Um....So, the main charcater in this show is trash. I just finished episode 4. I get it, I have lots of episodes…
Perfect post what a car crash of a drama i realised by Episode 6 he wasnt gonna be held to account and the whole rape thing be glossed over so yeah, it waz a pathetic badly written unsatisfying waste of Jo Bo Ahs beauty. And anyone who says any different, obviously thinks him getting off a horrible rapist is acceptable FFS.
The ML was an Ahole basically. He treated the ex like trash for no reason
"You say your piece and that’s it" This is the whole point he never said his piece!!! its realistic their relationship may not recover. Thats not my point its how he just completely blanked her and treated her as if they never had 10 yrs together. She had no right to him but had a right to an explanation and he didnt even give her that small piece of respect. You dont treat people how he treated her. And his not dealing with her led to her believing he was still stuck and that and her own terrible personal life led to her desperation. In the 2yrs after the death that he didnt speak to her once and then when they met just coldly told her to leave him alone was cruel. She then watches him open up not to her but to another woman he barely knows, watching him get to where she was giving him space to get to, a place where she thought he might at last come back to her. No wo der she couldn't accept it as it was just too unfair. For him or the FL not once to consider her as more than a jilted lover who couldnt take no for an answer was what made me stop caring about them. Even at the end it was her that went to him so graciously to let him go. She was doing what he never did for her and even then he was cold and uncaring. I dropped it after that scene. It just cemented him as an asshole. It is characters with such unfair treatment for no good reason that are my big problem with Kdramas. I cannot fathom how anyone could watch it and not feel like her treatment by him was just not how a decent human being treats people. I mean it was laughable that he was willing to remain friends with the neighbour (before we knew the full details) who even then as far as ML knows was there at brothers death but he couldnt bear to see the FL who he was going to propose to. If that was a reflection of his growth and coming to terms with his grief why did it not extend to the ex. Why was he cruel to her to the end. It was so horrible I dont know what the writer was trying to achieve, but for me and lots of others writer just achieved making the ML an unlikeable heartless and selfish person. Despite the death the ex gf was the person i felt most sorry for in the whole drama.

There is nothing in the drama that justifies not at least having a conversation with her to explain all that. He treated her with such cold heartedness and disrespect it was not justified or justifiable. As you said she did nothing wrong, yet she is supposed to be understanding and accepting of it all and move on, while he is not expected to show any understanding of her feelings and at the very least let her down gently. It was horrible behaviour and in keeping with the over all badly written story.
Thank you for noting the horrible way ML treated ex really poorly written like a lot if the drama after ep 6. Totally get the tonal shifts making it seem like different dramas. Could i ask what was the Itaweon incident 🤔
