Because the leads ended up together. The FL is toxic, selfish and manipulative and I fear for the male lead of having to ended/putting up with her for the rest of his life.

They both entered the marriage with terms. She know it yet she punished him when he did something to her disliking despite its all in the terms. Then when he finally falls for her, she broke him to the point he cant no longer live in the same house that he used to love so much. The icing on the cake is that she knew how hurt his ex made him, yet she did it anyway and broke-up with him despite knowing that he loves her too. Then, she just waltz back to his life like nothing happened and expecting him to accept her again. The whole script is so pretentious that I dont know how many times I rolled my eyes lol! :(

Just curious, in the first part of the novel, is the kissing scene supposed to be that way just like in the drama? Because you mentioned steaming kissing romance in the second part of the novel and I wondered is it possible lol

It wasnt written last minute. Both writer and Hyeri confirmed that and the writer has always wanted Taek to be the end game. Thats the brilliant of the whole show, when you watched it the first time, Junghwan is the ML without a doubt so everyone as usual, is rooting for him (everyone keep saying how Taek is gonna be another Chilbong). Then the ending happened which many of people (including the casts) are surprised. Then, you made a rewatch and you will notice since the very beginning all the little the hints that Taek is the hubby.

Why I said it is brilliant? Because the writer masterfully misled the audiences with her writing -- only to betray it last minute and when you analyze her script to prove how wrong she is in making the ending, you will dumbfounded to find all these little hints that supported her ending -- that her ending has always meant that way since the very beginning.

This is normal tbh. People always complain about toxic guys but they love bad guys in general. That is why in dramas where female leads actually like or choose a nice guy for once, people would rants non-stop how they dislike how everything ended. I'm really puzzled why wont you like a FL with brain that actually wants to chose someone nice and more deserving of her?

Can you refresh me on the ending of Missing Noir M? For the life of me I totally have forgotten about it

I'm more puzzled why on earth Fated to Love You is on the list? What is there not to like with the ending lol

I agree with you regarding viewers rate masterpieces with low ratings just because they dislike how life was during that time despite how accurate the dramas were in portraying that era. I think when you watch dramas, you need to put aside your prejudice and view the drama objectively instead of wanting it to follow your narrative esp when it involved real history. Sad ending doesnt mean it is a bad dramas like what some people like to think.

But to be fair, I rated Scarlet Heart Ryeo low (4/10) not because I dislike the story nor the ending. I genuinely think the drama was a mess in term of script and everything. The inconsistency in the script makes me so frustrated and I was puzzled who the hell penned this drama since it seemed to be written by such amateur writer -- the kind of quality I didn't expect to see in sageuk since I'm used to watch high quality sageuk which are excellent in the script department.

Have you try something like Tree With Deep Roots or Six Flying Dragon? From my years of watching dramas, the best written ones are usually historical dramas as it it usually written by really talented and experienced writer. Or if you a fan of C-dramas, I would recommend something like Nirvana in Fire and you gonna be blown away with how intelligent the whole script is -- the mind games, deceptions and manipulations are very interesting to watch -- something that you rarely seen in normal dramas.

Oh yess!! I think its a first time where a lead actually do a satisfying killing (instead forgiving or become merciful). Shot the enemy's limbs one by one so he can understand the gravity of the crime he committed then kill him by a shot in the head. I think because the ML is from the future, his way of thinking is also different -- he knew this kind of man would never change. I thought the ML looks really dashing starting with the torture scene with the guard at the shed to the rescue scene haha. You dont mess with my woman or you will get my wrath kind of thing lol

What Jdramas that China remake? Can you give 3 of them? I think I want to try it since I love Jdramas in general

I've been watching dramas for a long time so I was there during the popularity of T-dramas and I cant never watch them for the overacting of the casts. So despite it being classic, I never enjoyed them in the first place so I actually prefers the remakes much more for the better script and realistic acting. I think its a matter of preference.

Like people keeps going on about Fated to Love You T-version but I for one never enjoy them and I had a lot of issues with the plot lol. The Korean & Chinese remakes did better take on some of the plots so I ended up enjoying it more than the original version.

Whats wrong with the ending? I thought its a happy ending?

At that time, even kisses are considered taboo thus she was really traumatized by it.

haha thanks!

I finished this drama today and I can safely say it is one of my fave romcom ever (in any language). Full of fluff from start to finish and the male lead is great like really great lol and the female lead is beyond adorable. I love how healthy is their relationship and there are no games or pettiness but just love and admiration towards each other. :DDD

Can you tell me what's the ending?

I still cant believe how young he is as he is always being paired with much older actresses in his dramas. But his charisma, confident and the ability to lead his co-actresses has always amazed me. And not to mention he always in good productions! I love each one of his dramas and despite he plays the same character (young CEO, rich and handsome), he played it differently each time and he bring life to the characters. His ability to play each character differently has always been one of his finest strength.

For new fans, he does take variety of roles but his popular dramas has always been The Eternal Love series and his romantic comedies. I would recommend Marry Me, I Cannot Hug You, Blowing in the Wind and Standing in the Time if you want something different from him. I particularly recommend 'Marry Me' as its probably the closest to his real life personality lol.

I really don't understand why they put that hideous hairstyles on her. Practically other female characters looks better with better hairstyles and clothes. I just dont understand it -- like at all lol

I think it depends on preference. I personally watched more Kdramas (start watching since 2 decades ago) and I never liked their romcom except a few. But I loved most C-romcom that I watched to my surprise despite not knowing any of the actors. I usually find the FLs in C-romcom likable and lovely compared to the FLs in K-romcom which I mostly found stupid and annoying. I think it all comes down to preference.
