I really don't like how the show portrays his treatment of Sina. It's just really creepy. Like I can tell the show is going for a comical take but it's just no funny when a man with power, money, blackmail, and absolute control forces a woman to do stuff for him. Even if the stuff are just menial labor and shenanigans.

Also, Korea doesn't have human resources in their companies?

Not gonna lie, I did not find the "enslaving her as revenge" part funny at all. Modern slavery is a thing and it's horrifying and it's never funny.
He always had ALL the power and still does. Being weird about the temperature of your coffee and other inconsequential crap that really don't matter are not reason enough to abuse your workers and he totally had it coming when she lashed out. So the fact that he's acting like he's the victim is so annoying.
It was just really uncomfortable for me to watch that part.
Edit: Well, a while ago I saw a documentary about a woman who was sold as a slave to a family and she worked as a cleaning lady for them for years and it was very traumatic for her and super upsetting to watch and this was an awful lot like that and it totally reminded me of it and I do not see why saying it made me uncomfortable for a very specific reason is something that the whole website feels like downplaying? If someone was okay with that in a comedic context? Fine! That's their business.
I was not fine. It made me very uncomfortable. It's not deep. It's not a movement against the show. I'm not saying the show is taking a stance on modern slavery. I'm not accusing the creators of endorsing whatever. I am saying that was very uncomfortable for me to watch. It upset me. It's just how I felt. I don't get why everyone is trying to explain to me why I'm overreacting?!

Oh! Well, I guess I saw the last announcement when I still didn't know who he is!😅

Wasn't there a different actor attached to this project, initially?

I remember when I first saw this show, the premise was so interesting but this new synopsis is really...🥴
Maybe this is wrong?

I see. Interesting!

Oooh! So if there are any shows ending this week, it just shows the shows ends in the near future? I didn't know that!

This show doesn't end this week. It ends next week. Why is it on the list of shows ending this week?

Is this a high school drama? Did the synopsis change?

I thought "pandering to straight people" was when gay characters are sanitised and stripped of their sexual agency to appear appropriate and harmless to heteronormative values?🤔
So like making explicit stuff is the opposite of that? Am I wrong?

I'm so glad this was my first kdrama. 🙂

I really don't like Min Woo. He's such a gross guy! He strings Hari along for years without confirming or denying her feelings, gets back with his ex, and then makes eyes at Hari. What a tool!
On top of all this, he acts so insulted at the prospect of Hari dating someone else. like...wtf?! He expects her to just remain single and simp for him while he's dating someone else. What logic is that? Hate that guy!

Yeah, it can happen but it's usually a bad call because ratings would suffer. I personally would give a really low rating to a show that pulls that sh*t, you know?

It's not impossible...but I think the show is too camp to go the tragedy route. It'll be like shooting itself in the foot to switch tones so drastically.

Yeah I feel like the show drags a bit. It could be shorter but it's still okay.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel that the show is establishing a romantic tension between ml and sfl but none between fl and ml?🤔

Aww i ends this week?😭😭😭😭
Can't wait to watch it with the good subs.

Good call! It's very hard to wait for new episodes.

Like what?
She's totally going through stages of grief but I think the anger is so big that it has sipped into the bargaining so she has settled in revenge.
