Just started this and the first thing I thought was I already love the opening theme song. This one's going to have a great soundtrack. Still on the first episode and I'm already in tears. Oh, a mum's love. I miss mine. 12 years gone. I love that I haven't seen one negative review either. I hate to waste my time watching a drama I'll end up hating. This is a great start. 😊
You just captured everything I said in my own review. Toxic relationships must be so welcoming to people with how they were agreeing with all his useless reasons for being cruel. Someone said the ring he gave her was a clear sign that he loved her and I'm like yeah, tell that to people in physically abusive relationships who still get all the most amazing gifts on the planet when the partner suddenly feels sorry.
The FL had no idea what love was and was starved of it all her life. So, when she started seeing the slightest semblance of what she thought love was, she grabbed it like her life depended on it. There's no excuse on this planet and beyond for cruelty to your partner. None whatsoever.
Here's something I didn't capture in my review though. I thought the real adult Sa-eon was pathetic. His adult self and the image of the young him they portrayed were too different. As a child he was a psycho killer. How does a psycho serial killer like that not announce his return with series of killings. He wasn't brutal. He was pathetic. The few times he was caught, I'd think to myself, he's definitely killing this person and then he just pushes the person and runs off.
Oh thank you. I kept wondering if it wasn't odd that siblings would fall in love and get married but now I know they're fake siblings and I'm on the episode where you said it'd be revealed. I was about to drop thinking it was a sibling love which would have been so awkward.
🤣🤣🤣 That was quite harsh and I can't say that I blame you. I'd already dropped it till someone here made me pick it up again. So, I'm still forcing myself to go through the motions of watching this drama to see why people like it or maybe the ones that didn't like it just didn't bother rating it. I'm finding some things quite senseless, unbelievable and all over the place but I'd need to finish the drama to figure out if that changes.
I watched the whole show and I loved it. First I was shocked by how abusive everyone around FL treated her and…
I'm of the opinion that words do matter too. Verbal abuse causes as much damage, doesn't it? Words and actions are important and should match. But like you suggested, maybe I should give it more grace. Thank you 😊 PS: Toxic people also give the most amazing gifts. So, no... That didn't really matter to me. He could afford it and it probably didn't matter to him.

Haha... I might consider continuing it later to see if I can get past the toxicity. I understand that there could be a whole lot of pretending but the wife in question doesn't know this, right? And she's been suffering this for 3 years. Pretence or not, it was hard to swallow. But I appreciate your input and will try checking it out again when I'm done with the drama I'm currently watching. Hopefully, my mind has changed towards it🤞🏽. Thank you.
I'm struggling too. 4 episodes in and from what I've read from others, he turns out to be the most loving husband but I can't help but be put off by how toxic the relationship is from the beginning.
Those sensational parts are why the ratings went up to an 8 for me. Was enjoying the beauty of it all and thought the story had come to an end but they just had to continue and then I started getting confused as to why the characters were making the decisions they were making. Then I went back to thinking "Ok, I think we might be back on track." Was going to rate it lower because of all the unnecessary parts that almost ruined the drama for me but it's kinda like hating someone who's always been good for messing up at some point. No one likes that. The drama had its flaws. That's all 🤷🏽♀️

Well, I've moved on to better stuff.
