Ep 1-5 are CLASSIC masterpice, a real rom-com, THEN it becomes shallow cheap usual sexist script
wow this is the old trope - a cold man and a kind woman who melts his heart - BUT this particular drama is different and refreshing. For most part :)
He is not poker faced all the time, he is lively;
and she talks back and at him and keeps putting him into his place.
FOR THE FIRST HALF. Then the old sexist trope kicks in and he is overly controlling and possessive and pushy, and she is overly chaste, naive, and stupid damsel in distress. Unfortunately - the script writer did not know how to keep creating fresh script.
So the script **** almost always, in almost every drama **** becomes an elementary school girl with a sugar daddy. And she keeps avoiding s.x and he pushes for it.
I think it is ok for like 1-2 episodes, but when it drags for sooo many episodes, it becomes super stale and stupid
AND SHE KEEPS LYING. And she is insecure and ignorant - a CEO's job is not 9-5 and he is a public figure. She is too stupid to even try to understand. AND he doesnt explain. THEY DO NOT COMMUNICATE. That is awfully immature
It would be more productive to show a mature relationship between two adults. Without skinship and nc. But with deep talks, sharing, intimacy that is not deeply physical, but hinting at. It would be sexier and more realistic.
Bc ... we had like at least 5 episodes of them dating but never sharing their past, their concerns, dreams, ... their plans for future... their likes and dislikes... So that is SHALLOW
=====
ML actor is really fun; and his poker face disappeared very fast - and even when he was poker faced in the beginning of the drama, he was not lmao How come there arent more actors like that.... I saw him / heard of him for the first time in current Love on the Menu weekender, and I was impressed, so I started watching his older dramas. ML actor is a gem.
This drama has a fantastic and realistic FL script
and a super lovely, expressive, fantastic FL actress. How come there arent more actresses like that. I have never seen her anywhere else. FL actress is a gem.
