Why on earth did they name this drama "My Merry Marriage?" I think "My Convulted Life" would have been better.

There was nothing wrong with him telling her how he sincerely felt about her and he let too much time pass without telling her. But he should have immediately took the pressure off of her by letting her know he understood she was worried about work right now and feeling low about her break up. That he would be there for her and if she ever felt the same way about him he would be waiting for her to come.

The way he went about it was completely wrong and caused her to get defensive and push him away.

Absolutely nothing. Unless you want to count breaks, gossip and no real input at meetings.

Well, we have reached the halfway point so hopefully things can start to turn around for her. Because this is sad to watch instead of entertaining, I know this is drama and the writer's intent was for things to play out this way.

They, however, have not given her any real tools to fight back. Being a naive, aging tomboy is a useless skill set to have in this setting, especially when she needs to have some smarts and the ability to outwit events instead of falling into trap after trap.

Don't get me wrong I don't mind the FL having to face challenges but the fun part for me is to see how she overcomes them. So, I want to see her own some wins without having to depend on the ML or her family to save her.

I agree with your disinterest in the GH and DS relationship right now. Also, I am not looking forward to how much the writers are going to make her suffer for the pregnancy.

Tomorrow the FL will get blamed for the Holly leak and all the twits at the office will believe she sabotaged herself except the ML.

Yes you are correct. The story is he cheated on her "by accident" right after they got married. . But, sometimes the story we hear at first is not what really happened.

It bothers me also, but I have seen K-dramas where people are still blamed for stuff they had no control over. I have seen some where the people doing the blaming don't even know the one they are blaming didn't know whatever it was even happen. The writers will sometimes have them keep silent and some third party has to disclose the truth much later in the drama. It's very frustrating writing to me. I don't know why this technique is a thing for some K-drama writers.

I would help you but we might catch heat for beating up a fictional character. Even one deserving it like this guy.

I don't know how family registries truly work either. I am just going off what I saw in C-dramas and K-dramas and China and Korea seem to have those instead of birth certificates and those seem to be needed to even get married.

We can have our problems with birth certificates when the mother does not list a father on it because they don't know who the father is or list a father and it's found out later through a paternity test that the person is not the father.

I recall the FL giving the 2ML a pass on that and is thinking of their time together as positive. I don't know any females in real life that would take what he did to her without trying to hurt the guy.

What the doctor's ex did by just dropping the kid off like that and leaving the country should be illegal. Yes it is the kid's father proven by the DNA test, however he doesn't have legal custody of him. He's not in his family register and she kept him a secret for 5 years. How that is even close to okay or legal to do is beyond me. She didn't even leave the 5 year old in with an adult just abandoned him in front of the new wife's apartment.

It's okay I just got a laugh out it.

I didn't think when we first learned about TU's back story he would be so quick to warm to the Chairman since he sees how easy it was for him to abandon an entire family. Even though it was his mom that did it to him, I would think he would not like that sort of behavior in anyone no matter their reason. I guess I was wrong.

LOL ChatGPT did you mean to post this?

There is also abandonment to an orphanage, which condemns the kid to low-class status more than the parents doing it.

After today's episode and after he committed to the 2nd FL's mother I don't see a path for the 2nd ML to come back to the FL, pregnant or not.

I think her mother already has enough clues to know what's really up with her. FL may still try to cover it up but the aunt has also seen the clues and there is just no way those 2 women are not going to figure out she is pregnant.

Wow, is the 2nd ML about to go dark and underhanded?

Most of the characters in this drama with the exception of Kang Ju's mom and Da Rim act as though Kang Ju deserves nothing. No job, no family, no money. Nothing.
