Thank you for not blindly criticizing Sakurako. Why most commentators who criticize as women don’t see her survival instincts like you did. It’s like they live fantasy land where men get short end of a stick.
FL is example of what happens to a woman in extreme case of patriarchy and capitalism in the beginning of the series. Society tells women they are nothing without marriage and person without money is not considered human. So logic and actions perfectly aligned with society contradictory message that women are nothing but also women have to get money to live good life but also has to be a perfect wife. I do not understand commenters here who hate Sakurako. She is very flawed character that changes through series and learns to her own humanness through relationship with ML not just checked boxes through society’s lenses. At the end she is not walking cliche gold digger anymore, she is human with feelings and contradictions that can love and live her really human life.
I think Sena being obsessive fan is part of the development. As story progresses she stops seeing Raik as an idol and start seeing the very flawed human being he is. Not eating and sleeping over dating news is abnormal, cause she puts him on pedestal.
You really had to watch this drama when it was airing, they didn’t even have PPL, therefore no money for promotions. Don’t expect anything extraordinary.
After seeing Nana’s break-in case, depiction of sasaengs here. What’s the point of security in those luxury buildings? I hope Nana sued that building alongside with that criminal. wtf?! Why it’s so easy to break in in someone’s house?
FL’s every action was understandabe. Her ex husband was resentful of her success and brilliance, he blamed on her their divorce. Even though it was his insecurity. FL doesn’t want repeat of history, so her breaking up with ML so he could reach all of his potential is not a stupid thing. All she knows is that her ex husband became insecure seeing her and became resentful. She doesn’t want ML say in the future:” I gave up my studies for you” or something similiar. Everyone who is blaming her never had bad breakup with insecure man. They do not act like that at first, it only comes out in the long run.
Poor little male lead 🙄. What he is gonna do without stupid male worshipping boy crazy boy mom like you?!
Why his feelings are her responsibility? She already responsible for three lives now! Why she has to give even more now? Why female lead always have to serve everyone around her like SLAVE?
Junseo and Jaeoh are also victims. She manipulated them to do her bidding, then tossed them aside when she didn't…
Nahh after high school day they were adults they have to be responsible just for their actions just like Ahjin. Don’t strip off their own accountability just because Ahjin is evil.
