"She entered a contract marriage with a time-limited conglomerate. "
What does it mean?
"A time limited marriage"... I understand, but "a time-limited conglomerate"...? Does he have a terminal illness? Does he have to marry quickly to receive the inheritance? I hope it is the later.

So far it is a slow build of romance (just `beeing more comfortable talking to a stanger than friends") but if you want to skip is up to you. It is sweet and feels organic. The romance will be in later episodes but it won`t be the main plot. There are lots of characters. And another couple has just met. Another 6 episodes to show some romance is not much.

PS: And the other two women from the group are married. And we are seeing their relationship with their husbands. 'Love is in the air'. LOL

There is romance but it is not the main plot.

Yeah, he was useless all the time. Even people in the town commented that she had multiple jobs to get him out of troubles. Even without the cheating, I wanted him out of her life.

Me too. I even rewatch the last episodes while waiting for new ones. 😆

Yes. When she said after the divorce that she won`t look back again at past it was a strong statement that she wants to live a new, better life.
The transformations came gradually and I love how natural the progress came. I love all four protagonists but I root for Jung Suk the most. She is meek but yet so strong. This story is her journey`s transformation. With a right suport she will transform into a confident woman. We`ll see a new Jung Suk soon.

Thanks for the explanation. Now I get it.

I think it is an expression that mean a `Trojan horse`, a gift given with a treacherous purpose but riot.... I don`t get the joke either. LOL

I am sure that he will get exposed but I doubt that there will be such commotion from the villagers.

What is infuriating, is the latest gossip. From the preview, the gossipers ladies will blame Jung Suk again. That man lured a woman to his farm and almost raped her and they are taking his side and don`t believe Jung Suk or diminished her experience. I can`t wait to see Jung Suk taking action. She will eventually go to the police station along with her friends to confront the man, I assume. I can`t wait.

I love it but it depends on each person.

"Rampant divorce, philandering, wife-swapping “key” parties were a real thing (which I have always found disturbingly creepy), I remember two high school classmates who openly dated teachers." Depressing view. 🤢

Seung Soo was not the man for Jung Sook. Divorce is a sad thing but in this case, I am glad that she won`t be his wife. The cheating was the last straw. But Do Hyun is a perfect man for her. I loved the quality time he spent with the boys. At first he was overwhelmed by the new resposability but in the end, he liked it. He was smiling.

Yes. He is not important to the story. I am not happy that he had an accident but I thanked him for the quality time Do hyun spent with Min Ho.

Even the kids were bullying other kids because of the divorce of their parents. It was a perpetual stigma to be a divorcee, especially for women. Some women were victims of abuse or they were cheated but they still blame them to be divorced/single mothers.

I think that incident will not be in Korean version. We`ll see.

I think they will keep it comical. There are just 6 episodes and a lot of other problem to resolve. I don`t think they will put Yeong Bok`s husband in another plot. And I am glad it is this way.

Today, October 29, the cast and crew attended the wrap-up party for JTBC's 'Quiet Sales' held at Heukdonga in Yeouido, Seoul.

Hi! I watched the British series. There weren`t unfinished business.
There was a happy ending for everyone.

Acording the original, Do Hyun will be together with Jung Suk. The Korean version is just like a kdrama but I like how the writer builds Jung Suk`s transformation and her relationship with Do Hyun. They left out some unnecessary drama for other characters and insisted more on the leads. And they added content for Do Hyun`s story.

There are articles with good reviews about the acting and writing.

Maybe we`ll find it soon. 😅

I understand completely. I am waiting to see Jung Suk realizing that she likes him too. I bet that she will confess first or kiss him first. LOL
Let see if I am right.
