The whole cast is brilliant so much so I even like the fiancee with resting bitch face because of her I learnt…
So if love is not important, she doesn’t need to demand it from him then ?. That is what irritated me about her. I get that it is an arranged marriage, her demanding he love her too when he hardly knows her is a little much. Love can come in time with such a situation. I feel if she is going to make sure he stays in the arrangement, maybe she should show him some respect towards his feelings rather than demanding he feel something he does not yet feel.
I find it interesting that you speak of how all marriages were arranged marriages in the past and no one ever married for love. While this may be true, we still have so many stories of love and lovers that go back well into the past. So people still believed even then that there could be such love in a relationship.
Am on episode 22 & was waiting for the subs to be completed on Viki. I went ahead and read some recaps for later episodes and have decided to just drop the whole show. Too much manipulation from nasty wenches to stretch out the plot. By episode 34 it does not look like the main couple are even together yet. So frustrating and ridiculous. The introduction of the stupid love rival for Zhao Erwen’s affections made zero sense and was just a cheap ploy to draw out the story more...but all it does is waste time and up the makjang angst factor.
I am only on episode 3, but already am more than fed up with the ML. And now, after reading so many comments that say the misunderstanding lasts for almost the whole series, I am reluctant to continue. Making such a stupid, easily resolved misunderstanding last for so many episodes just to drive the story along is crappy, lazy writing. The entire premise for why he is so enraged at her is ridiculous as well. Even if she was the nasty, gold-digging woman who callously broke things off with his friend, that does not change the fact that his friend CHOSE to drive drunk and the ML CHOSE to recklessly chase him. It is an unfortunate series of events but honestly not one that even the nasty step-sister needs held accountable for. She needs held accountable for her actions, yes...but those accidents are in no way her fault, and certainly not the fault of the FL.
This was good, just little things bothered me though. Like what was up with the main females hair. And why did…
Actually the touch thing was very consistent. The kiss to get the ghost to leave her body was just him wanting to kiss her. All he really needed to do was touch her to make ghosts go away, or her touch him. This was demonstrated repeatedly throughout the show.
Totally agree, and I didn't even watch the original. Jang Dong Gun is perfect for this character, and while I'd…
Park Hyung Sik is actually different, in my opinion, than he is in other roles he has done like Strong Woman Do Bong Soon and Hwarang. His facial expressions are totally different and it almost looks like he holds his mouth differently. I think it was intentional to portray the character. Whatever he did, it is amazing and I loved his portrayal. Have not seen the American version, though.
Ummmm South Korea is an incredibly sexist country, and since the Me Too movement has even spread there, there…
I forgot to mention, I have seen the first two episodes of the show and I fail to see this ‘nothing but man hate’ you seem to see. I mean the show is a ridiculous comedy with caricatures of stereotypes in it. It is meant to be funny and not deep. I really think you are projecting your own issues onto this lighthearted show.
Ummmm South Korea is an incredibly sexist country, and since the Me Too movement has even spread there, there…
I am an American woman and I can assure you we are not angry all the time. Feminism is not about hating men, not real feminism anyway...it is about being afforded the same rights and privileges as men. Anyway, I think I will cease this conversation with you as I find you incredibly offensive. And no...I am not angry.
trying to watch ep 1 without luck, i wondering of couple things:1. why there is so much hate toword men? ?? i…
Ummmm South Korea is an incredibly sexist country, and since the Me Too movement has even spread there, there is a lot of backlash over how women have been and are treated there. It is not man hate....just women fed up with being treated like shit for so long.
He actually gained weight for his last role so he might be still losing the weight he gained from that. He was also going through an ugly, stressful divorce...
+ second episode and the [possible] second lead syndrome hit me like a friggin bus!+ fifth episode and I want…
The FL irritates me so much. I am on episode 11 and am still not convinced she loves Jom, and am sick of the stupid between her and Pol. She does not deserve Jom, and Jom needs to stop being her doormat. Ugh.
Do not even get me started on the son’s worthless hide. That red headed girl needed to go away several episodes ago. She makes me want to repeatedly punch her in the face, lol.
I am only 3 episodes in and so far am so irritated by the restaurant manager that I want to slap her with a plate of pad thai. If, as other commenters say, the FL and her son get annoying later too, I may have to drop it, lol.
I am on episode 25 and she has already rejected him, so does this mean he keeps pressing on? Lame. Hate that drama trope. Also, how can he just suddenly switch gears on his so called true love and go after another woman like flipping a switch? Lol.
I understand it when people say that's nothing really happening in this drama and I think that's completely fine!It…
Yeah, I am enjoying it a lot. Their interactions are cute and not boring for me. I enjoy a good slow burn romantic comedy as long as the ridiculous misunderstandings, third party involvements and otherwise super angsty crap is at a minimum, heh.

You are getting remarkably defensive about a comment that was neither tearing down your post or your preferences, hahahaha! I am stating, rather factually, that one particular show does not belong in the list. It does have a breakup, though the stupid bit is when she goes back to him, and it definitely had some love triangle stuff going on. But more specifically, it is so vastly different from the other shows you mentioned that it seemed absurd to me that it would even be there. Anyway, unbunch your panties, no one said shit about you preferences nor was I tearing down your post. As a matter of fact, besides the one show I mentioned did not fit, the rest are great shows and of a similar vein. Oh except maybe Meteor Garden, but that is a personal hatred specifically for me. I loathe that story in all of it’s many many remakes and forms. But I know loads of people adore Meteor Garden/Boys Over Flowers...so I get why you recommended it.
I find it interesting that you speak of how all marriages were arranged marriages in the past and no one ever married for love.
