Thanks for the honest review 🙌 It saved me from wasting time on this spineless ML drama. Early warnings like yours are super helpful. And don’t mind those self-righteous folks crying about “you can’t review if you dropped it” — your experience matters just as much. They act like higher ratings will put food on their table 😂.

Anyone who watched and dropped a show has every right to leave a review. That’s part of their experience, and it can be just as useful for others to know why someone didn’t finish. Reviews aren’t only for people who stuck it out until the end. You don’t get to decide what others can or can’t do—so maybe keep your “etiquette” to yourself.

Rating begger go rate it yourself

Then FL should just dump that
Unworthy guy instead of waiting for getting kicked out.

i am just hoping this is not another soulmate movie remake into drama
kim dami recently work in the korean movie version of soulmate (chinese OG)

now you know after 2 months ?

love the movie in your Profile picture.

Oh, so you’re a rape apologist now? Three years banned from the industry is not “doing time” — that’s just a career break, not jail. And who exactly made you the authority to decide what’s “enough” for a sexual crime? The trauma can haunt victims for decades, but you think 3 years off work is fine? Pathetic.

Funny how you’re acting like the celeb’s personal pet dog — so eager to jump in and protect your master. You even had time to dig up an old comment just to prove your loyalty. Impressive dedication… or maybe just boredom.

You're absolutely right—and you're not alone in feeling this way. That formula has become painfully predictable in a lot of K-dramas. The male lead (ML) is often the cold, rich, emotionally stunted heir with parent issues, while the female lead (FL) is the hardworking, quirky underdog from a humble background. Add in a few overused tropes—like "accidental cohabitation," "rich vs poor class divide," or "secret birth"—and you basically have 70% of mainstream dramas.

What makes it worse is that many Korean actors are incredibly talented, but they get boxed into these typecast roles because that’s what production houses think will sell. So instead of letting them experiment or grow, they keep replaying the same character arc with slightly different packaging.

Ironically, when shows do break the mold (like My Mister, Move to Heaven, Stranger, or Through the Darkness), they get massive critical praise—but those dramas don’t always hit huge mainstream numbers. So we end up stuck in a loop of "rich CEO + candy FL + trauma dump + magical love story."

It’s like someone in the K-drama committee said:

> “If he’s not rich, rude, and broken inside—is he even a male lead?” 😅



And if she’s not poor and too nice for her own good—then where’s the tragic Cinderella payoff?

That’s just your personal opinion, not a fact.
Just because my views don’t align with yours doesn’t make them “barking.”
Everyone has the right to express their opinions—even when they differ from yours.
Respect that right instead of acting like a fascist trying to silence dissent.
Freedom of speech applies to everyone, not just those you agree with.

never heard of anyone like that...

"Why blame only the script? When the performance is praised, it's the actor who gets all the credit—and a bigger paycheck—not the writer. But when it's criticized, suddenly it's the script's fault? You can’t have it both ways."

> Why is it “disgusting” to say I watch dramas for the female lead? When did I ever say it was to fulfill some sexual fantasy?

And even if someone did watch something for attraction — why is that automatically shameful? There’s a whole legal global industry built around sexual expression.

But when women openly fangirl over male idols, drool over abs, or write fantasy fanfics — that’s called “cute,” “normal,” or “empowering.” So why does it become “disgusting” only when a man appreciates a woman?

Sounds like selective outrage and pseudo-feminism. Equality means the standards apply to everyone — not just when it's convenient for one gender.

So when someone’s opinion doesn’t match yours, it becomes barking — but if it matches, suddenly it’s gospel? Freedom of speech isn’t barking,
Just because you don’t like what’s said doesn’t mean it’s noise.

Because most of people are trash themselves so they want to protect other 🗑️ like them.

How is that not evil? He sued someone who accused him of rape—and because the burden of proof in Korea is unfairly placed on the victim, she couldn't prove it and ended up in jail.

Korean law is structured in a way that protects the accused more than the victim, even in rape cases. Rapists often get away with just probation, while someone who fails to prove the accusation can be jailed for defamation. How does that make sense?

Imagine being a victim and then ending up behind bars just because you couldn’t prove it—does that sound like justice?

He wasn't the only actor in the whole show, you know. Also, just because I don’t like a male actor doesn’t mean I can’t watch a drama. I’m a straight guy, so obviously I don’t watch shows for male leads—I watch them for the female lead or the story, like many others do.

And calling someone a “stalker” while replying to my comment uninvited? That’s some next-level projection. Maybe check the mirror first.
