The MDL brief doesn't quite do the job .. little misleading .. A 9.5/10 for me
0.5 deducted for extra long .. could have been 2-3 eps shorter. Lots of repeats that made the drama droop a lot.
BUT still .. such a great brain workout watching these characters. SUPERB actors ALL ..
My first taste of a unique Kdrama .. couldnt believe that the writer - director and production company all agreed to take a risk making it .. SATISFYING ending .. I almost dreaded them screwing it up with a banal moralising
I'm only halfway through right now but IMHO wife served up her husband on a silver platter. What a stupid and…
Such a relief to have cheerleaders for this challenging and difficult drama that took guts to write and act in... Given what kneejerk judgemental reactions viewers get when a drama doesnt serve up the usual templates of characters and expectations and story line.
I thought I'd be the ONLY person who would be TOTALLY flipping on the brilliant and unique drama that this is 🥂🍷
Have binged and reached Ep 11!!!
Mind is blown that a script writer could have written such a challenging drama theme in this "industry"
WOWOWOW. Kudos I have to say.
I won't dare to look at the discussion board. I feel 💯💯💯 certain it is a blood bath!!!
I haven't read the most popular review that had the guts to give this a 9.5 because I dont want spoilers. But I will return to read it and see if ourvreasons for loving the drama are they same.
Recall the SFL (Rose's bestie at work) 'molestation trauma' story? The exploration of her relationship with Rose's brother? The terrible impact it left on her psyche for more than a decade .. The Drama had gone to VERY difficult places in search of the character's arc over the years into the present .. slow and evocative .. Not dull .. not ALL dark .. but very deep and thoughtful ..
Just asking ..
Is TFF a slice of life drama that goes on to explore in similar vein the true breadth of impact it has on this FL and her relationships?
Or is this just a romance drama MOSTLY about cute, sweet chasing of a 'traumatized girl' by a green flag guy who becomes her angel and saviour?
Saviours as heros .. and Victims as trapped and then freed by the saviour is a Drama nectar that seems to have enduring obsession power
All the best.
Suspend ALL conventional expectations - just observe the actions and words and the juxtaposition of scenes as drama builds the characters.
It's reflective and slow paced - no easy sitting back to have the drama flow over you - you'll enjoy the "thinking and analyzing"
You may or may not have a stomach for such a brave off beat Drama.
I was quite amazed to find such a bunch of admirers on this forum though, when I expected an all out cuss and diss parade.
☠️😅☠️
I just watched it.
Thank God iy was not a stale and banal tale of moralising and taking side ..
what superb actors and characters they played.
Well DONE to team Temptation
I just finished watching I and also left some comments on the main discussion board ..
You are a strict rater thought ;-p
I have in a 9.5/10
This drama was so polarising .. split the viewers into camps with very string opinion.

Yeah.
The story fell so differently on viewers.
Strong polarization of opinions
Just finished it in one weekend binge watch.
It was so riveting

:-D
That's exactly what my takeaway was.
Interesting that TFF brought you here ;-p
Bless you. Someone will find you .
Amen.
