What makes you feel it is bad and cringe? I think the writing is pretty good. The only bad thing I see is the rather mediocre acting but I'm fine with it as long as the story is interesting.

Why should she hide that contract in her own home? It was hers and Do-guk's business only. Who could have known that the ex invades the house to snoop around? If she had to hide the rather harmless contract, she also should have hid her panties because who knows who might steel them.

I like how the ex is becoming more and more obsessed with Yi-joo. His mom is right. He should have treated her better when she was still his gf/financé. Now that she's gone he discovers that she's a good person, not just an opportunity.

Well, I don't think it is difficult to play an evil character in general. You simply do a few bad things, and people will automatically hate you. The worst actor is able to portray an evil person who, for example, beats a child to death. It's easy.

However, when it comes to more complex evil characters, I completely agree with you. I love actors who are able to make me fear (and curious) what their character might do next, and I don't mean disgusting torture.

I don't consider the sister evil, btw. She's just selfish, mean and relatively predictable. The mother is probably the evil character in FL's life.

I think she's doing a good job playing annoying and hateable characters. She has something that instantly makes me dislike her whenever I spot her on screen, and I cannot even tell what it is. Maybe it is her acting, maybe not.

(Since some people cannot distinguish between an actor and his work, I have to add: I don't loathe the actress, just the characters she portrayed.)

Zero dating experience but a lot of experience in flirting, performing romance and hot kisses. Very believable.

When FL offered ML to marry her instead of her sister, I was really surprised in a positive way that she not only understood implications (the key to his hotel room) but knows what she likes and what she wants/ doesn't want. Knowing that FL knows what ML means, makes his flirting much more interesting for me. I haven't been so invested in any drama couples for quite a while. :)

Admittedly, I cannot tell Botox from the rest apart either. The perfectly smooth forehead is usually an indicator. When the mother gets angry, it's mostly her eyes that are getting angry while the rest remains the same. That's what bothers me most because I cannot tell whether I see bad acting or a lot of plastic surgery/botox/filler or both.

lol, exactly. That's why I'm surprised that I'm enjoying this drama so much. The script is really good so far.

Regarding the sister, I don't know if she's done a lot of work. She looks normal and shows a range of facial expressions. The actress played basically the same role in Penthouse. I hope she won't end up getting typecasted forever. :/

I was really surprised by her acting. Before her character died in ep. 1, I thought her acting was fairly poor and annoying. After she got her second chance, she literally became another person who feels like an actual person, not just some poorly written trope. She is doing a good job. :)

@The White Truck of Doom, thank you for the information. I did some research right after I posted that comment, found the option myself and successfully tested it. Not on you, though. :)

I agree with you and would add that it's great to see a "grown-up" story where people in their late 20s/30s don't pretend to be innocent virgins.

Regarding Reborn Rich, I'll help you if they pull that ending.

Several of the actresses in ep. 1 such as basically all visitors in the gallery, FL's mother and FL's almost-mother-in-law. It was fairly distracting when half the face isn't moving at all.

By the way, my first comment was written after I completed ep. 2. I've just completed ep. 6. It's fairly funny that the botox people seem to be on the evil side while the more natural looking people are on the good side.

Wasn't there a function to block people on this website? If you feel I'm trolling, please block me. Unfortunately, I cannot find that function.

I think I'm remembering a past encounter with you where you told me that you are watching like 10+ dramas per day, which I doubted by doing the maths. I didn't mention it back then but I am not interested in the opinions of people whose days are longer than 24h.

After so much botox, fillersand mediocre plastic surgery in ep. 1, I'm surprised that I'm enjoying this drama more than expected. In ep. 2, I started to like FL. Not sure about the other characters yet.

The first 9 to 10 episodes were fun and entertaining but after the secrets were revealed, there wasn't much story left. The remaining episodes were extremely dragging. I stayed for the second lead couples but the writers rushed through their stories to focus on rather boring scenes with the main couple.

Let's say, he'll learn his lesson. :)

If you prefer lots of romance scenes, you'll probably get disappointed. Skipping everthing but the romance will make you skip like 80 % of the drama. This drama explores the historical events and the suffering of the common people, especially the fate of Korean women in this war.

I don't think she WANTED to protect Gil-chae but she knew that she would lose Jang-hyun if she killed Gil-chae. Sending Gil-chae back to her husband was the only way to keep Jang-hyun. In this respect, she's probably similar to Ryang-eum.

I interpreted her statemente regarding the safety of the slaves/captives like you but also as a last attempt to show that she's still in power and able to protect what Jang-hyun values. If you watch the next episodes, you'll know what I mean. :)

Just two episodes left. I'm so afraid to watch the ending of this drama. ^^

Yes, I agree with your reply. But not because he didn't WANT to express his feelings. In later episodes, you'll see multiple times that he desperately does want to express his love. What he did, was done out of jealousy, not because of surpressed feelings. That's a big difference.

@Whitelies, JH thought that GC would return to her husband. He didn't want to destroy her marriage. And since he has nowhere to go, he decided to sacrifice himself to help the captives go back to Joseon. His sacrifice would be to stay with the princess.
