Personally I didn’t find the romance in it. How do you propose marriage to one woman and after meeting her married sister a few times you end up having sex. How do you not only cheat on your husband but you can’t keep your hands off your sisters fiancé. Ok you are lonely but what about talking to your husband about your despair. Also how do you just leave your child to flee to another country with your sisters now ex fiancé. I guess I just don’t understand the Korean culture. People said it had a happy ending. Not in my book.

A Man and a Woman kdrama

He is such a wimp and a fake. I hope his wife kicks his sorry butt to the curb. I just hate to see he and his mistress finding happiness at the expense of his wife. But what do they care?

I don’t believe a word he says. He’s a poor excuse of a man. I stopped watching. Can’t stand seeing he and his mistress fawning all over each other.

I agree...marriage is work and requires tolerance and a whole lot of patience..so sorry to hear about your husband. Take care

The writer lost me at ep 8....it seems like she’s saying it doesn’t matter what a wife does or doesn’t do husbands cheat and there’s always women out there whether they are young or old who knowingly get involved with married men. So being a wife is a lost cause.

Seems like Sung Hoon and the actress playing his mistress are very popular in Korea and the reason ratings are good.

I agree...I just want all three wives to come out wiser and stronger...

Yes I feel it has all been one dimensional. I was listening to some people talk about someone recently and some of their comments were not nice. Then it hit me that they were looking at the person through a very small window . That’s how I feel about the lawyers
wife. She had to be under a lot of stress to develop an ulcer. A divorce may be best for her health.

Lol..you are so right...the one who took my cousins husband was boohooing six months after they got married. He did the same thing to her !

Or they all come face to face!

Interesting analysis...my husband and I were together 50 years..lol..we would always tell people we were two imperfect people who were perfectly fit for each other. There was a singer who had a popular song 50/50. I disagreed with the premise. If each of you is only giving 50% you may be in for some problems. The reality is sometimes one is giving 120% and the other may be giving only 50%. You may want to go left and the other one may want to go right. Now that’s when someone becomes vulnerable and believe me there’s always someone waiting in the background. That’s when the real work starts. Lol...which one is willing to go the distance....Now I’m going to bring in a third participant...in our case it was our core values and beliefs(God) which determined that nobody or nothing could break the bond we had. This series has been one dimensional in my view. There was so much more that could have been explored. Sorry for being so lengthy. Take care.

I think people kept watching waiting for that pivotal moment when the wives would take center stage ....never happened...thinking ep 16 will end with the drs wife finding out .....clifffhanger?

I agree...looking for a cliffhanger to get people to season 2...maybe they will announce date of 2 nd season

Sorry I just can’t get with Song Won. I suffered with fertility also...had 2 miscarriages and a stillborn. I understand her personal pain. It is terrible her husband left her. Mine didn’t. But that still does not justify her getting involved with a married man. I just have no tolerance for women who are that thirsty for a man. Take care.

I think they underestimated the intelligence of the viewer. I think most of us already knew that all mistresses are not bad people. So they could have saved all the flashback episodes...2 episodes would have been enough. And they really put in a lot of effort to contrast the mistresses with the wives. Again were these extremes necessary? I guess so if you want to put a good face on cheating and infidelity. I really think they could have wrapped this up in one season. Instead of 16 ep they could have had 25. Almost feels like they were waiting to see how the viewers react to the focus on the husbands and their mistresses.

I do respect your opinion and I agree we all need love and affection but at what price. We don’t just randomly act as animals do. Every action we take is a conscious decision. I have no sympathy for the mistresses. They are fully aware of what they are doing and they proceed anyway. I get that. I know good people who were trapped in loveless marriages and so felt justified in cheating. As much as I empathized with them I could not condone their behavior. I don’t like divorce but that’s why there is divorce. These mistresses are not angels. None of are. We all have flaws. I was with my husband 50 years. I was 22 when we married, spoiled, career-oriented and working in a field which required toughness. I’m sure people looked at me like they look at the younger wife. My husband was a charmer. He wasn’t a wimp like the lawyer but people always felt he was a saint(he wasn’t). Fortunately our love was real and strong enough to handle life’s challenges. I truly get where you’re coming from but I just can’t sympathize with deceitful, adulterous behavior. Keep watching. I enjoyed your analysis and perspective.

From the comments I see this was a continuation of the same ....two more episodes...your comments are a hundred times better than watching this farce. Take care.

I have no interest in looking at the lawyer and his mistress at all. They are both despicable and despite the writers obvious attempt to justify their behavior I for one am not buying it. So she suffered in her last marriage. So she had a miscarriage. Yes those are terrible things but do they justify her actions. Lots of women suffer worse and don’t cheat or willfully cause harm to someone else. Two wrongs never make a right. The husband crossed the line when he first became obsessed with her butt. She crossed the line when she allied him to pursue her. Again I realize this is fiction but they are not Romeo and Juliet. They are not teenage star crossed lovers. Please let this series end so we can all be put out of our misery.

Excellent analysis.....reenforcing immaturity of 30s husband and his deliberate deceit. Also shows how older woman continues to encourage and indulge in inappropriate behavior. Yes his wife is immature but she works hard and has really done nothing to deserve his deceit. He is a number one creep. Mistress has low morals and is also deceitful. Her alligator tears don’t impress me. She knows what she’s doing. And to bring a baby into the picture just shows how irresponsible she is.
