Living Tribunal

I don't think he will accept the TYH's offer rather I'm afraid of TXN being stupid again and accepting TYH's offer.

Thanks for the info. 🤗

Whether it's worth watching depends on the ending. There's no SFL, but there is an SML who has some intentions towards the FL. The FL is frustrating—she starts with good intentions but only finds faults with the ML. The writer keeps making the ML apologize even when he’s not at fault. In episode 30, the FL asks for a divorce without much explanation, as she’s been neglecting her family by going to unnecessary dinners with the SML. He even makes negative remarks about the ML, but she just listens and never clarifies her husband’s POV. It seems like the writers will again make the ML apologize while the FL gets off scot-free in the end with the way they are going till now.

Nah, there is no breakup and I'm quite satisfied with the ending. I was just saying that it could happen as it seemed like that from the preview.

It happened just after TYH left. I think it was her who made that post if I remember correctly. I also hope it happens like that and there is no breakup between the leads in the drama but can't be too hopeful as they have changed many things from the novel.

I didn't understand that? 🤔

Falling Into You(FIY) is a noona romance drama with a strong focus on sports, while this drama is more of a slice-of-life workplace story. If you liked FIY, you'll enjoy the relationship between the leads here too. Just don't expect the same romantic tension, as FIY had a taboo element that heightened the overall chemistry.

Actually, this exact thing happens in the novel. After their relationship is exposed due to an anonymous post, the ML leaves his position in the company to avoid any issues, even though his superior asked him to tell TXN to quit so he could continue working since he holds a higher position. I think it will play out the same way in the drama.

I don't think this would ever happen in a drama unless the ML is at fault too. He will always go back to the FL, even if she cheats right in front of him. He’d just say it's okay, these things happen, no worries, just don't do it again. I have a male friend from China who says that because of these so-called female empowerment dramas, women there have such high expectations. They want their partners to behave like these ML characters—always being pure, always paying for everything even if they're earning a lot, and never asking any questions when they see her with another guy, while the man has to explain why he even has a woman’s phone number. These dramas are part of the reason for the low birth rate in China because men don't want to put up with this bigotry in the name of equality.

Don't expect too much from female C-drama writers, bro. They often make the ML overly submissive in the name of equality. He has to explain why he even talked to another woman, while the FL can go on dates and get close to other guys without needing to explain herself. Even in this drama, like you mentioned, the ML will probably end up apologizing even though he didn’t do anything major, unlike the FL. The biggest plot twist would be if the FL saw the ML with someone else, got jealous, and actually tried to win him back.

I think this drama would have been better if it were more like Soundtrack #1, without major conflicts like the toxic mom or ex. The drama is too short to properly deal with those issues. If it had 16 episodes, they might have had time for that, but right now, the scenes with the mom and ex just seem unnecessary. They’re only there to create tension and make the leads come together in the last 5-10 minutes of the show.

Okay, thanks! 😂 Just one question: Is this drama good to watch, and is the love triangle really that annoying?

Is it sarcasm or are you actually saying that?

Oh, Thanks for the info.

I have one question: Who is playing Cui Jiu? I haven’t seen him in the cast list yet. Is he a villain or a good guy? Also, are there many misunderstandings or separations between the leads in the novel?

We saw the preview from the MangoTV app

Nope

She did pass away according to preview of ep-21

Thanks 🤗
