I agree 100% with your review. I'm surprised that so many people hated the ending. Why would they want the female lead to end up with the toxic male lead, instead of the sane, and mentally healthy other male lead?
I freaking loved the ending. I can give you more reasons why the female lead and male lead (see the spoiler message…
I freaking loved the ending. I can give you more reasons why the female lead and male lead shouldn't be together, as opposed to the reasons why they should. I list the reasons why in the review that I wrote for this drama. I actually don't think that this drama needs a second season. I think if it's not done right then it would ruin the credibility of the first season. Since there will be a second season, in the second season Yumi should date her manager, and the male lead should date his ex colleague/crush. Please don't have the female and male lead get together in the second season, keep that for the third season. The male lead should date someone who is just like him in the second season (meaning someone who put themselves first when in a relationship), so that he can understand what Yumi went through when dating him. Was the male lead a nice person? Overall, yes, but nice people can also be unkind. Niceness doesn't equate to kindness.
Bruh, if this drama isn't the most relatable K-romcom, I don't know which drama is. Episode 13 (at the 36 minute…
Episode 13 (at the 36 minute mark) - It was at that moment when she realized that he wasn't who she thought he was. How many of us, have had those kinds of moments? I used to think to myself, did I really know him (who I was dating/in a relationship with)? Was I in love with him, or who I wanted him to be? Like dang, how could I miss the red flags!
I have one episode left. I hope that they break up, as the male lead isn't ready for a romantic relationship. He always put himself first, not once did he put anyone including God before himself, and most importantly his communication is horrible, for a romantic relationship. Yumi put him first up until the side-chick/friendship incident. In episode 13, I just found out that Yumi didn't know that the male lead liked his ex-colleague/friend. For some reason I thought that Yumi knew that, but she had to find out by overhearing two people who she didn't know speak about it. At this point, I hope her and her manager get together. He seems like he would be a better fit.

Happy is subjective. For me a happy ending is a realistic ending, in which accountability is held.
I can understand watching dramas for escapism. Like you said we live in a sucky word. Thus, I believe seeing the victims in a drama win, and the the evil people lose is satisfying. For me, that's truly escapism, as in this world, it's not like that!
After watching the end of episode 8, I've come to realize something about myself. If I ever feel or think a man…
I've come to realize something about myself. If I ever feel or think a man is making me compete with another woman, I'd drop the relationship even if I really care about him. Someone who you are in a relationship with should never compete for your time, attention, and affection. After what happened in episode 8, it would probably be the end of my relationship with the male lead character, if I were Yumi. I 'ain't' dealing with catty women, or another woman, trying to gain my boyfriend's attention. If he doesn't handle it, I'd say bye to him too.
At the beginning of episode 9 (the first 4 minutes) the male lead gaslighted Yumi. He tried to say that he didn't tell Yumi that his ex crush and current coworker lives in his building and stops by to borrow stuff, because it would make her sensitive, like how she was being "sensitive," at the moment he got caught. She wasn't being sensitive but rather is upset at the fact that he lied and deceived her. For goodness sake he dodged her request to come over for over two weeks. He thought lying and deceiving her was better for her, then giving her a heads up that the girl who he used to like, and currently work with everyday, now lives in his building. I wouldn't trust him either. This man is more toxic than her ex boyfriend. At least her ex-boyfriend was upfront about his douchebag behavior, but this one is pretending to be a victim.
During episode 9 around the 10 minute mark when he said that he was taking care of it (meaning, handling his co-workers affection for him), he said he's doing it in a way that would not make anyone feel uncomfortable. BRUH! Why does he care if someone who he is not in a relationship with, but knows that he is in a relationship but still persist in flirting with him, is comfortable? Why would he risk Yumi's comfortability level for someone else? To make sure his girlfriend (Yumi) is comfortable, he should definitely make another girl uncomfortable by telling her TO LEAVE HIM ALONE (very sternly).
At this point, I hadn't watched passed the first 15 minutes of episode 9...but obviously the girl he used to like means something to the male lead character. If she didn't, he wouldn't care about making her as comfortable as he is making his current girlfriend, Yumi.

Great review! If you liked this drama, then you'll like the drama The Story of Ming Lan, Story of Yanxi Palace, The Legend of Dugu and Weaving a Tale of Love.
I've said this already further up the comments, but I'll copy it here as well.Clueless is loosely based on Jane…
What you mentioned is stated in the movie Clueless. I am an American, and am old enough to have watched Clueless when it first came out. I've watched the movie Clueless several times since then, but yet, I still feel a tad bit disgusted by their romantic relationship.
Thanks! Perhaps, I should have asked for the channel number lol. I recently moved to Korea and since I don't understand Korean, I do not know what the remote control says... but if I had the channel number, I could press the numbers on the remote to find this show.
I agree with your review, not necessarily the rating. As I am watching this drama, I keep asking myself what will happen when it's time for the crown prince to marry? Have kids? Technically, in real life the crowned prince probably would have been married before the age of 16.
