Plot is nonsense and full of illogical story lines

The best part of this drama is the main couple's relationship and I finished this drama because of that. I also like Seon Joo's kid. Plus points also on showing the importance of forgiveness between couples, family and friends. Everything else is just meh. This drama heavily relied on the main couple's sweet moments. It worked for me in some ways, but in general, the plot is nonsense and full of clichès. Enough of the childhood connections, altered memories, birth secret, nonsense love triangle, etc.

How this drama depicts fangirling was scary for me -- from stalking, to violence against the girl who was rumored to be dating their 'idol', to spending extravagantly for a hotel room as part of the 'pilgrimage', to giving up your entire savings just to buy a birthday gift for your idol, up to the brink of divorcing your spouse. This drama shows that it's okay and it's normal to be this kind of fangirl while it should not be. This kind of fangirling is totally not normal. It is just a fantasy of the writer.

I also found some similarities in PMY's character with WWWSK. As a curator, she usually acts as the dependable secretary.

I liked the OST. Actors were great.

I blame all the negatives on the writer.

Plot holes in other dramas are passable. But here, some points are illogical for me and yes, im complaining to the writer.
