Yes, that was why I was surprised at his reaction. His sister is practically bringing up the child he had at 18 (probably convincing her mother not to have an abortion) and he's turning on her. I do wonder though, whether he's being harsh because he thinks he should, but deep down he sympathises. When he gave her the list of clinics, he did look really worried for her. Perhaps he didn't have any choice in whether his daughter was born or not, and had the baby suddenly dumped on him? That might explain his attitude.

I don't. He seems to be a good doctor, and I really don't want this drama to go down the "the ML must be a rich CEO" route. I hope his family learn the error of their ways and begin to run the company well themselves.

Oh yes. One of them will idiotically keep a written contract in an unlocked drawer for her to find.

I hope not, but it certainly looks like she might. If there *is* a custody battle later on, you can bet it will be her and not SML who instigates it.

I have a feeling that I may hate the SFL as much as the awful Sara in YLAG. I still can't watch Park Ha Na in anything without wanting to slap her. 😐

I felt sorry for her dad. He seems so nice and caring, and was truly worried about her, and she was awful to him.

As someone else said, I think he's pretending not to see them, in order to find out whether she will be relieved or sad, which would clear up whether she really wants the abortion. He could see that she came into the medical centre in a highly emotional state - not really ideal for making such a huge decision, and his job involves taking care of hormonal women. He knows if he just sits her down and talks to her, it won't work right now. That would certainly explain the part in the ep 3 preview where it looks like they're still in that room and she's hitting him. Of course, it could also be that he can only see one baby, whereas there should be twins (in early pregnancy, one twin can often be lost while the other survives). My main thought when he said that was "well, obviously you can't see babies! You're scanning way above her womb!" 😂😂

There are quite a lot. If you search for the tag "contract marriage" you'll find a few. It's not such a popular theme now, but lots of older dramas used it successfully. Favourites of mine are Prime Minister and I, Marriage Not Dating and Goong (Princess Hours). There is also Full House, which is very popular. If you want a slight twist on your fake dating, you could try Crazy Love (where only one of the pair has initiated the fake relationship), or Bride of the Century (where the girl is actually a double of the supposed fiancee).

Chinese dramas offer a lot of fake dating. I'd recommend Go Go Squid, Girlfriend (2020), Perfect and Casual, and Unforgettable Love (2021).

Jugglers was great. No-one ever seems to remember it though.

No, she was in a long-term relationship with someone else, but her boyfriend cheated. She found out she was pregnant after breaking up with him. She doesn't really know the male lead at this point.

The first episode is fine. The most risqué it gets is a man in standing around in a very thick velour dressing gown.

A very good first episode. All the main characters have been introduced clearly, and the main plot has been explained. With some first episodes I can get to the end and still not understand who the characters are, but not this one. They also managed to get in some humour too. An hour passed pleasantly, and I didn't feel like skipping any scenes. Also, I'd forgotten how much I like listening to the ML's speaking voice 😊.

It's a happy ending.

😂😂

I think they should get an award! We see too many dramas where the female lead is meant to have no money but is wearing designer brands and has a different coat every day. Haeng Seon's outfits were very much what a mum in her mid to late 30s with no spare cash might wear.

No, as far as I can tell, Channel 3 were saying that Monday's episode will be the end.

Some people seem to think that all drama viewers should watch everything like a drama critic, and that a series should only be considered good if it is full of gritty realism, state-of-the-art CGI, explicit sex scenes, worthy moral messages or incredible action sequences. In actual fact, most normal human beings sit down in front of a screen and want to be entertained by a good story. Sometimes that means a silly comedy with ridiculous over-the-top acting. Other times it might be a soppy little romance where holding hands is deemed super romantic. In my opinion, the joy of watching many different dramas lies in finding so many different styles of entertainment, and not constantly looking for flaws in everything.

You're absolutely right about the forehead kiss. Like the much-mocked back hugs in many dramas, it can be far more meaningful than a basic kiss on the lips. It obviously came from a feeling of caring love, and a wish to protect her, not just a sudden rush of lust. I do have a nasty feeling from the preview that Dal might actually stand up and kiss him though, and someone will be watching them - hence the "scandal" mentioned.

Yes!

Yes, I suspect without the romance, the only thing he would regret leaving in this world would be the food. 😂
