Hime

Huh? What do you mean? She is the one who cannot remember things. He remembers EVERYTHING. I also wanted to believe it was her at first, somehow, but it does not seem like that is the direction this is taking. It seems like she was her best friend and that is why she says the same things as her but without remembering where she got them from. Also, I dont think his first love killed herself, I think she was either murdered or accidentally fell while having an argument with someone (possibly the female lead). The way she fell is not consistent with a suicide. I guess we will be given more clues to what happened in the next episodes.

Yeah. Same.

Ok, so where do I start? Maybe by saying this is one of the few work centered chinese dramas that I have fully enjoyed. This is just on another level compared to all the other chinese dramas with a similar setting. I did not mind at all how it took the main leads so long to get together because I thought it just felt more natural that way. I do wish I saw more of them as a couple tho cause they were so cute together. I do have a few things that bothered me:

1st - How they portrayed a foreign country to be super violent like China is the safest place on Earth. I mean, they just got to Australia and the male lead already has a gun pointed to his head. And then just like 1 day later they go out for lunch on a fancy restaurant and it just so happens to be robbed. Like, really? And then what the female lead said before they left made it seem like they were trying to promote their own country as being a lot safer than any other country. Yeah, right. We all know how that works.

2nd - Pei Yu and Bonnie are 2 women you would never want as your girlfriend/wife. One clearly did not get over her ex and keeps bothering him when she is legit about to get married to someone else. Why would you accept to marry someone and then keep trying to get back to your ex? And the other is as loyal as my pet snake. I dont have a pet snake. I am sorry, I know she is the female lead’s bestie but Idc. The female lead should not have said she was easy, but in fact we all know that was the truth. I did not feel even a bit sorry with the ending she got. She deserved it. It was an opportunity for her to do some self-reflection.

3rd - Why did it end? A few more episodes would not hurt. I would have liked some extra scenes like the main leads getting married. Oh well, everything that is good has to come to an end. T T

There were other things that bothered me but these were the ones I could think about right now. And I also want to keep it as short as possible. That is if you can call this short. LOL

Ikr? That was a big thing for me. Her personality went from 80 to 8 in a second. There was no consistency.

I think thai people like these kind of dramas because it is the reality they see. Thailand still allows men to have several wives and it is one of the countries with the highest infidelity rate. Even in dramas we can see that. Almost every drama if not every drama has at least one character that is cheating, most likely a man that is cheating on his wife or girlfriend. Sometimes that character is even the male lead. Ewwww

How many episodes did you watch? Because her character is intended to be this way at first.

They both have faults and by working together they learn to improve themselves by looking at each others example. She is too trusting of people and I guess a little immature because of the way she was raised and how she was thrown into the business world and having to be in a position of responsibility when she was not ready for it.

He is very professional and competent but is cold and ignores how his job negatively impacts innocent people and helps the bad guys get away with stuff. At heart he is not a bad person, but he does not let his conscience and feelings interfere at all with his job and that is taking a toll on him. As they work together we see character development for both as each one complements for what the other lacks.

Their partnership is one of the main reasons I have stuck with this drama. I think the name "Perfect Partner" describes this drama very well.

Well, to my defense I wrote that comment 10 days ago, before the new episodes came out.

I had written a lengthy comment explaining everything but the browser closed and I lost everything so I will keep it shorter, as if thats possible. Lol

About your first point, Min Jung could have been cleaning up and the diary fell and she saw what was written there. But this is just a guess. I just know that something did happen for her to change her behavior in the past months.

About him feeling guilty, that does not necessarily means he loves her. It does prove he cares for her to some extent and does not want to see her get hurt, which he knows will happen if he was to get back with Yu Ri. He knows he cant just go to her and say: hey, you know what, my dead wife is back so can we divorce and can you move out so she can move in? Yu Ri is also not pushing for anything cause she knows she will have to leave eventually and does not want to ruin his life. I am pretty sure if she wanted to get back together, the male lead would have already pulled Min Jung aside and told her he wants a divorce. The only thing stopping him from getting back to Yu Ri is Yu Ri herself.

And finally, I was surprised that Seo Woo was talking, but not that she said that. I mean, Yu Ri was never her mother to her. She was raised by her father and the first mother figure she knew was Min Jung. As much as she feels a strong connection to Yu Ri, at the end of the day, the woman who she calls mother, who she lives with, who cooks for her, who gets her dressed, who takes her to places, and so on is Min Jung. So it is natural for her to feel that way. That scene was bittersweet for me. On one side I was happy that she was talking and that Min Jung could hear those words cause she really needed them. But at the same time Yu Ri, her real mother, just had to hear her own daughter saying she loves someone else more than her. So I bet that hurt.

But anyway, my views changed a little with the most recent episodes. I am now shipping Yu Ri with the pilot. LOL
Just cause that way everyone would be happy and she could still see her daughter without having to get in between their marriage. It is a much better ending than her leaving. Please, let her and the pilot find comfort in each other, they are both so lonely. I mean, his entire family died on the same day and she cannot go back to hers cause she is supposed to be dead, so just let them be happy together. I know I am dreaming and this ship probably wont sail but at least I can be on a better mood while watching it. That is until the writers decide to sink the ship and we all have to say bye bye to Yu Ri. T T

Lol, You sure do have different opinions from others but it seems we are always in sync. Lately you are everywhere I leave a comment and always agreeing with what I say. I guess we have a similar taste for dramas.

Yeah, the most I had was 11 because mother and daughter got pregnant around the same time (the daughter gave birth 2 weeks later than the mother) and both had 4 kittens each. We also have another cat. Originally we had 3 adult cats, the mother and her son and daughter. With the kittens, in total we had 11 cats for the period of 2-3 months. We gave away most of them and only 2 kittens stayed, one from the mother and the other from the daughter, so technically the kittens were only 2 weeks apart but one was the aunt and the other the niece. Lol

Unfortunately the daughter ended up leaving because she was a little bit anti-social and I guess she did not like a house full of cats. So right now we have 4 cats. My favorite cat is one of the kittens that is now an adult. She looks like a cow cause she is all white with black spots and she is very obedient and sweet. She follows me everywhere I go and always sits next to me while Im cooking, probably hoping food will fall down so she can eat it. She even follows me when I go to use the toilet and since when I close the door she cant see me anymore, she starts desperately meowing. XD

I think my love for cats was pretty obvious throughout this comment. LOL

Yeah. That and faking allergy to cat fur making her give away her cat just cause his mama does not like ladies with cats. Cats are my favorite animals, I have 4 at the moment, and they are like family. And she lives alone and kind of has a social phobia so making her give away the cat just to please his mother was too selfish.

Ok, so I am up to ep 6 and I now understand what is going on. I started being suspicious way before and the whole thing when the dog went missing on ep 5 made me even more certain she was two-faced. In this case the female lead did not ruin their relationship but instead saved him from being hurt even more in the future.

Phew, I can now enjoy the development of their relationship without feeling guilty. I do feel bad for the other guy tho, he seems to really like her.

Yeah, I kind of dont like that tho. I mean, they live together so it must be a pretty serious relationship. I dont like seeing a perfectly good relationship being ruined just so the main leads can get together. Unless their relationship is not that good but so far it looks to me like they love each other. They sleep together, he kissed her in the morning, she took his coat off when he got home and had dinner ready for him, she kissed his cheek as a consolation prize since there was no fish for dinner. I mean, they are pretty much a married couple. How is the female lead going to fit into that?

This is only from watching the 1st episode so maybe there are things I am not aware of but I will not be able to enjoy the main leads romance if it starts the wrong way. So hopefully he will separate from his girlfriend/wife in a way I can accept.

Lol
You never know.

I am just like you but this one is definitely not that kind of drama. I am glad I started watching it right when the first 2 eps came out and I keep watching it on a weekly basis. This is probably very different from the dramas you are used to. This is like a break from all the crazy dramas out there. It is very relaxing to watch and you almost feel like you are living in that town with them.

Give it a try. Watch like 2 eps today and 2 more a few days later and then the other 2 until you catch up with it and then keep watching as they air. As a binge watcher myself, just like you, I think this is the best way to watch this drama.

I would say to pick it up right now because this is best when watched on a weekly basis and you are already 6 episodes behind. This is not really the kind of drama you binge-watch. It is the kind of drama that takes away all your stress, be it from real life or from all the frustrating and melodramatic dramas you have watched recently. Watching this drama is like sitting down to enjoy a cup of tea while reading a book after a stressful day at work.

Maybe it will be your cup of tea, maybe it wont. But I think you should not wait any longer to give it a try.

I really fell for Young Woo on episode 6. Sad that he only has a guest role. In only 1 episode he managed to make me re-think who I wanted the female lead to end up with.

This drama is definitely not for everyone and I am glad I am watching it on a weekly basis as I would probably skip a lot if I tried to binge-watch it. I am currently in a state of mind where this drama is very relatable to me. This is like a break from the roller-coaster dramas I am watching.

I am trying to think about something positive to say about this drama, but nothing comes to mind. The first 3 episodes or so were ok although I cringed at the main characters English but from then on it became a boring, cliché and annoying ride. I skipped A LOT, entire episodes even. The plot was pretty boring and cliché and they revealed to us viewers important plot points way too early. The romance had a few cute scenes here and there but it was mostly bad. I actually thought the female lead had more chemistry with the second male lead than with the male lead. The ending was as boring as the rest of the drama and with all the usual clichés.

Really, there is nothing remarkable about this drama. In fact, I would dare to say this is BELOW average.

That is the most obvious path so I hope they will do something different. There is still enough time to build up to several different endings. Hopefully it will be a happy ending, although it seems to be going towards a bittersweet one.

Yeah, but what it her place? Maybe her place is being together with her family - parents and sister. The moment her husband remarried that place was not hers anymore. So who knows, maybe things will take an unexpected turn. We are halfway through so anything can happen.

Yeah. The first 2 episodes or so managed to capture my attention then it started to feel too creepy. Even from a comedic point of view, this is too much. They turned serious issues like being mentally unstable and seeing violence as something desirable and stalking into something that is not that serious. I will keep watching just cause the episodes are short and I dont like leaving things unfinished but this is not funny enough to make up for the bad messages it sends.

Not that great to be honest. I liked the main leads interactions but that was about it. The plot itself and most of the supporting characters were below average in terms of entertainment.
