Also I find a couple of things weird -
Go seyeon talking about her details of her death so casually every time and
The random romance popping up in most unexpected situations 😂 , but I am still enjoying it lol

First 2 episodes were alright, not that great ,and I dropped it, but it gets BETTER AND BETTER from ep 3 so, keep watching it guys !

I want to watch it for Kwak shi yang coz I loved him in cafe minamdang, and other two leads are nice too. But I am confused by mixed reviews

Hi. I assume you want no extended drama and misunderstanding when you say straightforward dramas.
Idk if you have watched them or not but
CRASH COURSE IN ROMANCE , MAD FOR EACH OTHER , JUGGLERS

There are few historical kdramas too, which are great.
SECRET ROMANTIC GUESTHOUSE, MY SASSY GIRL

there is Secret Royal Agent , one with Taecyeon and one with Kim Myungsoo. Both are hilarious ,

Idk if you have watched it already, but THE LIES WITHIN is an amazing thriller !!! It has the SML from this drama.

Se Yeon has no feelings for Cha min for years and years ( nothing has been shown in the drama yet) but suddenly she feels like kissing him because he has become handsome and all that....like she didn't see his years of love and interest in her but now she is being possessive....if the lovestory continues like this without showing any past scenes of where seyeon had some feelings for the old Chamin too......I will be disappointed

Nothing against Park Boyoung . The FL Seyeon character here....I am not sure about it...she is not too bad, daring , intelligent but.....when it comes to the love story, I am on ep 8 and ( will mark it as spoiler, nothing major thought, but....)

Omg ep 3 ending reminds me of cafe minamdang. It's actually a spoiler for that drama not abyss lol

How is Park Boyoung ugly .... I mean they could have added some sort of make up to make her look unappealing but she looks fantastic, so to believe that people consider her ugly in the drama is not working lol

Omg was not expecting that seo inguk cameo , was this the start of the "doom at your service" casting ???? ! I am bombarded with his content these days ( not complaining ) and oh wow,with kwon soohyun in it, it's like pre-cafe Minamdang haha

Oh I think you will like this drama then. The romance is not a love triangle ( I hate them too). I had SML syndrome because his character is a good person. He never tries to snatch the FL away and also continuously helps the ML to protect them both. The romance is not hampered by SML and actually their love is quite smooth sailing despite some odd situations. You can skip the politics part. And FL is a strong character, not a damsel in distress . Her interactions with ML's kid is super wholesome.

But yes , if you want to watch it purely for romance, you can skip it if you want. You can watch the ML and FL in "Good job" together instead. Oh and it's quite an old drama but there is another drama called 49 DAYS with this ML . I think it is underrated. It is a fantasy romance genre.

Ahhh no no romance is there. I do not like romance genre much , that is why I skipped the romantic parts. Unlike what other comments say, I think romance gets better in the 2nd half and they do get married and all that too. I had major SML syndrome haha. But if you want a romantic historical kdrama, try watching "secret romantic guesthouse " and "my queen" ( this one is purely romance).

So she and SML were childhood sweethearts but she ends up marrying his brother instead. So technically SML is FL 's brother in law and she never crossed that boundary after that. As for romance between FL and ML , it's gradual and after first 5 eps, they do start liking each other from the hate. The romance for me personally was not that good, but their bond was nice with side characters and politics and treason plot is superb , quite similar to the reality that happened in history

No , she doesn't really kiss or do anything with the 2nd ML but SML really stole the show for me. His character was amazing.

No hate but Go-Ara's expressions looks like she is constipated. I have only watched her in Ms Hammurabi and while I love that show , she had those same expressions but I thought it was just her character there. Now , as I am watching this ....nah, its just her.

I wanted more time kids with FL time in the last episode instead of that crying scene. And why did she break those glass shoes ........but overall, a good watch. So min was amazing and every actor was so in to their character.

Woah, I have never in my life watched any kdrama within a month of its release . I always watch it 2-3 years later 😂 and I just randomly decided to watch it not knowing how recent this is. I am starting this on 2nd July 2024, only 2 days after it got over. Wow. Storyline looks interesting.

Came here after "Show window - queen's house" and chansung is playing FL's brother here too....haha. Let's see if he plays a good guy or bad guy here.

I finished ep 13 and I GOT CHILLS ! I think I know who actually is the real culprit and such a trashy character omg wth
