Bae Ta Mi is toxic. She is everything one shouldn't be in a relationship
I found Morgan to be toxic sometimes - he continually pushed for his ideals and values to be reflected and was routinely disappointed when Ta Mi shared her own views. Ta Mi actually makes quite a lot of effort just to salvage the relationship/show Morgan that she is trying.
Okay I read that the ending is bad. Does the male lead die? No plot spoilers, just need a yes/no answer.
Aww I spoiled the ending for myself. Not sure if I'll continue to watch but I might just to see some more romantic moments. But what's another drama that has a similar vibe? Like set in an office, has funny side characters with their own back stories and good romance, maybe even an arrogant male with good chara development? Like Touch Your Heart/Because This Is My First Life/What's Wrong With Secretary Kim type of drama??
Girl still watch it. It has so many good moments and while I hated her ex husband and the girl...the show overall…
I've just started watching actually. So far I like that the wife was a bit snotty at the start because she seems to have changed, at least from the previews that I've watched, to a more mature version of herself and caring less about status and money because of the divorce. I'm only up to ep 1 tho so hope I like it!!
That's what Qi Xiao adviced Shen Ruoxin to do! But she said that it will adversely affect him psychologically.…
Yeah, still I don't know. It feels like women always have to act better/be the bigger person whilst being the victims and in pain, whilst the perpetrators, usually men, are too "weak" and so get off light. Idk, v annoying.
He is toxic and manipulative, but hey … he is handsome sexy. Lets ignore it. “She knows what she is doing,…
I really don't think it's victim blaming. Some of the comments are just highlighting that Nabi isn't as naive as people think. She's aware of her person much more than people think but she seems to be drawn to personalities that light some sort of fire in her and make her a bit rebellious as to how people perceive her to be. While she may be seen as a "nice, shy, boring girl", she really isn't.
I think it's also good to point out that toxic relationships really are all about adjacent pairs, the relationship exists because one person exhibits vulnerability that draws the more toxic person to create a push/pull dynamic. If you also think about it, no matter how many warnings Nabi gets, she ignores those red flags and actively pursues him, which she's allowed to do, but at the end of the day, choices have consequences, and she really shouldn't be surprised that she might get burnt again. She likes the danger tbh.
It gets better. Glad you're loving it. I miss Park Morgan
Thanks for the comment! I'm really liking how the story is travelling along so far. The characters are very well-written. And Park Morgan is a babe lol.
Omg Jang Ki Yong is hot esp in Ep 2 when he does that nose scrunching thing. Swoon ~~
Also for the plot, I love how it's relevant to now. Regulation/De-regulation of the internet and political interests, government involvement/interference are all timely discussions to be had. Loving this so far!
Very creepy and uncomfortable to watch. I am not in the age anymore where I find toxic behavior and a cute face…
Yeah lol the flirting scenes were cringey, at least for me as I'm also no longer a teenager. I also think that in terms of toxic relationships, it comes in adjacent pairs so FL attracts ML because she is also toxic (although as the drama seems to be modelled from her point of view, we have more sympathy for her, but we also have to ask, why should we sympathise when she's really crossed the line from just being a victim of circumstances to someone who's actively responsible for her actions)?
