Wasn’t episode 13 supposed to air tomorrow (Tuesday)?
I mean, I am not complaining, I am just worried it aired a day earlier because there is something else airing during its slot for the next few days and we will only get 1 episode this week.
This is ok if you have nothing better to watch but it does not really stand out. The story is mostly focused on their work in the hotel, but even that was made pretty boring, and the last episodes were a back and forth with the main leads. Like I said, watch if you are out of things to watch, otherwise you might not want to waste your time on this one.
- The friend and friend’s mother that saved the female lead and that in any other drama would have turned on…
I think they are the 3rd and 4th actors added in the cast above. I can barely remember why I even like them. I have legit watched hundreds of other dramas since then. XD
They just released a preview..https://youtu.be/L6SlaVH9M0c
It says that the video is not available. Maybe it is a country block thing. Anyway, thank you. I think I will just wait for next week’s episodes. If I watched the preview right now I might have felt even more impatient. lol
If you have Netflix, at least in my country, this drama is available there. If you really want the link, it is below, but the quality is not the best and it was posted 3 years ago so it might be deleted at any time.
I still think it would have been more interesting if she had actually become her stepmother and lived with them…
Yeah, most likely. I never fell for it tho. I knew she was not the killer since the strength which he was stabbed with made it only possible for it to be a man or a very strong woman. Also, she is not the type to get her hands dirty. But I had no doubt the entire time that she knew who the killer was and most likely had hired him. Turns out the person she hired was not the one to actually kill him, but she was still involved. I am pretty sure most of us never doubted that she was behind the murder, no matter what the writers threw our way.

I agree with the last part. That was completely unnecessary and very cliché. The talk they had in jail felt very convenient to wrap up things but I personally did not buy it. Also, her son became a murderer because he knew his mother had ordered someone to do it and he just went ahead and took matters into his own hands. He probably hated the guy since he beat him up really well and technically "stole" his mother.
That said, the female lead had nothing to do with it and I still feel the hatred was not justified. She could have just got rid of her like she did with other people, but would rather have her alive and suffering which made me believe there was a hidden reason why she hated her so much. And for me, after everything was revealed, that reason just didnt exist. And all that hatred just did not make sense to me.

The thing is, the female lead did not want anything to do with that. She just wanted to put her life together and be her daughter’s stepmother. And even if that was the case, at most the female lead and the granddaughter were an inconvenience that she wanted to get rid of. But the writers tried to sell that Kim Ho Ran really hated the female lead like she had ever done something to her, which was not the case.
Also, she was interfering with the female lead’s life even before she found out that her daughter was alive. At that point the female lead was not a threat in any way. It was like she did not want the female lead to be happy and just live a miserable life. That for me seems like unfounded hatred. I knew pretty early that she was the one who ordered the murder and to blame her daughter-in-law and that the victim was probably not her son. So the entire time I was waiting for the writers to give us a good reason why she hated the female lead so much, and I felt that never happened. But this is just my opinion, maybe other people felt everything was wrapped up flawlessly.
I still think it would have been more interesting if she had actually become her stepmother and lived with them for some time before the cat was out of the bag. I did not like how Kim Ho Ran had control over almost everything up until the last 2 episodes when things started falling apart for her. Also, I get why she wanted the female lead to become the murderer and keep it that way, but why did they make it look like she had a personal hatred for her and did not want to see her happy? Like, she got what she wanted, the female lead was blamed for the murder and served the sentence. So why keep bothering her all the time, its not like her re-marrying or being with her kid would affect her or her son in any way?? That part for me made her "hatred" baseless. Its not like it was the female lead that made her stepson turn to drugs and become violent, so really, there is no valid reason for her to hate the female lead so much that she has to torment her even after she is out of jail.
The way you said it I thought she was still in high school. She's 19, and that makes her old enough. When I was…
In my country you are considered an adult at 18, she is 19. A teenager is usually someone between the ages of 12 and 17. Of course this varies depending on the country you live in.
The idea is good, the drama is good but I felt it could have been better. There is just something about Taiwanese dramas, they always drag. I felt like the novel world thing ended too early and the episodes after that were mostly boring to watch. Maybe they should have left all that for like the last 2 episodes so it would not feel as draggy. But overall it was a good drama.
Lol, never in my life would I think I'd ever see someone reference pimba music to a kdrama! But it's totally spot…
Yeah, believe me, you were not the only one to be annoyed by that. I am sure there are still some people out there breaking their devices after watching that scene. lol
why is this drama receiving so much criticism? its really not bad at all
I think it depends on a lot of factors like how long you have been watching dramas or if you had any expectations before starting the drama, and so on. I know this drama had a lot of hype so many people may have been disappointed when the story did not deliver what they expected.
In my case, I have been watching dramas for about a decade, and this kind of plot is not good enough for my standards so I dropped it. When you have been watching dramas for a long time, you get picky and what might seem like a pretty good drama for someone who just started watching dramas, to you it feels like an average or even below average drama.
Yeah, if you have been watching dramas for a long time, this just wont do it for you.
I am not a huge fan of slice of life but I can think of at least 2 kdramas of this genre that I rated 9/10...and I rarely give 9 to dramas, usually a really good drama gets an 8 or an 8.5.
This one is so badly written that I just could not watch it until the end. And I am someone who hates dropping dramas. But this one really did not feel worth those extra hours that I could spend watching something else.
