Heartbreaking Karma
I really like Zhao Zhen Dong, so I hated seeing him as a cheater, BUT this was a VERY good drama with a well-done NON-rushed ending. I USUALLY only watch 'happily ever after' stories and try to skip over any dramas with tragic endings. HOWEVER... THIS drama is a rare life-lesson gem about sowing and reaping (NOT revenge). Its definitely sad but its ALSO satisfying BECAUSE karmic justice is actually served completely, fairly and with perfect pacing. Its the FIRST vertical drama I have EVER felt was worthy of 9☆'s. Even though it is a heartbreaking story, I didn't ever feel moved to actual tears until the very end when the ML told the lab tech that he would give them 100% of his wealth to make sure the experiment succeeded that his wife gave up her life for. That was when it felt like he'd accepted the consequences. Also, I was glad the writers allowed him to secretly see his wife again without him actually reintroducing himself to her. Seeing him when she woke up would have been insulting and disrespectful after all she'd been through because of him. He KNEW she didn't deserve that.
