there is nothing wrong with wanting to establish a successful career and to be damn good at your job and to continue…
You don't put in 80 hrs per week w/o consequences.
It's a lie to suggest otherwise.
FL was the breadwinner and ran the household, others were her subordinates.
Her husband failed miserably, who takes wedding photos of an affair?
Was she lied to as well about his commitment to their relationship?
She believed their marriage was over and she would ultimately end up marry him. You can see the shock of him wanting full custody his daughter, disavowing their relationship.
He's the biggest heel, lying to his wife, daughter and mistress. He didn't protect any of them from his choices.
Being angry is what the actors, director, writers want you to experience.
Betrayal, acceptance, forgiveness were a constant in every episode.
The 2nd FL is us, hoping to pursue Corporate law. You see her reluctance being in family law, the scars and ultimately the transformation.
I wish Kdramas would stop painting women with careers as being neglecful wives and mothers. Their husbands usually…
Neglectful
The father was simply more present than the mother.
She was much more successful and devoted to rising up the ladder in her career.
He didn't advance at the Clinic and easily dismissed. His role at the Law Firm was an advisor/consultant with cases involving Medical suits.
You're wrong no one is immune from trauma from overly controlling parents, step parents, unhelpful siblings in these dramas.

i saw first episod and they already talk about usa, come on..do we really need to talk about the door in every…
Your disdain for the US doesn't reflect what others share. Millions enter legally, illegally to advanced Western countries. South Korea wasn't in the same place as EU, North America until recently. Normal people TV, online use habits reflect that. Is it fabricated, yes. No go zone's, systemic problems exist, yes.
Wow, despite so many comments, Good Partner didn't really suffer from the break
Because the online population are not reflected by the general population. These are a niche group that can't accurately predict how a group they don't belong to will act. Dog show attendees are not your typical dog owner.
Good Partner increase may be attributed to being the better show in its timeslot.
For now i'm on the daughter side.Seeing your family suffer because of selfish and stupid decisions her dad made…
You're falling for the misdirection by the writers, director already.
We don't know the full details of what happened the family split. Loan shark clip, bad investments, entrepreneur described as a disease because he failed.
Two episodes in only, it's way too early to know where the story will lead.
Trailer: Father is an arsonist EP3, unlikely.
Misdirection is something they do too often.
What would be the reasons for him to give up custody of his children, marriage, all contact for a decade and buy the Villa they rented?
Serendipity's Embrace: two males abruptly leave South Korea, FL takes it badly.
Ex boyfriend, first love/2ML for his mental health and ML that failed to disclose his interest. Mother of ML forced him to move to the US. Details matter. Both failed to disclose what happened showing up years later to rekindle a relationship.
Future episodes: Romance in the House
I'll bet father was distraught, failing miserably multiple times resulted in his capitulation to every demand from his family. He was doing what they demanded. It doesn't mean he wanted to leave or didn't love them.
His struggle to become successful was to get welcomed back to his family.

You're old.
Both male/female in highly successful roles do get criticized.
There's nothing wrong with this melodrama showing FL being neglectful.
Her ex-husband wasn't consumed by his work.
The idiot chose to have an affair instead of resolving his marital relationship.
It's disingenuous to suggest only females are maligned if they're successful.
I provided a list of successful males who were failures in managing their relationships with family.
The father was simply more present than the mother.
She was much more successful and devoted to rising up the ladder in her career.
He didn't advance at the Clinic and easily dismissed. His role at the Law Firm was an advisor/consultant with cases involving Medical suits.

Music, lighting, direction are also essential for immersion in the acting.
The viewer also needs to be open to the stimuli for the intended purpose.
Crying in the rain, somber lights, music for effect.
Silent (2022)
Discomfort, crying and overall acting were great in this Japanese melodrama.

Olympics had multiple channels in South Korea?
Waiting for the backstory to fill in the holes is reasoned approach.
Speculation from a few scenes isn't a cogent argument for condemnation.
We've seen tenants humiliate themselves.
"Mean Girls" already formed their minds on the first episode.
His agreement with his wife to divorce/no contact. After a decade, it was safe to return home.
Perhaps a witness, informant for the Police too.
If you have watched Kdramas, you would know to wait for a back story before making absolute statements in the first two episodes.
This isn't reality, like Hollywood/Kdrama's are for entertainment.
His financial failures put his family through hardship is what we have seen so far.
It's too early to have a full understanding.
Repetitive
Ex-wife seeks divorce/full custody and no contact from husband.
Daughter agrees with Mom and states he's dead to them.
His absence/no contact from his family wasn't voluntary on his part from the first two episodes.
He submitted to their wishes after failing them.
Put yourself in both camps with the limited details to understand the issues.
We don't have the full backstory.
We know he failed financially to protect his family.
We know his wife/ daughter demanded all contact be severed.
We see him trying to contact them now.
Some may choose to believe they were correct and without fault.
It's too early to have a conclusion without more information.
Lastly, forgiveness may be a bridge too far for some viewers.
The promotion enabled her to be fired without a Ministry Labour challenge against the Firm.
Fired manager at her expense may file for wrongful dismissal.
Protections were removed. *
*(Speculation)
Heuristics, mental shortcuts*
Waiting for more episodes to fill in the backstory is the best option for analysis.
We only have snippets, business failures, loan defaults

Anyone with common sense can see his mental acuity decline didn't happen suddenly after the debate. We knew in 2019.
