The one night stand? I read it in the novel and sceamed!!!!
4 more episodes, that's too long a wait!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you!!

Agree with your assessment.
And people need to seriosly stop using that term so loosely. It's dangerous to the unfairly accused and a huge disservice to those who've actually been groomed.

Beautifully put. 100% agree.

BTW, do you know if there a full translation of the novel in english? The link I'm using is still in progress and it's driving me crazy waiting for more lol

sounded like a little girl to me.

I'm flipping through the novel and have some questions.

Han Tin in the novel is cold as ice. In the show he isn't, despite being formal and running rings around JX. But the show clearly portrays that he likes her, and knows that he likes her, and will go out of his way for her (secretly). In the novel, I'm seeing none of of that at all.

Also the cat, university connection, past history, etc, from the show isn't in the novel at all?
What's up with that? Is the show completely different from the novel?

Tropes that have been used to friggin death in asian dramas and have GOT TO GO already:
1) overly intrusive "funny" friends who always butt in, listen at the door, and are insensitive as heck
2) the "perky" manager who does whatever the f they want, run circles around the main character in the name of "doing good" and just turns everything to crap

gender doesn't matter here, power does. he has it, she doesn't.

she didn't leave him for money. she left him bc his identity was revelaed and his mother forced her to. she'd have left him without the money, too. she took it since it was offered, but the money was not the reason for her leaving him.

imo he knows her reasons for breaking up, he probably got to know a bit about her history while dating her and he understands her. he's going to convince her to fight for them, trust in him, trust in love. it's not a matter of him forgiving her for choosing money over him bc that's not the choice she made at all. she chose self preservation above trust and faith in him.

the money is not an issue here, for either of them.
its about her taking a risk on love and trusting a man to stand by her and with her. that's what he has to convince her to do.

thank you!!

does anyone have a link for the novel's english translation?

i haven't read the webtoon so i'm answering you based solely on the synapsis above.
the fl took her younger sibling, escaped domestic violence, and established herself in a career all on her own.
this shows me that she's a pragmatist, a hard worker, and is likely strongly dissillusioned by "love".
such a woman suddenly discovers that her bf belongs to a rich and powerful family-the family that employs her.
there's the money gap, the class gap, the fact that the bf is her defacto big boss, and, to top it all off, the bf's mom makes it plain that she wants to get rid of the fl and will bribe her to go away.
faced with such a situation, based on her current position and on her history, it makes sense that she'll break up with the bf. since she's leaving him, as a pragmatist, she'll take the money that's offered her. why not? she can probably use it for herself and the sibling she's supporting.
she doesn't have the support or power to take on her bf's family and fight for him, nor is she idealistic about relationships. she can't risk it. she needs to look after herself and her sibling.
also, both in kdramas and in real life, having in laws who dissaprove of you or don't like you is sheer hell. full on marriages have broken up for less, let alone relationships prior to marriage.

oooh got it. Thank you!!

what's the story with the evil princess, the other wife who forced the fl's first husband to kill her?
why is she so evil? what's her problem?

Lin's friends are annoying af.

Thanks!

There is standard "misunderstandings" like in those short c-dramas where the other woman frames the female lead and the male lead misundertands and blames her, or the male lead sees/hears something the female lead does/says and takes it out of context blaming her, etc.

There are people who don't like that, which I respect.

This show doesn't have that.

The "misscommunication" here is mostly confined to one part of the show, more towards the end. It happens because secrets get revealed and the characters are too hurt/afraid of rejection to clear it up. Usually misscommunication in shows is frustrating, and when I come across it my reponse is to feel frustrated with the characters and wonder why they can't simply speak up. I shout in my head: "What's stopping you from speaking??!" In this show, however, everything develops very naturally and it's very clear/understandable why the characters behave the way they do.

This is all just my personal opinon, though. And I'm not trying to talk you into watching a show you won't like. Just giving you this extra information to clarify what other comments might not have made clear. <3

Ive watched the entire series but I think I might have missed it.

When the professor shows up at the hospital after her car accident, obviously her parents are there and he sees her mom. But that isn't treated as a "great reveal", just shows her dad having some fun with his daughter's new bf.

Then when she gets the formal job offer and shows up at the professor's hotel room, her uncle is there and professor obviously knows they are related. No one treats it as a surprise.

But when and where does the professor find out? Where is it shown on screen as a reveal?

Is there a part on-screen where Yuyou finds out who QSY's mom is?
