Well it would make a normal makjang plot. I am currently eeked out at another drama where I can't work out the ML's relationship with his ex and there's a kid involved. Hard to ship him with the FL.

Huh?

All I thought was that the FL's fiance cheated on her. The male lead was stood up.

Its a revenge drama and a contract marriage.

End. None of this sex here and there in a 10 minute drama. Also in real life affairs do happen amongst people who are related to each other and their partners cheat.

Oh dear.

Thank you.

Its ep 30 tonight so guess its for Friday.

At least it will be solved by next week.

I can't open it. What happened in the preview?

Ok ep 29 was funny. I rewatched the parents scenes 3 times. Plus Wu Jun. Lol.

I haven't watched and will wait for next weekend. However which minute is it in ep 35 please?

This drama is better when I watch multiple episodes.

Thank you for the recommendation. I am on episode 2 already. Its quirky I like it. I am not even complaining about romance. I am just happy with a drama that flows naturally although I can't believe the actor is only 21.

Whoa he is an amazing party pooper. The very loud " Cheng Yao " made me laugh.

Thanks. Just found it. Will give it a go.

I know. That's why its a bit jarring to see serious issues for a run of the mill drama.

I am not that much of a dreamer but these are serious issues that the writer probably read and used. However the true talent is making or writing good well fleshed characters. Which is a bit iffy here.

A legal drama will have dealt with these sort of issues. However tbis drama doesn't provide a proper solution for these issues.

Episode 25. Cheng Yao is doing Legal Aid. I didn't do it under spoilers as everyone is ignoring the plot because of the main couple .

My comment is because the writer is writing particularly terrible situations for sunglw mothers.

Geez who is the writer? Do they have something against single mothers?

Episode 25's mother was so pitiful. I know its fictional but now we have non- consentual sex and she is now saddled with a sick child? Her husband divorced her and the biological father of the child who might as well be charged with rape is contesting her in court.

I mean we do have the single mother of twins earlier on.

Then the sister who has a physically aggressive ex- husband.

The writer is kinda worrying.

Hahaha. I laughed so hard. Thats because I was looking a local Korean hotel booking site and I am looking at love hotels. And then all those host and hostess bars.

You mean the writers are delusional instead

I've watched the Jung Hae-in one by the way and couldn't stand the female lead.

So yes I prefer the China version. Different people like different characters or actors. I happen to speak both Korean and Mandarin and actually don't need subs so its not as if I took my eyes off screen. I like the screen tone for this drama.

Nooooo... for some reason I thought its 26. Dammit. That means there is going to be studpid angst since the plot is idiotic. I mean the legal cases are terrible and the character developments are terrible. And the legal subs are so far behind.

12 more days. Geez. Fine fine. I am going to do some work stuff then. The romance part here so far is so cringy.

You have a tall strapping male legal student who's rich and clever. He would have been arrogant and aloof in university.

This is about the only theory I can hypothesise why we have the only male who went through puberty and did NOT have a crush in college. Were the females that unattractive to him?

The conclusion for ep 23 and 24 are that the actors are good actors otherwise the scenes would have been TERRIBLE to watch. The cringe factor was up through the roof.

That pizza scene. Omg. That was a
grown man right?

Was that original crust? Its very floppy. I don't usually buy from Pizza Hut and we like a thin crust? All I could see was a limp pizza and so much carbs. Doesn't he normally like healthy food?

You guys mentioned that the writer is female. Have you all seen the dishes she has been cooking.If you come home at 6pm after a long day of work then have to cook 4-6 dishes daily. Plus supper? Which century is the writer living in? At least it was proper dishes not those meat skewers we see in so many dramas.

Only 2 more episodes to go. I will watch the subbed episodes as it comes out but 2 episodes of romance is not going to bode well for any one of us who waited for an office drama and watched 22 episodes of him being obnoxious.

Yes she will be cooking. Even if they live in that super big house. Pity that so many dramas as so idiotic in China and everyone wants a super rich man story.

I don't even fight about women's rights normally. And considering how tired I am this morning with work and kids I would also love the option of being a full time housewife. A rich housewife who can hire twice weekly cleaners. A gardener. Plus a chauffeur then an actual cook since I would prefer them to just cook
under supervision. I can take that
sort of housewife.

So back to the acting. This drama is saved by the excellent acting from everyone. I love the other 3 lawyers and I just saw the female lawyer in Love me, love my voice? Then the actress was in another 2 other dramas I watched. Cheng Xi- the actress who plays the sister.

All I could say was that Qian Heng being like this was cringy. There is or has been a big boss being in love dramas all the time but he being her direct supervisor just makes for a poor outcome for her career- wise. So the big splashy wedding scenes in those office romance dramas just won't work for this drama. And I like romance dramas because I like a believable HAE.

The actors were and are very good. I like the way Cheng Yao smiles. I spent like 22 episodes thinking she was just so dense but when the actress smiles in ep 24 it makes me think its the role that was bad. I will go look for a drama where she has a better role. I am obviously going to warch The Interpreter now to get rid of the arrogant Qian Heng being brought low being in love instead of being adorable now that he is in love.

I didn't mind the other partner. So yeah overall I really like the acting from the actors here and am going to search for their other dramas instead. I am going back to ep 10 now. To watch what happened to the pregnant mistress. I wasn't paying attention when I watched it raw last week.
After this I really REALLY NEED to watch something completely different from this drama. I usually have something followed on planned but this time I might even go off office romance drama because I would pick a good drama now vs a bad drama just because I like the synopsis.

Is there any recent good high school to college romance around you guys can recommend? That's the level those 2 are at and I want to watch a good age appropriate romance. If 2 adults can be that dense then I'd rather watch a good college romance. Thank you.

I just want to say that I am thrilled ep 23-24 came out tonight.

I am currently on episode 10 the official subs. I think its up to ep 14 only.

There is also zero flirting for 22 episodes.

Slow burn can mean simmering emotions, unexpressed feelings. Reasons why the leads did not confess out loud. Unspoken words of longing expressed in their expressions.

The discussion with the BFF this episode 22 was that the male lead was too good for her to think that way. There was no inkling with words or longing that she was attracted to the male lead.

The male lead is attracted yes. And has been for
episodes. The female lead on
the other hand has never expressed any interest in any form. Does she even want to be with him? All she has been saying is that he is too good for her to even consider. The fake story to her parents is also so flimsy and lame.

So its as she wants permission from the male lead to like him. A slow burn romance shouldn't have a female character not be irresistibly pulled by the male lead.


Now Cheng Xi on the other is more the slow burn romance. The guy is longing. The girl is interested but is doing the Noble Idiocy role.

So come episode 23- how can I buy her romance if she is suddenly lovey dovey towards the male lead. And being intimate all the time.

Its only 505 ppl who rated. Some dramas have thousands.

Additional- have seen the preview for ep 23. Wow she went from indifference to burning interest. Wow. And huh?
