I came here expecting episode discussion but it's mostly wall of hate instead.


PS

Yes, they used AI. No need to mention it every 3rd comment ffs

Yeah, I suspected that it's totally different.

I'm just making fun of the translated synopsis :)

First episode wasn't very good, second was ok, every episode after that was great

Weak pilot because of the editing, story and waiting for the bomb to go off in FL's relationship.

However, since episode 3 it's consistently good so far.

The only thing I can complain about is the soundtrack - there is this one song that sounds incredibly cringy, like a song for little kids. I hope it won't be used in later episodes

"No one knew that in the study on the third floor, Meng Fu Yuan was kissing Chen Qing Wu’s ear, telling her with a deep voice to be quiet."

Reading synopsis I wasn't sure if it's a romance plot or a rape plot. The wording is weird weird

The general idea for premise is great but the execution...

The script is seemingly fine but it's bland. Every conflict feels like it doesn't matter; just something the story needed to keep it going.

Acting is tolerable but the dubbing is terrible. Not only it doesn't match their lips movement but it doesn't even match the actor's reactions.

I recommend only if you have nothing better to watch

Pretty good rom-com with calculative ML.

It is slow but I quite enjoyed the playing phase. Both of them are keeping their pretence in front of each other which makes good comedy along with the ML scheming all the time.

Negative reviews are mostly because of way too high expectations

The drama was advertised as romance which resulted in the wrong audience watching it. (at least that's my guess since most reviewers here are salty for no good reason)

It's for people who like slice of life dramas.

People who can enjoy a slow journey through life with no villains, no heros, flawed leads and beautiful scenery

Loved that they included BTS scenes at the end.

It's nice to finish a drama with a big smile

Yes, it was pretty good overall. I didn't drop it

Dropped at episode 5.

Tbh their relationship started to piss me off. It's only ep5 and ML already has power over her. It's like ML is becoming her personality.

I really wanted to give it a shot but I hate dramas where FL is practically living for ML and he does whatever is best for him; based on what I saw I think this drama is gonna go that way.

PS

I might give it another go someday but for now It's especially hard to watch because I recently finished Alliance (2023)...

It's on Netflix and/or Amazon in many countries.

Try searching by Korean title 결혼계약

Yes, finał few episodes.

But romance is never the main story.

First few episodes are too slow and depressing but after that it's pure gold.

Especially second female lead's character development. I thought it's gonna be "it's not her fault because XYZ" but the writers did nothing like that.

However, keep in mind it's a slice of life, a story of self improvement and facing life head on. Romance is not the main storyline.

I think leaving it at the new beginning is the point.

This drama is about not being afraid to live, to start over, to take risks, to self improve.

It's based on the premise that there is no end as long you live

What do you mean?

Even though I watched it about 3 years ago I'm pretty sure they're together but just sneaking around.

It was a little low-key because it was shown at the beginning of the episodes and not the end.

At least that's how I remember it lol

Yes, it is implied

I came here because of the reviews but damn, going through the first episode is so hard.

It's like watching live action rage bait

Remember to grab a few bottles of water before starting this one.

I skimmed through some scenes and this is like a parody.

When ML met the crazy girl he told her that he blocked her and smiled. Then got splashed, FL splashed her and called her ayi (阿姨, aunt).

Wth, LMAO

Thank you for a laugh. I enjoyed your review more than the actual drama.

I'm here after somehow watching 23 episodes wondering what I'm doing with my life.

Bro made her believe he chose to play dead with her for a month, ghosted her for years, told everyone to lie to her. It also turns out her family and friends have no brain of their own and went with it not once but every time she asks about him.

And yet here I am watching her chasing him, again.

I kinda want to drop it but at this point it feels like a waste so I came here to look for other sane people that this drama irritated af.

Anyways, thanks again for this review. I'm going to sleep since I finished writing this rant.
