Sometimes you want a little trashy entertainment. LOL

I was looking for a series with jealousy and scheming and this looks to be what I want. Now, the female isn't the brightest. Like she is blaming the guy who showed up AFTER the fact for the crime. Instead of asking even 1 question. So, that tells me she's dumb as hell. But the writers want me to think she's courageous and clever. She has more fire when she's faced with the ML, but cowers around anyone else. So, I'll just tolerate her antics for now.

Male lead is hot and I like the ones who can't be swayed. So, I'm going to enjoy watching him defy everyone and end up on top. But I also know I'm in for him being silly enough to simply say, "I didn't do it." Like the last series I saw him in, "Be Not Meant to Be" we all know the "screenwriter won't allow it." lol

She's that type of character and those types just don't entertain me in stories. Nor do I relate. The women in my family are all strong even when faced with the same type of trauma she's had. So, I can never relate to characters like her. I get why she's like that, but it annoys me because at what point do you demand better for yourself? At what point do you begin to fight back? If this man wasn't in her life to rescue her from every situation, what would she do?

See, these are questions some aren't asking, because she is your typical damsel in distressed waiting on her white knight. And it's expected for her to be this yet-to-bloom flower who will blossom under the man's shadow.

For instance, she could NEVER hold a position of power like a manager at her job. Those employees would run her into the ground and take advantage of her at every turn. and she'd let them and apologize for upsetting them.

This series is 6 episodes too damn long. It's repetitive, it focuses a lot of characters every day, mundane life, without the flair a soap opera has. Max action includes some scenes where gangs are fighting in groups, but nothing badass. Save one scene in a hallway that was cool, but few and far between.

I'm getting through it by skipping all of the boring scenes.

That scene was such a let down. Like, you're supposed to be this great fighter and you go down when the weakest links take advantage of the opening YOU gave them?!?!?

I've never been so disappointed in a series starring a gangster before.

Honestly, I've been doing a LOT of scene skipping. Don't expect the lead to be the John Wick type. He's trying to be nice to everyone, and just going through life nonchalantly. Ep. 12 and I'm still waiting to see him cut loose. Maybe it'll be the series finale.

This is one of those series that would have benefitted from being 8 EPS or less.

Maybe he'll fight in ep. 14. I'm still trying to see why he's so feared, because so far, he's burned out and just coaxing through all of the drama. Not taking enough situations seriously. So, maybe now after what happened, he'll get himself together.

Annoying FL. Yes, I liked that she realized, eventually, what she didn't want in a partner. But it's her attitude toward the ML that is irking me. He's pretty much been her Knight in Shining Armor the whole time and yet she plays with his emotions. Her hot and cold attitude ... if I were the guy, I would have been left her alone. I don't have time for those kinds of games. She wants to think he's some playboy, but she really hasn't seen it. Reading some comments on a paper about how he feels about the women he encounters is just as fair game as her own prejudices she not only had against him when they first met, but also continues to have, yet she feels like only she has the right to have them.

When she turns cold, it makes him back off and be cold too because she doesn't communicate why she has the attitude, she just has it and is hostile toward him, so he backs off. Like I said, she's too much damn work, trying to break down the walls she keeps putting back up instead of asking him if he's a playboy. Instead, she rather listen to gossip from others even though, when she sees him with that one chick, it's never romantic. It's always him trying to avoid her. She's never seen any photos or other women claiming he's been with them, so this attitude just comes off as annoying to me since he's always been there for her.

The jealous ex's antics are what's driving this series for me and maybe it'll pick up once she stops pushing the ML away. I also don't really care about the 2nd couple, mainly because of the SML.

I agree. It be nice if we got to see him do some Yakuza type stuff. Since it's in the title and all. This could have been called "My Corporate Boss' Beloved" for all the office scenes we get.

I thought she'd at least try to blackmail him into dating her or giving her a higher position or raise. But asking him to leave? What really is the purpose of that? He'll still be dating FL anyway.

Her weakness is unbearable to me. I hate characters like that. Like even if you lose, at least TRY to fight back. She claimed she can handle her family business herself, but as soon as her mom shows up, she folds into herself, needing to be rescued. 😫

She just so open and friendly with anyone who shows an ounce of kindness. Miss goodie two shoes and so uninteresting to me.

My standards must be high, because this chick is hella boring to me. Everything scares her and she lacks backbone. The plot is still floating around somewhere. Eventually, it'll make itself known... I hope. This is your typical Edward/Bella relationship where the chick is pure and wholesome and the bad boy just can't resist the light she brings into his darkness. 🙄

And that would be fine with me if she wasn't so pitiful. Always needing to be saved from everything and everyone. Even when she claims she can handle certain ppl and situation on her own, when faced with the problem, she folds like a cheap lawn chair.

It's okay.

He's knows all about her because he's stalked her. That's not anything he needs to be praised for. And she didn't even call her boyfriend to tell him what was happening to her mom. She hasn't told her boyfriend that she's being threatened and stalked.

She's keeping secrets that will endanger them both, thinking she can handle it when she can't, because she's dealing with a power hungry, controlling, obsessive psychopath.

Ppl really are not recognizing villains these days. He doesn't love her. He's obsessed with her. There's a difference. He wants to control her and make her feel indebted to him. If he really respected her, he'd either leave her alone or just pay for everything anonymously, but he wants her to know it's him so he looks more capable than her boyfriend so that he can have her.

And if she gives in, she's asking for more control and less freedom.

He's the most interesting character for me. Truly wicked. As for MiYoun, she being silent about the stalking isn't helping. Does she think NOT telling her boyfriend will protect him? Not by NOT telling him and breaking up will just have him walking away, even when he finds out that the villain is still after her?

I honestly dislike that trope because the woman always "breaks up for the sake of the man" and the man never gives up. So, it's like, wasted effort that only ends up making the woman look weak and stupid and puts her in more danger.

She should have told her boyfriend what was happening.

That's the thing that pisses me off about that trope. All it ever takes for them to cave is threaten the lover. And they never tell their lover what's happening. They just leave them confused and heartbroken.

I'd be nice if the man moved on and found a woman who will never be weak or silly. You want to choose to live a life of misery, fine.

Like, she never really put her foot down when confronting him. Not once did she say "I can't stand you, I don't like you. Stop stalking me you sick bastard. Even if you spent your last dollar on me, I couldn't care less. "

They way he was stalker her requires serious fortitude to resist.

I was pretty excited for this drama, but so far, it's been a let down. I don't care about the sisters storylines at all. Especially the older sister who is just despicable. They just distract from the more interesting ML story and his villain friend. ML has been a little too nonchalant about things happening around him and that's why his girlfriend has been harassed constantly by that guy. When he caught dude grabbing on her the first time, he should have handled his business. But he's living in the past, thinking dude is still the same way he used to be. And I'm a bit annoyed with his girlfriend who isn't telling him ANYTHING about what's going on with her being stalked and threatened.

She did what the typical female does in these situations and decided to cave under pressure without a fight. I called it, to which really pisses me off, because I wish I was wrong. Does she REALLY THINK her boyfriend is just going to accept a break up? Also, what does she think will happen next? That dude will just leave her alone? Or just pay her way and not expect her to be his woman? DOes she think her ex boyfriend will see them together and just move on? Like he's not going to go savage and start fighting for her? Why even make that stupid decision for the both of you without letting him know what's really happening? Is she prepared to just be this gangsters woman, living in constant fear of disappointing him?

I hope she has a better plan than just breaking up.

I love everything about this damn series. It's already a perfect 10 for me and it's not even done.
1. great hero and heroine with amazing chemistry. When they look at each other, you believe the love , respect and admiration even if they don't say it.

2. Wonderful villains that actually pose threats. I like when you get to see what the villains are up to and what their plans are.

3. the action is top notch. I mean, these sword fights and martial art performances have me charged.

4. was I the only one who watched the Commander in the battle of Rundo on his horse as he when in the heat of the battle? My guy was unbothered and sexy as hell with arrows flying all around him.

I love that the female isn't making foolish decisions under the guise of wisdom. She doesn't always need to be rescued, she can handle her own business and her man has faith in her. They play off each other and trust each other and I love this. More like this please and thank you!
