Toxic relationship.
Such a toxic relationship... back and forth. I am so bored of this,nothing interesting happening. .. I struggled to watch till 20th episode... 4 more to go... dont understand why people like it so much... maybe just because of their chemistry or ML charm. But the rest of their story is boring, toxic, immature, childish and with so much luck in communication and emotional intelligence... like all the Chinese protagonists they are good at work but so bad at relationships...
for me FL was more of a red flag than ML. she simply hurt him from the beginning with her immaturity. i don't think she loved him. there was an attraction but she didn't love him. yes, maybe he was arrogant and then towards the end jealous, because she didn't communicate and kept him at a distance, she disrespected him as a man and as a lover very often. She didn't want to have an official relationship, he respected her and after all she was unhappy. Yes, he had a colder way of speaking but she was offending him all the time when she was unhappy. for me, she did not respect him as a man. and he was not gentle... she played the victim card many times. sorry, but this is my perspective.
They don't make a conscious effort to resolve their disputes, nor do they work on themselves to grow, heal, and matur, both emotionally and mentally.
Perhaps it is realistic, yes. But that doesn't change the fact that this drama is simply boring, as it merely perpetuates dysfunctional behaviors. It would have been great to see a more complex story, one showing how to resolve issues, communicate, and mature within a relationship to build a partnership that is promising, healthy, and balanced.
It should be a story that inspires you, not just an appealing one with a few sweet or sexy moments and nothing more. Yet, superficiality is rampant, and audiences only want filler stories—just to lose themselves in the narrative, rather than grow along with it.
The only character that I like was Lumi. and the sad surprise moment that was unexpected in 20th episode maybe is the only spark for viewers to contemplate of life... i was so sorry for that.
And with all of this I dont recommend this drama.
