I tried to watch this, but I couldn't endure. I've never seen such a fake actress in my life: fake smile, fake "Bambi" eyes, fake cutesy... fake everything.
2ML was buzzing around like annoying fly... Like, go away, find another woman, touch the grass... whatever. This wasn't even a proper love triangle, just pointless 3rd wheel character. Writers could use this character so much better! He was nice human being, I'd rather see him with his own happy love story.
The amnesia plot was not necessary at all, imo. If they both agreed to pretend to be brother and sister to conceal her identity, we could have much better romance over the time: he would get a chance to know her and fall in love, while hiding it since he is her "brother", and she would have time to understand him and fall in love again, while pretending to be his sister. This dynamic would gradually build their relationship and would make room for many funny and romantic scenes, filled with tension and expectation.
My feeling is that a number of viewers posting here ship Master Song rather than look for flaws in him. A similar…
ML in "Under the Moonlight" was spoiled, entitled, annoying rich brat at the beginning. True, no1 liked him in comment section, lol. On the other hand, 2ML was this wonderful, supporting man, we all loved him. My turning point was that qin scene 2FL arranged to humiliate FL in front of every woman she could gather. I won't spoil it more, you know what happened. After that, I was team ML, and he improved big time.
In "Serendipity" ML did so many things for FL, keeps protecting her, keeps risking his life for her, tries to makes her happy, is kind to her, admits to himself that he misjudged her and so on... and she loves him. 2ML is nice. Helps her. That's it. I personally never had 2ML syndrome in this drama, while in UTM I did.

About park seo jun...how is he a red flag for having this the ideal type...he will look for such a woman who doesnt…
I agree with you, but just want to add one thing: part of his statement, the most important one, is missing here. He said that kids raised by working moms are not raised properly, not happy and yap yap, which is why he wants a housewife to raise his kids. Really shady and judgemental statement imo. I would never have a problem with his statement if there was not this part of it. (And, I am not a "working mom", so it doesn't "hurt my feelings" personally)
I want to watch it, but I DON'T KNOW WHY...I CANNOT LIKE THE ACTRESS. I have seen this couple in another drama…
Drama has season 2, yet to be aired. In s1 there is no romance, but it is clear that he likes her and she is fond of him. It is very, VERY slowburn, I guess, in s2 we will get romance. FL has all sorts of trouble to sort out, so it is not romance focused (in s1).
The male lead was almost forced into a marriage. Her father was pretty sleazy about it which made him misconstrue…
You got it right from the start. I have no idea why girls romanticize kidnapping, and expect every kidnapped, drugged and forced into marriage person would be excited to experience such a thing. Those who blame him for being rude would probably be even more rude than him if were in his shoes. He has 2 or 3 conversations with his mother where he explains literary everything that was going on in his head and gives reasoning for all his actions.
I want to start this drama but.. Seeing your comments i don't know, how is the chemistry between the leads?
In my opinion, FL has better chemistry with ML, than 2ML, but it is "wrong" chemistry, since she thinks they are brother and sister, its "siblings" chemistry, not romantic one. That is why people prefer her with 2ML, since there are romantic vibes between them. 2ML is purest green flag and ML keeps being jealous, but - nothing to be done as long as they are locked in fake siblings/third wheel triangle.
English name was never Go to the mountains and sea. It was just the translation of the Chinese title which is…
I believe you are right, but it doesn't really matter, that was not my point. My point was that when you make a change, you make it for better and not for worse. If, for some reason, they didn't want to keep novel title, they should come up with a title that will make drama to stand out by first glance. And this one they have right now isn't the one.

Btw, you made a good choice in my opinion.
They got away in S1. Since it has second season we can hope it will happen at one point.
