Hello All! I love a good plot and good villains because it helps avoid some annoying unnecessary cliche elements like love triangles. Like in other Dramas, I don't mind that the romance is not front stage, but I am always looking for gems where realgardless of what happens, the main couple always stays together. is this one of them?

A huge part of the plot is her character development, and when she finally is free of the shadow of her family. However, there is a huge reward on waiting because when they finally get together, they never break up again and we are talking about 10+ episodes before the end, plus all the flirting and move interactions you get from them even in their struggles to be together since episode 1.

What made me more upset with her was the fact that she was the one pushing her way into his life even after he decided to move on, only to push him away, the moment he finally started to open up and have hope again.

Yes, it is.

That's an important part of the show in her character development and how she can finally stand her ground against her disfunctional family once and for all.

I agree... this is the kind of show where a time skip after the wedding showing that they are successful at their jobs and happy with their family (including children) is the epitome of a happy ending, which they deserved!

Yes, I agree. I dislike love triangles, and this one was very weird because the brother was not only infatuated with her, but was also possessive. To make things worse, her family was the biggest part of her problems, but never did anything to help her be free because that would mean that she would be out his reach, which apparently was more important that his "supposed feelings" for her, which again was beyond weird. I skip his scenes with every rewatch.

Didn't you say that the whole story happened in her imagination?

I don't think so, I don't like when the whole story never actually happened...

Good thing that I read this spoiler since there is one thing that I hate more than love triangles, and it is what you just described

Me too!

I am rewatching, and I feel like I'll want to skip the scenes with the weird Wei cousin and his crush and interactions with FL, but I don't think I'll want to skip anything else.

I find it a lot better when the male lead has pride and walks away, and then the girl has to pursue the guy for a bit before they can reconnect the romance, but too many writers pass on this badass (in my opinion) option.

For a short J-Drama at least... I am just disappointed that there were so many possibilities for a better story with this premise. I personally, would have preferred if she found out earlier that he was a Yakuza and the story was more about her adaptating to the life of a Mafia boss even if they ended up free of the gang in the end.

You are one of the few people who I trust in the comment section, because I believe you have been consistent for a long time. I will watch this one, and hopefully will like this.

Than you can imagine how much worse it is when binge watch the whole show in three days ... 😅

I guess it works better if you watch slowly, because binge watching the show makes the same song playing back to back a bit annoying.

The villain's plot armor is abused in this one...

True, but at least it is good

ML is the definition of a "Glass Cannon"...
