i guess the only thing they have in their relationship is love.. there is no trust or respect or mutual understanding.. to top it they both are raised in entirely different social class.. neither of them can adjust with each other's society..
also DH is more invested in the relationship than YJ but thats not her fault.. he dont seems to be as career driver as her..

thankfully the drama hasnt sexualized the fl.. she shown more to be a short tempered fighter girl.. i also read some initial episodes of the webtoon and the drama has changed her a lot.. in the drama the fl is not exactly a bully.. she fights with people who causes trouble to her or people around her..

this one was made in 2013 and kdramas started to look rich from around 2016-17.. i think chinese dramas have more budget since china itself is a big market for chinese dramas.. but kdramas have better actors and story..
also Korean kingdoms were comparatively smaller and simpler than Chinese kingdoms

she wasnt allowed to enter the OR when she was under meditation and just because she has ptsd doesnt mean she should leave something she is passionate about..
she was under treatment all the time she was with dr.kim.. so she was under treatment in a short while after the accident..

the full drama is on youtube now.. on the official channel of sbs

i think religion is not a big deal in korea.. majority of the koreans have no religious affiliation.. there was a drama called save me with a religion leader as the main villian..
they are conservative in cultural wise and not religious wise

bo young is like the cutest thing out there

you are not alone.. i also didnt like the sml.. i got irretated with him playing piano more than half of the episodes.. giving unnecessary importance to his character is the reason why this show went down hill.. the ml had so many dimensions and depth that needed to be disclosed by the writers decided to just show this guy playing piano..
he and his sister(esp the sister) were leeching on the ml and didnt even regret what they did to him.. the worst thing is after everything his sister did she gets a happy ending whereas the ml has to leave everything behind..

i normally watch a kdrama in a day or two but this one took 3-4 days to finish even though its only 12 episodes.. its not because its bad or boring.. its just that this one dont give you adrenal rush or cliffhangers that male to want to watch the next ep asap.. but i forget about those dramas within 2-3 days as well.. with this one the characters stay with you for a long time.. there is nothing complicated with any of the characters but they all have depth.. at the starting you may root for the wrong couple since they kind of indicate it that way..
at first we may thing songwa and jun wan have something going on but the writers make the audience think about it the same way her then-boyfriend things seeing how protective he is over her.. likewise we may also think ikjun has a thing for gyewool.. i absolutely adore the friendship b/w the main characters and also b/w the director and jungwon's mother.. they have been bestfriend's for more than 30+ yrs.. ikjun and his son are way too adorable..

p.s- i am almost sure that ikjun knows about his sister and junwan.. he is too smart to be fooled.. esp when all the evidences are right in front of him.. he is just waiting for them to tell him..

all the young actors are in the supporting role category..

also exo.. she did a movie with d.o

ya the voice was kind of deep like the fl's.. joori's voice is different.. i dont think joori is that important to the plotline as of now.. she just seems to be pissed of at the fl for somehting that happened when they were kids and also because of her closeness to kangtae.. joori clearly likes kangtae..

if you have seen lets fight ghost then the female lead was 16 at that time..

joori was down in the garden with the fl and her father when she got strangled.. so she is not the one watching them through the window..

but the journalist said her mother is dead and her father is in the hospital so stay away from her to kangtae..

its because she has aspd and people suffereing from that dont care about other's personal space or making them uncomfortable.. she will do it again if she gets a chance even if he dont like it. in the precap also she is shown to invade his privacy..

the thing is countries like japan, korea and china dont have mixed race or are very open to people outside asia.. they are not very welcoming towards the idea of immigrates from other race.. western countries used to colonies african countries and make back people their slaves and are the main reason for the rest of the world looking down on them.. so thats why BLM is a big deal in the western countries.. its not like that in countries like japan and korea. they had no history with black people and very little interaction with them.. the majority of the general public stereotype all the races except themselves.. they have a stereotypical image of Africans, middle east asians and indians.. even the whites as well.. countries like japan, Korea and china tries very hand not to let western culture and thinking influence then and protect their culture very dearly.. this ended in them not being very open about other cultures as well..

to put it simple every country has a stereotypical image of cultures that are alien to them.. since kdramas and kpop are getting international attention we are seeing that.. i am an indian and i can tell you that indian mainstream media also has a stereotypical image of south asians and westerners.. i am sure the African countries will also have stereotypical images of other countries.. since Hollywood has market all over the world and USA has a respectable amount of people of colours in their society they cannot be racist even if they want to.. now Hollywood cannot survive without appealing to people of colors.. they even have top artists and celebrities from different race.. its not the case for kdramas since their main target is always their own people..

but didnt the mother die in that house? in the flashback its shown that the mother was kept in a room downstairs and blood coming put of her head.. its hard to understand which scenes are real and which scenes are imagination of the fl..

overall, storywise its just a normal kdrama but i really liked the cast..

and your post is nothing but forcing your opinion on others.. like shinki i am also not gonna repeat myself..
you want to believe that the fl is the evilest thing out there.. thats fine.. but there is no need to feed your thoughts on others..
