How is the romance?

I am familiar with melo, it can be one of my favorite genres. Being a melodrama doesn't require endless slow motion conversations, stares and brooding, and a plot with no tension or backbone. Leads have already both liked each other practically from the beginning, all we have between them is an annoying mother and ex who aren't even really much of an issue.

This show keeps getting more and more boring. Nothing is happening. Nothing moving the plot forward. Episode 9 was painfully slow. I don't feel the chemistry between the leads, not sure why. The only reason I'm still watching is for 2ml.

It's okay. Very slow but yes romance. Mostly just brooding though. Love triangle, not really but there's an ex who won't leave him alone

It's up to you, I thought the first 2 episodes were better so if you don't like it already it might not be for you.

I'm also so confused does he like FL or her sister? I could have sworn they were setting it up for her sister and him to end up together but he seems to have feelings for FL

I agree. Like nothing is really happening and scenes are very slow, not much tension between leads they both already like each other and have for several episodes. His mother is the only thing standing between them but eh. FL is already pretty much over it when it comes to him. But at the same time, I want to see what happens especially with 2nd couple

This is melo done right <3 LOVED everything about it, it's a masterpiece and work of art, except the writing went a bit off the rails toward the end. Plot ended up being sidetracked by aunt's storyline and they deserved a more satisfying ending.

First two episodes I loved but now it's kind of boring me. Melos can be my favorite genre but especially lately they have been getting slower it seems. I was under the impression this would be more revenge/enemies to lovers based but basically it's just her feeling too soft toward him to take any kind of revenge and instead wallowing in emotions every episode. Not really feeling their chemistry either, but interested in second couple.

I absolutely looooveeeddd this the first few episodes. Their banter and teasing...they had amazing chemistry. Then things changed and their teasing turned into him being legitimately mean to her, and the melodrama set in. I don't have a problem with melo, it's one of my favorite genres, but I thought this would have worked so much better staying more romcom for the most part. I missed the fun chemistry they had at the beginning.

I don't get why the skin darkening was even necessary. And FL's makeup is whitewashed and too light for her natural skin tone. Like what are they trying to convey here?

I hope he doesn't accept. Not a good director

Not the only one. I was disappointed, found it mediocre at best.

I couldn't believe she not only cheated on him for a year but had the audacity get ENGAGED to the man she was having an affair with during that time too...and then told that to him... Ughhh

Honestly you're missing out, the first episode didn't hook me either but certainly by episode 5 it became my favorite drama of all time.

Is this ever going to get rated? This is the longest I've ever seen a rating take

I agree it was very boring. I think this last year has been a huge kdrama drought and people are just desperate for shows to love.

I've been wondering where the rating is. It's taking a long time

Agreed

He definitely has range. The other characters I've seen him play have been complete opposites of this.
