Oh my wow the level of jealousy throughout this episode is insane! I love how well it’s portrayed and how it honestly doesn’t seem rushed. I’d rewatch this episode multiple times for realSara Rojas OCTOBER 19 2021

SPOILERS. I'd highly suggest this as a review to read if you have already seen it and want to hear discussion or thoughts on what's to come or has happened.
Alright so I've been waiting for that domino to fall.
The beginning we find out Mr. Happy overly clingy, sweet man is a secret jerk. Confessions of certain feelings and to keep the feelings under control. They have such a unique relationship I'm just rooting for them in everything. Then we have our secondary couple who has been undergoing some slight roadblocks in their relationship go through the process together. They really talk it out. PSJ is realizing that he makes her heart flutter and they are starting to act a little different. Maybe even a bit awkward. They're actually so cute. The BGM that they play suits it so well.
PSJ recites all of KJW past failed relationships. We also get to find out that KJW was fully first infatuated by saying that the guy PSJ thinks is her first love isn't actually. Then we get another classy flashback of them. (Just saying those flashbacks to their younger days and then the cute "when we were kids" clips are just so well done) Anyways PSJ and KJW go back to their own houses and she calls him an idiot and he's just thinking who's her first love?! The getting back together seems to actually have been because of a misunderstanding of what KJW did but he thought his ex did it. Uh oh.
Day after PSJ primps himself up to see her.... in the funniest cutest way. I died from laughing. Then it seems like KJW did so in some capacity as well. After more awesome story they go shopping together. He just says "It's just.." to all of her outfits and she blows up at him. You can see the attendant feeling her pain. Then he retorts with " YOU LOOK PRETTY IN ALL OF THEM!!" the attendant laughed at them. PSJ also did very slow shaky breaths out. She follows him to his gym afterward. She sees him getting beat up by Mr. Crazy, jealous, overconfident MMA fighter. She pulls out the aegyo cuteness and says I want to spar with you <3 After very slow cute punches she SOCKS HIM and makes him get a nosebleed LOL!
The secondary couple gets more exposure with the girl who wants to date her long term boyfriend. Its a very cute interaction until second female realizes how into her boyfriend the pink princess is. We even get to see her realize that they both felt very similar about their feelings in the beginning. We see her throw water and slap kimchi...but also realize that its hard to slap someone.
Man I hate the guy who ruined PSJ's taekwondo career... All I'm saying because otherwise I will rant on how terrible his personality is.
KJW's long awaited interview happens and it goes similarly like Radiant Office's and a few other dramas that deal with interviews for people who pass a certain age, or don't have specs. The end results aren't out but I felt like she left an impression. So in my mind it's still up in the air.
The secondary couple have a great moment when he says after he gets promoted to get married.
The evil rival of PSJ's manager said that he's there as his fan, and to let him see him fly again. WOW CONFIDENCE UPPED. Pink princess discovers the hidden relationship... what will happen?
The long awaited match of PSJ!! It ends up being with Mr. Crazy, jealous, overconfident. Shirt stripping oh man I had a little fangirl moment. HE KO'S HIM SO FAST!!!! He got all this media coverage on his pure skills. Then his ex is there and the paparazzi is asking what his relationship with her is. He walks right past everyone and everything to a crunched up person in the back row of the audience. At first I was thinking possibly his sister or KJW. IT WAS KJW!!! She's shaking and crying and blocking her ears. PSJ comes up to her and they talk. She can't bear to see him do MMA and he is now in trouble because he finds her pretty even when she's crying. The BGM OST fits so good I was crying and still cry every time I rewatch it.
I swear I have rewatched the match scene now... about 10 times.. Anyways I am so excited for next week. That's it for my long winded review/recap :D

Okay first off.. amazing. Saying it loudly and very proud. Now I've seen Zanilia in a few dramas now and my favorite to date is Boss & Me. This will probably be my favourite with her being a basic bad ass.
Spoilers because I tend to recap awesome lol.
Now the music is awesome! Perfectly suitable and with so much life and energy.
Actors so far I'm a bit on the fence aside from Zanilia and her friend who died near the end of the episode.
Anyways we open with her basically informing the viewers by telling herself that she has no recollection of who she is. We are shown flashbacks but no idea quite yet. I mean as a viewer I can make inferences.
So we then see the group of men of the show that have been presented going to go and find the winner of their bet.
Their bet consists of hunting wolves and maids. Each maid has an initial of one of the men. Whichever of them has the most maids remaining is the winner.
I love how they paced the first episode. We even get to see Zanilia go badass and start killing the wolves and dodging a few arrows. I like it so much that I'm contemplating just straight diving in even though I know it's not done airing nor not completely subbed. (Note: I don't like doing that, especially with C-dramas. It's basic hell for the kind of viewer I am)
Anyways it ended on a little bit of a strange note... but with that note I am fully invested to keep going. Overall I really enjoyed the episode and if I like the first episode at this level and I've seen the opening song over 25 times before I even started the drama... I'd say it's safe to say I'm going to be on a really fun ride. Full of intrigue, politics, martial arts, revenge, assassination (attempts and successes), war, misunderstandings, and love.

Mini summary :D
No the OTP got attacked. Obviously male lead defeated the human attackers.
Oh man the bro's misunderstood the last activity that main girl's cafe friend suggested.
They are cutely/shyly asking if it happened.
Fair is fair. "best friend " and the now ex boyfriend are experiencing trouble. She is doubting him. Which makes sense because now she's not the other woman anymore. She hears everything he says as a lie that he had told main girl while they dated.
Fancy fox clan party!!! FIRST OTP KISS! Fox clan tradition is a person of power has to do everything first, or everyone else has to wait another decade....

Our OTP is lethargic.
Greeting the day with absolute dismay.
Main girls cafe friend decided to give her a whole day of activities to feel better.
A very OTP filled episode. Its always nice to see.
The bro's were a nice contributing factor this episode :D

Slight spoilers upcoming.
Called it!
Father betrayed son.
Betrayers who will not be renamed unless they can redeem themselves got on a plane to the US. She went to see them off but turned back.
She then went on her dream date that she had planned for their valentines day... with male lead. It was cute, but also sad and filled with regret. The OTP is worth it.

Well... this episode gives us flashbacks of the bro's.
They are having a tiff. I'm not 100% certain how cafe friend is factoring into this..
FINALLY some actual OTP time. I needed this. Without it... theres no breather. It's refreshing when one sees them interact.
OH MY GOD.
SHE SAW THEM.
SHE CALLED THEM.
IT HAPPENED!
She took it so badly, yet calmly with dignity. My heart just broke.
The OTP is just so cute. This episode was great.

Spoilers just in case you want to avoid that.
More in-depth view on the ending of the previous episode... happened in the beginning of this episode.
The bro's came to main girls cafe friend and played the we're both pursuing her angle :D SO GOOD!
Male lead came and scared female lead. She screamed and her "boyfriend" who was about to tell her he's now with her "best friend" but stopped when he was convinced by the "best friend" not to say anything. Then he came to her aid. That made male lead angry as all hell. He made things get electric.
I want her to realize the truth about her two closest people.
She was so scared of him that she endangered him. The fear is realistic, and how he deals with it is mostly realistic, but more so genuine.

This episode is so funny.
We have banter, exaggerated acting to get ones way, the cuteness of the bros finishing off sentences :D
More of the icky feeling inducing concision emotional betrayal. Its just... I don't like it.
Back to the funny.. OH my goodness.. I thought he would lie about himself... but no just straight to his whole life... Its so refreshing... She's reacting like a real person to his stuff sooo... Just fantastic.
My hat goes off to you episode 5. Great 20% point of the drama so far :D

This episode was great. Its got mission impossible, or suspenseful thievery or con movie stuff going down (Like ocean's 11-12-13 and Thieves). Its one where the main lead gets her way even without having to fight for it very hard. He made it happen for her. It was so exciting and cute. So cute. The musical selections were also really suitable from scene to scene. There was a lot of messages, plus possible future pairings. There was even a little bit of sadness brought on by realizations. Its getting gradually more to the point..

This episode was also quite serious. Nice flashbacks. More let's say... emotional betrayal? Unconcious emotional betrayal. Yup. It doesn't make me feel too great. Not as much comedy, but it still helped pave a bit more information down on this dramas highway.
The interactions between our main leads this episode is especially nice though :D
Just saying comparing this to episode 1 doesn't help its rating....

Okay seeing more conflict this episode. The bromance between male lead's best friends is still solid. I fully get the fate usage throughout this episode. Seems to have a bunch of friend/love conflict. Its a bit stressful, but without it the main couple probably won't be able to proceed in a natural manner. This episode was good for moving things forward. Makes me look forward to episode 3.

Not going to lie that was one of the classiest first episodes I've seen in a while. It didn't miss a beat. It was serious, yet also charming, and very funny. I also like how its premise is different yet follows a basically well known cliche of first loves. Just done differently and well :D Heres to watching more. Also just saying I love that 3 way bromance :D The car scene was just LIFE.
