I was really excited about this drama and was really enjoying it... But I just couldn't get past the male lead's anger issues. Most of the time he was a very gentle lead, very thoughtful and caring to the female lead. He would get overly aggressive with his younger brother and some of the younger guys on his team, with slapstick hitting and what-not, things that I have come to overlook in dramas. But over all I liked him, he seemed to care a lot about the other characters welfare. BUT then out of nowhere he would have outbursts of anger that were so over the top I just couldn't overlook them... I mean I tried... I really did, but they just got too extreme. At one point he hits a car window (with the female lead inside the car) so hard that he busts the window and cuts up his hand. He gets angry at the second male lead for something SML had said to the female lead and he purposefully crashes his car into SML's car. Then is shown not as the INSANITY that it would be in other dramas ( let alone real life) but as somehow heroic or romantic. Then in one scene (because male lead can see the future) he sees himself and female lead having a physical fight with each other, and then making out, and this seems to turn him on... He later threatens to hit female lead if she doesn't comply with something he is asking of her... and she replies with "Does hitting me get you excited?" as if this idea is a turn on for her as well... This only makes his think about the fight they will have and the makeout... as if yes, indeed hitting her would get him excited.... FINALLY, I had to drop this drama, when we actually see the scene he had scene in his vision, she the female lead gets angry at Male lead for toying with he so much, (which he has been doing) and she starts being pretty violent to him... Hitting him repeatedly, male lead becomes violent back in order to get her to stop hitting him, she ends up with a bloodily lip because of it, he DOES get excited, slams her on the wall and makes out with her. Guys, this is not romantic. This is NOT okay. If this was real life, he would FOR SURE be an abusive partner. I can normally overlook some of the aggressiveness in male leads, especially in older dramas... I know that this is a stylistic and cultural view of masculinity, BUT this is just abuse. If this were any other genre, even in a kdrama, this would be the character that we think might be unhinged or the serial killer... but because it's a rom-com, we are supposed to just see him as passionate. THIS IS NOT PASSION. This is a mane with dangerous anger issues, who needs A LOT of counseling and who doe not need to be dating anyone! Sorry that was a lot, but I had a lot of feelings, thanks!
