Oh no Really??? Are they saying why they hate the character?
In one aspect she got better as of episode 9: she began communicating a bit better with the ML and seems to be more committed to their relationship. (We'll see how long that lasts...)
Nah, China can do kissing real well when they choose to LOL. Feel free to watch 'you are my glory', 'only for love', 'as beautiful as you', just to name a few.
Oh no Really??? Are they saying why they hate the character?
I can give you my reasons if you'd like.
1) She behaves like a child. The ML and FL chose to be in a committed relationship. He keeps up his end of the deal, being very caring and respectful toward her. Meanwhile, she does nothing for him, gets mad at him for work-related issues that sometimes don't even directly impact her, blows up at him as a result, and then just storms off to sleep at her parents' house without resolving anything. Twice she's threatened to break off their entire relationship without talking things through or even attempting to see things from the ML's pov. This character is supposed to be a 27-year-old adult, who's already had one long-term relationship, and who agreed to a marriage-like committed relationship with the ML. All the while she's acting like an insipid teenager who stomps her feet and flounces off without discussion whenever she's mad. I hate that.
2) "Dead fish" kissing. There are legitimate reasons why a character would not want to have s*x. But in an adult relationship where kissing happens, there is zero reason to make it so lackluster, especially when the ML is doing such a great job of bringing the heat. It's okay to have hot kissing that stops at just kissing. It's been done before, and very well! (You are my glory, only for love, and more!) This show brings back dead fish kisses (think Love 020, the TV version) in a way that's more appropriate for a teenager or college-age student who is experiencing her first taste of romance. Completely out of place in this show's setting.
3) The FL in the novel which this show is based on is completely different. * Mature (98% of the time) * Doesn't run off * Communicates well (mostly) * Kisses him back properly!!!! (while still waiting to go all the way) So I'm even more frustrated because they had terrific source material to work with but decided to destroy it for the show.
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.
what you don't like specifically about the FL Im just curious because I do like her...and wanted to exchange thoughts
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????

Not feeling the chemistry between them at all.
