People cursing an actor cause he dared to turn down a marriage proposal by a,...FAN lol using the excuse of age gap (i mean what should he say to a crazy fan who... proposes)
Ant nobody suggests that a person who proposes marriage to an actor in dms
should get professional help
This world is crazy indeed

😂😂😂😂😂 literally me in many dramas comment section

They went down the melodrama road and im afraid they will keep going that way

One of the main reasons i ve started some good quality bls . Never disappoint on that aspect
Though there are exceptions in both kdramas and chinese ones with plenty of romance

I meant somehow appropriate for 2 lovers separated for so many years with so much trauma etc but ok i expected what you said.... Not that exciting is what i also thought it would be since the beginning
Thanks!

I dropped and just fast forwarded some later episodes but can anyone answer me, did the mains had any decent kissing scenes ?

Hate me but the screen writer also wasted time with the older version main leads. The youngers stole the show since ep 1. And to think that im not at all into teens romance. But those 2 kids were soooo good in acting and characterwise

Yeap, a cold and distant behavior would be much more appropriate from a character so lonely and traumatized plus a girl who grew up without parents
Im very concerned about how they will make her handle the whole thing. Reason is, i didnt like that a woman in her 40s or a bit younger, is not just having that (of course horrible and hard to deal) father loss trauma in such an early age, but she formed the belief that he abandoned her. I mean, when you re a kid, you blame your dead parent for abandoning you, but then the anger is not there, when you grow up you still have (if you have) the loss trauma but not anger.
Its not realistic if they go down that way ..."my dad abandoned me cause he threw himself in a fire" wtf
I d like to see a grown up woman who deals with her early age loss of her only parent and against all odds she managed to succeed in her work, be competitive etc but not a childish "angry to dad cause he...died"
Kdrama writers of that genre often write as if their audience is about 10 yo or so. Well, if thats also the case here, at least i hope they ll give us some decent intimate scenes and a good romance, cause if i have to throw my logic out of the window, i need a good reason hahahahah

Yeap i know. She's not the first toxic and totally abusive boss we ve ever seen in dramas (and sadly in real life too). I just wanted to point out the kdrama obsession with shitty bosses who are justified by their trauma or whatever
And to my defense, im always in for really bad character hahahhaahha
i just never justify them, no matter their character growth or else.
I dive into the story and thats all. But i find people with power and authority in working environments, who treat their co workers or subordinates in a harsh and abusive way, really shitty ones cause they re taking advantage of other people's need to survive. Its just so opposite to my morals -and i think for most people out there is the same.

The list of the things she wants to be her way, is already long: from the papers she wants in certain angle and her coffee temperature from a certain coffee shop (your co workers or secretaries are not your servants to begin with) to her behavior. Our personal ocds and whatever whims we got, have no place in our working environment cause they make others lives difficult. Its just that in South Korea and so many other places in the world, being an as@ as a boss, is the rule with a few exceptions.
Overworked? Its her choice. No worker is obliged to overwork himself without being paid equally. People should work only for thei time they are paid and thats a working right that humanity gained through many bloody fights through history.
We just justify everything cause we re just watching a drama-of course i know that that's why im enjoying every drama without being triggered.
But these behaviors are not justified by any trauma or anything in general.

as for her co workers, the first reaction to the new secretary was: RUN.
well, people dont rebel in their working environment, at least not openly, because workers all over the world NEED their job, plus, in South Korea, to keep your job is even harder than finding one.

Now, if we re talking about the drama itself:
if the writers want to justify her behavior in a really mature way (which rarely happens in kdramas lets face it)
the excuse of the dad being killed in a fire where he threw himself (obviously to save someone) its not an excuse that can be digested from a mature audience.
Of course its a huge trauma to lose your only parent in such an early age and in such a horrible situation, but to be mad at him because he left you ...its something that only a kid would think and even without psychotherapy, when you grow up you know that is not the case. You just have to work on your loss trauma not with some kind of anger as they want to present here.
I really hope they wont go down that road and give a really realistic depiction of her character

I like it so far but i cant help noticing another ceo (no matter the gender, people with power are...people with power ) treating her co workers like trash. Yeap i know its a drama, just wanted to point that out
Workplaces are hell in capitalism
Ok ok i shut my big mouth up lol

While we re watching the first story version, where the ML goes back and makes the right choice, Tonkla's brother is alive-we see him at the hospital waking up and being asked things by the surgeon
In the same version, we watch his brother going to identify his corpse, mourning him etc.
This is a major mistake, confusing everyone even after finishing the whole thing

Ok there 's a HUGE mistake in early episodes
read the following comment under spoiler

Literally me! That f@ stone had his brother s blood WHEN THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?? And who is that brother anyway???
(still on ep 6, as im hooked in that 4min loop, i love the whole aesthetics)

Western women complaining about sex scenes...oh boy thats bad news!

As a straight western woman who LOVES good quality love stories on screen, be it a straight or gay couple (of course when watching bls i enjoy it more than gls cause ok i like men so the more the better lol) I cant even imagine a love story without sex scenes. But i often read here complaints by women-mostly asian or from Arabic countries that are strongly against any kind of intimacy that goes beyond the dead fish pecks. I blame it on their conservative background. I really dont wanna think they express the neopuritanistic trend of our era.
I m often in shock reading adult women here, asking if the bed scenes are...for real.

The actor who plays Yai just nailed it.
The guy really knows how to embody a person who is so in love, with all his face and body, even the way he's breathing, is spectacular.
Jom on the other hand...i dont know if its the actor or the director-since i havent watched any of his previous works, but he was just awkward. Often his expressions turn from sweet hubby to a shy teen, other times he looks confused with no reason at all. If there were another actor playin Jom, the couple would be awsome!
I really cant forget Yai's face when every time he enters a room and Jom is there, he is literally glowing. I hope he ll take more main roles in the future-i was really impressed.
And let me reminisce his young boy's face with THAT body, not over toned, just perfect.

There's the special episode 13 with a super happy ending as i ve read

Hahahh Something like that but it covers the hole area (women use it too). They often make it invisible when post editing the scenes
Now with AI they can also create the scene with the bodies without the actors involved in real time
Yeah don't think too much, its better to not know cause too much knowledge destroys the magic!

Dark
Ugly
Violent
Outrageous
Dirty
Disgusting movie
Like that f@ human need to live
To survive no matter the pain the grief the loss the desire to end the suffering
