If you plan to watch for the romance i don't think you should start now, but the plot is pretty good and i think its thrilling enough to make you forget about the romance aspect since the fl doesnt have much screentime anyways...I will also post a detailed summary on their interactions till now and you can decide for yourself :)

In the beginning the secretary was jealous of the ml and tried to sabotage him but it was also because of ml's past and he was afraid that it would affect Shen tunan, but once shen tunan realizes this he starts to comfort the secretary by saying that his role is just as important and they all become one unit instead of conspiring against each other (So far)

as of now (ep 12) they have very minimal interactions, they do cross paths with one another but its usually to ask each other for favors and they don't actually have any conversations about anything other than work

yep she also kept worrying about what would happen to him once they took over the corporation and even when she called him dumb it seemed to me like she was fond of him rather than hating him

That seems very unlikely though, although maybe he could have sacrificed his life for her( but idt her disease can be cured by a transplant so theres a rare possibility of him sacrificing his life for her in that sense) , but i think its more likely that they both die together rather than him dying alone

that seems likely but you never know sometimes the writers like to trick the viewers into thinking its a happy ending and towards the end it suddenly becomes tragic (idk if im overthinking but all the signs i mentioned seem like foreshadowing)

ohh, what was it called?

no i believe the goal was that she would plant the boar and the 2ml would come save her heroically which would make hae-in fall for him and also in order to make the grandfather more reliant on the shaman who "predicted" the event.

I think that its likely that the two will be really close but its not yet clear whether they will actually have any romantic relationship (meaningful gazes between one another, romantic line delivery and everything but no actual relationship) because this seems like a plot heavy serious political drama rather than a romantic one

i think he got too comfortable after achieving everything he wanted lmao

soo-chul's wife is the reverse (female) version of HW because she approached soo-chul for money first and then fell in love (even though she herself doesnt know it) and i honestly don't hate her much anymore,

this is actually the first chaebol drama where i dont hate anyone in the chaebol side of the family

i see so many signs for a sad ending
- her aunt's friend died from a relapse
- her life line was short and although HW extended it, it was using a pen which maybe signifies that it was temporary?
- the four leaf clover ensures luck only for a year
- she keeps talking about her funeral and i feel like if she does end up dying we will have many scenes of HW breaking down while thinking of her (those moments and the things she said)

i also feel like even if she miraculously survives she will likely have a son who she will name after her older brother

moon lovers also had that ending

i dont see any specific romantic scenes in the ending or trailers so i think that it will either be platonic or unrequited

he had no way to...the only information he had regarding his brother were his last words and what li shengda said so why li shengda suddenly brought up the riddle he was supposed to exchange with his brother's friend, the only conclusion he could form that he was the friend and although he noticed the guilty gaze he had no way to test if it was true until the bookstore event

clearly he acts that way because of the life he lived, if you watched the drama seriously you would realize that he was not only poverty stricken but also frequently suspected to be a communist because of where he was from and in addition he had to work for gangsters which was extremely dangerous as one wrong word could end his life, which in turn led to his timid attitude as a form of self defense. in contrast the fl has lived a fairly good life (as far as we have seen) she received higher education in germany and belongs to an affluent family so she is bound to be more confident she is also fighting for a cause she strongly believes in whereas the ml is just normal guy who is trapped in a situation he has no control over

one thing i really like about this show is that they don't change her personality at all, she's always seen as hot tempered, authoritative, and cold but what changes is how the audience sees her after the povs change...I'm also really confused about why her biological mother hates her so much (is it something to do with her older brother's death?)...The 2ml is also really unlikable and as of now theres no 2fl which makes me optimistic for a happy ending but i'm still so worried that there will be a sad ending or open ending

but she only has 3 months left to live, how would she give birth in that time frame though?

are you saying that acting skills don't define a drama? well i beg to differ, the cast can definitely make or break the drama, if the acting skills are good even a mediocre script can be brought to life whereas even the best script can be ruined by bad acting...Besides this is a rom-com so im pretty sure that kissing skills do play a part (if the actors don't look like they are enjoying it it makes it very uncomfortable to watch). There are many other dramas that tackle mental health which were done better and in the kdrama world dramas dealing with depression are not unique

ig its because they dated for a short time and did not fully understand each others personality before getting married
