Watching for the Cooking Scenes, Dropping for the Main Lead
Not even making it to the last three episodes which everyone says are trash cause I for the life of me cannot understand the appeal of the male lead. He’s such a child, it’s unfathomable how he’s the romantic lead in ANY story. He was kinda fun to watch till episode 7 and now he’s spent two episodes jerking the female lead around for NO reason. I truly cannot stand any scene he’s been in the last two episodes and I’m so confused why the female lead would want to be with him any capacity.
Episode 7-9 are just him huffing around like a child, refusing to communicate, blackmailing her over and over again and being overly possessive over someone who is NOT his girlfriend or his employee. He only really seems interested in her when there’s another man around who also shows interest in her. It’s a pissing contest between two men and the female lead is just there waiting for one of them to choose her. In the earlier episodes, she had some backbone and would stand up for herself but that seemed to have dissolved into water sometime in episode 7 and now she's sitting on the sidelines waiting for the men to duke it out and decide whose going to win.
I forwarded to the part where they get together and I’ve never felt so justified in dropping a drama before. They get together because he literally forces her to kiss him in front of the SML and makes her choice for her. Then she quits her job at a company that respects her and aligns with her passion and goals to go back to his company and become his secretary?? If this is romance, sign up up for a lifetime of spinsterhood.
Pro: I genuinely enjoyed the first four to five episodes where she's teaching him to cook. The love of cooking and the art of food is some of the best parts of this show and the reason it got any points with me at all.
