Kim Ji-won really is breathtaking in this drama. I loved her in Fight For My Way and she was obviously great in My Liberation Notes, but this is a performance of a different magnitude, since it's such a BIG drama in every way. Kim Soo-hyun is obviously perfect too, but he's done this kind of scale before.

The OST in the teaser is beautiful. But hopefully the director has acquired more than two songs that play over and over again in every episode this time around. 😅

He was very busy last year so I'm glad he's taking a breather. Hoping for casting news soon though!
EDIT: Omg, ask and you shall receive. He will reportedly lead a new drama, ‘Black Salt Dragon’.

😈

Writer Park Ji-eun is famous for very skillfully blending the two. It may not be for you, but judging on this drama's success and that of her past dramas, it seems to be a winning recipe.

Even CLOY didn't hit 20% until its final episode.

I recommend The Glory. He's a real sweetheart in that.

It's hard to predict the final numbers, but 18% is possible. But 16-17% more likely.

The real-time TV rating for ep 8 reached 30%. New ratings record incoming from Nielsen later. 🤩

It has yet to be confirmed.

Episode 10 fell to the lowest TV rating of the drama's run with 2.2%. I can't say I'm too surprised. I will finish this for the actors, despite the writing, and hope that it at least has a good final episode.

The writing drives me up the wall. I can't even enjoy the main couple. Biggest disappointment of the year.

I don't find the dramas comparable. In 2521 it was clear all along they hadn't ended up together because of the frame narrative with the daugher. That was no surprise. But in this drama the whole point is them getting through a marriage crisis together. If she dies at the end, it'll all have been in vain. Besides, this writer usually delivers a happy ending. I think we will get it here too.

Poor Kwak Dong-yeon getting typecast in these roles. At least he's great at it 🤣

He's leading The 8 Show coming out on Netflix in May, so no laying low for him.

Yep. Sunday usually always higher.

Real-time tv rating for episode 7 suggests a new Saturday record, but maybe not quite as high as last Sunday. But that does suggest the drama is on track for a new overall record at >14.1% tomorrow. 😍

He did the right thing staying quiet and not airing their dirty laundry in public. The others should’ve kept the drama off Instagram as well. Netizens may be hating on him for being a “coward” but for many of us, it’s clear it was the best strategy. In that sense, the breakup is unsurprising. Their priorities didn’t align. Even now, HSH is posting memes online, broadcasting everything. He’s clearly a more private person.

Well … I guess they’ll recast or cancel this

Why do I have a feeling this drama will end with them having a baby and redecorating the nursery 😭
