And I thought I was the only one. It would've been perfect without the 2FL.

Agree with everything you said. I zone out whenever the drama focuses on the 2FL, or I just skip her scenes altogether. It would've been perfect without her storyline.

The latest episodes didn't disappoint at all! The playful exchange between the two, especially in the office is too entertaining!

I would argue that Gao Yi is more at fault, but the ml did have a role in the grand scheme of things.

I've been thinking about that eversince I saw her for the first time in another drama where she also played the rich girl character. I figured it's because she's not the cookie cutter Chinese beauty. She has this sexy, elegant, mature, and almost androgynous (sharp cheekbones and jawline) allure to her.

True, but I'm finding the business aspects more and more interesting now. I like how the fl and her uncle teamed up to get rid of the rats in the factory.

Yeah, there are so many idol dramas airing right now. The only thing I don't enjoy in this show is the SFL. For some reason, I'm not warming up to the actress. Probably, her performance pales in contrast to the FL.

People are sleeping on this. Great cinematography, uncliche storyline, great directing, and realistic performance by the female lead. Well, this is centered on the female lead's struggles in life instead of the romance, so maybe that's why.

He always has been a great actor, but this drama just perfectly displays his greatness. I wonder how close is his real personality to the character's?

On a serious note, I'm glad that I was right when I was trying to defend the leads perspectives in regards to the taboo subjects thats has been discussed in the show. Gil Chae has been nothing but persevering and strong, so I see her as a beautiful human being and not a "stained" one as other viewers have mentioned. That's why one of my top scenes of all time will be this beautiful part of episode 17's confession scene:

Gil Chae: Then, how about Gil Chae, who has been defiled by barbarians?

(Jang Hyun's reaction with his facial expressions here is just perfect. He couldn't have conveyed the same feelings with words alone.)

Jang Hyun: I must embrace her. Since she must have suffered.

Me: (Throws pillow. Hugs self with arms full of goosebumps.)

How can any fiction or nonfiction man top that perfect confession right there?

The ending of episode 17 is the most romantic scene I've ever seen. All hope is lost for finding a good man since the standard is Jang Hyun-level now lol.

Well, the ones with good and unique storylines like this always get the bad ratings here anyway. The trophy ones have the most viewers as always.

I saw those! Yeah, I don't even care for the new idol Cdramas right now since I'm focused on this haha.

I thought having this drama everyday is more than enough, but after episode 14's ending, I need all the episodes NOW lol.

That's true that she did dress up more formally during that meeting, but it feels like a 360 degree change still.

Who will believe Eita is in his 40s when watching this? His character is such a scene stealer. This definitely cleanses my bad memory of his previous drama lol.

Rising with the Wind is highly recommended.

This drama is so intriguing. I love watching the female lead grow along with her business. She became a real business owner when she started humbling herself for the sake of the company. Elaine Zhong definitely showed the character's realistic growth during the scenes where the prideful JH's timidly started collecting money from her father's friends. And in episode 11, you could see how far she has come when she went to the beach with XS to market her company with such confidence and persistence.

I've been curious if there's any logical reasoning behind JH's drastic fashion transformation. I mean there are a lot of options for affordable business casual or fashionable outfits. I wonder why she chooses athletic wear? I mean yes, she's running around everywhere, but she's still a business owner representing her brand.

Yeah, I just miss the powerful and fashionable outfits she had when she was rich.

Oh, I know those ones too. But their own band song, the first song they played in the concert, was a lot like the song I mentioned.
