People seem hung up on who should grovel and say sorry.
Wonder who is going to grovel for how the ML was treated by FL parents?

What ML did was make the best decision possible in a very difficult situation.

irony is that the FL is a lot more understanding of what happened than viewers.
She knows he did not betray her & for a fact ML does not betray her.
He hurt her for sure and it was inevitable she would be hurt from the moment his sister died.

poor Asian men.

Every trauma they have directly leads to them not being to touch girls or have girlfriends.

Please don't have accidents or any trauma guys.
Remember, it will directly affects your ability to interact with girls.

it most probably has to do with men thinking about sex all the time.

Imagine ML thoughts after seeing every pretty girl...
Does not make for a family friendly drama.

That aside, it is pretty strange though.
We never get to see inner thoughts of men in most dramas.

That was absolutely hilarious
but would like if Cdrama show ML having internal thoughts similar to how they FL having them.

By now we pretty much get the whole story of FL, her aspirations, internal thoughts etc etc.
The ML is pretty much an enigma.

Going by numerous Cdramas that came before this, we won't ever see him having internal monologue like FL has almost every episode.

variety is my genre. If I see 2-3 dramas with similar story lines or same characterizations, thats it for me.

Random observation of most Cdramas and some kdramas.

Why don't we get POV of the ML?
In most Cdramas, we listen to what ML says, we also listen to what others think and say about ML but we never ever get to hear the inner thoughts of ML.
On contrary, the FL character is fully fleshed, every episode, we get to listen to FL inner thoughts which gives us an understanding of whats happening to her, what happened to her and gives us a precise position of where FL is.

For ML, it feels like we never know first hand of his thought process. There are no inner thoughts being shared with viewers..

It is a weird drama framing where we almost never get into the brain of one of the main leads of the drama.

Like your list.
thumbs up for a lot of them

This is my fav drama currently running.

And in most countries would end up in jail due to various social and economic advantage that provides.

I do enjoy dramas on these fake relationships...now and then. May be one or two a year and if they dumbed it down for entertainment purpose.
It's like a wink wink drama, the drama makers know it's fake and they are like, we are making it because it's fun.

A serious drama doing this...

You are talking to some one who just finished "love in contract' and was frustrated by how stupid it was.
And imagine the frustration to having jumped into yet another fake husband crap.

Forgive my frustration.
but damn, it's raining fake wives and husbands in Asian dramas.

I agree with you.
Because I have never had that happen to me.
I have never known anyone who had faced similar thing. So, in real life, you or me have zero reason to suspect it.

but, in Cdramas this is pretty common.
So, in Cdrama world, every marriage and relationship should be suspicious.
Half the time, the relationships are fake.

It gets better, We just finished a Kdrama where the FL has fake husbands for money.
So, the world these dramas live in, this is pretty common.
By default every one should be suspicious of everyone 😂

It was intentional and yes shame on me. Shouldn't have done it.

Sorry, my post was not targeting any specific person but I do understand how it can viewed as such.
I understand your point and want to clarify that my target of insult was never the viewers but the producers, writers, director and to a lesser extent actors of this drama.
the main plot and characters are something we see in significant Cdramas. My post while harsh is also the truth.
This show lacks any sense of originality in terms of story-line or characters.
pretty sure a lot of people will like it for the same reasons as well. :)

Sorry to have triggered you.

but yeah, let me repeat, the whole fake husband story is so stupid one needs to park their brain in a parallel universe to buy it.
Or
one needs to be a retard.

Fake husband when you can pretty find the truth with few clicks on internet? I don't mind if people like these kinds of stories but let's not pretend that it is something that happens in life...

disappointing start. the whole premise is something very very common in Cdramas.
To top it, the whole fake husband thing is so unbelievably stupid. One really needs to park their brain in a parallel universe to even begin to buy this shit.

Unless something drastically changes, this will be a drop.
Same shitty story repeated for the Nth time in a Cdrama. The same type of FL, the same type of ML and the same type of 2ML.
We know exactly how this crap is going to play out for each character over the course of the drama.

Oh yeah, did the FL compare men to dogs or were the subtitles playing tricks?

She leaves him, the king is going to get him married to a princess the next day.
And frankly at that point, I would think he deserves much better as well.

The ML is simply the nicest person in the whole drama.
the FL while being a nice girl rarely cares about he feels with her outspokenness.
At this point, I would think there needs to be another girl for the ML, a serious competition so that FL can her act straight.

Love is not a one way street & if the FL is not willing to risk even a little for her love, she does not deserve him.

didn't think from that point of view.
FL does spend lot of time with other men after taking their money.
If someone who does not know the whole truth reads that one line, the FL would come across worse than the ex-wife.

Anyway, Asian dramas tend to be very forgiving of FL interactions with men. In fact the viewers seems to crave FL having as many interactions with as many men.
On contrary any women around ML are seen less than flattering.

The three main leads carried the drama.
The story was ok, nothing new.
What worked for this drama was the incredible chemistry between the trio.
