Fables and Secrets

I was just coming here to say this!

I honestly didn’t mind who she ended up with anymore, but as a person, I did not find a few things ok.

He talked off ML from Woo Joo and FL’s life. - I’m sorry, some guy I’m kind of sorta into has no right to talk to a family member that way. That too 1 of the literally 2 family members my child has. She doesn’t know, but I’m sorry he stepped out of line.

Second was that scene. ML left them, he saw him. If he genuinely wanted best for Woo Joo, he would have called to his ONLY uncle to join them or told FL he showed up. It showed this man doesn’t respect the relationships or friendships the FL or Woo Joo has unless he “approves” of it. Controlling and manipulative.

This man has no respect for Woo Joo or the FL as individuals. He just wants them for himself.

Red Flag.

I think they are trying to make her seem like this “serene beauty” type whose eyes tell the story. She is presented very delicately. The issue is that she is not cut out for that kind of character. Like I thought her angry scenes had a little more life in them.

True, but honestly, I don’t think the FL is a prize in any way, when it comes to familial relationships. They deserve each other. I just want good for Woo Joo.

Honestly, if a character like her existed in real life, she would be considered very unreliable as she really doesn’t seem to be doing anything with sincerity. If she likes the SML, she just hangs around, when it came to handling Woo Joo, she just hung around, when it came to the ML, she was just there. She had a few moments, but was not as assertive a person as her character was supposed to be.

🤣

Baby doesn’t know any better. They tend to like whoever is nice to them and he is quite nice to him. 😅

Baby and FL are getting decently good treatment from him. It is us and the ML who don’t 😅

I was just commenting above. I see two potential stories here.

Two in-laws ending up with a kid and struggling to raise him. Funny situations, drama, work and life and love.

Two ex-lovers meeting again but FL has a kid now. So he and her struggle to get back together while trying to bond and raise the kid.

What happened is that, they started with the first one and turned to the second one. So we are stuck not able to love or understand the characters. We have seen only both sides partially and feel detached.

I think the script really flipped sometime during production… it would have worked more if they didn’t do the dreamy sequences with more ML and SML. If you notice, SML’s appearances, get the same flourish as usual MLs. What is happening is that, along with that, she has the same charmed expression for both. We end up getting confused.

They should have gone with a different premise to be honest.

The narrative should have been flipped. Two ex-lovers meeting each other while one is raising her nephew. More focus on their relationship and how Woo Joo fits in. ML would be second lead, less scenes so we don’t get as attached to the character. A good secondary character uncle of the kid.

Yeah, but it is unnecessarily sad. The premise is of the two in laws ending up with a kid and how they deal with it.

Honestly if they had marketed this drama of two people who liked each other, finding each other again, while raising her nephew, that would have worked. No ML, just these two having all the funny and crazy moments with the kid. I would have enjoyed it.

I have decided to be delusional see the light. I hope the rest of the drama is about the FL being a good guardian and her successfully doing a great job raising a wonderful and happy child. She can be with whoever she wants.

ML if he turns out to be the person he said he was in the beginning and cannot absolutely be part of Woo Jo’s life. Then atleast he was honest. I wish it wasn’t so, but maybe he helps co-guardian eventually.

SML can get the girl, I don’t care anymore. If he does, he needs to be good to Woo Joo genuinely.


I just want Woo Joo to have a happy and stable future. The rest of them can do whatever they want.

Yess… I wanted to see how he became their universe. How they lives changed with him, how the term universe is a play on how important he is and how that is also his name.

I’m sorry if this is too out there or crazy. Was there some last minute script manipulation or something happening here in this drama.

I have two theories, the writer or whoever likes SMLs and did this to show the flip side of who actually ends up with the FL. But then they should have fleshed it out more.

The second is, did someone do something to push a different narrative with the SML? Why are the MLs scenes so deep and fleshed out but the one shoved in our face is the SML. Like an agency thing or something.

No hating on the actors for doing their job. Just wondering.

I’m not one to drag the politics on this kind of thing. But the thought has been occurring to me. Maybe not the actor, but maybe their agency?

At this point, she can be with anyone, SML, or anyone else. Her choice, but that child who is too young to remember his birth parents is going to grow up with her and if there is one, her partner as his parents. That child will not remember any other mother or father, even if he knows of them. He deserves a parent who is willing to treat him like their child, who wants to know him best, to make the best decisions as they can for him.

The child is the responsibility of the legal guardian. If his parents were around, he would be their responsibility, if not, he is his legal guardian’s responsibility. Everyone else is just a helper, everyone else can walk away, especially the ML, it might not be right, but he never legally decided to be the child’s parent. The guardian needs to be protecting the child. It is always the official guardian who should know best about a child. If the child was her actual child or his actual one and if people saw them leave the kid or just around random people, everyone would want to take the kid away due to neglect. But since she is not his actual kid and ML his uncle is around, it is ok?

No offense to the people from different sides who are watching this drama, but I really don’t want ML and FL together now.

Hear me out. When I watch dramas, I think of how the couples are around each other and how the happily ever after feels, like it might happen. The FL and her careless nature makes her seem like the Reddit story ladies/men who went after their “one that got away” or “wanted more” or “found my actual soul mate” and cheated on a very green flag spouse only to realize what they had and ran back. The thought of them ending together, makes me think, this will be their story one day, since she doesn’t appreciate him at all. She is nice enough to be kind or whatever, but she will cheat horrifically as she doesn’t have the real emotional depth or respect for ML.

Yess. This! SML is her friend and a potential interest to her at this point. How dare he talk to a family relative that way.

She literally has no relatives, he is mostly it. How dare this person talk that way to a relative who is helping me raise my kid.

I found it very disheartening. She is often not available to the child, she doesn’t know much about him or try to more, she hides him like she was a princess from the Victorian age and he is her affair child, doesn’t bother to look through his medical records, leaves him with an uncle that didn’t initially even want him. I’m sorry, that child comes off as a burden to her life based off her actions. It is sad.

I don’t think it is even the love for the baby that is swaying her. She is attached to them more when they show skills that prove they can do the child rearing for her. 😅

Why did she take that child if she didn’t want it? If I was the child’s mother, I would have just asked her to give my kid to someone who actually wanted him instead of taking care of him due to guilt and a half heart.

I swear between all this, I am wondering where Woo Joo is in the priority list.
