I've really been enjoying having a resilient FL who can stand up for herself for once, and I'm really looking forward to watching how she gets to her military era, so maybe it's worth it in that case.

Yeah, I mean, even from the trailer and the first few episodes, it was clear there is going to be a separation, but I'm just crossing my fingers that they don't make it too long or make the leads hate each other or something during that time.

Oh no! That's going to feel like absolute torture, I just know it. I'm already so attached to them!

It really shows that their parents actually wanted to be parents and raised their children in a loving household. There are so many things I've noticed with little pigs on them. For example, the well that FCN gets water out of in either today's or yesterday's episodes.

Anyone else scared the separation's gonna be really long since we're only 9/40 episodes in and there's already been a kiss scene..?

OMG, thank you so much!! This actually cleared up all my confusion, and I know who's who. You are doing god's work over here!!

Oh ok. I'm typically fine with war heavy plots and some politics, but this drama just seems kinda hard to follow right now. I originally got into it for ZLH and TXW, and the fact that I haven't seen a plot similar to this before, so I won't be dropping it. Maybe I'll start understanding more as I keep watching. Thank you!

Question for those who have read the novel: Is this drama going to be very castle politics heavy? After the last 10 minutes of episode 9, I have no idea who most of these new characters are or what they're talking about. I also can't get a single reading on their character and whether they're good or bad people.

In my experience, Netflix usually has the worst subs of all the streaming sites, and it still only says his name for me. It could be a location difference. I find Viki and illegal sites have better subs because they are human-made.

I just watched the preview for episode 11 and OH MY GOD. It's totally giving "touch her and you die" vibes, and I'm already SO in love with our leads. I can't wait for the rest of this show. So far, ZLH and TXW are not disappointing at all!!

Yes, I'm so glad I don't have to wait an extra day and risk being spoiled! I hope Netflix keeps getting more cdramas and having the same schedules as the original streaming sites.

As someone who hates love triangles when done wrong but loves them when they're good, I'm excited to see what this show brings. I definitely see a lot of potential after the first 20 minutes of episode one, but I'm gonna wait a little longer to decide if it's worth my time. Hope the writers didn't mess this one up by overloading it with the same excessive amount of cliches and bad character writing that's been happening to a lot of dramas lately.

Romance as the main focus:
- Love Next Door (2024)
- When the Phone Rings (2024-2025)
- Family by Choice (2024)
- My Dearest Nemesis (2025)
- Love Scout (2025)
- When Life Gives You Tangerines (2025) (Warning: the whole show is really bittersweet)
- Bon Appétit, Your Majesty (2025)
- Would You Marry Me? (2025)
- Our Universe (Currently Airing) (Warning: Very annoying and long SML plot)

Romance as a subplot:
- Good Boy (2025) (police, action, thriller, mystery)
- Law and the City (2025) (law, slice of life, friendship)
- Idol I (2025-2026) (law, mystery) (romance and other plots are pretty equal in this one)

These are just some that I really found worth my time, but make sure to read some reviews before diving into them, because some have some cliche moments in them. Hope that helps!

Anyone else rewatching the sweet moments in last week's episodes while they wait in anticipation for Thursday (I like to watch both episodes together)? Or is it just me?

I almost cried when Tae Hyung was signing up/dropping off Woo Ju on his first day of kindergarten. When he saw the side-by-side of their names together and started calling him Woo Ju instead of just "baby" and when Woo Ju hugged him, I think he felt so parental. And in a way, he was fixing his own childhood by making sure Woo Ju knew he wouldn't abandon him and that he would come for him. It was so heartwarming to see that, and I hope we see more scenes like this soon!

I love the main couple so much, I genuinely can't get enough of them!! I hope we see the last of the SML in ep 7 and ep 8 can be the leads actually getting together, or at least her realizing her feelings for him cause their chemistry is too good to be wasted in this situationship.

I think I'm gonna be stuck doing my schoolwork for another 2.5 hours before I can go home, and then I have to go to the gym for an hour, so I might have to wait until tomorrow to watch if I don't want to ruin my sleep tonight 😭 I just hope I don't get any spoilers on TikTok like always. But enjoy for me!!

Yes! I want our leads to get together so bad. The chemistry is literally overflowing atp and I can't wait much longer! I can't wait to get home and watch todays episode!

I think I'd like the idea of one just for like 1.5 eps at most, where the ML doesn't even have feelings for her, and it's just her one-sided hope. Just to help the FL realize her feelings. Anything other than that would probably make me throw my computer at the wall lmao.

I'm gonna give them around 1-2 more episodes to wrap this SML arc up because for me lowest bar for pushing a SML is Tastfully Yours, but Our Universe hasn't come even close to that level yet, so I'll be patient and wait for now. At least they're feeding us with a lot of CP scenes this week.
