This portrays the society we, unfortunately, live in. Hopefully people who watched this will think twice before they act. When you don’t think about the consequences of your decisions, be it deciding to go somewhere or be with someone or making judgements and sharing things without knowing what really happened, you could easily become a victim or play a role in ruining someone else’s life.

Before you share something about someone try imagining yourself in that person’s situation. If it was you in that picture or video, would you be ok with people sharing it? If the answer is no, then don’t do it.

The story itself was not interesting for me and I skipped a lot of things, but it did transmit some important lessons so it was not all bad.

I am sorry to disagree but if you have no problem destroying other people’s lives and ordering murders for the sake of you beliefs then you are yes, an extremely selfish person. Her character was well played, yes, but she was never likeable much less selfless. She admitted to everything 1 - because of her beliefs like you said and 2 - because she knew she had no way out and admitting to her crimes would reduce her sentence. Nothing she did was ever for anyone other than herself. She wanted to be on top (no pun intended) of everyone else and be able to control things since previously she could never feel that powerful for being a woman in the law system. She even bit the hand that fed her by attempting to murder Mo Wang Pyo once and succeeding at the second attempt. Terrorists also kill people because of their beliefs, but that does not make their actions acceptable. Ms. Han will never be a hero or a character whose actions were justifiable. The actress nailed the character and it was interesting to watch but the ending failed us viewers. With the kinds of crimes she committed she should not be allowed to get out of jail only after 4 years when an innocent person spent 15 years there, and much less given any power by still having 4 individuals show loyalty to her. If anything that end showed how in real life sometimes the villains still win or get away easily.

Barely any romance, it was even removed from the genres here on MDL. In the last episodes there is some development and a few kisses but before that the main leads were more like comrades that fought together for the same objective - to reveal the truth about the murder.

The female lead was the highlight of this drama. There were also other characters I enjoyed seeing on screen, like Wan Soo. The plot itself is what makes me feel confused. At times it felt very boring and frustrating to watch and at other times there were completely unexpected secrets being revealed. For me the ones I could never guess although I saw some hints here and there were Wan Joon’s secret and Seok Hee’s real origin. Wan Soo’s secret I antecipated but was still in denial because I liked his character so much. The ending, after the bloopers, was unrealistic to me. Who has that kind of loyalty for someone? It felt like the writers wanted to create some mystery and that was the only reason that scene was added.

Oh well, overall it was not a bad drama. Wish we had more female leads like Seok Hee.

I explained it in my first comment.

Happy? Yes. Satisfying? No. She ends up with the male lead, Qi Jing Hao.

No problem, I do the same, I check the comments without spoiling it too much just to check people’s reactions to it. This one was too much even for a Chinese drama. They did not let the female lead have love or biological children, she was once pregnant but they made her lose the baby and at the end the most happy she could be was being alone raising someone else’s child. What a sad life she had.

The focus of the drama just wasnt what I wanted. It mostly focused on the schemes of the second female lead and at times she had more screen time than the female lead. There just wasnt enough of the main leads together. I wanted to see a lot more of them. The male lead was such an interesting character but he could not shine with this plot, what a shame.

Yeah, that’s what I thought. I have seen a lot of people commenting that they have sent the request a long time ago and it has not been accepted yet. T T

Do you know what happened to this one? I can only find the teaser. Did she end up not subbing it, cause its not on the completed projects nor the future projects.

You’re welcome. Wish someone else had spoiled me too so I would not waste my time watching. The story was well written and the acting was good but they just messed it up by killing all the men she loved and making her the victim of so many tragedies.

I love cats, they are my favourite animal. Once I actually had 11 cats at home because the 2 female cats I had (mother and daughter) gave birth around the same time. But not even my love for cats could make me enjoy this drama. The story felt so empty and boring. It did not make any sense that almost every guy around her liked her when she was someone pretty rude and that easily misunderstood people. As much as I like the actress, actually I don’t dislike any of them, the plot just wasn't strong enough for me. After watching half of it I just skimmed through the other half to get it over with.

For people who have not realised this yet, this was dropped by the subber because a lot of people were being impatient and rude. I only watched the 1st episode and honestly it was way below my expectations, but I still wanted to give it a few more episodes before deciding if I would keep watching. Now I guess I will not have a chance to do it anymore.

Have you joined the group? I have sent a request for months now and it is still pending.

I will still give it a try just out of curiosity but that means I will either drop it or skip a lot of scenes/episodes just to get it over with. Thanks for letting me know so I wont go in with high expectations or anything.

Yeah. It was all a dream so nothing of what happened in the dream affected things around her when she woke up. But the ending was kind of intriguing.

In the first episode we saw Yi Pei protecting her and in the dream she was the one who did it. Yi Pei survived and seemed a lot healthier than her and he looked back at her as they walked away at the hospital. It makes you wonder if there was an overlap between the dream and real life and originally she was the one who protected him. It just does not make much sense since she was pregnant. But then, it would not make much sense for him to do it either since he did not even know her or love her. They answered all the major questions but left us with that scene at the hospital to make us raise other questions that will never be answered...the writers are so savage lol

Really? Without spoilers, why did you drop it? I usually drop chinese dramas when they become extremely draggy, the main characters keep making dumb decisions or the supporting characters are too many or take over most of the screen time. Which of these 3 is closer to the reason you dropped it?

Their biggest problem was lack of communication. He never said I love you and I am not cheating on you and she never admitted that she loved him either and let him believe she was an easy woman. He, I believe, actually fell in love way before she did, although I agree that her character was made weak, that does not mean there was nothing to love. She was kind to everyone, good at taking care of the house like cooking and stuff and most important, she took care of Margy like she was her own kid. I agree that most of her decisions were pretty dumb but you need to put yourself in her shoes. She thought of her husband as someone who hired her to play a role, he never truly loved her and had a mistress. Would you want a person like that to be your husband for the rest of your life and the father of your kids? In her eyes she knew she loved him but thought he didn’t and Jed was always there, he would be the perfect husband and father.

So yeah, both were at fault and at the same time neither were at fault. Had they just cared to be more honest about their feelings to each other and not let the lack of communication cause misunderstandings, then they would not have problems in their relationship...but that would also mean there would be no drama to drag this to be 20 episodes. Most thai dramas do this. For me, the most interesting part was while Margy was there. Once there was no more Margy, which was like you said around ep 15, then the last episodes became very draggy and I skipped a lot of things.

Kids and pets always make things better. The addition of the Margy made the whole story a lot more interesting to watch and while she was there we were given funny moments, sweet moments and also sad moments. In terms of plot her character was very important. Once her character was not present anymore, the story became less interesting. I do have to say that with all his faults, the male lead was a lot better than the summary and my experience watching thai dramas made me expect. The story itself had a more of older vibe since this is a drama from 2011, and because of that there were the usual misunderstandings because of lack of communication and seeing things out of context. That together with the exit of Margy’s character made the show quite draggy. Thankfully Margy is introduced pretty early in the drama and exits not a lot of episodes before the ending. And that is pretty much all I have to say. Male lead was not THAT bad and Margy made everything better. Other than that this was your average thai drama, nothing special about it.

Ikr. Most chinese dramas completely give away the plot in the intros, endings and mvs. That is why even if the songs are nice I always skip the intros and close the video as soon as the ending song starts. Although in the case of princess weiyoung my sister was the one who spoiled it. She watched it before me and when I mentioned the drama she was like: isn’t that the drama where the male lead..... ugh, I still hate her for that to this day T T
