Thank you! I am on episode 7 now! so I'll just keep watching this one!

Greetings @bloomintide! I finally caught up and watched the last episode for this one! Like we have been commenting since last week, HS behavior toward TH in the last episodes is not good character development and the introduction of the father ended up only as a plot device to trigger her going away for a year since his character served no other purpose. My biggest complain here is that thanks to that last minute mess all the happy ending moments at the end felt fake for me. He finds her thanks to a coincidence and she claims that she missed him and her family, but no effort could be seen of her getting back to them. I loved the very last scene when she says that they are stuck together and kiss, but there is still a lot of wasted potential here! Having all the father stuff 10 to 20 episodes ago, and have the company issues resolved to close the plot could have been much more rewarding for everyone. An extra opinion about wasted potential goes directed to love triangles; if you read my comments on MDL about love triangles you may think that I hate 2ML but that is not true, since while I consider that this is a waste of screentime and development for the main couple, it is also a waste of potential for the 2ML himself. It is sad that 2ML last "romantic" scene was basically peaking at HS and TH wedding when instead, the writers could have ended the love triangle earlier and even having him falling in love with the other girl gym trainer or something... overall, the show was enjoyable but had a potential to be great and not average at the end. I am taking a risk by watching another family drama, so wish me luck with "My Strange Father".

Greetings! I'll start watching this very soon, but I hate love triangles and misunderstandings, but love healthy couples and happy endings! Can someone spoil me about the romance!? I would like to know what are the different couples in the show and how are the love triangles and misunderstandings here...

Yet another drama with a crazy mother ... here we go again..

You are completely right. Her only merit was being available and allowing him to have the role of boyfriend whenever she wasn't still too busy with her family. She was always absent during their relationship and could notice that on how numb her persona was with a few exceptions of a smile only as he leaves like she is having some fun, but that's basically it. I also prefer healthy relationships with both leads as green flags! That is rewarding and deserves investing time watching because it is all worth it from beginning to end.

To be fair, he should hate her with his everything. He should just thank her family for accepting him and leave for the US and leave her with the biggest regret ever, and never even look in her direction again. I am very upset with yet once again a man that has been reduced to waste for the sake of the FL, only go have "him" humiliate himself "again" like she is worth everything and he is worth nothing in some kind of strange quest for several writers to bring to life the ultimate simp to satisfy the fantasy of million of women that would love to torture men and still have them at their feet...

You would believe that she would learn something from the family members that have been there for all her life, but she chose to learn and initiate the worst behavior from the worst family member. I guess her dad was most definitely "living his own life", but even then, things should be done properly. Her father should have divorced his mother, and if she doesn't like TH, she should've just told him and break up with him; temporary heartbreak from honesty is better than the punishment she has put him through by abandoning him emotionally and now even physically...

I understand that the whole point of "living your only life" shows in the last episode where it seems like she is complete and happy, but I think it is completely out of character. If she needed this time for herself so bad, she wouldn't have agreed to marry ML. It is just sad how in the preview for the last episode, she seems to be finally free but only at the expense of abandoning the only person that was her real supporter! At this point, the romance in this show was rendered completely useless with her actions; it would have been better to just avoid all romance completely for her and develop the other couples more instead. I want to blame ML and say that he was meeliher captive taking decisions for her and pushing his version of a happy ending instead of listening to her, but that's the issue! She never speaks her mind! Her character is just there, and we never know what she really wants, so no, I cannot be happy for her even when she is her own person and should be able to choose not to be with ML, but that's the second problem! She is supposed to be truly in love with this guy, so it is not like anybody is forcing her to be with him! I am rambling at this point and out of words for how bad things turn out to be for this show. The story was a average at best, the romance was all ML which is more than obvious now and what could have been the final and best thing, character development, was obliterated by the writers with this poor poor final episodes... What a huge shame; this could have been great ..

I am up to date now and it is way worse than expected! Yikes!

It can be my first one...

I agree with this! Good shows have good character development, but the writers gave us nothing in the end. The whole suffering by sacrificing herself for her family for the first 20 to 30 episodes shouldn't be to bother us or cause angst like we are masochists. The whole angst should work to reward us with good character development and even karma from half of the show to the end, and not to make us waste our time with angst from beginning to end, otherwise, what is the point? Unless you enjoy angst for some weird reason. There was a lot of potential here, but it was wasted in only a few episodes.

I usually don't watch any drama with the same actor or actress back to back, because I like getting immersed in the show! But after watching even 10 or 20 episodes of one the most lighthearted and fluffiest shows like "Love Me, Love My Voice", it is only harder to watch this one...

You and me both!

Indeed!

Like father, like daughter!

Thank you!

The problem is that it doesn't matter how touching or heartwarming they try to make their reunion, it will not erase how selfish and heartless she was when she she lied, went behind his back and abandoned him...

Long Distance Relationship?

What is LDR?

Actually, I am starting to appreciate more the "slight romance" shows! Since there are way too many full blown romance shows that lack plot and character development nowadays, and relay too much on way too old cliches and tropes to keep the story going! This is why I sometimes prefer the show to have everything else going with the plot, and have romance as an added good which makes more comfortable since I hate love triangles and stupid misunderstandings/break ups! Just to provide an example, the romance in "The Glory" was just perfect! for me!
