People are Scary


I feel like this drama is so realistic and relatable on certain aspect to most people. It tells a story of the bitter sweetness of life, it tells a story of how a women life goes from being perfect to being a living hell. At first, the 1st male lead and the 1st female lead together with their child, on the outside looked like the perfect traditional family. I mean on one side you have the female lead who graduated from a top university and is now a stay at home mom, who takes real good care of their child, and the her in laws, on the other side you have the male lead who has a good job and appears to be a good father and husband. Well that until the female lead finds of that her husband is cheating on her. Then her whole world starts falling apart.

This drama also tells a story of friendship. The female lead finds out who her husband is dating and through a series of events befriends her. They develop a strong and beautiful friendship. Together they fight the injustice of this world and the injustices brought upon them by this man. Wait, this is not the only friendship that the female lead makes. She also befriends her husband colleague Wei, who is also being cheated on by her husband. This friendship too turns out to be beneficial later on in her career.

One of the biggest themes of this dram is betrayal. The 1st female lead is betrayed by the man she trusted the most, her husband. He cheats on her multiple times, then leaves her for a younger and richer girl. He leaves her and their daughter with no money and home. He even uses their daughter as a weapon, to get his wife to agree to his divorce terms. When they are finally divorced he gets remarried. You would think he would then leave her alone, that no he comes after her carrier, and she eventually has to leave her job. Not, only that he tries multiple times to to get the 2nd female lead fired too, but he is unsuccessful. The 1st female lead is also female lead is also betrayed by her in laws. The same in laws she catered for all this years, betrayed her within a blink of an eye. Because the new bide is wealthy, they kidnap the leads daughter so she can sign the divorce papers. The 2nd female is is betrayed by the male lead, who at first keeps the fact that he is married a secret, then tries to get her fired. She is also betrayed by her later on boyfriend, who happens to be her colleague. She is also betrayed by her mother, who fails to love her over and over again. This drama shows the very scary side of humans, who they can change over night. How people say this and do the complete opposite.

All is fair in love. The female lead has a new love interest after the divorce, an old childhood friend who adores her. The second her too moves on from the male lead and her colleague, to a tech guy. So far he seems like a real deal. The male lead 2nd marriage is miserable, his in laws dont rate him and his new wife is a spoiled rat. The new wife does not get along with the rotten in laws. The 2nd female lead cuts off her mom. At the end of the day everyone gets what they deserve.

Straight forward romance

This drama gives us something most dramas do not, which is grown ups acting it grown ups. I for one get tired of mostly female leads acting like high school girls. Not knowing what they want, and being to needy. The female in this drama is independent and knows exactly who is is, does not need constant assurance from the male lead.

This drama has no clingyness at all, and the romance story is completely realistic. Also, this drama has a sexyness overload. The male lead is drop dead handsome and super sexy. He does give off a lot of play boy vibes. But not too much, that it will make you lose interest.
