Good actors, awful script
Surely the most boring, unoriginal script with the most dysfunctional lead characters ever. The director also did a terrible job. There are so many terrific actors in this drama—I feel sorry for them.Xxxxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzxxxxzzzzzzzxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxzzzzzzzxxxxzzzzzzzzzzzzzxzxxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzxxxzxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzxxzzzzzxzzzzxxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxzzzz I mean, what else is there to say besides I’m amazed that I made it to episode 9?

What a disappointment
I could only make it through 3 episodes and that was a struggle. The ML is emotionally abusive and physically intimidating to the FL from the time he marries her through the 3 years they've been married thus far. She is mute (for reasons not explained, so very weird), but he's never bothered to learn sign language and forces her to use her phone to type everything to him. He regularly intimidates her physically, and represses her movements and what little social life she has. It's super disturbing. We're probably supposed to blame his family, who are also awful people.From what I'm reading, this is another typical storyline of an abusive arranged-marriage husband eventually becoming a decent, caring person through interactions with the FL. And we're supposed to forgive him for scaring and hurting her for months or years, because he's good-looking and kind later on. It's a disturbing storyline, and one that shouldn't have been written once, much less for multiple dramas.
Oh, also the mothers are crazy, abusive and power-hungry as well. I was never sure who the dads were, but assume they're the same. And the FL has virtually no personality, and doesn't seem too bright, so there's not much to root for here.
I'm going to go look for a better drama.
