As I've been trying to understand why people disagree about the chemistry, I think I'm starting to get where some…
I think you are correct.
For me, not exactly the same, but from person experience… it doesn’t feel good when SR chose her Ex over SH when she was hurting.
Imagine how he feels when he confessed after 20+ years that he likes her and when she needed help she purposely made the choice for the Ex. Pushing his hand away. That can’t make anyone feel positive about themselves. I’m sure there will be explanation… this drama is well crafted to give us the rationale after our emotional response.
So while we sulk along with SH… I’m pretty confident that the ex will be told “no thank you” eventually.
I just feel that SR had been uncharacteristically passive with the EX, when she usually isn’t. Sorry to ramble… I just watched ep 8 - 12 hours ago. 🫣 The actors are really wonderful and if they make us upset (temporarily) they are doing their jobs well!
Just an aside trauma bonding is not two people bonding over trauma. It's specifically about an emotional attachment…
I finally watched ep 8 because I couldn't wait a longer! I could feel the sadness in SH when SR chose her ex over him. SH’s disappointment and hurt were palpable. 😢🫣🤔

Excerpt from Dramabeans:
Then, there’s Yong-pil who has been working in Switzerland the past two years. He and Sam-dal have been doing long distance, and he surprises her with a Christmas visit. We end with the two of them narrating: “We’re only going for as long as our breath allows without being greedy. And whenever we’re out of breath, we’ll come back to that place. Our small stream, Samdal-ri.”

I’m Rewatching now, I didn’t think they broke up. I thought she wanted him to live his dream so she “made” him go, but I didn’t feel they broke up. Now I really have something to look for…🤔🫣😊
Yes it does, here's a recap from The Review Geek:Mi Rae speaks to Tae-pyeong outside and they do put water under…

To me, I hate angst, break-ups, love triangles and all the standard tropes, especially:“nobel idiocy”!
But this is one that to me really worked well!
That’s just my opinion…
If you do watch, let me know what you think!🫣

There’s been so much negativity… (not in this post string)
factual info is good! 😊
Please keep us posted when you can!

Safe travels!!!

I do think the breakup here allowed the FL to discover that she was happy and missed that happiness!
The photos the ML shared with her gave her concrete proof of that.
So while I “hated” The breakup at least there wasn’t a SML forcing his way in.
The FL was so stubborn that I think this was the only way she would relent and go back to him.
The ML had Saint-like patience!
I do 100% get the frustration.
ps: Have you watched “King the Land”?
Right this happens often.
I think you can not like things about the way the story is going or how a character has flaws…
Share your opinion of course OR you can stop watching if you are unhappy with the story…
But don’t hate and spread hate about the show.
Right now it’s only at the halfway point… a lot can change in the story.
By the end everyone could love where it went… imo
That was very kind to share that

You’ve opened my eyes to that…
I have a “bit” of research to start!
Thanks again!
I’ll try looking, but with popular shows, it can be daunting!🫣
Still I appreciate the info! 😊
Does the romance between MR and TP survive her being his boss at work?

Very true!
(Not to mention paying to frame DR, then moving the guy out of the country!) 🫣
Thank you for the additional information!
There’s a lot more to this than I realized. 🤔
Thanks again!
