I just read her profile and it explains everything. It screams narcissist troll. I guess this is her hobby. *shrugs*

You've been surface since you got here. As surface as this pitiful plot lol

I love both of those dramas yes, and if you read my reviews I make it clear why. Stories can be silly and unrealistic and fun and entertaining but bad writing is bad writing. Both of those dramas have many things this drama fails at... better chemistry, a story arch with beats that fill the entire 16 episodes without repeating the same conflict ad nauseam, comedy that actually made me laugh, characters that are memorable and actually show growth/change, not being boring... So yeah... a much higher level than this drama which wasted my time with a format that went nowhere and made no sense. They heard each other's confessionals and didn't recognize their voices? lol! The more you try to talk down to me in defense of this drama the more I realize how bad it is. Did you write your own review? You should probably do that if you haven't instead of trying to attack mine. I don't mind a debate but this is getting ridiculous and your attempts to insult me on top of that is sad. Just talk about the drama and it would be fine. Try to talk about me as a person when you know nothing about me says more about your comprehension than you liking bad dramas. Find your fangirls on this page and gush away, but if you continue down this path prepare to get embarrassed. You picked the exact wrong one on the wrong day. It's a pandemic... I got time... *insert my eye roll and tea-sipping here*

Trust me I'm an adult. A very grown adult who also studied writing in college so no need to try to be condescending because you like a drama that I think is awful. That's not exactly a mature approach to a review.

I totally agree! Especially about the lack of consistency... and also about the MMS shower kiss.

clearly you like this drama but I assure you I missed nothing. The writing was bad, simplistic, and repetitive. I assure you it didn't go over my head, it went under my taste level if anything. You should also use the spoiler button if you're going to go into detail about the little bit of story this drama has to offer. Speaking of dopamine... this drama produced the opposite effect on me. This drama was more Melatonin... because it was boring. I'm not sure what happened in your life that made this drama a reflection of "true love" but ****spoilers***** hiding from a man you had a fling with for several episodes instead of just coming clean about it is bad writing, sorry not sorry. Especially since I caught on that she was lying about who she was by episode 2 and couldn't figure out why I had to wait so long to finally learn why. Each relationship could have been presented and resolved in 2 episodes max, even the main one. I stand by my review and I said what I said. I could spend hours going over all the things that didn't work or make sense about this drama but I already gave it too much time out of my life. You're very adamant about liking it so I thought I'd let you know that I'm just as adamant about how much this drama missed the mark.

I'm glad that helped. I know that feeling.

I sympathize with hm way more that I do with her but still think he was clingy from the beginning.

I’m the opposite. This is one of the few dramas of his that I’m ready to drop.

It’s been a while and I’m still annoyed. I’m trying to keep watching but I may not make it to the end. The scenarios are getting too repetitive.

You’re welcome! I’m glad because I do the same thing.

A lot of people liked it for sure, but not me!

I just started and so far talking to the camera this much is annoying me. I hope it gets better.

I can’t believe I didn’t hate Bong Sun the first time I watched this. Lol! Opinions definitely change over the years!

Wow! This drama really doesn’t age well but I’m still having fun rewatching it and still like Shi Yoon. It’s good if you’re in the mood for an old school drama.

This drama is so bad but I still enjoy watching it. it’s been so long since I watched it for the first time.

Considering "Parasite", this comment didn't age well lol!

i liked it but lol!!!

I just watched it twice back to back lol!

I agree with the multiple endings, although I loved the idea of Ben being a serial killer than no one but Jong Soo would ever suspect. My first idea is that Jong Soo's jealousy drove him to mistrust Ben from the start and that allowed him to see what no one else did. Ben knew this and that's why he "shared" his hobby with him and became interested. I think he may have found it "fun" to be seen by Joon Soo.

The second interpretation I agree with is that everything we see after him writing in Hae Mi's room is not real and it's how he resolves things in his head and finally has a story to tell... using Ben's burning metaphor literally.

Another interpretation could be that Hae Mi, completely depressed, decided to "disappear" like she mentioned and committed suicide. That means Ben is only guilty of not being concerned enough to care that she's gone.

I think all 3 are his way of escaping the guilt of his last exchange with Hae Mi.
The first way is classic - revenge, which makes him physically sick - but allows him to drive away almost reborn. The second is through expressing himself through his writing, which he was struggling to find inspiration to do. The last is him transferring all the blame to Ben for manipulating her instead of taking responsibility for how he wasn't there for her.

I watched it twice now and my thoughts keep changing. That's what makes it so good!
