I watch it season 2 before season 1. So I say No, but for better experience (in season 2, they didn't tell any backstory in season 1), I think watch season 1, before watch season 2 it's really good too.

I agree, and his change was too fast. The reason for his change was also to get back together with Xiu Ya. Quick changes tend to revert just as quickly. Once his goal is achieved, sooner or later, he will return to his original self.

That's right, such things often happen in real life. It's very sad because this drama portrays the issue too realistically. Until the end, not a single word of apology came out of the mother's mouth.

I’ve finished it. From the start, I knew that no action taken by parents comes without a reason. I’m Asian, and the culture portrayed in this drama resonates deeply with me, which is why it frustrates me even more. Just because it’s realistic and happens frequently there doesn’t mean it’s right, nor does it mean it should be normalized like that. If you're wrong, then you must apologize.

Xiu Ya's situation is not much different from Seok Ryu's in the kdrama Love Next Door. But at least, before Seok Ryu became successful, his mother was always by his side, always defending him. Seok Ryu's mother just didn’t want her child to go through what she had gone through. But not with Xiu Ya's mother. Xiu Ya's mother was nowhere to be found when Xiu Ya needed her. She refused to get wet when her child fell into trouble. But what is she doing now? Argh, I’m so angry about this episode.

I hope that at the ending, Xiu Ya can walk freely and smile of her own will.

Episode 21 really frustrated me. It reminded me of Na Hee Do's mother in the kdrama 2521. Without considering her child's reasons and feelings, she was busy criticizing and saying her child's choices were wrong. Xiu Ya's mother plays the victim so well that everyone, even Xiu Ya, can’t be angry at her. I'm really tired of characters like this. I'd rather see a truly evil mother like Chen Ting in Go Ahead than a mother who tries to seem good but is actually mentally bullying her own child.

Xiu Ya's mother crossed every line, projecting Xiu Ya as her investment. Her investment failed when Xiu Ya quit her job and broke up with Zheng Hao. She went crazy, feeling that all her sacrifices were in vain. She sacrificed until she was sick, but her investment failed. That's how Xiu Ya is seen through her mother's eyes. Xiu Ya's mother feels she’s always sacrificed for her, but in reality, she did it for herself. I wonder, if Xiu Ya had never joined a big company and never dated a successful person, would her mother still love her the same as before? Or would she treat her like trash, like in this episode?

I tried to understand things from the mother's side, as Xiao Lan told Xiu Ya, but no matter how much I think about it, I can’t tolerate it. Xiu Ya has always faced mental abuse: at home, at school, at work, even in her relationships. She could only heal mentally when she was with Bang He and dating Shi Ye. But again, her mental health is attacked when she’s burdened with her mother's illness.

I wonder, will Xiu Ya continue to be mentally attacked by everyone around her until the end and just normalize it, thinking everything is fine?

Usually, when watching an annoying character suddenly fall ill with a serious disease, I would feel pity and understand their actions. But Xiu Ya's mother is truly only thinking of herself. She didn’t tell her family and tried to gather beautiful memories just for herself. She crossed the line by calling Zheng Hao, even though when Xiu Ya was in school and her father scolded her harshly, her mother wouldn't cross the line and shut the door on Xiu Ya, causing Xiu Ya to lose herself for years.
Even now, she still does whatever she wants. But for a family, honesty is what matters most. You won't be remembered as a hero for pretending to be okay and leaving your loved ones without a word.

So embrassing, I can't watch it 🤣🤣

This drama is so funny, the plot is so quirky haha

Hahaha, I think you're right :'))
Actually, I'm just trying to review this drama objectively. Therefore, I'm trying to collect the details from this drama and provide input that can be developed so that this drama can be even better. I don't want the low rating I gave this drama to negatively affect other people's views of this drama. So I feel the need to provide comments that are as logical and objective as possible so as not to discredit the drama.
