I will wait for this one. 1936 ? Just before the WW II ? And the guy is in the navy ? I smell tragedy & sad ending. :P

It isn't that rare anymore. They even have (skipped) bed scene now. Recently, the side couple on "The Potato Lab" had that for exemple (Kiss & Bed scene). "The Divorce Assurance" have two side couple and I do think at least one of them will kiss in the end.

Probably a childhood crush.

The moment FL invited him on her pyjama party he had become one of her "girl". He isn't just friendzoned. He is not even considered a man at this point. :P

Cute story. But way too "safe" for my taste. They really wanted to not offend anyone. A bit of straight washing, no kissing or skinship but honestly I can deal with that. The thing that annoyed me the most is they "tried" to bring heavy subject and then mostly ignored them.

- Heesu struggle with his sexual identity ? He did "come out" to his sister & BF but it was so uneventful that it fell flat.
- The homoparentality from ML family was also brushed off and they didn't dare to scratch beyong surface level.
- No mention of homophobia either.
- And the whole BF & his dad issue ? Unresolved in the end.

So yeah, it's a light & easy watch. But they just dodged everything they tried to bring. Don't try to find something deep with this one for sure.

Hmm.. Can someone explain to me why K-Drama have sometime a warning at the beginning that it's a work of fiction like this one ? :O It doesn't seem to be absolute as I don't remember seeing this in EVERY K-Drama that are fiction.

In my country, it's the opposite. They always warning us IF it's based on a real story, not the others way around - as being a fiction is the default mode.

Decent. Some funny & sweet moment but also some boring & annoying one. The few last episodes were really hard for me to finish. Didn't help that the potato lab plotline wasn't my cup of tea at all.

7/10

Yeah it doesn't make sense especially when the "kid" is older (30y old real life) than the "elderly man" (28y old). For age gap to create real drama they need to include real minor in the cast. Not that it doesn't disturb any people when they are all major but it's in a lesser extend.

Wow. I loved it. And the OST at the end of this episode ? Soooo good.

Anyway, the actors are still awesome and deliver true emotion that break me every week. Y_Y

I think most of them have the OG work in mind. I did read it but cannot remember anything tbh so it doesn't spoil the fun for me. But basically, they skipped the side BL couple to add a straight couple. It doesn't help that what they added isn't that well written either. It's sweet & Jihu is best girl but overall their storyline is really basic. We can tell they didn't put much effort in writting this straight couple.

But yeah, I'm really enjoying the main story so I don't really care. I just can understand them to some degree that all. :P

Yeah same, I really like Jiyu as character. Chanyeong ? I don't really hate him but yeah, I could have done without him and his storyline. And their romance between them ? It's really basic and the writting is subpar at best.

BUT I also don't considere this as a huge flaw. They take some screentime but it isn't that much. It also break the "BL universe" some BL have where all of the characters are queers that sometime upset me for some reason when it's way too forced.

But in another hand, I do understand where they come from. The OG work didn't include them and they skipped a solid side BL couple storyline to add what I would call a badly writted one. I almost wished they just "straight washed" the side couple and have a decent storyline at least. But it would have also upset peoples - maybe even more - so I don't know. :P

It isn't THAT insanitary as honey is a natural antiseptic. :P

I think it's because of the theme: Insurance & divorce isn't really... relatable to them ? Anyway, not that OP is right (too early to say) but I could see how this one wouldn't be as popular as the typical romcom to teenager.

No, she is his 3nd wife (ex-ex-ex-wife), his latest. His first wife is the one who wanted a open marriage.

They never really hide it to begin with. They fully embraced being a meme. :P

So far yes, it's fun & light. The insurance talk is a bit... overwhelming ? Maybe a "me-problem" but I didn't catch most of their business talk. I liked the chemistry between the main lead. Second couple (don't really know if they will be a thing but it's a bit hinted at least) also seems interesting. I don't know if the third woman is meant to be aromatic but she seems to take the "self-love" path so I'm intrigued.

Anyway, it's worth to watch the first two episode to make your own opinion. :)

Yes, we clearly have a different opinion on what's personal and what's not. He was conflicted the second time but he still had to do his job. And FL was hurt by it but still understand that it wasn't personal, it's why she could move on.

The first time in others hand is a totally different story...

And for her showing herself as being strong is just that. "showing" but in the end, she isn't. She is still hurt by it.

Skeptical peoples. Basically, Online news is easily twisted and when a "scandal" is fresh a LOT more of misinformation are out there than actual trustworthy one. So they wait until it's settle a bit before judging - mostly when actual authority (police investigation & result from a trial) give answer. It's even more the case when it touch celebrity scandal.

I don't agree at all. Sure, if it was someone that she trusted & loved it will be worse BUT the first time she was forced to quit is still WAAAAY worse than the second time.

- The first time, she was wronged badly. They couldn't fired her without legal consequences (the sister of the wife said so) so they needed her to quit on her own. They didn't have any valid justification to fired her. That make the whole thing very personal even if it was the doing of a stranger at this time. So ML did work harassment & create a toxic work environment to force her & made this really prideful FL give up.

- The second time, ML fired her. Her being fired is justified (as nowhere it was said she could sue them for doing so) by company policy. It still suck but it wasn't personal.

As for her ex, she just doesn't want her pride to be harm again. To appear to still being hurt in a sobbing way. She never actively searching him or tried to reconnect with him in any way. And the "I hope you find happiness" is just a MC thing. They often write them as the "bigger person" & try to avoid them to appear being petty. I can understand that it doesn't feel right, but it's just about a issue with MCs being portrayed with strong moral principles.

Yeah, I viewed him as a fine gentleman. It was so petty that at first I was wondering if her father did something to make him do that. But no, he just wanted her to be "punished" (by death ?) because she turn him down when she didn't show the slightest interest in him. :O
