Though the show has low production value and that the screenplay is a mess at times, this show is easily a guilty pleasure of sort if one isn't put off by cheating.
I for one don't begrudge the ML for cheating on heroine in the first stage of there marriage as he didn't love her and married her only for what she stood instead of the person she actually was.
Theirs was a rushed and neither of them realized what they were getting into.
The ML has every flaws one could imagine (spoiled, selfish, arrogant, short-tempered and short-sighted) and few redeeming qualities but when he took the time to know his bride he really fell in love even though he managed to fuck it all up because of his afore-mentionned flaws.
It's interesting to see the downgrade spiral he had after the separation.
The FL could be perceived as a doormat but she was so strong imo! Firstly because she tried to endure the situation she was into and secondly because she walked out when she decided she had enough (it might have been a really hard decisionfor someone who grew up in a gilded cage and was only destinated to be a good wife and mother).
Her strength was also demonstrated time and again with the way she dealt with most of the situations she was presented with.
As for the secondary characters I liked Pan and Prang because they added to the drama and played their parts very well.
I'm part of the few people who is glad they'll end up together. Non isn't for her and is worst than the ML in books because he took the decision to walk out of her life without consulting her AND when his family was insulting the FL he didn't really stand up for her.
Had she married him, she would have had to deal with a hostile family (she would have handled it well but it wouldn't have been confortable).
I like that they got bavk together as two mature and aware people. They grew up during their marriage and during their separations. The FL monologue at the end says it better lol.
It's not a drama I'll go back to (I rarely rewatch dramas except some of my fav) but it was quite addictive once I got into it.
This drama is a guilty pleasure for sure with catfight galore, characters we love to hate, drama, verbal sparing...
I won't recommend it strongly but it can be a nice watch as a filler.
