I am concerned that in this kind of drama, they easily suggest that a case of depression can be sorted out by falling in love or having someone and we know this is not true. Some cases of depression are a serious imbalance in brain chemistry that are not sorted out by changes in external circumstances. Reactive depression is different, as it is a response to negative experiences, still we need to thread these cases carefully, they are not simply resolved by falling in love. Falling in love is an emotion that gives us a serotonin boost but normally the slump can be quite daunting for people with depression.

I have to thank you for your comment! I stopped when the boss asked her to kneel in front of the client it was too much!!! such melodrama for goodness sake, but after reading your post I came back and finished the episode!

I had the same impression and I also like both of them. I think the script is letting them down. Also, the plotline is not original. We have watched other dramas with similar storylines. They deserve better.

Exactly! well said!

Totally agree with you! I wrote about it earlier on.

I am glad you found a reason to keep going, halfway through the Consultant wanted her to be blamed for malpractice I felt so disgusted I had to stop! 😆

Precisely, but you are overgeneralizing yours!

I feel relieved reading your comment. I am afraid I had to stop halfway through ep 2, it was more of the same, and as well the comedy very flat. A pity as I think the CP actors are great, they deserve a better script and a more original plot.

So sorry to hear this Jenny. It sounds awful. I hope things have improved since this case was unveiled.

No, it does not happen everywhere Jenny, I am sorry I have to disagree with you. I have moved between countries and work in different sectors and this not just happen. Management in most of the world is aware they cannot just assault an employee. Those cases are marginal nowadays in many countries. Gender discrimination yes, and other types of discrimination as well are still a problem, but not physical assault.

Ep 2 - Please anybody reassure me that in Korea your bosses do not physically assault you!, OMG how many dramas do we have with a terrible portrayal of physically abusive bosses? My cousin works in the pharmaceutical sector and had to work in Korea. She said at the beginning his male counterparts were unpleasant because of gender discrimination but she had a good talk with higher management and things improved, then she said it was good enough to work there. So many issues in this drama are so exaggerated: the high achievers' behaviour, the malpractice case, and now the medical employment sector. I wanted desperately to like it because I follow ML career I have watched his previous dramas and I really like his work. FL is great too but I cannot cope with the script. They are creating easy melodrama. Even if it is fiction, is it too much to keep it sensible? I think I stop here. I don't want to come here to rant, so let this be my last post on this.

Where did you read it?

What a nasty comment, they are completely different productions and I have enjoyed both!

This person is not alone on this, look at the posts below, other people are making the same comment. I think the chemistry is fine, I like the ML actor very much and he is good at matching with his CPs in all his dramas, but the villain couple is superior here.

Thank you. And not to confuse with another Youngji that is in a K pop girl group! She is our girl: https://www.instagram.com/youngji_02/

I am so glad too because if you are in MDL for a while you find there is such unnecessary hate thrown at either actors or a drama itself in other forums. There is no need. One can legit express a critical view of a drama but without nastiness and hate, and if I don't like an actor I simply don't watch his/her dramas, I don't come here to rant about them!

Blade is the name of the song. It is in Spotify, I have streamed it so many times!

Ep 6 - Those epilogues continue to be a total treat. It was so rewarding to see that the lovers survived and were able to escape to their new life together. Madam Merchant whispered in the ear of our FL how the lovers heat the inn in their first night together and our FL asked naively if there was a need to put a heater in that weather. So hilarious. We only saw a glimpse of the romance of this couple but it brought a lot of spice to the narrative. The widow lover and the servant lover were very well matched so I could really visualised what Madam Merchant was telling our FL about it 😋😂 (On another note, is it not ML/Jong Won facial features amazing? he looks like a walking-painted portrait! 😍)

Lee Youngji - a rapper from Korea - the song is called Blade, it is in Spotify

Yes! we missed lots of information in that time lapse
