A preview on ep 9 (with spoiler) by a facebook account might give you some answers on the relationship between the fake couple (better just wait for episode 9). But ending unknown of course.

In fact you are totally on point here. When truths finally reviewed there will be huge confrontation betwen the fake husband and wife. Ha Ri is the only law abiding character here other than the apartment residents and she wouldn't stand any consman/gangster. So the path Hae Kang choose at the end very much determine if there is any future for the pair.

The drama shown multiple times in the early episodes the leads basically rushed into marriage (kind of love at first sight) without any indepth understanding of each other. So their relationship is not built on solid fundation. Also the ml is shown as more an action man than a communicating man. On top the drama used the usual romcom trope of 'protecting the others by not telling the truth' which is annoying.

Well said

No matters how many haters for this drama here, The Husband attracted so many online reviewers updating their recaps/reviews weekly right after new episodes are released, which is rare, and they are all excited by this drama without exception. For me most thriller type dramas, especially the 16 episodes ones, all became boring in the middle with the same plotlines dragged on and on, not this one.

I have been waiting for a long time for the confrontation with Lee Chung Won involving the most crucial witness, Ha Jeong and her sister, the fake wife Ha Ri. Once Ha Ri is involved Hae Gang has to take his stand, no choice (when relationship finally reviewed. So far he never upset her, not for a little bit). Now really looking forward to the coming episodes for this exciting plotline!

You are certainly correct for suffering of parents. But I was answering the one who posted regarding the fl.
Korea has one of the lowest birth rates in the worlds nowadays so in general any child is dear to them. So it might be different to some parts of the world.
I am not using exceptional cases for generalisation.

This recap on ep 10 will help
https://leisurebyte.com/the-husband-episode-10-review/

Other than the exciting thriller part of the drama, by episode 10, The Husband's key story is about the long hard unbearable journey for a couple who lost their dear only child (the pain would be totally unspeakable). The kidnapping in this drama actually provided them a turning point, giving them the chance to understand each other, and re-discovered their buried love and reconciliation at the end. Hope viewers watch this drama with a sympathetic heart rather than a judging one.

Any mother who suffered the loss of a child would have unbearable pain. Whatever emotion she displayed would be totally understandable. Episode 10 made that very clear and full sympathy always with the fl in this drama for me.

Tomorrow's episode might be mostly about ml chasing the kidnapper based on preview, not enough time to give us too many answers

Still where is the money?

Definitely so many questions still need anwsers. I am not sure of anything at all. I am waiting eagerly for tomorrow. Everything just kind of 'wish' for not necessary come true. I am no Sherlock Holmes.

I was in Soompi forums now no more.

All dramas you mentionted already watched long time ago except the lesbian ones. Still I preferred The Husband up to now with so many answers unknown yet. I don't know about the ending of course.

No dispute serving rich patients first over poor ones is wrong morally but I am referring 'clean' as legally, not breaking the law and subject to law punishments. And in the 1st episode everything is wrong between the 2 leads. But is characters growth part of dramas?
Remember in Hospital Playlist the leads are working in VIP ward for the riches! The hospital should have proper policies in handling different level of incomes patients. Here in Australia the private hospitals only serve those with private insurance (it is very expensive otherwise). The poor ones go to public hospitals. Same as in Hong Kong.

Then can you recommend any kdramas with thriller mysteries and background romace genres?

Episode 9 seems to be a stepping stone episode for tomorrow's crucial one(s) for lots more answers to be finally reviewed.
Yes at last the police made a major breakthrough exposing the psychologist Cha Myeong suspicious connection to Kim Gyeong Ae. She is one always trusted by Tae Ju and never suspected by him. And being a psychologist it will be interesting to see if she played any part in the drunk conversation between Tae Ju and the kidnapper. Now seems almost no clean ones in the hospital other than the 2 leads!

No drama is perfect. It is only for entertainment. But writing/plots bad? I really want to know why, how.

If you want to know how brilliant is the story writing, how detailed is the directing of this drama, read below the analysis of the 1st 4 episodes and the predictions. They all spot on now at episode 8 meaning all the hints laid on the drama are there for a purpose..
This writer of this article from dojeonmedia is brilliant as well.
