Though i am rooting for tsundere-kun. She has a great chemistry with Asami. Hard to not root for the Prez who seems to love relying on her. Nonetheless, Taiga makes her better as a person. He's someone she can always rely on. #TeamTaiga
Yeah, usually kdramas with such a premise don't end well, unless it's a campy romcom, where everything is a farce.
Yeah, formulaic romcoms usually use either: -Bittersweet, open ending. -"Patient's records got swapped" /Misdiagnosis card. -"Sudden ground-breaking surgery" card. -Fantasy element or Deus Ex-Machina (intervention of a supernatural entity) by the end...
If you don't want to watch smth tragic. I suggest you wait for it to complete and ask for vague ending spoilers.

That's when tags like "melo/tragedy" come in handy. Since it's a romcom only (yet) despite the forewarning, this could be just a ploy/plot device to make it angsty but nothing tragic really happens.

It's in the synopsis: "he is told he will be murdered and a woman who pretends to be his fiancée when she is told she doesn’t have much time to live" (death flag raised right there) Usually premises like this are shown in melodrama with sappy/tragic endings. But if this is a "romcom" only (the whimsical kind).. Then terminal illness would be a false diagnosis & death threats would be pretty much harmless.
Yeah gotta agree with you, lately if you want a jdrama romance I just come across the adultery theme a lot. What's…
AGREED. To top it off we're supposed to sympathize with cheaters/adulterers having affairs as normal and worth cheering for? I don't consider smth (that breaks families apart) like that a "romantic love story" at all, but i see it as smth to eradicate from society. Thankfully, there are plenty of better Jdrama love stories :3

Apparently adultery is not a crime+very common in Japan. Cuz allegedly "JP has the highest cheating rate in Aast Asia" (figures say it's not as high as in Thailand, France or Denmark tho) They actually "treat prostitution as less morally reprehensible than other forms of extramarital affairs". They have easy access to love hotels and red-light districts and host clubs, etc. Seems like "70% of married men have cheated at least once. +30% women confessed having cheated too". Many women allegedly accept their BFs solliciting prostitutes as "not cheating" A lot of men from what i've read online, consider it as "not cheating" either. As couples stay together to raise kids instead of divorcing, so they allegedly cheat on each-other. Jdrama only reflect that social phenomena. https://flipjapanguide.com/cheating-in-japan/ 1,737 women participated in this survey: https://soranews24.com/2018/06/02/31-percent-of-japanese-women-admit-to-cheating-on-lover-six-percent-say-they-got-caught%E3%80%90survey%E3%80%91/ PS: i'm only citing what i have read/seen online.

The stereotype must be, innit? 🤣

It was an eloquently beautiful story nonetheless.
