If you don’t communicate or show your interests - yes, that can happen. The ML didn’t communicate what he liked and he was perfectly happy doing things that the FL liked. He was even more excited about new movie releases, and so on. So there was no way for the FL to know what he actually liked. As soon as she learned, she was upset about it.
Of course, the portrayal of money offering/taking and the whole chaebol family setup in dramas is not very realistic.
Regarding the promise to his mother to break up, it was explained that she expected to break up with him sooner or later after learning about his background.
I’m not saying the FL is perfect; I just don’t think she is a red flag. Her character is actually well-written compared to other dramas, and her motivation is more or less clear. She has struggled a lot, worked hard, and achieved much. She understands her background and how it is viewed by society she lives in, and she also needs to take care of her brother. She wants a cozy, warm, and kind relationship and not to deal with something she will always be anxious about.

I think it was explained as she wanted to give him a reason to hate her to ease the breakup. After she learned about his background, she expected this meeting to happen sooner or later, so she kind of went along with it. I’ll be speculating, but from the show so far, it seems that she hasn’t touched or used this money for anything, nor does she intend to.

I felt that FL struggles are well explained in the drama. She had tons of responsibility as a kid and growing up, and now she's acting like an over-responsible adult who is actually inherently very warm and kind. Even with the breakup, she takes responsibility and plans to quit her job. She honestly does not think they belong together in the future, even though she struggles and has strong feelings. It is complex, but how is it a red flag? It seems realistic and human.
You’re not alone. I thought it was a snoooze fest. It felt like a filler episode. I think I’m going to wait…
So accurate about music, it felt empty sometimes. I am debating whether to continue watching or to wait towards the end. I guess I will see how it goes tomorrow..
Am I the only one who didn't enjoy the first episode much? I was really looking forward to it, and I love both leads, but I found myself not invested by the end of the first episode...
Haven’t watched an ongoing romcom drama in while coz of the heartbreak I got from Yumi’s Cells and Monthly…
Not related to CE, but I loved Yumi’s Cells! Those cells were so cute :) I kind of felt like knowing why things were hapenning was helpful to accept what was hapenning.
can you guys please recommend me dramas with male lead like Seonjae?
From my experience, there are not many rom-coms that are as lightly and nicely written and filmed as Lovely Runner. True Beauty matches the style, as they come from the same writer. So, the recommendations below are somewhat different in style and genre. 1. Park Hyungsik dramas: Doctor Slump, Soundtrack #1, Happiness, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. His characters tend to be supportive and very warm towards the FL. 2. First Love: Hatsukoi - it's Jdrama about fated love. 3. I second Castaway Diva - it's one of the best 2023 dramas for me. 4. Lovestruck in the City - while often overlooked because of a new concept, I appreciated the way leads explained their decisions and feelings through interviews. Also chemistry is amazing, 5. Marry My Husband - this is a revenge drama with nice but more introverted ML. 6. When I Fly Towards You - very sweet, coming out of age Cdrama. 7. I second Someday or One Day - it's a masterpiece.
