despite QQ and YL taking way to much screen time towards the end, and despite never really revealing the past of SL and his rival/enemy, I did really like this, I even came to like ZF's mother (not YL's though). Dilraba and Johnny have explosive chemistry, for that alone watching this was worth it.
my guess is that 2ndML told DoHee he had an strawberry allergy so she would feel sorry for him and coaxed her into a relationship with him and he was in therapy but the advice the homeless man/senior doctor gave him was not to 2ndML's liking so he falsified a report on the doctor and that anonymous patient was actually himself.
most actions by the ML make sense when you realize he has the "too much" gene. too much money, too entitled, too idealistic, too romantic, too sacrificing, too annoying, too jealous, too handsome, too innocent, too loud, too much complaining, too unreflected, too cute.
I'm really intrigued by the homeless man's story. their romance is super cute and I'm so glad his family is not dead like we all assumed . I guess the FL's ex wrote a faulty report on him which lead to the destruction of his career and family.
She's super interesting and extremely beautiful, but in real life everything about her would be super creepy and red flags all over the place. I wonder sometimes how dangerous people can be this mesmerizing.

I really wonder how I finished this, because sadly I was kinda suffering through it. The leads had nice chemistry, but the plot was just too much and the characters were really all very annoying. I guess what I disliked the most, was that the FL came across as very dumb, though she really wasn't. Therefore the ML really underestimated her most of the time, and somehow other than become his weakness, she really had no real business. She was there and did her thing, and though you couldn't just simply erase her character, it still felt like she was very unimportant.
The problem is that Black people have been ridiculed for their natural hair and their hairstyles for 400 years.…
Dreads were apparently worn by a lot of different cultures, most would agree they originated from Egypt because there they discovered the earliest findings. However, it's not only about ownership, it's about identity. If more cultures independently invented dreads by themselves, why shouldn't just everybody be able wear them. That's your point, right? Even if that's the case, who claimed the style for themselves first, because it was detrimental to their identity? Who do the majority of people think of when they see dreads? And who suffers the most while just living part of their own culture? Like I said, if black culture was appreciated instead of appropriated, probably nobody would mind sharing at all.

I would welcome the idea when Black people are accepted for it first. Tattoos aren't cultural heritage of any culture or race, that's why it's allowed for anybody. There have been a lot of cultures who did their own kind of skin painting and engraving. Imagine your family having invented a recipe and someone comes into your home tries it, dislikes it and then goes on and opens a thriving restaurant with your recipe. Now you and your family thing, well that's nice we can open up our own restaurant since we're suffering in poverty and this can help us out of it. However, the people that came into your home do not acknowledge where they got it from, they changed the name and changed the recipe to their liking, but they also hinder you open up your recipe. More and more families open up a restaurant of your recipe and benefitting from it, but every time your family tries to do the same the others keep telling you that it's disgusting and it stinks and slowly you realize, that it's not the recipe they dislike, what they don't like is that it's served by your family.
It's not a waste of time, but it won't rock your world either.

I did not really read all of them, but you'll probably find your answer here.
