This is temporary and I will make a full review of the show after I finish it, but as of ep 12 I am so angry with this dip in writing that I think I need to rant to cool off before I permanently drop the show. What the fuck is this dumbass Yu-ra plot?!?!??!?!?! Can we please stop using this old trope of "ex lover comes to town and causes dumbass misunderstandings that are greatly exaggerated for the sake of senseless drama!" because it is reallylllylyly getting old. I never really understood the rage others had of this trope until now. I just saw it in all of its glory and I feel like my blood vessels are about to burst. Why the fuck is Ji-won suddenly treating Ji-hyuk like some scumbag??? He didn't even do anything wrong. WTF. This guy ended things with this girl he was put into an ARRANGED MARRIAGE WHEN THEY WERE LITERAL CHILDREN with. Dear god he ended the engagement before he started even officially dating Ji-won, so why is she treating him like he is a cheater? Like, do not compare him to Min-hwan lmao. Then she has the audacity to say she can't be with him because the annulment of the engagement wasn't mutual.........what.......? Does someone need mutual consent to end a relationship? This isn't the 1800s........stop acting like he is some monster for ending a relationship HE ADMITTED HE WAS NOT HAPPY WITH IN THE PAST LIFE!!!!! Does he need to be abused like you were by your husband for it to be justified????? So fucking stupid. Then this bitch Yu-ra is, surprise (!), a raging bitch! Because we can't write female villains without them being stereotypes and haters of other womens' happiness!!!!! (kill me) This plot is so fucking stupid I swear if they paint it like Ji-hyuk needs to apologize in the following episodes and that Yu-ra is somehow a victim I am going to front flip into a ravine. Also I'm pretty sure this wasn't even a plot in the webtoon, so like wtf is it even added in for? Could they not think of a replacement to fill time OTHER than this dogwater?!??!! And here I was praising the show for being leagues better than the webtoon too......they better redeem this story or this plotline will tank my entire perception of the rest of it by association........
