Mixed feelings about the ending... I rather the ending be the banker/chef mix Hyunchul ends up with Hyejin....…
It’s superficial love…the memories were that of the deceased SHC. The real chef SHC wouldn’t have loved or be loved by Hyejin…he would only know & trust the real love of his other wife and probably be happier with it. If it had ended the way you wanted then it can only be betrayal…no matter how you see it he was willing to throw away his whole family that he was extremely happy with beforehand for another woman. The ending is perfect.
Man I didn’t expect that and got smacked with red eyes… yet strangely was satisfied with the ending (her part) eventually. I checked the sequel & realised I watched it ages ago with a bit of confusion…I gave it an average rating but I think i’ll rewatch it again.
Either Chat Jong Hyeop is be opting for short dramas or they’re rolling short around his busy schedule…and he sure likes the ones where his character uses a different language. This is fine for a relaxing mind…go in with too much expectations and you’ll loose the enjoyment of watching something nice and simple…so I understand claims that it was slow for some. All the characters interaction is one to be enjoyed and learned…I especially enjoyed Mr Kim’s role. It doesn’t get a highest rate from me but it definitely doesn’t deserve a low one. I binge this between some old favourite thrillers and it worked just fine.
Just watched the trailer on Netflix and the part where Mu Jin grabbed his wife from falling on his commemoration table got me laughing out loud from so much cringeyness 😂
I rather want to see him turn into psycho, why that privilege mostly given to 2fl only. Why kdrama writers don't…
Seen plenty with nice SFL with Feelings for ML…but viewers choose to forget them after the show or only see them as friends of FL in the end. Like this SML they had character growth. A lot are choosing not to see this SML as friends of ML in the end but kept him noted as “annoying guy who liked FL”.
I’ve added a list below with some I can think of right now.. -It’s Ok Not to be ok -Hi, Bye Mama! -Terious Behind Me -Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo -Find yourself
There are a few more I can think of but I won’t count them here because they ended up having their own love plot in the end of those dramas. But they all had feelings for ML and opted to be friends in the end and support the relationship of the mains.

Like I said it’s not even that deep as you all make it out to be. People can be friends with feelings as long as they never crossed the boundaries in the first place…they will get over it. If they did date, kiss and ect then different story.
What is everyone’s issue with SML? It wasn’t even that deep & the guy knew his boundaries even though he was in love…hard thing to let go without turning into a psycho. Would take this over the many evil second lead characters in most dramas.
Most of his dramas he has less screen times, but for this one i love how he got so much screen times and his character…
If you priotise romance just hold out till after the first 20 or so episodes on both Yanxi palace and Story of Minglan. Both of these are slow on this department but so worth it later on. Both are like hidden gems, it starts slow but the more you watch the more you will obsess although Minglan i would say is one of the best well written drama plot I’ve seen in any Asian or western dramas.. but slow beginning that can only be enjoyed after a re-watch. It has every topic and manage to make it look good from comedy to romance and even got me interested in war 😂

It’s really good…it’s in my top 3 alongside the drama- Story of Minglan and Nirvana in Fire. I highly appealed to smart leads in dramas. All are long dramas but worth the watch.
This copy-paste, convoluted trash just is too much. from appeasement of a class to delusions it goes pretty fast.…
Just had a looked at your watch list…you clearly got next to no taste so I won’t fault you for your weirdly exaggerated hate. There is dislike as well as negative criticism (both are fine) and then there is this. I would really like to go into details regarding copy-paste in the entertainment industry but I honestly can’t be bothered since you are clearly here to spread your hate
Can I also say that it’s really nice to have both leads written with non toxic backgrounds or family!! Especially from a ”Rich” ML….it wasn’t perfect but realistic and supportive nevertheless. Well done to the writers 👏🏼 OST was also good but the writers and Mains did it for me 💜
Holy shit... is the FL died at the last extra episode, where she's seeing the ML on the bicycle like how they…
Yeah this was what they ment. When in Germany after the breakup she asked him “is this what love is to you” He replied by saying something like love for him is growing and nurturing for many years together and something to look back to and enjoy during or after death.
He left first but he held on to the “forgiveness” card for her because she told him when their kids were young that she will never forgive him if he leaves first.
And in her passing right in the end she thought of him and having flash backs. In my interpretation at the end of the flashbacks where she is on the bike and he was in the car…that was him waiting for her after death & they finally reunite
Was never a fan nor a hater of Xu Kai. I’ve seen quite a few of his dramas and he was just there for me… but this one..yes this one he finally hooked me 😂 signed…sealed…delivered On the floor dragged and hooked lol

So yeah my point stands…
