He he he he...... I don't know which member you are referring to....My opinion is -Cheating is not legally punishable…
Not particularly referring to anyone in particular. There's just a line of people who say they they don't understand why people have such strong opinions whereas I think it's just a minority of people.
Again, you can root for both characters, however, though most would lean more on one side than the other, it doesn't mean that the other side is completely in the wrong either.
1. Regarding that point, the ex was a douchebag and the ML wasn't particularly heartbroken at having punched him. As he said, these type of shitty character tend to cause problems later down the line so basically one could argue the FL allowed him to see how much of an ass*** her ex was and avoid the trap of working with him. Nothing better than avoid a ticking time bomb when you can, which is what the FL helped him do, albeit unknowingly.
2. That would be the logical to do. Except she wasn't thinking rationally back then. She went into panic mode. I think one can easily understand that. When they finally met again, it was after she was hired... I mean she could say whatever she wants, did she even have an ounce of credibility left in his eyes?
3. You're being unfair here. I think they made it pretty obvious that she's a vey hardworking person who always took care of her little sister, working multiple jobs and suffering humiliation repeatedly wearing a smile. Employment is SK is a nightmare especially when you haven't gone to a famous University which is more a matter of circumstances than will. If you come from a single parents' house and your own mother didn't have the best education either, it's a given you're not gonna have the best in terms of education and you're bound to struggle more than a middle class person who are already struggling a lot for that matter.
It was clearly shown she was working on the side on top of preparing for a civil servant exam. In what way exactly is this considered lazy I wonder...
Whereas the dude can flaunt his Black car whenever he wants and doesn't go to his job. Of course, we don't know his personal circumstances... whether this money is totally his or inherited but at the end of the day, when you learn your boss is the CEO's son, and the dude doesn't even go to work or give a sh*** about other people's livelihood, it's no wonder she blew up. And we as viewers also know he really doesn't give a sh** about this job in the first place... I don't really see how you can blame the FL for what she said.
4. Err well, this is a drama... What do you expect?
I don't think people are polarized because it's honestly easy to understand and root for both characters at present.
Although I have to say, that in spite of empathizing with the FL... my heart really breaks for the ML... You can feel how much he loves her with every single longing look. My God, when he met the husband... ššš My poor heart was breaking all over again... It's like the FL basically breaks his heart every single time they meet, either by unknowingly saying something hurtful, making him heartbroken due to the whole fake husband situation or just making him care too much with her family issues...Also the che-mis-try is I.N.S.A.N.E... That's how you build sexual tension guys! My God these actors really know how to sell this couple but I disgress...
Anyway, there's a couple of strong opinions here and there, but you'll always have some viewers with strong opinions regarding anything due to their past experiences... There's one member which comments I haven't seen for a while who was ALWAYS dropping in the comment section to make comments regarding cheating characters. It didn't matter that these characters had their own stories and might cheat for reasons developed or explained in the drama... for this particular member, these characters were ALWAYS no matter the reason unredeemable and deserved to die and that was it.
Some stories might trigger some people due to their personal history, and they have the right to express their issues...But there's almost 20000 people watching this drama at present, honestly most people have a more balanced stance regarding the whole thing.
I feel for the ML seriously... It's not that Da Rim is not attracted but she's completely buried under the weight of all her problems, she obviously can't really indulge in the whole romance idea.
Now that the ML has used his Black card, I guess most of her money problems are resolved... Doesn't change the fact that she lied, basically comes from a poor background, with education from a third rate college ( and my God does Korea care about those). Unless he makes it really obvious he's into her, the status gap would make any sane woman look elsewhere.
I'm so ready for the pinning phase though... thus I don't mind the marriage misunderstanding ( no pinning without some obstacles)... What I'm not really enthusiastic about is the father trying to force the ML and SFL to get married. Because you know it's coming sooner or later. The FL is already in a vulnerable place, so you know Papa Rich can easily threaten the ML and do a number on her if the ML doesn't submit.
So ML is persuing a married intern and people are ok with it ?? The problem I have with fiction like this is people…
Even if what you wrote was true - which it is not - what's the point of watching a drama if controversial situations aren't explored?
In fiction, you can kill people and still be the hero... Or you can pursue a married woman who's being beaten by her husband... That wouldn't be ok IRL since you're basically taking advantage of a person in a vulnerable place, yet storytelling is here to make even the most controversial situations acceptable.
If you don't like morally grey characters, that's fine. But what's the point of a drama without DRAMA, I wonder...
Can someone explain me why sibling of the one who was in debt always forced to pay on their behalf? It is illegal…
I don't think Loan sharks care about what's legal or illegal. Also if I was a loan shark, WHY would I spend so much effort finding somebody who's gone into hiding? That takes lots of time and money.
The only thing I'd care about is getting back my money and that's it. It's way faster to target the family. I don't really see what you don't find normal here? Do you think people who do these jobs care about morals and ethics?
Based on the teasers available for next week it looks like JH will figure it out soon- probably in ep 6 or beginning…
THANK YOU!
Seems like Episode 6 to me... Would seem logical to end episode 5 on a cliffhanger with the fake husband joining the company and these scenes happening in episode 6.
BUT In some miniatures I've seen Da Rim and Ji Hyeok being intimate with each other and these scenes were in no teasers and/or previews I came across so far so...

Teasers? Where did you watch those? I've only seen the preview for ep 5 but I've seen a couple of miniatures for episode 6 except it's never the teaser. It's people posting screenshots of the teaser for episode 6 and commenting without saying where they got it... (So I didn't bother with the comments, I'm not interested, I'd rather watch these teasers myself).
No No suffer with all of us....this drama is insane woke me from my Kdrama slump!
I just started it... I gave up... But I reached a relatively good compromise. I'm watching it in Korean without any subs. That way I can still follow most of the story but I'm not necessarily tempted to spend time in the comment section since I probably missed some details in the dialogue ( I recently sat for the TOPIK for which I'm expecting either level 4 or 5).
If the story is worth it ( I mean I A.D.O.R.E.D the first two episodes) I'll rewatch it with Korean subs at some point. The dialogues are pretty easy compared to all the business talk I have to get through in Queen of Tears ( which I'm currently watching with Korean subs) so it's a very breezy, pleasant watch since there's very little I don't understand.
PS: Btw I think you didn't get my comment. I'm self-employed i.e I'm my own boss. It's very different from working from someone else because you have no one to answer to but yourself.
Well... I had just started watching this... Really liked the vibe... Then I come here... I see people talking about a season 2... I'm like "Oh Come on' "... I check the last episode...
WELL WELL WELL.
Glad I didn't invest more than 20 minutes. I won't bother unless I'm sure a proper ending is coming... Too bad because the show was pretty charming...
PS: Btw thank you for the long novel spoiler below ^^
I just learned from another member that the FL wakes up from a coma or whatever... Classic censorshit in action...…
Nah I don't have it... Since all these big companies are bent on making us spend more than 150ā¬ in subscriptions, I've decided to only commit to Viki and iQiyi which are the only ones worth my money as far as I'm concerned.
BUT for the record... Since my last posts, the š“āā ļø website that I'm using reuploaded all the episodes in Full HD so even though I've yet to watch this series, I now have it available ^^ But thank you for the update.
I find the Japanese acting style for female characters rather, endearing. Makes a nice change. And then there's…
Lol I never said nor even thought you were Japanese. That was just a general comment. Obviously if Japanese portrayal only appealed to Japanese people, a website such as MDL wouldn't exist ^^
As somebody who doesn't watch a lot of J dramas, I haven't come across lots of mature female characters but it also stems from the fact that I enjoy rom coms and rom coms often feature the silly type hence the fact that I avoid these shows. But I'm very much aware that the production is vast, and it is just that what I mostly watched when J dramas are concerned just happen to always feature female characters acting childish.
Never watched a single show with this actress... This being said I'm sure you can find anything you're looking for on nyaa (with a VPN of course).
So when this drama initially aired, when I came to the comment section... It was mostly pretty negative... which led to me thinking the current high rating was mostly due to people fawning over Dylan Wang. Hence I almost decided not to watch this... But Dylan Wang being a favorite, I ended up just postponing my watching of the show... (I've got lots of actors I really love, but I don't engage in fangirling. No matter how much I like an actor, if the show sucks or if they perform badly, I'm gonna say it like I think it is).
Which once again proves that you just can't really decide to watch or not watch based on other people's opinions.
Just started this yesterday, and it's such a blast I wish I could just binge it. Can't believe I'm that hooked with a show that is so far without any romance (ep 6).
I find the Japanese acting style for female characters rather, endearing. Makes a nice change. And then there's…
Probably more a matter of taste. Personally never liked it, but obviously Japanese people like that, otherwise they wouldn't make their female characters act like this all the time. I used to watch way more Japanese shows though, so it really used to irk me but since I honestly must watch less than 5 straight J dramas a year, and I tend to avoid Japanese romantic comedies like the plague, it's no longer that much of an issue.
I prefer when their female character are acting "normal" and don't try to act like children. Especially since Japan knows how to write good adult female characters.
It's either that, or they enjoy the "dominatrix" type which is just another extreme... But again Japanese humor always go for "extreme" characters.
No No suffer with all of us....this drama is insane woke me from my Kdrama slump!
Yeah yeah I understand. But as I told you, I work from home. The consequences are much harder to deal with when you have to self-discipline unlike somebody who doesn't have access to their streaming websites during working hours.
No No suffer with all of us....this drama is insane woke me from my Kdrama slump!
Still resisting... I think the first week was the worse. I'm actually very much in the mood to watch a good rom com' and this one looks terrific... but I really don't want to go through the whole waiting game. So, I'm currently hesitating between starting it in Korean with K subs which would mean taking about 4 to 5 days to finish 2 episodes given I still have to rely heavily on a dictionary... but which also means that I won't have to wait too much in-between episodes or just binging the whole thing with eng subs once everything is released...
However I've just started a very good C drama, and I'm literally hooked from the first episode... which means... It's way easier to resist temptation.... But I've seen people are definitely tuning in... I think I'm just gonna watch some clips until all episodes are released š
Just a correction: both barely had their Birthdays around the beginning of filming. Hou Minghao barely turned…
No you didn't understand what I wrote.
There's an 11 year-old gap. IF she was 18 he would have been 29 which in my opinion would still be a problem. I KNOW she was 17 and he, 28 when it was filmed. I don't know how to better write this.
