So I liked the whole drama and I watched without FFing in any episodes or scenes. Yes there were boring moments and aggravating moments. I was expecting more based on the synopsis I was given. There were basically two stories going on in this drama (Hae Jin's life and back story; and Sang Eun's job and relationships), everything else was just extra.

I don't think this was PMY's best work by a long shot, but I will probably rewatch it at some point. I am a happy ending type of person, so this was a good one for me.

I wonder if I would rate and review this differently if I binge watched vs watching as each episode aired. I usually feel differently about things when I binge, because I see it all at once and it seems to make sense vs putting it all together each week.

I think the biggest overall negative I have about this drama is the 180 they did with almost every character in it. It's like a short span of time, every character changed their persona and became different to fast imo, but oh well, it is drama and fiction. The acting was really great, the story had a good basis, but I felt it got off track to many times. Overall, it was good.

No and no

agree

I do want to add, I have to agree about the break up. I thought part was dumb, there was no reason for them to have them "break up". I mean I saw it coming, there were so many hints, but at the same time there was absolutely no reason for them to write that in there. But this is a KDrama, they have to do that don't they, it is their trope, can't have a KDrama without a break up before getting back together at the end.

I actually liked this episode, I thought the emotions and the reveals and story was actually pretty good and I agree about your above comment. That is the second time people predicted things that I myself thought could be a possibility but never imagined the writers would actually do it that way and I would never have assumed it would be done.

I loved that scene.

if you have a Viki subscription you can watch it there. I am not sure where else, as I only watch dramas on subscription sites. You could try kissasian or dramacool. I am not real familiar with those sites though, just have seen them mentioned.

I was so hoping that wouldn't happen, but I had a feeling when she took all the tags off his clothes. I knew she was up to something. I honestly thought she would have left the country with Gwang Nam, until I saw the previews.

I was crying with Ji Ho, so emotional, until I saw the previews. Such emotion Go Kyung Pyo brings to the Ji Ho character. I absolutely love his character. This episode was really good. I liked it a lot. I do still wonder though, who is her father, they haven't really come out and officially said it, but there is a lot of insinuation. Also, with the things that happened with Hae Jin's brother, wondering if Yoo Min Ho actually needs to turn herself in, unless she still wants to take down Eena Group.

A third of the way in, and I thought Hae Jin was bad. His brother is a 100xs worse. Now back to watching....

so true

that is exactly the reason why I never thought Sang Eun could be her biological daughter, I am a bit disappointed they wrote the story that way

I agree, if they make him end up with the ex wife, imo it would be ridiculous. Not to say, way way down the line they couldn't be together, but to put them in a relationship right now would be forcing a relationship for a everyone is happy ending, when he still clearly has misguided feelings for Sang Eun.

I don't know, it seems pretty much up in the air, there was no real definitive answer. Ji Ho said to Madam Yoo, " I know the person you were with at the time is Sang Eun's biological father" That is pretty much it. They did talk about the Eena group head right before saying that so it almost implies that he is, but ..... I still feel we might be missing something.

I loved that scene, almost every scene he is in, he steals it. The writers really outdid themselves when making his scenes, cause I absolutely love them all.

I thought it looked familiar.

yeah they basically just have to finish up the whole Eena Group and Kangjin Group story, which is boring anyway. But if they had of left that whole part out it definitely could have been a 12 episode drama.

SangEun finally answered the question that most of us thought we knew the answer to...
--Why did she send money to Yoo Mi Ho for 13 years? because she was worried about her (I think deep down Madam Yoo is the only "mother like" figure Sang Eun had in her life. The person that took care of her, raised her, etc. albeit in a very strict, "project" like, and self-motivational way.)

--Jung Ji Ho, you are the absolute cutest, sweetest, sincerest, honest person in this whole drama and the things he does to make Sang Eun happy and not to feel any discontent are so adorable.

--Honestly in this episode every part with the chaebols and Hae Jin were so boring and mediocre. It is like they totally dulled down Hae Jin's character 100% from how he was and as much as I didn't like him before at least he had some feelings and emotions, it's like they turned him into an emotionless robot all the sudden.

--Gwang Nam you can't leave, you are one of the few best things about this drama. I mean come on who didn't like the "sex ed" talk. Don't get me wrong I love all the parts with JJH and CSE, but nothing beats when Gwang Nam comes into the picture to give lessons on : how to recycle, fold towels, put away laundry, and sex (my favorite part).

--Last episode and this one, they actually haven't left the episodes on these huge cliff hangers. I hated when they did that, but at the same time loved it.

Now to go searching for the previews for next week, because once again Viki didn't have them.

This is the first time I haven't read others' comments first before I started posting. So my thoughts on episode 14. In all honesty, I thought this was a pretty mellow episode, not much really exciting happened, although there were a lot of really cutesy moments. posting a few spoilers below....

Love your synopsis concerning Hae Jin. I love reading everyone's thoughts and views and seeing things I never thought to look at before. I went into this drama just wanting a good cutesy rom com (which usually is what PMY delivers), but enjoying all the ups and downs and emotional roller-coasters of these characters.
