A toxic love story

As a non-novel reader, this drama was pretty good, actually. I only saw a few spoilers for the novel from time to time. I did like the casting, especially the main characters, who did an amazing job portraying their characters.

Their relationship is toxic at many points. Him not knowing how to express his feelings and speak nicely was a very big red flag to me. Like, if your boyfriend speaks to you like this, please leave 😭. He did love her, but he didn’t love her correctly or respect her enough, in my opinion, during the 6 YEARS OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP.

As for Flora, she was honestly sometimes stupid in her actions and in the way she viewed their relationship, which she sometimes didn’t acknowledge enough in certain situations. But she was so blinded by love and their intimacy together that she stayed for 6 years despite the lack of trust and sweetness in his words.

They both had their flaws, as they are human, so it was realistic to some extent, but also very frustrating. Like, I was so happy when they broke up and she didn’t hold back her words because, honestly, she needed to say those things.

As a woman, dating your superior is never in your favor because, in the end, she was the one who lost her promotion that she had worked so hard for over 6 years. So I was really happy that she chose herself, her career, and her self-respect.

What I found rushed was the ending, since we only had 24 episodes instead of 34. That means many things should have been explained and deserved more screen time. Like how much time he spent courting her again in Harbin, and more of their relationship, showing him pursuing her and making efforts for her. Because we didn’t get much of that, and there were also other side plots, like Lumi’s love life and others, that deserved a little more attention.

But the wedding proposal was kind of cute because, at that moment, he told her all the words and apologies that she deserved to hear, during the proposal and even before.All their memories together and the necklace of the missing letter from the typewriter.Like him admitting that he didn’t speak nicely to her and even that he fell in love with her first but didn’t cherish her enough. But even that it’s crazy it’s took him 8/9 years to be able to say those words and speak nicely. Also it was rushed bc they broke up and 3 episode of him pursing her and 1/2 of episode of them back together and engaged ?? We deserved more episodes so that the ending wasn’t rushed and the period of getting back should have been longer since their relationship needed many things to evolve.

One of the major reasons why I didn’t give it a 9/10 is because the timeline in the drama is so poorly explained. Like, the years of their relationship go from 4 to 6 in one episode, and there are so many other things that didn’t make sense, making it hard to understand the timeline.

I wish they had explained the timeline better and hadn’t rushed the ending. It was kind of rushed.

But overall, it was good and exciting to watch!!✨. But in real life never get into this type of relationship please 😩

Our beloved team 1

I just love this drama so much, from the plot, the cases, the casting, and the acting. At first, I was very sad not to have our female lead from season 1, but I’m happy I gave it a chance because the actress for season 2 did an amazing job. I really love the found family trope with our beautiful team 1 and team 2 as well. I love the dynamic and everything else; I also liked the chemistry between Isoo and Jo Hyera, as it was cute to watch. But I have to say, I still want him to end up with the team leader from season 1, because I liked their chemistry better and I felt like Isoo really had feelings for her in a way. With Jo Hyera, it feels more like a beautiful platonic relationship bond rather than a romantic one. So I really hope that if we have a season 3, they bring Gang Hyeon back; I missed her a little in this season. But the actress who plays Jo Hyera did an amazing job, and I really love her character too, so if we have a season 3, please let us have the two of them: Gang Hyeon and Jo Hyera. Another relationship that is very dear to me is between Isoo and Mr. Choi—I love the father-son bond, and I'm happy Mr. Choi seems to have a love interest. And of course, the relationship between Isoo and the two other men, Jun Yeong and Gyeong Jin; they are such brothers and I love to see them together. As much as I would like for romance to happen btw him and gang hyeon ( the team leader from season1) I think it’s also okay if we don’t have isoo in a relationship like the dynamism of the drama is still good with those small romance scene or tension. FINALLY, the new villain at the end: I’m so excited to see why he is so angry towards Isoo and team 1. PLEASE, I HOPE WE WILL HAVE SEASON 3! And by the way the psychopath this season the actor did an incredible job portraying him like I was so disgusted and angry at his character, he did really week the craziness of the serial killer.
