Men cant get sexually harassed, don't you know!? Cause we all dogs, so we prob. like it. Or something along those lines.

Same advice!

Cry us a river!

She is a woman, they have to. If the dad cheated he would have been a dirtbag everyone wipes their feet at. But female characters are not allowed to cheat because their trashbags. Its not even gender bias, if you have trouble beliving me, just try and find an exapmle of the opposite. Good luck!

Ok this is the end of the conversation, you clearly not reading anything i write. I have literally posted an exaple in the previous post, but you seem to be an ignorant person. Have a nice day.

First of all i never advocated anyone forgiving anything, i guess you have trouble reading. Further i already told you why women cheating is not accepted by the audience, because of the way female infidelity is portrayed, that was my entiere point! Because most screen writers in Korea are women their FL's always get away with cheating and the way they try to justify it is almost always annyoing to the audience. If you want a perfect summary of what im talking about watch "My Wife’s Having an Affair This Week". And male infidelity being accepted... I'll consider that a joke... good one!

Really? I can do a 10 minute research and find at least 25-30 shows that came out in the last 5 years where a cheating boyfriend/husband gets called names, beaten or exiled by his family and friends for the deed. Now your turn! Find that many shows that came out in the last 5 years with a cheating female in the first place and then lets count in how many of those the female gets called names, beaten or exiled and in how many everyone either celebrates her or merely tells her to do better and moves on? Good luck.

Its actually not the worst, you just have to be able to tolerate the FL.

And hey to each their own, i don't judge. I just pointed out the double standard.

Yeah and it wasn't particularly successful when it came out. It only picked up steam among western viewers once the KDrama wave started. And when i say western viewers i mean female viewers obviously.

Oh no personally i do like it, in fact i watched it twice by now. I was commenting on your response, which seemed rather emotional i must say xD Im not saying you are not allowed to like the show! If you do, you do, all good. But objective measures still have their place, even if they don't have to influence our opinions about a particular show. But the whole point of this discussion was meant to just point out that while Lee Jae Wook is certainly a solid actor, he is not quiet in the position to just pass up "bigger" projects like this one!

If you don't base your judgments on viewership and ratings you can't claim "Massive and undeniable popularity". Your sole opinion doesnt make a show massive or popular. As nosnoop mentioned overall the show was only average, thats why they cut season 2 short in the first place!

Its the plastic surgery and lip fillers!

Really? Strong girl? A block of ice has more presence than this character (not talking about the actress).

Its 2024 ... FL's are allowed to cheat, only if its the ML thats cheating things become an issue and the show is instantly bad!

I agree! I don't understand how other countries are allowed to have their own culture and tradition and past times?! Can't they just all do what we do, we are so much better after all with heavy drugs and p**n. It's annyoing.

Good luck, friend!

I sometimes wonder what the though process is behind writing something like that? There is no one with a healthy mental state who would find this trash fun and enjoyable...
