lol this is drama? not documentary...reality = drama?wakeup
It’s just a drama” isn’t a free pass. Wake up—this isn’t a medieval fantasy or some god-realm costume show. It’s set in the modern world, using real-life jobs, laws, and relationships. If the story is based on real-life scenarios, it will be judged by real-life standards. You can’t defend harmful behavior as romance and then hide behind fiction when people call it out. Normalizing toxic relationships, excusing abuse, or framing lack of consent as destiny isn’t harmless entertainment. Stories shape mindsets. Enjoy drama, but wake up from the fantasy that every toxic relationship is “true love.” Drama doesn’t erase basic morality.
you’re right maybe this is coming from the whole birthrate being low in Korea and maybe this is their way of…
Thanks for understanding my point — I really appreciate that. And yes, I completely agree that having babies in itself is not wrong at all. South Korea genuinely does need to increase its birth rate if it wants to sustain its society and diaspora in the long run. That concern is valid. What feels deeply wrong, though, is how some of these dramas choose to portray it. Impregnating a stranger because “things just happened,” not using protection — when condoms are hardly expensive even for a poor CEO or a powerful president — and then framing the pregnancy as fate or romance is irresponsible storytelling. Pressuring a woman to carry the pregnancy out of obligation, fear, or social pressure is even worse. And showing her abandoning her life, dreams, and career as if that’s the natural or noble outcome feels like a very outdated, almost medieval mindset — reducing women to child-making machines rather than full human beings with agency. So yes, romance audiences may enjoy it without questioning the logic, but that doesn’t mean the messaging isn’t problematic. Wanting more babies is understandable; promoting it through coercion, negligence, and glorified power imbalance is not.
yes and i saw a two timer cheating on her handicap husband
Well I think you don't understand it She was two timing him(her husband) when she was dating her bf (ml) They got in accident he becomes handicapped trying to save her, She lost her memory And her father married her to him, and she married him to take responsibility for his situation Then when she meet her ex, and regained her memory she started cheating and then abandon her husband, They were husband and wife for years and she had no empathy or sympathy for her husband And no regard for father son relationship her son and husband had built Just because she found biological father of her son... She and her strong rich boyfriend bullied an handicapped man And his wife and son were stolen....
Funny how some people need 10 episodes to understand what others catch in one. Intelligence works at different…
I’m not judging your intelligence. You’re the one implying that people can’t judge a show from its first episode. If you can’t do that, it doesn’t mean others can’t. That’s just forcing your own standard on everyone else.
And I never said a drama can’t be good if it doesn’t follow the manhwa—I haven’t even read it. I’m watching episode 2 myself.
My issue is with what the show presents within the first episode itself. The dialogue and behavior are frankly insulting toward women. The male lead claims he wants to stay unmarried and emotionally distant because of guilt over his brother’s death—yet he’s perfectly fine having casual sex with a stranger.
Worse, he doesn’t use protection. That’s not romantic, tragic, or “complex”—it’s irresponsible and selfish. In any situation, including one-night stands, not using protection with someone you don’t know is wrong. Sex does not equal consent to pregnancy. Even married couples plan children with mutual consent.
So yes, one episode is enough to judge that. If you’re okay with it, that’s your perspective—but don’t pretend the criticism is baseless just because you personally don’t see it.

They got in accident he becomes handicapped trying to save her,
She lost her memory
And her father married her to him, and she married him to take responsibility for his situation
Then when she meet her ex, and regained her memory she started cheating and then abandon her husband,
They were husband and wife for years and she had no empathy or sympathy for her husband
And no regard for father son relationship her son and husband had built
Just because she found biological father of her son...
She and her strong rich boyfriend bullied an handicapped man
And his wife and son were stolen....
