I finally got to watch this drama recently and even though I loved it, I have several problems with it. I've seen Korean remake far and between and while it's good, contrary to many others I prefer original version. It's more straightforward and Kdramas typical additions like alive villain, evil mistress, old couple back story and etc were weak plots imo and some iconic scenes like Mita telling her tale was better showed in Japanese. The most frustrating matter in the drama was how everyone reacted to Mita's behaviour. She'd been grown in an emotionally (and hinted physically ) abusive enviroment. Before her accident she had been happy depressed type and after it sad one. She's mentally sick and seems no one cares. She's so clinically and emotionally detached that seemingly she even can't feel physical pain (e g. When she gets hit or pick hot box from the fire) She has severe mental problems and other people specially reference lady who's known her nearly all her life don't care about it. Even put her in discharge of youngesters. Funny she told her clients how Mita would do anything even commit murder at their command. Wonder if she did that to all of her clients. The other thing was how at the end all seem to have a rather happy end but she was still the same. She cracked at the end, talked to them and smiled but next scenes she was still cold and detached.
I've clean watched till ep 6 and fast forwarded till ep 28 and can't agree with you more. She's not a likable heroine and her default sad expression doesn't help.
Seems you've deleted your reply to my comment any way. I completely agree with you. Two couples aren't healthy…
Actually I still haven't seen the last 6 eps, but as I have such an aversion to controlling people and being control I think I'm in a serious ride. Si Qi/Qing wu was awful. He's 19 or something, looks like he's 16, behaves like he's 14 and then there's her, IDK her age but her overconfident antics and tiring all the time references to her nonexistence beauty made me roll my eyes more than I care to count....
I am not keen the FL cluelessness, nor the acceptance of the male leads nature to be controlling. It's not dealt…
Seems you've deleted your reply to my comment any way. I completely agree with you. Two couples aren't healthy by no means. In ep 18 he says I want to control all your life and she's like "please, do this". 2nd couple is even worse. Really annoying and disturbing, at least for me. I don't want to sound like a granny here but this kind of portrayal of relationships can be very harmful for youngesters who're main target audience of this type of dramas!
I'm down to ep 18 yet but basic story is good and refreshing (though a bit unreal and draggy) but 2nd pairing is really irritatung and offensive to me. It doesn't matter if it's fantasy or funny but 2nd FL is awful. She practically harassed SML into a relationship. All her touching, kissing and seduction games are kind of physical and sexual assault, more so because he's younger than her. Maybe it's funny for some audience that she's a woman after young pretty boys but in reality she just looks like a hunter looking for prey among freshmen (*-*)
I'm at ep 11 but from thanks to teaser like credits and overall aura of the drama, it's obvious that it's not going to be as smooth as first half. Personally I don't like other pairings at all. Are going to shade MC?
Yes you can read it on Novel updates and if you scroll down the comments you can see the google docs for the rest…
Thank you for the links and explanation, I really appreciate it. Actually I found it but it was rather messy, with all those extra chapters after 311 and such.
Also, it's good how they film scenes with twin brothers as to avoid showing both in a single shot.....
