Lots of sparks flowing between the leads. I appreciate chemistry that isn't dependent on NC scenes. The use of flashbacks wasn't perfect and it ones that were repeated weren't necessary but overall, it worked with the plot.
Overall, not mindblowing but something simple and sweet and undemanding. If you're looking for a Semantic Error, this is not it. More like A Shoulder to Cry On.
The look on that man's face. Did he think his kids would remain the little boys he could beat up and push around? Didn't it occur to him that they're now adults and can take him in a physical fight? Of course in kdrama fashion, the bad guy might be extra strong until the writer decides it is time for the good guys to win.
I saw it MANY times that if a Kdrama isn't straightforward and don't say things out loud, they NEVER understand…
Might not use the same words but yeah. It's frustrating to see viewers insult drama writers because a character is multi-dimensional and does something that doesn't fit their linear view of the character even when said thing it consistent with character behaviour or has been subtly hinted at by in the plot.
Nothing wrong with finding cute boys interesting though. Eye candy is fantastic.
Wanted to reach into the screen and pull that duvet down. If you're going to be shirtless, be shirtless. Flaunt all that hard work. Tae-ho is gone gone gone. And tbh he's the only useful man in her life rn. Tae-min cannot see beyond his delusions to the ways he can actually be there for her. Did I see in the preview he was scolding Tae-ho for giving her the gig? Urgh.
The mum is a terrible parent, not just for how she treats Hyo-shim but for how she raised her last two sons. Just terrible.
Looking forward to more whipped Tae-ho although I'm guessing it'll just be bits and pieces for now.
Ratings (in Korea) are not holding up. Saturday Nielsen (nationwide) was 14.5% - down from 15.5% last week.I’ve…
His mother just died and he turned to alcohol. Plus the guilt he bears for his mother's death. And to address PTSD/abuse, which person in his life will be the anchor point? His witch of a wife? The son who is stuck in his own delusions? The assistant manager or whatever his role is who spends more time in his wife's bedroom than anywhere else? A therapist isn't going to fall out of the sky. The writers are staying true to the character/plot. Also, consider that this is a Korean drama, a country with a huge prejudice against mental health issues. It'll be more surprising to see the writers address it head-on.
The women in Seo Do Guk's life are premium. Love his mum and grandmum so much.
I knew there were going to be comments about where the contract was. The contract was in an envelope in a drawer inside her closed bedroom in a house she lives in with the other party to the contract. The contract was safe enough where it was. Viewers tend to forget that while they have an omniscient view of a drama, the characters have a limited view. Calling the writers stupid for having the characters act true to their limitations is silly af.
That said, the way the ex got into the house, and the use of "enemy finds incriminating document" had me rolling my eyes. But this is a brilliant show so far and I'm not not going to get hung up over the use of a trope.
Ep 7: did the fl actually leave the mariage contract in her drawer for all to see? no lock? what? what? Seems…
It was in a drawer in her bedroom in a house she shares with only her husband who is the second party to the contract. How much more careful than that could she be, please?
Seeing comments shocked by the NC scenes. The trailer was pretty clear and the number of times "sex" is used in the drama summary? Lol. It is going to be a sausage fest every episode.
Will watch this for the acting. It's not business as usual that's for sure. Super curious for when Charlie shows his real face. If he pulls it off, I'll consider this a success. I hope the villains aren't caricatures as well and if there are fight scenes, please let them be good.
its veryyy fast paced. like this needed to be double the length to fully build the world its attempting to. im…
Guess they heard all the complaints about draggy dramas and decided to drive off at top speed. Problem is that it's so fast it's leaving viewers cold. I won't remember this drama in a month.
I can't quite put my finger on it yet but something is missing. I'm not sure what the writer intends to achieve with these characters. They're too one-dimensional. I can't feel the main character's empathy for the victims who are supposedly his raison d'être. There is no finesse to anything he does. I don't love or hate him. I'm just perplexed. The journalist is also another one, but I detest that character so there's that at least.
This drama certainly plucked all the right heartstrings. A few plot holes but tbh they're minor compared to how well everything else was handled. For once, I'm happy about a tidy ending. Cheong Ah's dad also earned his redemption arc. Will miss all the kids.

Unless you're saying they wrote, cast and shot this in six months, you're right about imagining things.
