This is hot garbage and the FL made me want to rip her hair out
I'm not normally one to drop a kdrama, but this show had it coming. What a terrible FL. I don't know if I've come across a more poorly written FL. She is the epitome of selfishness. Her needs must be met, and no one else's. They try to play her off as sympathetic and caring, but then show us how she constantly drops everything, and everyone, to chase down some killer all because she failed in the past. I get that losing her sister is absolutely terrible, and the weight of that guilt would be almost immeasurable, but if she's still gonna live in the world and be useful, she shouldn't take advantage of everyone around her to get through it.
They show the ML going through so much because of his sick mother, but they don't show it like it really matters. It's a side note in the plot and not as important as anything going on with the FL. When the FL finds out, she's not even that upset or sad. It's still about her. She gets him suspended from his work for 3 months, knowing he's struggling financially, and she just steels herself and decides that's for the best since she's got someone to catch. Her lack of empathy is astounding. I'm disgusted by the writing of a "strong female lead" that's really just an absolute jerk that only thinks of herself and is arrogant enough to believe she can do things on her own.
The fact she hides everything she's doing and all the insubordinate actions she's making from the ML really grosses me out. She never leans on him and acts like she can do everything herself, but then she's actually incapable of doing that. This is a sad excuse for a kdrama, and it's definitely not up to the standard that I watch. I wanted to stomp this woman out lol. That's how much I can't stand her. The writers did a terrible job with this one. I'll have to see who they are and never watch anything else they work on.
All that aside, the ML had an interesting backstory and the emotions shown by KSH were great. I watched the show for this long for his character and acting. I just couldn't keep it up anymore, especially after he goes running back to her after all she's done to harm him and his career, with no remorse I might add. Have some self-respect, honestly. Anyways, unless you enjoy leads, where one runs all over the other, this one may not be for you. Ugh! What a waste of my time
