Sincere Love Meets Endless Betrayal
I actually liked this drama at the beginning because the FL (Ming Yi) is cheeky, playful, and loves to flirt with the ML (Ji Bo Zai). Their early interactions were cute and sweet, fun, romantic, and lighthearted. But as the story progresses… it turns into a full-blown emotional roller coaster. I was really looking forward to this drama and even counted down the days. I bought the express package, but I’m so disappointed because the plot keeps revolving around betrayal and lies between the leads, leaving the FL stagnant and making the story boring and emotionally exhausting.
The ML has a painful and traumatic past, and despite having deep trust issues, he keeps choosing to believe in the FL. He gives her chance after chance, opens his heart to her, and loves her with everything he has.
And what does the FL do? Lie. Over and over again.
Even halfway through the drama, the betrayals don’t stop. It’s not just because of circumstances, it’s because she’s selfish. I’ve seen spoilers up to three-quarters of the drama, and the FL’s identity is still hidden. I can’t imagine waiting through three-quarters of the drama just for more deception. Seriously, can’t there be any other plot development or character growth?
People say we should understand the FL because of her upbringing and she was poisoned. But it’s not the ML who poisoned her, right. So why does she torture the poor ML so badly with her lies and schemes? It’s just… unfair and frustrating. Honestly… she was raised as a royal child, it’s not like her life was as tragic as the ML’s. So why couldn’t she just be honest? She repeatedly endangered the ML’s life, lied, and betrayed him. At the start, she even followed him willingly… just to steal from him. And then she keeps scheming and deceiving.
Seriously, is this all the FL can do? why can’t she be smarter and capable of reciprocal love? The ML does not deserve her in this state. He’s sincere, loyal, and loving, but all she gives is trickery and betrayal. ML gives all his sincerity and trust, but FL doesn’t match it emotionally or morally.
The director does an amazing job making the audience sympathize with the ML, but completely fails to develop the FL. Her repeated lies overshadow the sincere love of the ML. I’m so disappointed ☹️ I love the ML with all my heart, but my patience with the FL is gone.
✨“If you love angst, betrayal, and watching a ML who deserves the world suffer because of love, this drama will break your heart in slow motion.” 💔
