Title One Dollar Lawyer Spoiler
Not easy to answer without spoiling, but if you are after romance and cuteness then you will not find here.
Ok. I will spoil, but also try to keep some vaguness so you can still enjoy it if you decided to watch.

There is no romance between the two leads.
However, in the ML backstory, there is love. But, it is not the cutesy type, and you won't get any lovey dovey stuff. I still belive it is nicely done, and heartfelt, and there are two or three really nice scenes, but as I said, not the cutesy type. Also, the whole love story doesn't take lots of screen time, but it is key to the plot.
In short, I repeat what I said, if you are after romance, then this series is not for you.

I’m TIRRRRREDDDDD. 1. Tired of the messy execution on such a good premise. We went from rom com to melodrama…
Hahaha @4&5.
Re: 4 I wonder if they shot all these scenes at once (or same day), because I think The ML mother and her boss were wearing same clothes, and the flower bouquet, I think, is the same as well. lol

I just would like to acknowledge that I have read your message, and I will reply to it.
However, it is now late where I am. I want to give you the courtesy of proper reply instead of quick few words, so I am going to sleep on it first.
Talk to you later :)

Don't get me wrong, this is very good . . . but it went from romcom to straight tearjerker drama real quick.
I wouldn't say this is a tearjerker, just a bit sad line. Some tears, but not a lot.
To me, a tearjerker is something like "More than Blue: The series". It is very good, and you will cry buckets lol.

Just curious, how will some of you feel if we still get no confession from the FL by the end of the upcoming episode?…
The longer it takes them to be together the better.
I know this is very unpopular opinion, but I wish they don't get together until the last half an hour or so. Maybe one kiss when they get together, and if they do a wedding another one there.
I would be disappointed if it happens next week.
I mean once they get together, what is left to watch?

She didn't break up with him because she didn't want to burden him. She broke up with him because it was all too…
Not neccessarily.
In addition to what "Ivy" said above, the FL realised that ML is really looking for someone no longer there.
Staying with him while she can't guarantee to be that happy person will lead to either her to have to act happy while she is not, and that is mentally exhausting.
Or him having to put up with her, which makes him unhappy and maybe even resent her, which ultimately lead to them both being unhappy.
You could argue that she could have tried and gave it a go. That is true, but maybe she just didn't feel like it.
I think it is just life got in their way. None of them at fault. And for that, I think it was actually good writing.

Random thoughts:

* E09 is the best so far. We got the back story of FL, and here I want to say that I blame neither FL, nor the ex. It is very easy to judge people like him, but being a carer for long time takes its toll on the carer as well, and he probably said that in a moment of weakness. It just sucks to have cancer. Sometimes (I would even say many times) relationships brake down without one particular party being in the wrong. I am happy the writer went for a more nuanced way than just making him a cheater.
* The series progression has been satisfactory. E7, 8, and 9 are the best ones.
*I think the FL parents reaction to her career choice is very understandable. I would say the overwhelming majority of parents would react that way. I dare to say even in the West where children have more freedoms. Parents have the responsibility and duty to advise their children. Not everything children choose is correct and should be accepted and supported with no questions. I know she is adult, but she is still their child.
I don't have strong opinion who is right or wrong, but I completely understand them.
*Secodn couple is cute. 2FL listing all males who visited her room was fun.
*ML father catching ML mother was hillariously bad. I chuckled.
*Last minute of the episode made me shed few tears. I consider this a compliment.
*Finally, I really hope they don't get together until E15, or E16. Give the FL time. If it happens earlier, I don't know what they will fill the time with? I don't want to see too much grabing and chasing.

the fl ilness arc is such a plot hole , like do people not facetime there parents or like the guadrian signature…
I don't even know how to facetime lol.
People , especiallythose from Asia, do actually hide things from loved ones.
I find FL not telling anyone a bit unlikely, but it is not something wild or shocking. It is perfectly plausible.
Also, I don't think you need a guardian in USA.

Ksh means not success romance equal success, my favourite KSH drama one ordinary day literally his best acting…
Personally I didn't like Moving. Dropped it after few episodes. I am sick and tired of superheros.
Haven't watched Wost evil.
But, I liked A shop for killers a lot. That was very good.
I also liked a LOT "The Kidnapping Day". I LOVED that dynmaic betweetn the hapless kidnapper and the excellent little girl.
Tell me that you love me was another very good drama.

I think it is important to define what is success?
Is it viewing numbers? is it in Korea? is it internationally? is it on social media?

I doubt very much Disney+ (at least in the near future) will challenge Netflix when it comes to Kdrama.
I think Disney+ attracts different core audience. Its audience is mainly interested in Star Wars, Marvel, or classic animated movies.
Kdrama is not the main draw.
Netflix on the other hand is increasingly reliant on non-English content. It is very common nowdays that their top 10 has more new non-English language series than English.
And, the most successful of those non-English titles are Kdramas.
So, for Netflix, Kdrama is a very important source of income, while for Disney+ is not.
Therefore, I doubt that they willheavily promote them. That will be reserved for Star Wars, and MCU.
P.S: I only have Disney+ because I had a heavily discounted offer.

I'm one of those watchers who doesn't care about ratings, the 8.6 rating doesn't bother me, as for me it is still…
Relying on aggregate rating is really flawed in my opinion even if everyone who rated was genuine.
The key flaw is that the same number means different thing to different people.
In my opinion, it is a much better way to follow individual people. Few people who have a roughly similar taste like you are worth more than tens of thousands of random people.

Seriously? I feel that they continuously release thrillers / action, and that's it. No romcom, no comedy, or anything…
Tell me That You Love me is very good!
A bit different drama where the ML is deaf. I have seen few movies where one or both leads are deaf, but not a whole series.
The romance (for once between a bit older characters) is really beautiful, and I even picked up some Korean sign language words lol.
