The FL was fine in first episode,
but with each passing episode she gt dumber and dumber.

I actually thought this drama is a parody, like Naked Gun movies.
unfortunately this drama is not a parody and the FL is probably the dumbest one in Kdrama history.

Not even midway mark and even with FF button, this is an unbearable drama, unless one wants to see an extremely stupid FL trying her best to get all her team mates killed twice each episode.

no kissing but intimate scenes are there.

It really does not matter whether there were kissing or intimate scenes.
One should not start dating their ex lover's sibling.

Cdramas keep throwing these shitty FL's who seem to think men of ML's family are her backups.

Brilliant drama.

Hooked from start to finish.

Drama is good and interesting.

FL is gorgeous and well rounded.
ML is meh....same boring Cdrama ML in these kinds of dramas. Few episodes in, there is just one expression on his face. Hoping to see a second expression before the drama ends.

The blame is all around.
FL never set boundaries. That guy literally follows her everywhere and injects into her life anytime he wanted. She was like meh...

ML was a simp. Any other man would have punched the 2ML long back or told the FL to get her act straight. The other guy was openly making moves on his girl.....any guy with little self respect would have gone to town on both of them.

This drama gets better and better as the episodes go on.

You are hung up on specifics from this drama,

I am only pointing at the generic trend in Kdramas.

There are half a dozen Kdramas released in last few months where a cheating male character was physically thrashed, verbally abused and publicly humiliated, all at the same time in some cases.
There are ZERO kdramas where something like this happened to a cheating female character.

THAT is a pattern.

That is all I am pointing at.

the FL is garbage.

I can imagine the trashy SML going after the garbage
but the ML is a nice guy. The writers never convinced me why a normal guy like that would fall for such garbage.

If the writers intent was to have the FL have sexual interactions with multiple guys, you succeeded but it just turned the FL into garbage.

even the horrible mother and daughter were turned into sympathetic ones,
as if all the things they did in the drama were minor kids stuff.

You are just ignoring the basic point I am making.

It's about how the male cheaters are treated vs how female cheaters are treated in Kdramas.

The one who seems to be projecting something is you.

My single point was about how male cheaters get physically thrashed, verbally assaulted and publicly shamed VS female cheaters never being put through the same in Kdramas.

There...
That's the single point I am making.
Nothing else.

complain?

it's more a discussion.

It's a drama with same shit being repeated in quite a few recent Kdramas.

Again, it's not about just this drama.
It's a general observation made where in every male cheater in Kdramas gets physically assaulted and abused.
Whereas the female cheaters are never put through similar process.

Just calling it out as I see it.
It seems as though the Kdrama makers are saying if you are a female, you can have your reasons to cheat and it's ok.
The same dramas seem to say if you are man and you cheat, you are better off dead, no matter the reason or circumstances.

Again, it's not about just this drama, this one is just another of the dozen kdramas in last few months with similar 'it's not that big deal if you are a female cheater' theme.

My point was never about the ML's ex in this drama.
It is also not about the ML in this drama.

It is about the general tone of Kdramas.
the cheating men are shown as deserving physical abuse, verbal abuse and dignity lost due to publicly being exposed.
The cheating women in any Kdrama have never through remotely anything that is showing happening to cheating males.

That was the point & this drama predictably following the same pattern is yet another take on cheating women in Kdrama being shown sympathetic.

In fact I can name 5 dramas that are released in last 3 months where cheating men always got thrashed and cheating women are shown sympathetic or even someone who need to be understood.

Made same posts in those dramas as well.
Either tone down the thrashing, abuses and public humiliation on men who cheat or at least in one odd case, do the same for cheating women.

I have no issues with cheating men being portrayed the way they are in Kdramas and in some instances they do deserve the beating etc etc.

I am only asking for parity, show the men getting angry similar to the women and show some emotion.
The only emotion from men in Kdramas who got cheated is to go to a corner and weep or try to understand why the got cheated on and empathize with the cheater.

In fact in some dramas, they go as far as to show the men being cheated on as funny.

men in Kdramas need to learn from women in these same Kdramas on how to deal with cheaters.
I am all about equality.

Kdramas are strange,

Cheating men always get thrashed, abused and publicly humiliated.
Cheating women in these same dramas are never made to go through any of that. Instead the drama will pretend what they did was like over cooking a beef stake and not that serious.

By Kdramas standards, the ML should have beaten the crap out of his ex who cheated on him, abused her and trashed her image.
but the men in these dramas are so pathetic, the ML just cries in a corner like a wimp.

the men in these dramas need to learn from the women in the same dramas in how to deal with cheaters.

in 'strangers again', the ML was abused while married, fakes cheating and is constantly physically and verbally abused by his ex-wife.
in 'crash course in romance', one of the supporting character, who is a horrible women, the husband cheats and gets thrashed and abused by the wife.
in 'Brain works', the ML's wife repeatedly cheats on him with other men. The ML thrashes the guy his wife is cheating with but does not get angry at his wife, ever. I really did not understand why he had to thrash the guy who his wife was having an affair with. If there was anyone who needed a thrashing, it would have been his wife and not the guy who may or not know she was single and shagged her.

in every kdrama, the cheating man is always thrashed.
in every Kdrama, the cheating woman is always justified or sympathized,

Problem with Kdramas is that when women cheat, the 'understanding' and flawed nature are talked about.

When men cheat, they are always beaten, abused and their dignity trampled on.

In every recent drama where a man is shown as cheating, that bloke was thrashed and abused by his wife.
Whenever the reverse happens, the wife who cheated, the drama always asks the viewers to understand and be compassionate.

The show was wrapped up very nicely/
All major and minor characters got their closure.

Just shows the writers cared for the characters they created.

in Ep 1, the FL abuses and thrashes the ML, repeatedly.
Really doubt there can be any happy ending from there on.

Imagine if the FL was physically thrashed by ML in ep1, would we be asking if they have a happy ending?

Nothing on the actress, she is doing her job well.

Just the character, it's the same cute type FL rather than some one more polished and dignified, like the ML friend who joins show later on.

Novelist having the FL this kind of FL does not change my point.

I would have preferred a more mature behaved FL in this drama.
