I loved it! Finally, I got around to watching it. however, I cannot stand the way character Ahn oh joo talks.…
I tried to give this drama a chance now, and I'm really suffering too much from the antagonist's voice. For what? I even think it would work better if he had a normal voice so we could focus on his evil. With his voice, I even forget about the things he does, as my brain shuts down when he starts talking.
Aside from the leads, I have a lot of issues with the other couples. To start with the most cringe character -…
I confess that I was surprised when I saw many people not liking U-ri and wanting the boss to go back to his ex-wife.
Why go back? It didn't work out, in the first reunion scenes no trace of feelings was shown and I believe that everything was very well resolved between the two.
As for U-ri, I only see her as a passionate person. I believe it may have started with an admiration, but then it turned into something stronger and she is visibly delighted when her boss arrives. It would be nice if people could see each other when they're in love to see how silly they get. I like her character a lot.
This drama is regular but what bothers me the most is the FL acting. She is always very exaggerated and performs forced and not very funny gags. I haven't watched another drama with her, so I don't know if it's because of the script or really bad work.
As for ML, this "revenge" makes no sense. If in childhood he made an appointment and left her waiting, shouldn't he already feel vindicated? Mainly because she talked about it, so he could understand that it shook her and any desire to "get revenge" on her would have already been achieved. So at that end, when he smiles cynically at him, I thought it was pretty off-key.
The only character I like so far is her assistant. She is always supportive and even without knowing how to swim, she threw herself into the river out of the desire to save her. The fl has much more chemistry with it than with the ml.
Maybe I watch it out of curiosity and because even though I don't think it's great, it doesn't bother me. I can already imagine how things will be from now on, but I hope it gets better.
I agree with both of your points. After seeing your husband refuse to give you his organ and help to save your…
The drama should be called "The Conspiracy", because I've never seen so many people against something the protagonist has the right to do. She needs to rescue the person she was in the past. Someone who by their own efforts managed to get into medical school and fought until the end to finish it. Even after some time has passed acting in a different way, surely the essence that you have is hidden somewhere in your soul. I still find her very "victim", "tearful" and "dramatic", but I'm sure there's much more to her that can be shown. I hope that happens at some point.
It’s truly irritating at this point. Every time she says « honey » to this sob husband, I cringe…. This…
kkkkkkkkkkkk... I liked this one more than our "Brazilian" version. I would really like the protagonist to show what she came to, because until now I still think she's very "the poor thing".
I agree with both of your points. After seeing your husband refuse to give you his organ and help to save your…
With the exception of the part where he acted instantly when he saw her passed out in the CPR room, he always acts like an idiot. His attitude in this episode was almost an analogy to his attitude in the past, when she sprained her foot and he was willing to protect her. But this could clearly be an attitude you have with a colleague or a sister and not necessarily with someone who arouses your love interest. Unfortunately they made a mistake and after that it was just problems after problems (except in the head of the protagonist who thought everything was fine with the useless family treating her like a maid). However, I cannot understand what made the husband not divorce his wife, thinking it better to keep an affair with the woman he "believes he loves" (which is not true, because if he did, they would not live that way) , being able to simply end it all in a more honest way. What frustrates me the most about this drama is the behavior of people in general. The way everyone deals with problems is truly strange, from teenagers to adults. They seem to live in a parallel universe of common sense.
It’s truly irritating at this point. Every time she says « honey » to this sob husband, I cringe…. This…
I really need to see this woman "waking up to life" (this is Brazilian slang and I don't know if it has an equivalent elsewhere, but it's something like "awakening" and "understanding that she needs to act against the life she lives now") .
so basically, nearly all the others know about the affair except her, and he's still her precious husband, and…
I think the biggest challenge of a script - especially when we have few episodes - is not to postpone some attitudes too much. It's no use making her change after the last episode, because we want to see a little bit of her life after such a dreamed up attitude. I know that she lived for a long time as a person who serves everyone, but when she decided to go against the "system" of her house, she should really take that position and do everything to be the best and not be waiting for others all the time. and being practically an idiot. Honestly, after seeing the entire family refuse to give me an organ, I would think twice about giving my soul to them. It even seems that she only did it with the sole intention of getting support from her family and being "deserving" of her husband and children.
I only sympathize with the mistress on one point: her first love was taken away. After that her "misfortune" are…
Thanks for saying what I thought. Yes, she went through a breakup (I don't believe that her "love" was taken away, as the decision to stay together at the camp was both of their choices and her husband was not obliged to do anything), but the fact that she stayed with a married man and pregnant with him, it was totally her choice. Doramas manipulate us through the suffering of others, but if we look at the first few chapters, we can see the lover's totally selfish and petty behavior, including with her own daughter. The husband does not respect anyone and instead of the lover understanding this and moving on with her own life, she becomes his accomplice to "end his wife's career", even understanding that from the moment the wife becomes independent, the fewer excuses the husband will have to not divorce her.
Despite having a fixed pace, I liked the drama because it presents people in their daily lives, with their pain, emotions and who have to deal with difficult decisions. It shows that when someone is too emotionally fragile, any word can be a reason for their destruction. It presents marriages for convenience and many times you have to give up someone you love, because you understand that it is the best for them.
Plus it talks about friendship, and it reminded me of friends I bring with me from childhood. It was nice to see the importance of sincere friendship being portrayed in a drama so nicely.
But without a doubt, what captivated me the most were the children. What kids!!! They gave an acting show and I hope to see them more often in other roles. I was really blown away by the two boys and it would be great if they could work together in some close work.

I read some very ageist comments here (and look at the men are only 40 years old) and I only confirmed that many people are prejudiced against the elderly, believing that after a certain age people cannot, love, suffer for a breakup, go to a concert, vibrate with your idol, eat popcorn at the cinema or sing karaoke with your colleagues.
For some people, when you pass your 40s or sometimes even your 30s, you can only work, give money to the younger ones and die.
I can only feel sorry, because I'm sure that when these people reach that age, they will realize that they still have a lot of life inside them to spend their time only with work.

ES is a brat who wants her sex toy and it doesn't matter the consequences. BD is reckless and stupid but she does…
BD is an entrepreneur (dealing with global business and people on a daily basis) and a woman in her late 40s. Believing that she "doesn't realize the consequences of what she does" is simply believing that she is still 10 years old, which we know to be untrue. Also because the flashbacks showed that she was a smart girl in high school and not only did what she wanted but also influenced other people.
BD and EK have similar feelings for different reasons. The two simply "don't care" about anyone. One because she sees herself as the only important being in her world and needs everything to remain the same, while the other is precisely because she has nothing to lose and if her world is destroyed, it will also be a gain.
So this battle is about who has everything to lose and who has nothing to lose.
Try Crash course in romance. It's also a good surprise 👍
I'm also really enjoying this drama. It tackles complex issues in a lighter way so you can better understand this whole competitive world and the pressure parents have for their children's future.
The characters are also very good and the protagonist's somewhat unusual family is charming.
we had already forgotten that idiot Tae Ki why bring him back ffs. He literally adds nothing. I'd prefer if he…
The only time this character was needed in the drama was when he was exposed at the wedding. Other than that, he's completely unnecessary and obnoxious, and I'm kind of annoyed that he's back. But let's see what will happen.
I think the biggest problem is that we think EK is better for CW than BD since BD doesn't seem like she really…
There is even a term for it (I don't know if it has the same name in the United States, because I'm in Brazil), which is called "AMA - Women who love too much". This shows that when love and reason are not in balance, one swallows the other.
For example, BD in relation to her husband is very "reasonable" and that's why she does what she wants without thinking too much about what he might suffer from it. EK, on the other hand, was accumulating the desire in order to think that he would be "her savior", a person who could take her out of that "shitty life" that she has. So the feeling that could have existed in the past was transformed into something so great that she no longer thinks. As much as we think she is plotting and being strategic, her ideas are not so normal, so much so that many realize what she does. Things only got to that level, because BD is so rational in this relationship, that she found it more advantageous to have EK as the person who took care of what was not a priority for her (day-to-day activities with her husband and daughter). However, if she had a little more feeling, she wouldn't just look at the fact of "taking advantage of her colleague" and realize what was going on.
This drama shows that a lot. All relationships (whether husband and wife, friendship, parents and children), without exception, are in perfect disequilibrium.
Does the evil laugh like she win some prize cause Bada husband run towards EK ...
I think the biggest problem is that we think EK is better for CW than BD since BD doesn't seem like she really loves her husband. In fact, I have my doubts that she really loves her own daughter.
I don’t think the ML was being truthful about his reasons for the divorce at all. It definitely goes much deeper…
After a few years watching dramas, I realized that something common (I don't know if it's cultural) is that people tend to make decisions in their relationship without asking the other. How many times does a person break up because they are sick, without money or because they believe that the other will be happier and have a more peaceful life if they marry the "secondary" character? This always annoys me, as I believe that transparent communication is the basis of any relationship, but if this is the script, I will understand that it is just another story like any other in drama. This actor even played a character in "Encounter", where he also lies about cheating so that the protagonist who was going to marry him gives up. He did it because he knew that his mother would make the girl's life hell, so he preferred to end it even though he liked her. Koreans understand this as "proof of love", but I understand it only as selfishness.
ML and FL were in a phase of discovering each other see if they could date. The FL suddenly became stubborn, sulky…
That is true. I always say I won't watch it because I know the ending, but when it comes out I'm there with my eyes fixed on the screen to see how the drama will progress.
As for SFL, I can't even stand it anymore when it appears on screen. Very boring.
ML and FL were in a phase of discovering each other see if they could date. The FL suddenly became stubborn, sulky…
In this case, my opinion is closer to OneAjhussi's opinion. The way she behaved on the first date was extremely childish and selfish. He said one thing right when she questioned him: "so what if for a moment I hesitated?".
And that's right. So what if he hesitated for a moment? He went to the meeting, and that should matter. About hesitation, there are several reasons that are very difficult for you to describe to the other person. He didn't keep her waiting. He showed up, but because it wasn't "exactly how she wanted it" he ended up acting like an idiot the entire encounter.
In reality what it seems is that she does not want to feel "inferior" in the relationship. The fact that ML hesitated made her think that she likes him more than he likes her (which is not true), and she didn't want to risk being vulnerable. Then, she decided to throw herself into a relationship with someone she sympathizes with, feels sorry for and is sure loves her. The whole problem is that the other, as much as he may have given the impression of liking her, also felt vulnerable in having her almost like a mother, and will do the same as her, throwing himself into the arms of another person who has shown interest in him.
That's what this drama is about: people who try to be content with just being the person they love or the person they love in a relationship, because what you can tell is that nobody has a reciprocal relationship, which sucks.
Why go back? It didn't work out, in the first reunion scenes no trace of feelings was shown and I believe that everything was very well resolved between the two.
