And just like that, I've lost interest in this drama. Ayaka's reactions are not consistent with her character. Where is this diplomacy coming from? "I trust him"? gtfoh

Plus I dislike when female characters are physically shying away from intimacy. Inexperienced or not, it looks like she doesn't want to kiss the ML or do anything more with him and that's a complete turnoff.

Comfort drama.

Poor Meng Meng. Her parents are actual assholes. How do you find out a teenage girl masturbates and your solution is to put cctv in her bedroom? What manner of parenting is that? And they kept going on about how they loved her. I don't even agree that she had a sex addiction. She was just dealing with normal teenage desires. And it coincided with needing an outlet for everything else happening in her family. Poor Meng Meng.

Prof Ren is a fantastic doctor and mentor but a terrible father and a so-so husband. The things he says to his son? Cruel. He also says a lot of unkind things to his wife masked as jokes and he is inattentive as heck. There's no doubt they love each other but he veers between treating her like an ATM and someone who cleans up after him.

They weren't explicit but the parents judged her for having sexual desires. It could have manifested as masturbation or being sexual with boys. She got pregnant (I suspect rape, to be honest, with C-drama censorship too much is implied) and had complications (when the younger doctors helped her at the supermarket). It seems the experience triggered an underlying mental illness. I'm not sure if her parents' surveillance/detention started then or if it was an ongoing thing already but it didn't help. She seemed to be doing okay at the Rens' till she was contacted by who I assume got her pregnant and she sent him all her money. Again, I'm guessing blackmail. And to be honest, if her parents hadn't whisked her away and locked her up again, her friends would have found out. Tou Tou already noticed she was behaving off.

Hope this helps.

The older sister is a bitch. Of course she's going to get a redemption arc (like everyone else) but she is easily my most unlikeable character. She's mean to anyone she deems less than she is and that's just plain nasty behaviour. I hope she gets a divorce and when the baby is born her ex gets custody so the child is saved from a terrible mother.

Funny to read all the positive comments when the past couple of weeks have been all about how dumb the characters are, the writers have ruined the drama, etc. I'm sure there'll be more dumbtitude in the future so don't down the gloves yet.

Was a bit reluctant to start this drama cos I barely made it halfway through season 1 but it's so good. Bromance is 10/10 and the fight scenes *chef's kiss*

I had no idea she was an idol. Another great example of the idol-acting pipeline.

I cannot put into words how much joy this drama brought me. I loved every second. The humour, the romance, even the annoying characters (excerpt the ex, he can burn in hell). I'm not a fan of narrator in romcoms but there's something about Yoo In Na's voice.

Thoroughly enjoyed this drama.

'Kim Tae Ri was recently involved in a controversy after she requested for "International fans" voluntarily contribute to the subtitles of her Youtube videos.'

She made the request of international fans and not Korean fans so I'm not seeing the correlation here.

Was Su Ying not loved as a child?

I guess handsome male leads cover a multitude of plot holes/tropes/annoyances.

I doubt I'm a reliable critic of this drama because of how much I love it. It has its faults and all the tropes and whatnot but every time Deborah is on the screen, my heart melts. She's so cute and imperfect. I particularly like how open she is with Soo Hyuk. Romance aside, they're pretty much best buddies at this point. Can't wait for them to connect the dots and acknowledge they have feelings for each other.

I've avoided commenting on the married couple storyline because I believe they do love each other. They're basically in a rut and need to communicate better.

I never completely trust translations so "disgusting" could very well be something else. That said, there is nothing that shows she knew he was the CEO. She never met him before and the introduction was one-sided. Plus the CEO tends to be overly friendly in a way that makes people uncomfortable. Look at how he is with his employees.

When it rains, it pours. Just glad for the villagers pulling together like family. I guess we'll be seeing a lot more of Mi-joo and Sam-shik.

I love how the kids sound like old people. It's so cute.

You get it. There's quickness to make excuses for him when it's been shown clearly that he is cruel. But the writers probably figured they could get away with the fakeout for this very reason. People are not going to hate a ML with a sad past on a revenge mission. Especially when they've been provided more "evil" characters to hate.

I am however enjoying the wholesome bits. The humour is just my style.

Not really. The formerly married couple chose the club for both sides. It's not farfetched that they'd choose the same place.

He sent an innocent person to jail for murder in place of the Chairman's son (the dad was protesting in front of the prosecutor's office and he said those mean things to him and we find out later the dad collapsed and the mum took over the protest). Then the man whose company threatened him (the wife gave Kang Ho proof) and he still went to jail despite the fact he requested safety equipment but the company made him a scapegoat. Then there's Mi Joo whose heart he broke.

Maybe murder was where he draws the line but he did go to that extent to position himself for revenge.

I'm not a fan of the revenge plot where innocent people get hurt in the process. And Kang Ho's toll is at three (that we've seen). He was not a nice guy and one can't really put all the blame for that at his mum's feet.

Was really wishing the twins weren't his but the timing checks out so that's that.

That loud neighbour is looking like he's going to be trouble. I was looking at him as comic relief but his violence tipped him into mini-villain territory. The scenes where he's intimidated just by Seung-ho's stare? Gold.

Lol.
