Ok, I'm done drinking this and I'm still standing. Yay!! That's pretty much the only positive thing I can find to write about this drama. I regret that I didn't listen to the Jdorama officianados who were warning about the huge elephant in the room, and I went into it innocently thinking this would be the one to subvert the trope. Yeah, nope! Also, the 2nd ML is very handsome, but his acting was very weird, I don't know if it was direction choice or poor acting. I can't wait to to forget about this drama LOL. 6,5/10.
haha nice joke first talk about story not acting production music thats not audeince want ...only wants moral…
I will not read all of your comment because I tried but it's too long and has no punctuation. So to make it short and easy: right back at you, pal. Right back at you. ^^
I'm glad she ended up with Hiroki, in part just cause I hated Fuyutsuki so much, lol. I like Snowman, but Tatsuya…
I personally think this is a more frequent situation than we might imagine. I used to live in a country where the husband's family would set up the wife to sleep with a husband's brother or cousin (so that the kids would look like him), without the husband's knowledge or consent (or was it really?). But even in more general terms. We already know that wives can raise their husband's children from affairs. It would make sense that some husbands can do the same, turning a blind eye, rather than lose everything.
> But he wasn't ABUSIVE ABUSIVE!I mean, he raped her though. That's in part why she cheated, she was looking for…
I don't think people are uncomfortable with the marital rape, I think they are TOO comfortable with it. They explain it away very easily ( he lost his mind a bit). But She you see, she's the bad one because she should've gone to the police or shut her mouth and taken it forever I guess.
What I find interesting is that the same people who will understand the ML acting up because of something he saw in the afternoon, turn and blame the FL for not keeping it together right after being raped. There's a word for it, but I can't remember what it is in english cause I'm an ESL...
I don't know what's happening to this comment section. I just wish people would understand that not every drama caters to them. I mean, the synopsis is pretty upfront about the cheating, if you can't watch it, stir clear. How can you get into this type of drama and then clutch your pearls because ooh cheatingggg. And then start waxxing poetry about your high moral standard, like anybody cares. Call me a cheater all day if you want, still I loved this drama.
This is about a fledgling marriage, with a mean husband and a woman who decides to be with someone who is gentle. They have one night with a big consequence. The consequence will change their marriage. There is also a little element that I won't spoil but explains the choices the FL makes (though doesn't excuse them). The acting and production value are really good, if you like dramas with more mature themes, this one might be for you.
Storylines of Cheating films that make it not good to watch.1. Filmmakers always portray Cheating wife as a victim…
1. Filmmakers always portray Cheating wife as a victim but actually they're not. Just before she cheats, her husband does attack her. He also clearly tells the coffee shop guy that he knows he's been mistreating her as a way to vent his anger (although not physically, he only went physical that one time).
2.They portray cheated husbands as a villain. They show him cry, he confesses all his inadequacies to the coffee shop guy, he's scared of also hurting the baby. Then he can't help but fall in love with the baby and puts his family first. As for her, she clearly says multiple times "I'm bad".
4. Most storylines of cheating wives always ends in a happy ending and the husband suffers in the end. Oooh you didn't watch the show. OK, I'll just stop here. Take care.
Overall, it was not bad, it's a good adaptation. However, my favourite will always be the Japanese drama. It's…
been a long time since I saw you comment. nice to hear from you. I also really dislike makeovers, except in some very specific cases (marry my husband has a very good makeover IMO, very plot driven too). I also don't understand Asians aversion for curls, I find it very pretty.
the tags on MDL are becoming a joke. "Single Male lead'? Aren't 95% of all ML single anyway? I would understand "married Male lead" because it's a bit more rare. Let's not forget that tags are here to help people find a trope they're looking for. I don't think anyone is desperately looking for single male leads in dramas, are they? While I'm at it, let me also point out the dramas that are named "love of oncologists" and the tags are as follow: oncologist ML, oncologist FL, oncologist support character, oncologist dept setting.
I'm sorry to be ranting here but I don't understand some of these tags.
The ML is not insanely obsessed, it's just that they had some connections in the past, like a childhood classmate,…
oh ok thanks. Does he do something weird to have her (like manipulate her or other people)? Please don't worry to spoil me hehe I'm SO curious but the drama is so long, I don't think I can sit through it all right now
I just finished watching this, I have to say thank you to whomever recommended it to me (can't remember who unfortunately!) this was really good. I think you will either love or loath it. This is not (IMO) for people who are deep into mysteries,you will probably like it if you come from another genre but you want a palette cleanser. I'm an avid romance watcher, but I was in a slump. This got me out of it with mystery, personal drama, music (although not quite as much as I was expecting), and some off the chart romantic chemistry. This is not a romance drama by all means, but the little bit of it there was, was oddly satisfying for some reason. Not perfect, but a nice change of pace for someone of drama slump like me. I gave it 8,5
I'm thinking about to watch this drama, but I'm not sure yet.Can someone please let me know, what this drama is…
I guess this one is polarizing. I really liked it, I gave it a 8.5 The funny thing is that previous commenter actually gave a pretty good summary of the show, the FL is indeed unlikeable (I happen to like this type). I also agree that you should give a try. Where I disagree is about the plot, it was actually really good, even though if you like a tight, action/thrill packed show, maybe 10 episodes would've served it better. I actually liked the side stories that were happening throughout the show so it was fine by me. This is not for everyone, it is kind of a huis-clos type mystery (they are almost never outside, and the light is always very low) with a sprinkling of romantic chemistry (do NOT watch it for that reason though) on the side.

waiting for episode 12 to deliver the fatal dose.
