Wish there were more dramas like this one.
The last episode just felt like someone else took over the writing of this drama. BUT, I loved it as a whole and wish there were more dramas like this one. The characters were mature and fit their roles. I loved the sign language aspect. Hated the bullying, especially by the Mom's. Why are Korean drama Moms so not worthy of the title "Mom"?Was this review helpful to you?
Frustrating
I know I'm in the minority with my opinion, but the FL character constantly frustrated me. While the chemistry between the the ML and FL was off the charts....the lies, break ups, make ups, but really the lies! Did it in for me. First! How could a woman, who trained so hard to defeat every male contestant she came up against for 7 years really have the fortitude and spin of a jelly fish? Honestly. At every turn I kept hoping she was going to find that part of her that was honorable and trained to be the best. She failed, over and over again! Seriously! The lies! Just lying to lie??? Because she was afraid? She wasn't afraid to face the toughest competitors in a million different realms, but hiding her identity made her be a lying childlike whimp? I'm still mad about it. And the consequences of those lies were devestating. SMDH. I really wanted this to be amazing, but after watching LTHFG and PoB, this one missed the high marks for drama of the year.Was this review helpful to you?

Annoying
I loved most of the men in this drama as Single men. Not one of their partners deserved the level of angst, attention or misunderstandings they were often accused of having. In the end, this drama would have been better had none of them ended up with any of the females in this drama. In the age of adults, sadly few of them actually showed up to act like adults.Was this review helpful to you?
Slow with Moments
I waited for this drama to be complete before I watched it and avoided reading reviews. Honestly, the first few episodes were difficult to get through and I stopped watching out of sheer boredom. By espisode 5, it started to pick up a little, though the rhyme and reason of the drama still escaped me. Truly, if you're looking for excitement, you're not going to find it here. If you want an easy watch, with head scratching moments, a little comedy and deep, sometimes rambling to no where conversations....you'll love this drama. I won't rewatch it, but some of the moments will linger. Not in my top 10 in 2025.Was this review helpful to you?

FL is NOT my favorite
By episode 21 I truly hated the FL. What a sanctimonious b*tch. She's mad that he lied about cheating, but it was ok for her to lie about being married. She holds onto a grudge as if it was going to save her pathic life. I'm just mad they ended up together.The ML needed someone so much better. Usually it's the Mother in Cdramas I dislike. One of my favorite dramas is Lighter & Princess and most everything with Arthur Chen. After the chemistry of Chen and Zhang this was a total miss.

Suprised
I'm older, so I tend to like more mature dramas. When I got Disney+ I saw this and decided to give it a try. I loved it, with only one exception. It made me laugh out loud more than once. It made me tear up more than once. It did not disappoint. I wish they had not killed off one them in the manner they did. I just felt like his dying added zero value to the drama and was completely unnecessary. But, aside from that, I would highly recommend this drama.Was this review helpful to you?
FL acts like a whiney child
I watch most of this with subtitles because I couldn't get past the whiney voice of the FL. The 2FL would have been better as the FL. I was really looking forward to this drama because of the ML, but seriously, he had to be wearing earplugs during the filming. Just cringy. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone without a hearing impairment.Was this review helpful to you?
