A great start, hiccup, then it got back on track
Written after ep 2:
I like this drama bc it is more of a real thing - the real deal kdrama, like kdramas that made kdramas so popular globally - rather then some netflixed trash that resembles holywood and/or tries to kiss as$ of western $$$$. I understand wanting to make money however, if kdramas are too westernized, they will lose their appeal. Kdramas are the most sophisticated, most refined, most WARM storytelling out there, with character growth and positive messages. THat is what makes kdramas so awesome.
Let's make some amazing kdramas.
This drama is about normal people living normal lives
The story is interesting and it moves relatively fast
and there is character growth already in the first 2 episodes. That scared FL had to train so hard to get up and speak up. And she did it!!!!!! Bravo!
Yeah yeah yeah ppl say the cold dude ... but is he really.... ? There are plenty super warm and cuddly friendly scenes already - dont miss that.
I say, keep going, this looks like a new classic in the making.
Written after ep.5:
FRUSTRATION - the script took a U turn and made the ML a totally one-dimensional closed off mean person. All his good qualities GONE. So that is boring to watch. The actor is bad in acting mean scenes, and his grumpy face is unpleasant to watch non stop. Get him off :)
Written after ep 7:
I think something is wrong with the script, it is not moving fast enough, th explanations and the growth just do not happen
When that dude was missing for a month, he had plenty of time to self reflect.. but did he?? and we still don't know what he was thinking about and what bothers him
Written after ep 8:
OH IT IS BACK ON TRACK!!!! ML had to be hit hard and fast with karma to even start getting his life back on track...
So ML now again behaves as a normal human being, which is really interensting to watch because ML actor is EXCELLENT in acting complexities.
ANd the script took some severe twists where all kinds of revelations happened... so we are getting more insights on the characters.
FL is an amazing communicator, she honestly speaks her mind and that forces ML to speak his mind. Both of them are smart and have common sense, so the conversations are AMAZING.
The scenes in ep 9 them talking about using the office space, etc are JUST AMAZING
ML is an excellent actor and gets a lot of screen time full face on, because he CAN act long complicated complex scenes... he is really AMAZING actor, he makes it look real
and FL is a newbie but bc of him, her acting improved.
I respect FL. She is from a disfunctional family and poor, but she has common sense, she self reflects, and she keeps trying to make her life better. She is an honest person who communicates honestly.
Yeah she is a young woman and can be petty and annoying but she is entitled to be less than perfect. I personaly just wish that the FL actress stop puckering her lips to make herself look cute. It is NOT cute.
FL character is very strong and does not need those kinds of sillies.
Overall, I root for the FL as someone who is growing into a strong, honest, caring and successful woman.
====
The most scandalous thing to me are the comments from the audience!!! so many people belittle the FL as clingy, annoying etc and do not even comment on the ML who was a real douchebag, refused FL with some major doodoo lies, and prostituted himself in a contract marriage for $$$$. But people keep attacking the FL bc she insisted that ML give her an honest explanation for refusing her.
ML is a cold and calculated dude who opened his own company and since he needed employees fast, he hired FL without ever thinking if she is gonna like seeing him or not.
Nobody commented on THAT. But they commented on how annoying and clingy FL was bc she complained about his intrusion in her space after everything nasty he said to her to refuse her.
=========
My honest opinion is that ML loves FL a lot but does not know it.
His actions around her and he taking her for granted, that she will always be there and be nice, his relying on her, and his almost crying when she was crying, his jumping to help her...
are all signs he DEEPLY BELIEVES SHE IS HIS WOMAN
and so WHY he isnt admitting that to himself? WHAT IS THERE?
=========
Another great young actor coming up is ML's younger brother. That actor is very handsome and also acts his role with a great conviction and as-if-real, so I predict him a great acting career.
The villain cheabol mom is also great as a villain :)
