There's one thing that I don't like in Cdramas that this show does, but not as much as other shows... so I'm still…
I dont like when the Rich/CEO/Boss ML falls in love with the FL because she does everything for him, fulfils all his emotional needs, cooks for him, cleans, serves him. That's not really love it's just convenient to have someone like that around. I feel like the FL falls into this a little when she's looking after him and protecting his identity, but it's much more tolerable in this show because he's at least also showing concern for her emotional needs early on and she just keeps buying him takeout haha. Also thank god she's not his assistant.

Does it cost money for them to add beauty filters to each character? I noticed a tendency in Cdramas to either only filter the two main leads or use a stronger filter on them than everyone else. I'm wondering if this is a budget concern or if they are trying to emphasise their beauty as the leads?

But that is also cruel to not do it himself. That just means she was not worth his time.
At first, I found the wording (at least on the Eng subs) a bit wishy washy and wasn't sure if he actually cheated but later on once or twice characters did specifically mention cheating. i *think* but am not sure, that with passing review cdramas can't be too explicit about things like cheating, as to be seen as encouraging it on tv is a big no-no.

I know but to me it feels like passing the buck to her when he was the problem. He was married then cheated, he paid for everything for them, took their sides and neglected his family. It feels like he only dumped her because she was no longer serving him but causing him issues. He's also still delulu about his business acumen but i'm only on ep 35

After all that, he doesn't even dump the mistress in person? He makes his assistant do it? He's learned nothing; he's just changing with the wind and whoever is good to him.

Somehow, in both fiction and real life, men with families will cheat on their wives and still manage to be self-righteous...

Question: In the last 5-ish years, the money they've put into Cdramas has increased, and the popularity is up, especially overseas. Do we think they will start doing remakes of older classic dramas? Like Gu Man's Boss & Me and My Sunshine?

We have episodes 25-36 to find a secret video game connection, lol. 😆

I paused watching at the end of ep18 to let more episodes come out. I like the show, but it's too slow burn to watch one ep at a time. Now that 24 is out, is it a good time to start watching again, or should I hold off longer?

Episode 18: I stand by what I said on episode 1, the cousin is a cutey patootie. What a mature and likeable kid.

The one time I'm fine with a boss ML asking out employee FL... she owns half the company anyway, so there's no uncomfortable power dynamics at play
