2nd season goes full "webtoon" fictional mode which degrades all brutality

I liked the first season. It was dynamic and brutal.
The second season was a complete garbage in comparison. I was waiting and waiting for the same action from the 1st season... but it was never delivered.
My biggest disappointment was how much more unrealistic it became. And when it is so unrealistic - it degrades and diminishes all brutality. What do I mean by that? I mean that if you see how someone hits other person's jaw with a metal knuckle many times with a full force and that jaw remains intact - where is brutality then? Or if someone hits an opponent many times with a metal knuckle into leg bone and then that opponents makes a strong kick by that lag - it is ridiculous. Is it a parody now? In the 1st season if objects were used in fight they caused injuries and it made it brutal. The second season lacks this - now it is a parody show.

ML is also a complete disappointment. The entire season he speaks as a slowpoke. According to authors it should represent mental trauma, but this shit gets annoying/irritating over time.

In the send I skipped the huge parts of it. For me the show was a complete disappointment because I expected something like season1, but got some weak parody of it.

good start and total disappointment after few first episodes

honestly, it was promising. I rated it 8,5 at first. But then all this "brothers" twist - it is so unnecessary and pointless. Then other plot moves are also just plain ridiculous. Tell me who would announce in the office lobby in front of everyone that main leads divorced without saying it to FL first? To me it is so stupid that I want to drop it. It is an insult to my sanity.
Second leads - why are they needed at all? to fill time in order to get 16 episodes? absolute waste of time. skipped all parts with them

Don't watch it - watch original chinese version. It is better in every aspect

If you didn't watch neither chinese nor korean version - watch chinese.
It is better in all ways:
1. Cast in chinese version is much better . FL in chinese version is 10x times better.
2. Plot details in chinese version are better.
3. Plot pace i chinese version is better.
There is simply no reason to watch this worse version.

Good chemistry. Things look natural and believable

I think this drama deserves a higher rating - at least 8,5 according to MDL standards.
Chemistry between the leads is very good.
Leads bahave regional and there is no obviously stupid plot moves.
All characters are relevant and play their role.
All characters are complex and have understandable motives. I felt involved.

This is one of the very few dramas which I watched two times.
Recommend it to all romance lovers.

And here I am adding some irrelevant text because MDL has a stupid rule of 500 chars in review

You need to have a really low standards or be a 13 years old girl to like it.

I honestly tried to finish it, but I couldn't: every 15min something so stupid or cringe happened that I closed my laptop. It didn't evoke emotions which I usually feel when watching romance genre - everything seemed so unnatural and far-fetched that it was hard to sympathize with the main characters.
FL is annoying and extremely stupid. She makes illogical things all the time and continues sending contradicting signals to ML.
ML is confused by this and cannot pull his shit together to tell her what he feels towards FL.

I gave it a score 1.0 just to counterbalance tons of schoolgirls (the target audience of this show) who gave it 10 in order to save you from wasting time. Otherwise it is a solid 5.0! There are so many better shows than this...
