Calling people brainless for disliking a drama is wild. We’re watching a show, not defending a PhD thesis. Some…
If your slice of cake causes you to gag because it's unpalatable the normal person stops eating it. We don't feel the need to tell everyone else in the diner it sucks.
If you're vain, suffer from a narcissistic personality disorder, you may be unable to resist from posting negative comments.
Some of us who enjoy watching train wrecks from the sidelines do that in silence as a guilty pleasure. Laughing at your friend tripping isn't a problem but feeling the need to share it with the world on repeat is.
My comment has little to do about the current production, most negative commenters are too uninterested in self reflection on their behaviour. (See narcissism)
Lastly these are fan pages, in many cases it adds no value to post repeatedly a negative comment on every episode.
Bedwetters, inability to get past the 2ML one sided affection for the FL isn't a sign of the Apocalypse in Kdramas.
Hollywood, Bollywood, Cdramas are ALL unrealistic storytelling.
The glances by the FL for ML vs SML are vastly different as is the music in the background.
She's made mistakes in reuniting the serial criminal back into the life of her love interest ML.
ML and FL both have confessed in their own love languages a romantic interest. She spent the night caring for him when he had his fever, she's vulnerable with him only.
An inability to see the difference between her behaviour around these two males illustrates your competency, the verbal, non verbal clues, breadcrumbs from the director, writer are all there.
Obstacles, one-sided crushes from the past, misunderstanding are tropes. This isn't new to storytelling.
Perspective: 2ML is her direct supervisor who has risked and demonstrated professional and personal concern/interest. Recruit, train, leading to her promotion her to a full time position because she's qualified. He's not remotely close to the Yun Eun Seong (Queen of Tears) 2ML.
Life is not black or white, these productions inject ridiculous tropes that require you to park your critical thinking skills in the storyline.
Watching the entire production before passing judgement requires maturity, too many critics are compelled to post their feelings after the second episode and why they're dropping it.
Medication is available to treat your ADHD, go outside and touch grass or snow.
it’s such BS for Hyeon Jin saying her life is complicated enough, well who’s the one that made it more complicated,…
You don't understand/accept the norms in Asian culture clearly. Divorced, orphan, single parents are not praised in Asian entertainment as in Western media.
East Asian culture is conservative, family, social hierarchy before individualism.
Mature adults understand interpersonal relationships are complex and not resolved because one party draws the…
One night stand, promiscuity is not common in Asian culture, entertainment. Asian culture much more conservative and treat them negatively. Single parents, divorced, orphans are seen as damaged goods.
An executive, manager dating a subordinate happens but is risky.
You don't have to agree with entertainment industry using these as vehicles.
Why do celebrities hide their dating from the Tabloids?
Producers, advertisers invest in films, dramas that are likely going to be profitable.
Risk management avoid controversial issues.
Lastly one night stand, pregnancy, employed as your subordinate is rare.
Dont worry, the foreigners took over asian dramas... chinese short verticals are 8 billion dollars industry with…
Most entertainment isn't made for altruistic purposes and funding is available because they believe it can be profitable.
It not about Western or Eastern art in this century, Patrons were not angels who simply gave money because they loved "art".
If you examine the top twenty grossing films from 1980-2025, popular TV series the same formula applies, return on investment.
Quality isn't relevant, ridiculous storylines, poorly edited, acted money makers are in the top ten.
You don't have to like pineapple on your pizza, enough people do that makes it an option for purchase. The market decides what to produce and end. They pump out sequels to extract everything from the market.
The bulk of East and Western media isn't about producing the best product, its about what makes money for the investors.
regarding ep 8 preview i like how the FL clear thing with the 2ML that she is in love with the ML but as usually…
Mature adults understand interpersonal relationships are complex and not resolved because one party draws the line, rejects their confession. (Reality)
Viewers were shown FL was devasted by her seeing her two friends (kissing) in the beginning, has a misunderstanding thinking they are dating.
The FL has a one night stand which is out of character for her and not the norm in Korean rom-coms.
Tropes
Anyone But You (2023) Third wheel for both leads.
Business Proposal (2022), 2ML having an interest in the FL (never confessed) but acts inappropriately with FL and his on and off again girlfriend.
Blind dates trigger FL in Business Proposal and Positively Yours to confess to the ML.
Third wheel/misunderstanding (communication) trope are common.
This drama is good except for the second couple. The guy literally told her to cheat on her boyfriend to end the…
Nope, the relationship ran its course and ended. The idiot brother didn't want to marry, he stated he's reluctantly going to marry her because she wanted it.
The manager suggested cheating (thinking he cheated) is a red line for couples to not cross, forgive. He didn't know the reason for the break up.
Idiot brother posted on IG going to Spain.
She took a gig to work overseas.
The wedding was called off, she had her one night stand afterwards to give her closure.
The manager suggested she was sad (pathetic) wasn't being honest and still held on to her relationship. She kissed him to shut him up.
Don't trust others that have consumed everything in one sitting, can you sit through ten hours and remain objective?
Both leads are executing their role as expected. ML Ju Ho Jin -Kim Seon Ho (Hometown Cha Cha Cha) fixer is slowly falling for the FL again. FL Cha Mu Hui - Go Youn Jung (Alchemy of Souls Season 2, you are inexplicably drawn to her even when she does cringe worthy behaviour.
Paused on episode eight, giving time to digest the first half.
Romance and comedy are on point, SML/SFL doing their own thing has been entertaining.
Tropes, cliches are being handled brilliantly.
Capturing Canadian tourist attractions can be hit and miss. Maple trees, Autumn colours on point. Rocky Mtns. Northern Lights, Jasper/Banff (Emerald Lake) Goblin did a good job in Quebec.

Lastly these are fan pages, in many cases it adds no value to post repeatedly a negative comment on every episode.
Too many people on these fan pages can't exercise any patience before having a meltdown on each episode.
This isn't limited to this production.
Is it logical to call a sports game, contest in the first two innings, first half, four holes?
Bed wetting, ADHD are valid as fair comment if they are perpetual whiners about incomplete productions on fan pages?
Have a bad experience at a restaurant, do you return?
Exercise free will and exit the viewing of a production you dislike and leave others to review the comment section for mature viewers.
Repeatedly posting negative comments isn't a coincidence, it's a pattern on fan pages.
Find something else to watch is the normal response to a production you're not enjoying.
Hollywood, Bollywood, Cdramas are ALL unrealistic storytelling.

Her burying her cellphone in her pot😂.
General rule of thumb entertainment industry makes shows, movie for-profit.
Advertisers get product placement, run cross promotions again for market share and profit.
There's nothing wrong with FL keeping her personal life private from her employer or anyone else.
Are you incapable of understanding privacy matters to others?
Sadly it's not limited to a single demographic or gender who have an inability to see the patterns and the rationale behind it.
Its as if they expect Studios to satisfy their needs and whining on fan pages is therapeutic.
Divorced, orphan, single parents are not praised in Asian entertainment as in Western media.
East Asian culture is conservative, family, social hierarchy before individualism.
Conservative values (incl privacy) in Asian remain higher compared to Western society.
Orphans, single parenthood, divorces are not celebrated in Korean culture as they are in Western entertainment.
Asian culture much more conservative and treat them negatively.
Single parents, divorced, orphans are seen as damaged goods.

Polite, social etiquette isn't trolling actors on their fan sites, you're simply not comfortable with accountability.
A male cannot use the term "eye candy" when talking about the opposite sex without being criticised?
Are you uncomfortable with having that argument being applied to you?
Age appropriate attractiveness is fair comment only against males when referring to females?
The Epstein analogy is fair comment, because they exploited children.
It not about Western or Eastern art in this century, Patrons were not angels who simply gave money because they loved "art".

No one cares if you don't like these actors or think its normal to stalk a child actor because they're "eye candy".
Go touch grass and find something else to do away from a Fan Site.
Have you been to Epstein's Island?
Viewers were shown FL was devasted by her seeing her two friends (kissing) in the beginning, has a misunderstanding thinking they are dating.

Third wheel for both leads.

Blind dates trigger FL in Business Proposal and Positively Yours to confess to the ML.
Third wheel/misunderstanding (communication) trope are common.
The manager picked up the phone and made a mistake thinking her fiancé cheated on her.
She lied about the wedding being delayed, the relationship had ended and his suggestion cheating made it impossible to reconcile.
Back in Korea, she's working late nights, he chides her after she's clubbing and suggests she's not over him.
She crossed the Rubicon, one night stand so he ex couldn't come back.
The manager was interested in a casual hook up, it was the beginning of their relationship for him.
She went upstairs to his old Apartment (manager) and met a female thinking the manager is a two timer. Hilarious misunderstanding.
The manager suggested cheating (thinking he cheated) is a red line for couples to not cross, forgive. He didn't know the reason for the break up.

Can you sit through ten hours in one sitting of anything, remain objective?
If you enjoy the acting of the leads, you won't be disappointed.
Cast and crew have done a great job in the first eight episodes of Can This Love Be Translated?"
Paused on the Italy trip, will revisit and expect more of the same tropes, clichés.

These award shows have always been rigged.
These are highly subjective, non transparent events that are funded to boost a studio, artist, manufacturer, organization etc.
It doesn't matter if we weigh in on the nomination or results.
Why don't you ask for a Unicorn for Christmas next year?
Advertising, Vehicle, Music awards are rigged too!
Acknowledging that, you wouldn't expect change, accept reality.💰🏆
Should Award shows ask for you opinion next year?
Or we can admit they were never neutral observers that were heavily influenced by Studio's, deep pocketed influencers all along?
