what you don't like specifically about the FL Im just curious because I do like her...and wanted to exchange thoughts
You're right. But there are so many ways to create angst. I hate that they chose the path of turning the FL into a childish moron. It might sound like a harsh judgment but I'm honestly so past done with her. And I'm mad as hell at the ppl who ruined her for me.
i dont understand she was in a 7 year relationship. is it a born again situation
She's 27 years old. She got together with her ex-boyfriend when they were in high school and they broke up the year before our show's story starts- so, on her 26'th birthday.
ISTG if it weren't for my soft spot for Miles, and the fact that I loved the novel and I'm holding out (the teeniest bit of )hope that the show will revert to that story eventually, I'd have dropped this show like a hot potato.

This!! Exactly this!! I've commented this before but I'm beyond frustrated so I have to say it again: the FL was amazing in the novel. I detest what the show has done to her.
sorry, I looked high and low but that is the only translation. unfortunately. I ended up paying for the rest bc…
Eventually the novel will be released in full for free. I beleive the release schedule for the free chapters is two chapters per week, or two per month. I paid because I finished reading this ages ago. I believe it was almost six months ago when I first began chapter one. Even with paying for the later chapters, they were still being translated, so I had to wait for them to uploaded for purchase. The translation just finished a few weeks ago. Anyway, if you wait it out, you'll eventully be able to read it all for free. If you have any questions and are interested in spoilers you can ask me and I'll do my best to answer <3
Im on episode 5, at this point she has the doubts, she doesn't know why he picked her, and she is insecure, Im…
Maybe she will indeed grow with time. I do hope to see her mature.
The parents are terrific in the novel as well; very supportive.
Mile's character in the novel is not a bad communicator; he's a very firm boss but he eventually earns the respect of his team. This is something the show screws up too. In the novel he was placed into the managerial role and was much younger than the other team members. They tried to to test him, but in ways that challenged *his* personal authority--not the bank regulations themselves. So he couldn't really "punish" them because techinically they were not breaking any rules--it was only a battle of wills. In the end, his will proved stronger and he won the respect of his older underlings by being great at his job.

The actress is great. The character I have issues with. IDK, I'm expecting too much of her maybe. I'm looking at her behavior like childish tempter tantrums. Even is she tells him calmly, "based on your actions I don't believe we're suited, let's break up", I still wouldn't like it but at least she'd come off as somewhat understandable. But all I can see is she doesn't like what he's doing so she blows up at him then runs away....childish in the extreme. Not someone serious at all, let alone serious about marriage.
I think her ex bf might make himself a nuisance. Also, in the novel, the department gets a female employee who is determined to go after the ML. However, in the novel, neither the ML nor FL give those others the time of day. Not sure how the show will handle it, though.
What on earth are they doing with the FL? She is completely changed from the novel! In the novel, her biggest issue was a lack of self-confidence, which leads her to doubt that the ML truly likes her. But the only consequence of this, beyond her own inner monologue, is that she sometimes snapped at him or spoke harshly to him. However, their relationship as a whole was never in doubt, no one ever threatened to leave! They were married. Period.
The show FL is ridiculous. Wishy-washy in the extreme, doesn't communicate well, doesn't even try to understand the ML and the reasons behind his actions, won't talk things through, just basically stomps her feet and flounces off whenever she's unhappy. What on earth are they doing???? They took a sensible female character, made her ridiculous and made her behave like a child to boot! What kind of 27-yo acts this way????
I can only speculate, since the hold-up is new to the show and as per the original novel they get married immediately. But I believe they'll move their intended timeline of a year forward for the sake of the ML's mother. In the novel she was a major deciding factor on the issue. So I can see in the show that might insist on seeing the certificate, photos, etc. While I can see them holding off on a ceremony, I do believe they'll obtain a license to be officially married sooner rather than later in order to please his mom.
So far I'm not getting the vibe from the novel at all.Make no mistake, I'm not complaining. So far, the first…
I will say the one that the one thing I don't like from this adaptation is that the main couple holding off on getting married. In the novel they get married immediately, which opens the door for a lot of plot lines (major ones) which I really enjoyed. It also forced the leads to think of each other and interacct with each other in certain ways since they were a married couple. I'm disappointed that the tv show is holding off on that for now, and that they're shifting the focus to a work competition--something that does not exist in the novel. However, I am curious to see how they'll build from that and how/if they'll incorporate different aspects from the novel into this altered setting.
So far I'm not getting the vibe from the novel at all. Make no mistake, I'm not complaining. So far, the first four episodes are good; I'm happy with the pace, and, as a stand-alone, I like the story development. I find the story to be engaging and the couple is adorable. But the show is definitely not matching the mood of the setting or the personalities of the characters as I understood them and imagined them from the novel. The storyline of the show itself also has some major changes from the novel. It'll be very interesting to see how everything develops. Looking forward to episode five!
