Yes, me too.

1. Physical attraction, both in the novel and the drama. The epilogue at episode 20 shows that he noticed her when they first met.
2. It is not portrayed in the drama, but in the novel they first met at a coffee shop, he noticed her upright sitting posture and demeanour which made him intrigued. And after spending some time interacting with her at work and noticing her tenacity, perseverance, eagerness to learn and the fact that she was also attracted to him.

And like I said, I'm honestly not attacking you.
I don't care if you're a Pursuit of Jade fan or not.

I just wanted to clarify any misconceptions from your comment. Which we have done.

I am not attacking you. Like I said in my last paragraph, your personal experience or feelings about the drama is not something I can change or influence. Just wanted to correct some misconceptions that could be misleading to other users.

I'm glad that you've explained that it is from your perspective and not what actually happened in the drama.

I addressed your comment mainly because the stuff you wrote could be misleading to someone looking through the comments and wondering whether to watch. Especially about the timeline of their relationship, it could portray the FL as easy or a floozy, which can be a huge turn off.

If you actually want to watch this drama, you need to watch attentively and with an open mind. Some of your statements actually show you are not paying attention while watching;
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. She is not the one that talked about "the art of love", it was her friend who spoke about it.

As for the rest of your complaints, I can't say anything more because this is your personal experience and feeling about the drama.
I just thought I should correct some mistakes in your comment.

Beautiful review.
You write so eloquently.

I wonder as well.
They probably pop up now because they know a lot of us that enjoyed watching the drama have probably moved on to other stuff, so there's no one to counter the nonsense.

I had also moved on, but someone mentioned on X that people are down voting TES on MDL so I came to check and they were not wrong.

Well, this comment section turned upside down after the drama finished airing.
We at least had sensible and thoughtful discussions back then.
Now, it's mostly just misogynists and misandrists 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

I'm already crying in preparation for tomorrow.
Today's episode was beautiful, but sad for me.

It's the beginning of the end.
And tomorrow's trailer didn't help at all.

You framed their relationship dynamics so well.
It's so heartbreaking watching them both struggle to find a balance.
But they won't find that balance until they break up finally and separate for years.
They need to restart that relationship on a steadier foundation of honest communication, equal footing on both sides, sincerity and kindness (they are both not kind to one another and their own selves; she feels she is inferior to him, therefore not worthy of him and he feels he is hard to love because of his personality).

I just realized that we haven't gotten a lot from the ML's POV in the past few episodes. In earlier episodes, we got that from his discussions with his friend.
I would like to hear what is going on in his head as well, not just the immature and hurtful words he speaks with that sharp tongue of his.

I haven't been repeating episodes since about 2 days ago.
They stress me out too much.
😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

I'm tired of it.
It's so frustrating.

You guys are so funny.

That part is going to hurt badly if they keep it.
I don't look forward to it.

I rolled my eyes at his feeble attempt at damage control.
😒😒😒😒😒

Very true.
