I was rooting for him to live. That made me so sad. Especially, that he had to call Vincenzo over to him while he's dying and she only got shot in the shoulder.

"Ci" makes the 'ch' sound in Italian. For example, ciabatta. Vincenzo is the Italian equivalent of Vincent. Don't ask me more because I lost most of my Italian, lol.

Wow! It wasn't until I read your comment that I realized that was the last episode of the "season". That's grade A bs! That wasn't even a seaaon finale.

Are you starting to look at your spouse sideways? lol

I've been watching Kdramas for about 7yrs and I've been to Korea 3x. I'm very familiar with the various types of dramas and the culture. Korean audiences in general like a wide range of content and a good number of them don't watch dramas at all. None of my friends there watch dramas. Same goes for most of their other friends. I asked before.

When I'm in Korea watching TV, it's amazing how little I see dramas come on given how much dramas are airing one given time. What most Koreans like to watch, most of the Western audiences that watch Kdrama and variety shows would find boring, lol. Having a VPN to access sites with English subtitles for on-demand dramas is a must.

I don't feel this particular drama qualifies as a makjang. Makjang is over-the-top and often times extremely contrived. The word is a type of slang term referring to being "extreme". This drama is far from that. If anything, it's the opposite. It's very on-the-nose regarding how cheating typically manifests. One situation from ep, 9 had me feeling some type of way cause it was so similar to what I could've been caught up in if I didn't have morals.

I was like... when will this end?!?!?!? LOL Like girl, get a therapist with some of all that money you got.

I agree. I wanted to drop it at the 3rd episode cause I felt like they talk entirely too much, but it's really that other shows don't show enough actual dialogue. In real life. we talk to each other for much longer than scenes typically show. Especially, if we're upset. And I was annoyed with how much they repeat themselves, but that's more like real life, too. We always connect "drama" in our lives with yelling, fighting, and things breaking, when in reality it mostly happens in a much more quite and drawn out manner.

I thought the same thing when they showed them at the table. I think they all are just that since I see no other reason for their presence. We never see them interact with the main characters at all.

The more I watch of season 1, I just can't understand why there would be a season 2. I doubt there are few married people watching this that have not started questioning their own marriage now. It's because it's too close to realistic situations. Not the dramatic blow-up and passion being flung around.

Her and Lee Jae Wook would burn up everything with the level of on-screen chemistry I imagine they would have. I'd need to keep a fan nearby.

I can agree that there are iconic scenes. It was once playing in some store and I knew what show it was after just seeing 10 seconds of it. However, I have never once had any shadow of a tiny drop of desire to rewatch, lol. Never.

Thank you! :-)

Yay! I just commented that I can sing that song. The whole thing.

It would be "Hurt" by Ali cause I learned it and can actually sing it in Korean (have impressed native speakers). :-D

Yes, the song played in my head as soon as I saw the cover and read the title. It's the same with Sky Castle, Goblin, and Rooftop Prince, to name a few.

I fully support your dropping. Episode 2 had some gaping plot holes already. If the foolery is still afoot in ep 3, I'm dropping myself.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I saw that in the genre list for this show on Viki and came here to check if it was the same here. If it's not between the leads (which would be ewwww), then it shouldn't be called romance at all.

LoL, I call this drama "Love is the Moment" by mistake often.

lol, thanks
