i know you agree with me😂. it's just so crazy. the show isn't even asking us to root for her or support her. the people who support her only do it because she's entertaining, not cos they agree with what she's doing. i wonder what these commenters would say if theu watched Breaking Bad, or watched "You" and saw Joe Goldberg. It's weird to eant the same thing all the time. Villain protagonists are always a nice change.

I feel like they just glossed over the ending. the immediate aftermath of that documentary wasnt half as bad as it shouldve been. also, what kind of media only tells one side of the story. they didn't even bother giving Ah-Jin a chance to tell her own story. i dont support Ah-Jin, but Junseo really painted it like she those people were just living their lives and she decided to target them.

Are you deranged? he wasn't even hating on Ah-Jin. simply saying that Junseo needs a fresh start. why so violent? it's not even that deep. this is why people think the fans of this show are unhinged. you might wanna get yourself checked cos this is not normal behavior.

is this the first time kdrama fans are watching a show like this? it's literally nothing new in western tv. Ah-Jin has got nothing on the likes of Amy Dunne and other manipulative women in western movies. so it baffles me when i see posts like "what's the target audience for this?" uhhh, i think the target audience is people who know fiction is not real and all for entertainment.

junseo was insanely annoying and toxic. I'm the last person who'll defend Ah-Jin, but Junseo was easily the worst main character. truly pathetic,

One drama just redefined what an “insane” villain should look like, and I haven’t stopped thinking about her since. Kim You Jung's masterclass is on full display in Dear X. Here on my thoughts on what I consider one of the best dramas of the year:

junseo is so useless. couldn't even get the job done

i think this might be it, buy the show will have to confirm this. I never took Junseo for the type though. throughout the show, it's seemed like he genuinely wants Ah-Jin to just be happy in life.

that cant be it. it's happened many times before. Ah-Jin doing things to him and giving him some bullshit reason, and then blaming him for her suffering. that conversation ended with Junseo saying that he wouldve endured anything for her if she told him, so why has he suddenly changed?

you obviously hate kdramas AND have no taste.

whats going on with Junseo? its like he's finally starting to free himself from the shackles of Ah-Jins manipulation, but i dont understand what kick-started this transformation. what's making him go back to bis mother? what opened his eyes. I feel like his development just came out of nowhere, so much so that i can't even call it development

how is this releasing? all at once or weekly?

It's actually really good. Some people on X are delusional and actually think Ah-Jin is an icon of female empowerment, but they dont speak for all of us. I like her as a character, but I would never admire her in reality.

This is a recap, not a review. The only personal opinion you stated was that you were bored.

there is one major gripe I have with the finale; it's never explained why Tae Poong's father never legally compelled Pyo dad to fulfill the promissory note. what? he was just a kind man who let it go? i don't think so. he was going bankrupt and he also had employees looking to him for their survival. it makes no sense that he didn't try to get his money back during all that time. Also, Pyo dad's reason for not paying him back was simply insufficient

not just that. each obstacle was different and unique, and handled in an unpredictable way.

i liked it a lot. I think people dislike it because of the sexism by Majin, but that was such an important part of Majins character development.

not making excuses. simply recognizing that there's more to her than simply being evil. she/he is trying to understand her while being fully aware that her actions are totally wrong.

they're delusional, but they don't represent the entire fambase

while this post makes a lotta good points, i think it also has to do wuth Ah-Jins pride. in the past, Ah-Jin has manipulated men so easily, she undoubtedly thought that Dohyuk would just become another name on her list of man servants. after all, he went out of his way to take care of her immediate problems. she probably felt he was entrapped by her beauty or something. she became full of herself and let her guard down. if Ah-Jin were simply playing along with him, she should've started digging into his past the minute she accepted his proposal. instead, she got comfortable and careless. and when her husband started to reveal his true self, she wasn't prepared.
