I’m actually a little surprised, I thought more people would not like the wife.

I agree!! It makes me glad that there are people watching this drama who have similar thoughts on that matter.

I’m so waiting for their interactions!!!😆

I totally understand. I don’t think that she’s a bad person, but she’s definitely flawed and not doing very good right now. She’s real.
But I cannot like her, I think I feel too violated by her behavior at times (in the name of the characters on the receiving end) to like her. But that’s just what happens when you get immersed in a drama, I guess. I get really involved with the characters. 😂

It’s bound to happen, the rating will be changing as more and more episodes are being released

Oh I feel it too! His reasons and behavior make him like a comedic character, a caricature of certain behavior. But the rest of the drama is set in a much more serious tone , the situations are more dramatic and dealing with more real issues.
His scenes felt out of place, and it’s harder to take everything else as seriously, because his reasoning is presented in such way.

Yeah.
Her behavior towards her own son isn't okay either.
From what I've seen in those two episodes, he doesn't seems to want thst factory at all (which is understandable, no matter how you look at it) and he seems overwhelmed with her protectiveness and the way she plans out everything for him, at times. She seems to be so hell bent on "fixing things" and having everything under control, she doesn't notice the negative effect of her behavior.
I think I understand why she is behaving like that. I don't think that she's a bad person, but that doesn't mean what she's doing right now is good.

Her ex bf? Who’s her ex bf?

both of the Jin Us are treated more like pieces of puzzle that the adults around them are trying to put together, each person in a different way, than actual teenagers… ( as of ep2) I hope the situation improves, and each character will grow

Oh, if it doesn’t I’m going to be REALLY mad

I’m not sure. But maybe for this role they needed the character to be really good at singing, and Ryeoun just didn’t have enough training to do that here. I mean, he did well in TW but he’s not a professional singer.

When it comes to his career, yeah I agree that he’s a mess. And he’s blaming her for too long for what happened in the past. But when it comes to taking care of their son’s matters, after watching ep2 I feel like he’s the sane one. I don’t think that the FL is behaving like this on purpose, but she’s being a bad mother, worse than he’s being a father.

Yeah that’s why I can’t like her rn. I know that she’s probably feeling guilty about the past, wants everything to be as perfect as it can be for her son and wants to provide a good future. But she became a controlling and kinda manipulative mother because of that. She’s hell bent on “fixing things” but not everything is fixable, sometimes you have manage despite it and make something out of your new situation (she seems to get that when it comes to work but not her private life). I can totally understand her behavior and I don’t think she is a bad person, she just behaves “badly” thinking she’s doing the right thing.
I get where she’s coming from but probably because I feel like I’d have made similar mistakes, I find it hard to excuse her behavior.
(Not to say that the husband is much better, but he seems more sane when it comes to their son’s situation, and family)

I’m so glad you made these comments! thanks, and I agree.

And from the next episode’s preview I see that it is going to get even more intense.
Uh, the only thing that’s lifting up my mood right now is the Doyoung OST, it’s good.

Okay, after ep2… Why do I feel kinda satisfied that Jun Seok just burst out in anger in front of her like that, and told her what was on his mind?
I don’t think that what he is accusing her of is really her fault, naturally. But the obsession with the factory really seems to be a problem, and is actually doing more bad than good (as of what I’ve seen so far) for her and her family.
So I’m actually glad that he brought that up.
I’m not saying that their problems, fallouts and their lives breaking apart (in a sense) make me happy etc, but when a character brings up something that has been on my mind as well, it makes me feel kinda good (I guess it’s pretty obvious and natural).
Anyway, this drama is more dramatic that it looks, I didn’t expect that.

Oh, my… their family situation is so messed up. Why do I feel like 12 episodes is a bit short to tell this story while making it seem sincere?

After watching the first episode, it seems okay and I’m interested in the story but some of female lead’s behaviour angers me so much, oh my god… I don’t think that she is a bad person, and she’s probably just trying to protect her son and care for him, but without realising it she became a controlling and kinda manipulative mother.
I think she just wants to “be there for him” but she’s “been there” kinda too much.
I see and understand why she is behaving like that, but I still cannot like her.

And she has weird solutions to some of the problems her family faces…

Anyway, I’ll see how it goes in episode 2.

Thank you

I’m confused, we’re there bad rumors about him? I know that he divorced his previous wife (an actress) and they weren’t on good terms afterwards, but that’s pretty normal? I mean it’s not a nice situation, but divorces happen and majority of people want to distance themselves from their ex-partners afterwards, so I don’t get why there would be a lot of backlash…
Sorry for asking, you don’t have to tell me in much details, I don’t want to stir drama again, but I just don’t remember any scandals about him/them at all…
