I think the issues in this drama are much deeper than miscommunication. They didn’t trust each other, so they had to keep their secrets close. Later, they fell in love but were still learning how to trust each other (and whether they could) and pride got into the game as well. I think what we saw was more about learning to communicate through heartbreak, so that miscommunication doesn’t become an issue in the future.

It was a great show!! Great pacing, low story, relationship and character development, blend of humor and sadness and romance (!). I loved it — probably one of the best wuxia dramas I’ve seen.

I'd love recommendations!

No, I don't think it will get better as well. I will still watch it, because it's an easy watch and positive vibe if I'd like to rest. I do like their respectful no-drama relationship though. About character development, I loved recent You and Everything Else - it hits on another level

So! The worker gets some random drink from a boss who was obviously shady the day before. Gets into their car and immediately drinks it (why?), then drives, feels sleepy, and does not pull over or stop (why?). He then gets into an accident with the white truck that was unavoidable (really?). At this point, it was harder for all the accident pieces to fall together for him to die than not to die.

- What if he gave the drink to his kid or never drank it?
- What if the police investigated this drink? (They do have to investigate the accident, right?)
- What if he ran into some pole and not the white truck?

What if... feel free to add yours

Help me a bit with the accident logic:

I wanted to say "why woul ppl critisize So Min, can't they separate actor from character and from writing?" and then I saw the comments below. It's sad :(

oh interesting! I actually thought her character is quite different here from Love Next Door. If anything, maybe closer to Because This Is My First Life, but this was like 8 years ago.

While I think the both actors are carrying the drama, I find the plot to be very typical personally. So I understand that smth feels off.

He still seems to play clumsy and cute character in "would you marry me?" But hopefully no high school uniform.

I caught myself thinking that I do not understand the reason why Woo Shik and So Min chose this project. They both used to do much more interesting projects. Unless they wanted to take on smth easier or work with each other.

yeah, that one doesn't even count :D

You may not be ok, but still keep going on and get better along the way

Oh, I didn't expect that :) From everything put together it seems like it either has comical side to it or is decision to make the plot move forward. I guess I will give it a try and see how it goes. The first episode was very moody, but sounds like it gets much lighter after it.

That really makes me feel better. Glad I’m not the only one who felt that way!

That totally makes sense! Also seems like I will not spoil much since show is not heavy on the story based on the feedback.

Thank you for you kind words! After positive feedback I am thinking to give it a shot for few more episodes. Hope it was just first episode impression.

Oh wow, sounds like romance description is worth watching! Overall I noticed that this year cdramas picked up on the romance. Thank you.

I watched episode 1 after finishing Female General and When Destiny Brings the Demon. Honestly, I wasn’t impressed at all. Too much blood right after WDBtD feels overwhelming. Seeing a child in the army feels out of place, and a child being drawn to women feels even more inappropriate. I also didn’t feel invested in the plot at this point.

So my question is: does it get better, or should I drop the show and invest my time elsewhere?

I need advice if I should continue watching the show. Context below:
