On Dec 20 instead of new episode a recap of episodes 1-7 will be shown...why???? like why????
The documentary about Han Kang will air on December 14. If they show two episodes on December 20 and 21, then only episode 12 will be aired exclusively in January. I believe they want to maintain an even number of episodes.
- The expressive male lead. When I started watching, I was afraid the character would behave like the original, but I was pleased to see that he showed various emotions and expressions. It made the overall viewing experience very enjoyable. - The family dynamic and the close, caring relationships among the characters. - The friendship between both male leads. They felt much closer to each other compared to the original series. - The HaeDal couple. I appreciated how they had their own storyline, which was quite different from the original. I just wished we could have seen more moments featuring HaeDal.
Things I disliked:
- Sanha's mother. I barely tolerated her and didn’t like that she was allowed to get away with her behavior towards Sanha. This is a typical K-drama issue—no confrontation at all. The male lead seemed like a doormat for his mother, begging until the end for his own happiness. - The female lead's character lacked development. Her acting felt repetitive throughout the series. - The chemistry between the main couple. They looked good together, but I didn't feel any connection while watching them. Perhaps it wasn't executed properly, and their relationship felt quite rushed as well.
Overall, despite its flaws, it's a good drama. You should give it a watch; I don't think you'll be disappointed.
It's been a long time since I eagerly waited for the weekend, but this drama has me counting down the days for the new episodes to air! Why are days passing by so slowly (sobbing)?
I didn't particularly enjoy Ju Won's acting as an adult. While I won't say it's terrible, I am not a big fan of her performance. For instance, when she has to portray being upset, it doesn't feel genuine to me; it doesn't come across as natural.
She said it herself that if he didn't get rid of Huiju soon, she will post the pics of his wife online and cook…
i didn't think in that context. basically, it's not the picture itself and more about the larger statement it makes-- emotional void and lack of intimacy in their marriage.
yep same..i just thought that maybe he hacked her phone or something, cause after that she took many pics of herself...idkk..…
could be, she took many before sending him one. but this scene didn’t make sense. Or maybe the scene could give a hint to ML that she is having an affair, which people around him are already speculating and he (later) would speculate.
One thing i couldn’t understand, why did she send him her thighs pics (and that to wearing those sexy lingerie)? There’s no way stalker/kidnapper would take it.
