I don't love it but I enjoyed it. Similarly to other people, the beginning was pretty bland. Lead's chemistry was somehow off too even though this was not their first time acting with each other.
I started to really enjoy this drama right after the ML let FL's in law knew who he was. The second half was definitely better although the ending was a bit too face paced for me. Also, I kind of spotted that plot twist in main lead's relationship a while back; pretty sad imo for the FL because we all knew what she went through and now understand why.
hi :) do you mind spoiling if they get together early on or if it's more towards the end? thank you :))
Oh my goodness, if you had asked me about this three weeks ago, I probably would've remembered more. 😭 I watch way too many short dramas, so all the scenes start blending together after a while.
From what I can remember, their relationship was pretty complicated, so they didn't get together right away. But even then, you could feel the connection between them. There was care and warmth towards each other. After overcoming some obstacles did they finally get with each other, and from that moment on, neither of them ever wavered.

This was soooooo good! One that finally got me excited and gushing over the romance since it's been a while. It does have some flaws when it comes to wrapping up certain plot points, but most of the loose ends were tied up beautifully especially when both leads found out what their significant other had done for them. It was beautiful.
I loved ZHM's character! Best character of his so far, imo. He was x10 hotter in this. Usually, I’m not that fond of YY, but I loved how ruthless her character was here; she gets straight to the point.
I don't know why this short drama was ranked pretty high. The FL can't stand up for herself to save her life. Sigh. The most ridiculous thing is that she wasted 10 years on a scumbag. The main saving grace is the ML, but eh... he deserves better.
Not bad, but not that great either. FL was gorgeous and her character went through a lot. I'm glad that they made her strong all the way until the end. ML was adorable and his voice sounds so good, but I just wish they would have done more with his character. Loved the cameo couple from "My Lethal Man".
Not bad, a decent watch. The reveal came kind of late imo which makes the ending rushed all though it did tied up all the loose ends but no climax either. I couldn't take my eyes off of Eleanor. She aged so beautifully.
Girl! I agree. This drama wasn't even anything special, and I still don't know how fenale lead and her secretary…
I agree. Should have communicated that plan and then executed it. Good thing I skipped all that unnecessary drama or I would have dropped it like you. Honestly, I almost did until I realized after finishing ep 9 that ep 10 was already out.
Just started episode 10 and am dropping for now because I am so annoyed. I’m sick of noble idiocy, sick of characters…
Girl! I agree. This drama wasn't even anything special, and I still don't know how fenale lead and her secretary fell for their guy, but we are supposed to just roll with it, and then ep 9 takes the cake. I was so annoyed and skimmed through the episode to find an even more absurb story trope of the second male lead betraying them, ugh. But, I also hard-core skimmed through ep 10 all the way to the middle when the brother came for his public speech lol.
Maaaan, I get the low rating. That ending was like WTH? lol. I saw up to ep 7 and ML coughed up blood and I'm like nooooope I'm checking the last ep, aaaaannnnd it's not what I thought, but it's still horrible.

Same, same lol. I did watch the beginning like in 2x mode because it was a bit uncomfortable, but once ML accepted it, it transitioned into an interesting dynamic in their relationship. I agree about ML being a koala! He was in denial and obsessed with the FL lol. For the FL, at first, it was unbearable with her character, but then later on her character became the comedic relief. I didn't realize it at first since it came so naturally that her and ML swapped roles. ML does it to her while she's unconscious. I think I could fully enjoy this because they still made ML a smart, cunning, and powerful character. Yes, he's weak to FL, but he still does what he needs to do. And, I agree about this couple guininely having a great time even when they were sneaking around lmao.
