I find that I have been dragging to finish watching this for some time. I want to like it but I think the drama obviously lack plots and I don't really like Do Ha.
I like the actor playing Woo Hyeon though. Usually BL would raise the actors' popularity in some form but I don't think this is it.
I think the plot point is abit ridiculous, but maybe cause I don't really understand potato. This isn't bad however.
As that said, I enjoy the comedy here. ML and FL's bestie are mood time to time. I think it's ML first drama since discharge from Military Service after Extraordinary Attorney. Also here to support him 😊
Bullies need to be bullied to be justified and have a taste of their own medicine in how the bullied that they bully feel. Any form of apology (if any) doesn't help as the harm have already been done. Even if apprehended by law, usually they still hold grudges and become a much worse person than before.
She's Lady MacBeth. She can't help herself, just like the scorpion stinging the frog. But I didn't really expect…
Oh right, totally forget about that part. My bad.
That said, she's treating them both kinda different in different times. At least she really didnt kill Si Yuan despite being able to have so many chances to just leave SY to die

The difference is she knows ZB family for not very long despite "family" while raising an innocent child for 10 years. This child kinda became like her actual son, so she didn't do what she did to ZB, to SY.
She kinda have been a "plot armor" to SY many times despite him finding out things related to the incident which could eventually linked to her but she still rescue and spend money on him time to time. He might be her redemption for her past actions, despite knowing SY may find out her secret eventually but she has never harmed him.
I think I dropped somewhere around Ep 3 or 4. It's been quite long I cannot remember. There's a lot of dramas on my list to watch that surpass my desire to watch this so I eventually didn't watch this anymore as I realize. Commenting based on memory
While Meihua's initial actions cannot be forgiven, but raising and protecting Si Yuan felt like her redemption. We don't know whether to like her or hate her because we kinda like her at first only to know she's a self seasoned actress! Better than fake Na Wei.
Without Si Yuan, even Zhi Bai wouldn't know she was the true cause that everything follow. She made a mistake killing Tie Xin just to find Gai De so she shall reap what she sow, digging everything from her past crimes. 10 years is how her freedom comes to an end since she didn't attempt to kill anyone after that major incident until Tie Xin's death at her own hands.
But at this point, not too sure whether she treated Si Yuan well because she felt sorry for what she did to his family and is making up for him or was it really she treat him as family, like what she said. She can even get rid of her benefactors whom she said they are family because of her initial desire to continue to live well and free, so that's what very grey, and I think that's also for us to think about on our own.
But at least we know, she didn't kill Zhi Bai twice. Her first attempt failed but throughout the revelations, she was kinda supportive of her own demise. And that's what makes her a likeable non-conventional villain.
Overall very well done, neglectable plot hole (you are likely to not notice if you are not an Analyze or Thinking person) although something seem Sus at times, but they are not exactly predictable as the story differs from prediction, at least for me.
So far so good, except for the scene where it wasn't raining but they just had to add the heavy rain and thunderstorm effect. Didn't think it was that necessary as they are obviously not wet...
People eagerly pointing out SML character being bad because of how he easily just have sex with another woman AFTER breaking off a relationship
I wasn't sure he was in a relationship in the first place since he is the only one putting in the effort but got constantly picked at for his nice guy attitude which she supposed to already know he is such a person before being in a relationship only to call him out for this again and again. And kinda embarrassed him in the public (even though there is only 1 outsider)?
It's good they broke off honestly. Else would she be wishing he begged her to not break up with her? This seems like her attitude when she didn't expect he would say "sure, let's break up." He obviously hesitated a bit before he agrees in breaking up. He wasn't treated right by his so-called girlfriend.
Being somewhat interested with someone else while in a relationship is hard to be of control. Taking any external action while in a relationship is cheating. SML didn't do that, he just have sex with someone else whom initiated while he was out of the relationship. They were both grown up willing parties. While it seem very casual at least to SFL, it doesn't seem so for SML.
Definitely not a bad character to me. It would have been if casual and open sex is all he wanted, but he did stay committed to his past relationship without cheating.
Falling in love with someone else whom seems to be the right person at the right time when he is fresh out from the oven is not very common, but if it does, there's nothing morally wrong. He later knew she is divorced but yet he is still interested in her even after already ate her. How is that bad character compared to so many true playboys and fkers who can't control their pants in this modern days. 🤷🏻♂️
Right, and someone actually forgets he has been putting effort to constantly finding new and good food restaurants to please his gf only for gf to not be appreciative and constantly pick on his nice guy character.
If you alr know he's a nice guy, but still date him and have problem with his nice guy personality, then the problem is with you. Who you tryna change?
Very modern, but at least can tell they aren't that casual they thought they would be. I like their chemistry and hope they realised they like each other for real soon

That said, the actor is not UGLY.

This drama needs more viewers. Rating deserves 9+
Episode 25 ending scene is different than the rest. Commemorative of The Embers.
