He got stabbed because of her so his grandpa told her to let him go. So she did.
Ah, ok. That's far from what i thought. What i thought (and i can only guess from the synopsis) is that he discovered she approached him for an ulterior motive. So he believed she didn't like him and was only using him. Wasn't this also a misunderstanding?
where did you see that? both leads have their own plot and ambition and are connected together
This seems more focused on the female lead’s journey, since she drives most of the major story developments, while the male lead seems more like a loyal supporting character rather than an equal co-lead.
Oh wow!! Here we have a C drama without misunderstandings, breakups, noble idiocy, useless best friends, annoying…
Oh yes, of course. Because the only two possible options are either waiting 10 years to confess your feelings or jumping into random relationships with complete strangers. There couldn't possibly be anything in between. 😜🤣
And heaven forbid two adults communicate honestly before several dozen episodes have passed. Where's the fun in that? Why have mature conversations when misunderstandings, hesitation, and endless pining can fill another 20 episodes? 😅
And obviously, once a couple gets together, there's no story left to tell. Relationships instantly become boring the moment two people start dating. It's not like couples can face challenges, grow together, build a life together, or navigate real-world problems as a team. That would be ridiculous. 🤭🤣
No, no. The only way to tell a meaningful love story is to keep two people circling each other for as long as humanly possible. The longer the wait, the deeper the love, apparently. 😜😉
Fantastic. I loved everything about this drama, except for one part, but I'll get to that later.
The quick romance, the romantic interactions, and the very, very competent male lead were all fantastic. He can do everything. He's got this superhuman strength that I love, because it's not over the top. He's clearly not an ordinary human, but he's not a superhero either. I also love that they made him a CEO, so he doesn't just have the brawn, he has the brains too. He can cook, he can fight, he can solve problems, he can do everything.
What I really enjoyed was how they played into that, with the female lead constantly being surprised by just how competent he is. That's exactly what I love in these dramas: a very competent, powerful, strong, and caring male lead, along with a fast-paced romance. I also loved the school romance between the two students. That was great. I really enjoyed that storyline as well.
Now, the one part I didn't like, well, not that I disliked it, I just wasn't interested in it, was the relationship between the two teachers. It would've been fine if they'd only touched on it briefly, but I think they spent a bit too much time on it. I ended up skipping those scenes. But overall, I'm genuinely surprised. I didn't expect it to be this good. Very, very good. Loved it.
tell me you cant be asked to pay attention without telling me you cant be asked to pay attention.this has SO much…
I appreciate that you're actually discussing the show rather than just calling me a troll or hater. I agree that some stories are built around slow payoffs, and I understand the argument that certain setups only become rewarding later on.
Where I'd disagree is the attention-span explanation. If you look at my completed watch list, you'll find plenty of slow-burn dramas, including some with significantly more episodes than this one, that I've rated very highly, many of them 9s and 10s. So I don't think the issue is that I lack the patience for slower storytelling. In fact, if you'd looked at that watch list first, would the attention-span conclusion really be the first place you'd go? My viewing history seems to point much more toward this particular drama not clicking with me than any inability to engage with slower-paced stories.
For me, the issue wasn't that the show was subtle or quiet, it was that I simply wasn't finding those elements compelling enough to keep watching. I also think it's possible to recognize subtle acting, character work, and foreshadowing and still not find them particularly engaging. Appreciating those things and being entertained by them aren't necessarily the same thing.
That said, I do agree that different viewers focus on different aspects of storytelling, and that may simply be where our experiences of the show diverge.
The fact that you have a lot of time to reply to everyone just to justify your troll like opinion..Lmao you apparently…
You’re not responding to anything I said. You’re just dismissing it as “trolling” because it doesn’t align with your view and because you don’t want to read a longer reply.
Replying properly to points someone makes isn’t “having too much time.” It’s just called engaging in a discussion. If the expectation is that every response has to be short enough to avoid reading it properly, then that says more about the willingness to engage than it does about the comment itself.
Labelling it a troll opinion and refusing to engage doesn’t really say anything about my comment. It just avoids the conversation entirely.

The funny thing is that fans of slow-paced shows always seem to assume that anyone who finds them boring wasn't paying attention. Have you considered that I did pay attention and simply wasn't impressed by what I saw?
Subtle foreshadowing, quiet moments, and slow character development aren't automatically good just because they're subtle, quiet, or slow. They still have to be engaging. You clearly found depth and richness in those scenes. I found them dull. That's not a failure to pay attention, it's a difference in opinion.
At least you actually explained what you liked about the drama, which is more than some of the other replies have done. I just don't agree that noticing those elements automatically makes the show interesting.
