Huh? YM and DW are not related. They are just inlaws, them having kids would be no problem either way.

For me shithead being adopted only solves absolutely nothing, bc so is TK. Even if his claim ain't that strong anymore, this asshole still is part of the family thru adoption. It is, as said, a narrative dead end and has been for four-five eps now. It is exhausting to run in circles for so long, tbh.

Only way to get out of this mess completely would be now the TK bio dad twist, but with this writer? lmao, nope not gonna happen. Instead we are going to see a custody battle till eps 50 and ten minutes before the end since this dumbass loves making everyone miserable, especially the viewers.

You can soon watch him for 50 eps as ML in the upcoming family drama Hyosim's Independent Life, tho :D

her frustration with language learning and joy to finally understand something, aka coming to the point where the new language is starting to make sense is so relatable for me as a korean learner hahaha

It is a good thing Ye Bun is bound to become Jang Yeol's gf down the line with how much he has to invest in her hands hahaha. Gurl is robbing him blind 😂 It cracks me up how this upgrades her power tho ngl

Yes, Of this incoherent, rambly nonsense show running in a hamster wheel in particular bc nothing ever happens and everything is the same it was like 10 eps ago with only four eps to go and no resolution in sight. A dead end in kdrama form, be it in regards of it story, characters, relationships. All of it. Nothing makes sense, all what has been done in there matters not at all and joy is dead. Where misery is used for the sake of misery, without rhyme or reason. A circular clown show with the worst pacing and writing i have ever had the misfortune to invest too much of my time in.

hmm yeah thought so, thanks tho <3

Oh i know it is on KBS 1, but i meant the OTT. No kocowa for me as european, so i guess i can only hope for the kbs youtube channel or that alternative pages upload it timely.

If they are on kocowa, it explains tho why basically all weekenders (except a few) and daily dramas are not available in my region then on viki, welp

Looks fun, and i hope it stays fun too, bc as we know first impressions are deceiving and shows of that kind often deteriorating. Will give it a try tho.

Any words on where it will be streamed? Or do i have to go 🏴‍☠️ for this? Heh.

Here is a good recap/summary of the trailer with some more insight into the characters:

Yep. Sadly only in three weeks. I am so done with TRHC. In all regards.

Not taking that away from you but for me it was one of the worst with a singular amusing scene. Like the all the eps we got after their marriage reg because nothing has happened since then plot-wise. At all. We are running in a goddamn hamster wheel.

A good scene of two-three minutes sandwiched into repetitive incoherent nonsense does not save a mediocre, abysmally written show tho.

Nothing has changed, nothing got resolved or moved forward. Don't let one mildly entertaining scene fool you into thinking so.

THANK YOU. Could not said it better. From the BTS you see how lively BJH is so she strikes me as someone definitely feeling more at home with the YD we had before writers and pd turned her into a zombie husk of herself. Plus she is very comfortable with AJH in the bts, but you don't see much of it in the actual scenes. Which again the blame is all up to directions/script given to the actors, then.

it cant be over soon enough atp, tbh

i have not even watched the subbed episode bc i feel like i am in a hamster wheel running round and round and round and round and round and round the same bullshit with nothing ever being remotely resolved and actors parroting the same lines on the same fucking issue each week like it is groundhog day. Watching this feels like a running a marathon by now, but one where you are glued to the ground so you are getting absolutely NOWHERE.

I am tired. Throw a big fat boulder on everyone to end their and our suffering. Just make it eeeeeeend.

what did it fix? NOTHING HAPPENED. AT ALL. The plot has not moved one bit for ten -fifteen episodes now. And this whole rotten fruit nonsense is also already dragging on for five eps. I am tired of this circular bullshit.

the happiest. All is so so well wrapped up for every character. Super satisfying <3

i knoooooow it really annoyed me too for a while, but i promise they do get better later on. It takes a divorce and separation to get there tho. Later on they have a really healthy dynamic with good communication of their feelings and thoughts.

I wonder how much of it is adlibbed by AJH because his fellow actors in the scene seem genuinely laughing/amused there, and the hug with YM's actress feels quite spontaneous too heh

Funny you say that, because drunk leads, wrong hotel room would actually be the most logical conclusion now and the only way out of this mess that would literally break this circle we are running around and around and around and around in for over 10 eps now. But I doubt the writer will ever go there, even with what under normal circumstances could have been seen as foreshadowing. Like just yesterday the asshole's insistence on being her "father" again and again, how much she takes after him (when Haneul/Sol looks like a copy of TK/AJH in features, face structure etc instead) how he would never approve an adoption or give up which is normally a surefire way for impending death or plot twist to happen to clear the way. And then of course there is the dna test where maternity is tested, but you have "probability of paternity" written in the box next to the "not matched") but with this dumbass writer? Nah less than zero trust or confidence in any coherence or good things still to follow. This would be literally the only thing that would salvage the drama to a minor point for me and the fitting reward for all of TKs suffering endured, but i don't believe to see it happening any longer.

And it seems the actors agree lol with everyone being tired af. But we cannot discard the brutal filming schedule of a weekender too with very likely little sleep to be had for all the ppl working on it. Plus it is also a difference if you are acting in the ending episodes of lets say.... Once Again where everything is resolved and you just have a jolly good, easygoing time with your fellow actors joking around, have some fluffy scenes etc, or like in here are required to shoot emotionally draining, wangsty scenes without ever getting a break in between with some levity, bc the episodes and script are pure melodramatic misery nonsense till the bitter end. So yeah, no wonder everyone of them looks and acts as if they need 48 hours naps. I would too, lol.
