The maturity went out of the window for the sake of creating drama

From the very beginning I had this feeling they were trying to copy the plot of lost kdrama 2021 and make it more of a DRAMA rather than the originally intended melodrama it was.
And I think my point still stands. Featuring a female lead that has lost the spark in both life and her creative work and is stuck in an unhappy relationship built on responsibility and not on love.
Lost also had themes of depression and infidelity and handled them with grace.
The key is that it focused on the internal struggles of the female lead and not to darg them but to actually make sense of them and the struggles of fixing them. This drama completely brushes off the suicide attempts of the fl, her loss of creative life as a director, even her family problems and instead makes an stupid third story on how her dad died for the ml and shifts the entire focus on the ridiculously unrealistic overdramatic main relationship which was dragged till the very end thanks to billions of different childhood misery stories and not on actual adult relationship problems.
This way it also destroyed the sml and fl relationship which could be something much more healing and mature. Unlike lost we don't have an interesting sfl so the ml and sfl relationship was just two boring and uncharismatic people who don't actually challenge the stablished problems of the ml. Why ? Because he has to be some saint in the director's eyes despite being so childish and lacking accountability which were never addressed.
I love a complex frustrated charismatic female lead and at first mido gave me the impression that she was going to be one but the strory betrayed her struggles, her character EVEN IN HER SECOND RELATIONSHIP, where she was AGAIN not the saved one but a saviour for the entire time. I was so excited to see how they are going to bring back her creativity back, how she is going to find who she is apart from being her boyfriend's saviour and how her life is going to change through that. Even her family dynamics but nope.
Anyway go watch lost and don't waste your time
