I agree with most of what you wrote, except people living in the west not being able to tolerate multiple relationships. My first thought was, you must not be talking about America lol. I actually think it's the reverse, which is what I wrote in my review approx. 4 weeks ago; westerners would enjoy Nevertheless , more than Southeast/East Asians. Which was proved correctly, based upon the network stats!
If you're not American, you'll be surprised what people here are into. As an American sometimes I'm astonished. The drama Nevertheless is probably 90% more subtle than most American dramas.
I agree with most of your review. However, I think the lead characters surpassed being friends with benefits, which is why people consider their relationship to be toxic. When I was about that life, I never wanted to meet my FWB parents or aunts. Heck, I really never wanted to see them except when it was "beneficial." Lastly, I don't think one has to be in a romantic relationship with someone for the relationship to be toxic. Some of the most toxic people I know are in my family.
I had troubles posting this list, as it wouldn't allow me to start the voting until 8/21/21 at 11pm ET. Everytime…
I added Mr. Queeen instead of Empress Ki. Empress Ki is good but I wouldn't necessarily consider her a strong female leader character because I hadn't watched the ending of the drama yet. I'm currently on episode 16.
I put My Mister in the "Is something missing?" box and it comes up as not found?
Try it again... there's a glitch with kisskh, lists. I've had the same issue happen to me today (only today) when I tried voting on another list. What I had to do is make sure I did not type in all caps, and that I typed only the first two words, and then you will see suggested dramas appear with similar names. I hope that this helps! =)

It didn't give me the specific error message that the list will be open for voting at 11pm ET, but rather there's an error with the start date/time. This particular time, I had to choose 11pm for the start time, in order for it to allow me to post. It has been the same issue (error with start date/time) every time I created and posted a list.
I got an error message: "The voting has not yet started..."

Thanks for posting a comment about the issue, as others may want to know the problem too.
What makes a female character strong? A strong female lead character is not necessarily someone who knows how to fight physically, but is a female character that: 1. Uses wisdom most of the time (not all the time, as no one uses wisdom 100% of the time) - A lot of the female damsel in distress characters lack wisdom. They act on impulse, and make decisions that almost always lead them to depend on the male lead or second male lead for the whole drama. 2. Does not allow the male leads to ruin her life, while she sit idly by for the sake of "love," that really isn't love -Dramas tend portray a false image of love when it comes to romance. Love is not a woman taking abuse (verbal, emotional, or physical abuse) in order to be with a man. Almost always in dramas we see that the female lead is deceived, manipulated, or intimidated into a situation by the hands of the male lead. What's the female lead response? They either stick with the male lead through heartbreak and pain, or get back together with the male lead eventually. We often see the male leads choosing their family, revenge, or their title over the female lead, and or we see the male leads leading the female lead on a romantic chase, metaphorically speaking. The female lead in dramas while angered, end up being okay with being the last priority on the male lead's priority list. 3. Is free to choose who she love, even if it's the second lead and not the first - For goodness sakes, dramas will have people thinking that females love attractive toxic men, while hating the good guys who are caring and attractive.
ugh I hate the comments on Viki, about how weak she is with him and strong with others, she is weak with him because…
On Viki?
Everyone is different. Like some people believe it's okay for this woman to tolerate abuse for the sake of her child, it's okay for other women not to want to tolerate abuse for the sake of their child.
I voted for Well-Intended Love and Goodbye My Princess, as they were the only ones on this list which I watched…
You can vote for other dramas that are not on this list. The more votes it has, the more chances you'll see in the top 40.
Btw, Goodbye My Princess was my first choice. The male lead character is beyond toxic! I wrote a review for that drama, whewwwww!
Note: Each user can vote 3 times, and only the top 40 voted dramas will be shown. BTW, if the drama that you want to vote for is not listed in the top 40, you can vote for the drama by adding it to the blank spot that is directly under the 40 most voted dramas; "Is something missing on this list?" Type in the name of the drama, and it should appear. Afterwards, on the right side of the screen (where it says, My votes Rank the shows you're voting for and add new ones), you'll see the 3 dramas that you voted for and be able to arrange them in order by typing in the numbers 1, 2, 3. I hope that this helps. =)

So many commenters have already mentioned the drama Well Intended Love. It must be super toxic!
Well dang! As crazy as this may sound, I am kind of interested in watching it now. I thought this drama only focused on his abusive behavior towards his wife after they get married!
It's easier for people to like racist content when their race, heritage or ethnicity is not impacted. Btw, that…
If my reply was contentious, it wasn't my intent. Nevertheless, racist content should never be praised, even if people, including black people find it entertaining. Respectfully, just because you're black doesn't mean that you are educated about systemic racism, the history of dreads, and South Korea's viewpoint on black people and culture. I don't kee-kee with racist, especially when it's geared towards my own people. I will not argue with you but I do hope you learn.
That's the problem!Going back to a toxic marriage with a manipulative and abusive partner is not good for a child.…
Ah okay! I understand what you mean now. In that case, I can understand why the female lead character would be heartbroken, upset, and even contemplate taking revenge... I can even understand her being in denial for sometime. However, I would have handled things differently, but I can say that some of her actions are truly understable. =)
