EP 18: At least the FL wasn't petty and childish again. Her reaction after finding out who he was is more in line with what I would have expected from her throughout the drama. Had they kept her personality consistent I wouldn't have lost interest in some portions.

Ever since their former elementary school classmate was introduced into the story I've enjoyed the drama less and less. It's not specifically his character itself that's the source of my dislike though. He's literally nothing but annoying, but I feel like the story has also stalled again, completely. I started liking the FL less and less for various reasons too. The second couple's story would be interesting but it's not enough to carry the rest of the show which just keeps going downhill. I've gone from mostly enjoying the drama to mostly skipping scenes and just trying to force myself to finish just so I know what happens. I'm on ep 17 and the main couple still isn't together. For someone who says she likes the ML the FL is constantly angry with him and his spent most of the drama either giving him attitude or the cold shoulder. The ML is constantly helping her and doing things for her in big ways. She finds out about them then acts like she's happy and crushing again, only to proceed to treat him like shit again for another reason not long after. From the beginning she's the one who says she's liked him but I've yet to see her do anything to actually show any sincerity in her feelings.

Once again, things had started flowing again but ep 14 has been pissing me off on so many levels. In a nutshell, they keep throwing in all these annoyances just to slow down any progress in the relationship between the leads, solely for the purpose of dragging out the story...as if the shit wasn't moving along slowly enough! The methods they are using to do this are super immature and annoying and not at all cute or funny so now I'm irritated. I may just start skipping scenes. So disappointing. More so BECAUSE the drama has been enjoyable for the most part thus far. Why can't the writers just keep a damn flow going?

Things fell into groove again there for a bit there but then, in ep 11, the FL's immature and irresponsible behavior, all due to her being hurt and angry with the ML, became a bit of a turnoff. It would have been more consistent had she given him the cold shoulder but the way she was constantly starting fights and being petty was...my first bit of dislike for the drama. It's not like it was the first time they'd fallen out so it just seems out of character and unnecessary. I don't like that I'm forcing my way through the episode. I just wish they'd move on already.

UPDATE: Okay it looks like it'll only last for that single episode because by the end she starts finding out about some of what he's done for her behind the scenes. I still think it was unnecessary for then to have her character devolve as much as they did for most of this episode though. It just doesn't fit.

The story (all aspects of it) is progressing sooooooooooooo slowly, my gawd. It still somehow has been keeping my attention and interest thus far but I'm just about to begin ep 7 and I'm starting to get fidgety...

So because she thinks her man is dead she goes ahead and marries such a detestable person? I get the whole idea that she's settling because she has no hope of having real love again if the ML is dead, but to marry someone so despicable? Really? I cannot accept that part of the story. It devalues it.

I will say that even though I was right about him being the 'missing' boyfriend, that I was still somehow surprised that I was right when it came out. That's extremely rare. I'm surprised that I was surprised about being right! LOL!

Oh and I want to live in the ML's loft. It's so cool!

You're so right. I couldn't do it.

Forget it. I don't even care to know anymore. I thought this was at least becoming tolerable (even though there was still so much I dislike about the movie - like, she's a doctor but doesn't think to check into her randomly just fainting like that, as though it's something normal??? Clearly she should never, ever have received her license to practice) but when she just started touching his shit (the wife's photo) and rudely invading his privacy the way she did I just reached my limit. I'm not wasting any more of my time on this drama. That FL disgusts me.

Okay, I need a question answered to help me decide if I should at least continue on with the drama. I've made it exactly 17 mins in (to the scene on the bridge where she slips) and while the FL character has disgusted me thus far I hadn't actually considered dropping this yet. However, it seems like they're now trying to make light of her horrible personality to try to push the cute and fluffy aspect of the romance forward, by just glossing over it all. That's a gigantic turnoff for me.

Is this pretty much what I can expect from the drama? If so, I'm not bothering to continue as it's just ruining my mood. Does she ever get called out on her ugliness or forced to face her own horrible nature?

Thank goodness for firefighters and chickies. I'll survive this. Whew!

I'm going to have to rewatch W or some other Han Hyo Joo drama after this just so I don't hate her with a passion due to this damn role.

OMG OMG OMG whoever took the lead on writing this script is a chauvinistic prick. How dare they make a comment like that about Cleopatra! What in hell am I watching right now!!!

I really wish the ML had called her out more when she approached him about the suit. Maybe if he didn't know the full story behind what had happened or the role she played in it though...hopefully.

Did you actually watch the entire movie? I'm literally not even 15 mins into this yet and am ready to call it quits.

OMG! Make that TWO bitches! Her lawyer! MY GOD! Who wrote this!

MY GOD I'm just 10 mins into this and I've never wanted to see a woman get her ass beat so much in my damn life. I don't even care who does it - man, woman, donkey, anything works. Even seeing her trampled by an elephant would give me satisfaction. That FL character literally made me nauseous.

OMG I just realized from your comment that I stopped before she gets even worse. Holy shit. I stopped to comment on here right when she had the gall to complain about losing her nonexistent "skills" because of her suspension. What angered me about that wasn't even the fact that that THING ("bitch" is far too kind of a word for her) felt literally not even an inkling of remorse but that they only suspended her license temporarily and she wasn't even fired. That...THING needed to permanently lost her license and be banned from ever going near a patient ever again. She should have been all over the gd news.

I had already decided to continue watching this just because I want to see how they can miraculously make her into a good character deserving of being loved by the ML but when it hit me that she still isn't done with her disgusting behavior yet...I think I'm gonna need to have alcohol handy before I try watching this further. Thank heavens this isn't a drama series.

My GOD I cannot remember a time when I absolutely detested a FL character this damn much, and only after 10 mins of watching. Not only does that....THING ("bitch" would be too kind of a word to refer to that...the other word that comes to mind is far too graphic to use on MDL) almost allow a patient to DIE all because she ASSUMED the patient was being abused by her husband (and chose NOT to report it because it would be too much of a hassle), that said husband was a gangster all because of a tat (since she clearly felt that the hippocratic oath she took was merely nothing more than singing lines to some random pop song out loud) and doesn't bother actually check the patient before discharging her but when said patient almost DOES die due to her severe negligence she has the gall to get mad for being punished! The fact that doctors like this exist in real life makes it so much worse AND to know that they are ever even allowed to go near a patient again makes me quite literally want to throw up.

I absolutely LOVED Secret Love Affair so my issue with this isn't the cheating - which, of course, I'm not a fan of - but I get the point behind telling the story from the perspective of the lovers involved is what I'm saying. However, the leads in Secret Love Affair weren't immoral, selfish wastes of air. Not like the FL in this one was. Of course I have my issue with the ML in this since he really pushed the FL to cross the line - so at first I felt some compassion towards her - but then how she handled things in the end (leaving her son to go off and fuck somewhere and then abandoning him completely; and also utterly and devastatingly betraying her little sister in the way she did) made me hate her the most.

Okay. Contrary to the other opinions on here I would have been able to tolerate this more had they not eluded to them having their happily ever after in Brazil. They'll obviously see each other once deboarding the plane.

I'm a mother, a divorcee and I have sisters. I completely get falling in love with the wrong person at the wrong time too. It hasn't happened to me but I do understand. Let's ignore the adultery aspect of this story completely and put the rest into context. The reality is this woman

1) completely betrays her sister...her only family...someone who completely looked up to her. Betrayal of that level would destroy someone to the core of their being. Let's not even mention the betrayal by her fiance' on top of it. Look at where she went after he finally told her he loved someone else! Straight to her sister. The person she believed loved her the most in the world. This also happens shortly after their father dies too so this chick is now completely alone.
2) completely abandoned her son. Completely.

The way she fucked these people over isn't something they can just get past. She has completely ruined them for life.

I get desperation. I get that they feel addicted to one another. I even get that shit like this can happen between sisters. But her fucking son! As a mother, I cannot fathom abandoning my child to be with a goddamn man. He, of course, will eventually find out the truth about what happened with his mother. Think about the mental and emotional damage that woman caused! Had there not been a child involved I could still dig deep to try to be more understanding but Jesus Christ! As it is, I hope the goddamn plane crashes and everyone but them survives!

Was there no solution for them and their situation? Yes, there goddamn was.

First, things never should have gone as far as they had. Period. Their behavior was lust, not love. Had they kept their hands off one another and still developed the feelings they did - which I'm not saying they couldn't have done; it's quite possible they could have - then they could have realized that TIMING was really their biggest issue.

There's so many ways they could have done things better. They should have split from their significant others then given one another some distance (he should have gone back to the US). The FL should have raised her goddamn son properly. If after some time had passed (a couple of years at least) they still couldn't let go of one another then it would be okay to give things a try.

The key is she should have raised her damn son. They should have ended their relationships and kept their distance until they could be together properly and respectfully both for themselves and for those around them. Instead I'm just disgusted.

Wait wait wait. From the synopsis, forget the adultery and noona aspect, didn't this just say the guy was her younger sister's fiance'! Like how goddamn immoral of a human being can this FL be? Part of me wants to watch this just to see how and why in hell people seem to be raving about this in the comments below, and even in the reviews. The other part of me is utterly disgusted by the thought of such a character.

Just finished this and I cannot believe how hooked I ended up becoming after the first couple of episodes. I definitely see why someone else commented that they could have added a couple more episodes too, not for any other reason that curiosity about what might possibly happen next. This turned out to be really damn good. Only more mature viewers would be able to really appreciate the story and the romance though.

Lord oh lord the acting. Bless their hearts. LOL! Also, the styling (clothes, hair, all of it!). I couldn't believe it when I just saw that this was released last year!

A Yakuza business card! LMAOOOOO! What in ever-loving hell did I just start watching? Disney+ produced this??
