September 18th, 2012, they slept together on April 11th, 2013. It is shown on screen.

Explanation to add: Just to explain, that was a hyperbole, a figure of speech—I exaggerated it on purpose.

It is mentioned that she has had only one previous relationship, not multiple partners. He is more experienced than she is, so her hesitancy, not DUMBNESS is quite justified.

Explanation to add: I'm speaking from my own point of view! From what I saw in the series, it only mentions that she had one previous relationship. It's an opinion-based comment from my perspective!

She is not the one that talked about "the art of love", it was her friend who spoke about it.

Explanation to add: Yes, she is the one who talks about it right at the beginning! And if not, it might be a translation issue because I watched it with Portuguese subtitles and I'm not fluent in Chinese!

?? I did watch POJ, but I wouldn't say I'm a fan. I liked the series, thought it was good, but there were things I didn't like too! I'm not commenting as a 'series fan' or an 'actor fan', it's just my opinion and my point of view watching the series. I don't want to start any trouble or anything. I always share my opinions here, and I ask that if you disagree, at least respect me! Thank you!!!!

AND BTW I FORGOT TO MENTION BUT HIS PERSONALITY IS INSUFFERABLE HE treats her so badly like she's an idiot and he knows everything in the world. IN THE END THE TWO CHARACTERS ACTUALLY DESERVE EACH OTHER THEY WILL JUST MAKE EACH OTHER'S LIVES HELL FOREVER

I saw everybody hyped about this and maybe I went in expecting way too much, but since episode 4 I've been struggling to keep watching. Her character PLAYS SO DUMB, "oh she arrives in the big city to work at a big firm and is so innocenntttt" and within 3 days on the job she already sleeps with her boss, simply UNBEARABLE. She acts all innocent and like a goody two shoes, but she is totally playing dumb.............. She does this whole push and pull thing with him early on, typical of someone with a lot of relationship experience and she even says something to her friend about "the art of love" or something like that. Other than that, he is handsome and charming (she is too, they make a cute couple and have good chemistry) but I hated both of their personalities. The story kept getting worse and worse to the point that I will have to drop it, otherwise I will start hating both actors and won't be able to watch anything else with them.

Yep, totally! She is way too good at her game, I am SHOCKED!!!!!!!! I stand by what I said earlier about her being so good that sometimes it feels like she is still on the clock when dealing with men, but she definitely has a malicious streak in how she handles all of them. And I also agree that the girls working as hostesses really need to take notes and learn hahahahaha.

I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING I SAID DEFENDING MIMI OMG YOU GUYS WERE RIGHT I WAS SO NAIVE

I'm going to defend Mimi here: she is a woman 9 years older than most of the girls there, and she has been through a lot in life (being a host and having more experience with men). When she sees the younger girls doing those things, she tries to WARN them... her choice of words might not be the best, but she is definitely giving them advice.

And I don't see her acting differently around men versus women, I see someone who has worked as a host for a long time and is the number 1. I believe she naturally puts up this barrier regarding how she should be and carry herself to entertain at work. She is a professional, and perhaps she does this unconsciously as a work habit, just as we've seen other host girls on this show do, and even Kazuma, who was also a host (participant in part 1) and also had these high walls regarding how to carry himself. And since most of the younger girls there are hosts too, if I were them, I would stop and listen to what such a good and influential senior in my field does and says.

I'm feeling this way too... and I saw a scene on twitter that put me off SO badly. It was both of them in what was supposed to be an airplane? A helicopter? I don't know, but it was SO bad that I just decided NOT to watch it. I came here just to take it off my watchlist haha

I honestly thought she was really fun and funny right from the start. Her relationship with Ha Gi was so fun, it was what kept me watching. It was really disappointing when out of nowhere they threw in a romance with her idol and she got all like, 'ohhh I don't know if I love him out of admirationnn or because I actually looove him....' even though she had a thousand times more contact and development with Ha Gi. If they were going to include this relationship with her idol, they should have put it at the beginning and then developed things with Ha Gi later. I don't know, I'm just so mad they ruined this show, it was so much fun

I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAID BUT I'M GONNA SAY IT OUT LOUD AND ADD THIS: DA REUM PLAYS SO DUMB!!!!!!!! SHE PLAYS SO INNOCENT she's all like ohhh I'm so confuseddd

It's a real problem for idols who don't have peace because of sasaengs and fans who think they shouldn't date. These fans have a parasocial relationship with the idol (thinking that because the idol already has their fans, they shouldn't be romantically involved with anyone else).

What I meant is: they try really hard to make it seem like she ISN'T a sasaeng, and that the 'real' sasaengs and crazy fans are the ones coming after her. BUT IF YOU PAY ATTENTION, SHE STALKED HIM FIRST ALL THE WAY TO HIS JOB LOL.

I think her getting involved with her idol halfway through kinda ruined everything for me in the story, since the romance with her boss was already developing so well lol. It was just unnecessary drama...

I thought it was gonna be something like Her Private Life, where the main character clearly separates BEING A FAN from having actual romantic feelings for someone. Nam Da Reum just plays the innocent card way too much, and to me, she DID cross the line into being a sasaeng. I feel like this script shouldn't have been made given the fact that there are a huge number of fans in Korea who are sasaengs with parasocial relationships with idols, making their lives a living hell, invading their privacy, and stalking them. The writers lacked common sense......... (sorry to make a whole issue out of this, but this show basically tells a sasaeng that if she stalks an idol to his workplace/company, he will fall MADLY in love with her).

guys WHAT happened here? wtf the beginning was so fun and funny and from the middle to the end just problems and sadness wow what is thisss

Just starting episode 11 and the difference in behavior is insane. When Sharan shared a trauma very similar to Maririn's, Rune immediately asked if she was emotionally okay now. Meanwhile, not a SINGLE guy in Part 1 ever bothered to ask Maririn that, not even when the girls confronted them. It just shows they couldn't even offer the bare minimum. Honestly, I think all the men from Part 1 should have just stayed single anyway
