A Raw and Heartfelt Journey

This drama made me cry a lot, ngl. Its story is both beautiful and deeply touching. However, I have to say, when a certain actor started showing up in later episodes, I just wanted to fast-forward through his scenes. I also wish they had focused more on Eun Myeong, and there were moments when Geum Myeong’s behavior frustrated me. That said, it’s understandable — her parents spoiled her a lot, and it showed.

The first two arcs were absolutely incredible, but towards the end, the story felt a bit stuck in time, lacking the same creativity and depth. It was pretty obvious that they just recreated the same romance for Geum Myeong based on her parents' love story, which I found a little disappointing.

This kdrama isn’t a fairy tale: it’s raw, real, and human. That’s why, despite my reservations, I still gave it a high score. The main and supporting actors (let me ignore that one actor for now) were phenomenal, and I loved how every single character served a real purpose in the story, even if we didn’t realize it until 10 episodes later.

I highly recommend this kdrama to anyone ready to cry and experience life in its most unfiltered form through art.

Muita gente reclamou sobre como a terceira temporada foi conduzida com esse "Mata mas não morre", porém na minha opinião todos esses plots twists "Impossíveis" na minha visão de telespectadora, foi o que fez o drama se tornar mais interessante (e uma grande fonte de entretenimento).

Creio que a maioria que assistiu The Penthouse, conseguia visualizar facilmente o próximo cenário da trama, mas jamais acreditava 100% que o imaginado aconteceria, pois era ficcional até demais (bem fic), só pra no final.... REALMENTE acontecer. O público acabou ficando tão acostumado com essas reviravoltas, que a escritora e o diretor acabaram usando deste artificio para nos surpreender DE VERDADE com a finale, que foi muito bonita e significativa.
