Incredulous!
Six episodes in and Incredulity is what has been keeping me going. I imagine it will soon wear off any time now. I am definitely not making it to ep 61. The acting is nice and all, visuals are okay, characters are diverse and enjoyable (the FL's paternal aunty being my fave), but it is the story that's giving me a hard time.
Between FL and ML's 20th breakup in three episodes (over the same unchanging issues no less) and their audacity to rebel and live together but apparently not to run off and get married, I am not sure which one rises my ire more. A relationship for 10 years? I am curious what has been holding that together. Surely not this dynamic we have been introduced to since episode 1 where the ML professes love for the FL but has no problem looking at and contacting other girls?
How do you also explain, that the ML and FL's families live in the same neighborhood and know of each other but somehow the FL's sister is now married to the ex-husband of the ML's sister and both families are oblivious to this fact in the drama.
More importantly, other drama's depict no shortage of part-time jobs but the ML and FL are "studying" all day instead? Almost 30 years both of them, not incapacitated in any way and they won't find a steady stream of temp jobs to support themselves now that they have a baby on the way?
I know Telenovelas hold the trophy for the most incredulous happenings in dramas but this drama, from what I've seen so far is seriously vying for a spot. My amazement at every new episode is what's kept me this far.
