Too Much Abuse for Me
The thing I liked about this drama was that it's dark. Not just the content but all the areas they used had a dark aura around them. I watched this years ago and remember it being very dark but I liked that ambiance. However, the amount of abuse that was prevalent in the drama made it not right for me. It wasn't so much there was abuse, but the woman still loved him after leaving him for his abusive behavior and to save her son. How did she hold on to those feelings? Main guy was a terrible person and I wouldn't hook him up with my worst enemy. There was a deeper hurt to him though, so that was good but I just didn't like this drama.Was this review helpful to you?
Not Memorable
I keep a list of dramas I've finished and what I rated them out of 10 and I gave this drama a 6 but honestly I barely remember it. I love Cheryl Yang and have watched a lot of her works but this was one of my least favorites from her. The story seemed all over the place from what I remember and I couldn't really connect with the characters on a personal level. There were also some annoying moments as well. I really wish they'd done a better job with this drama, it had the story to be a great and mature drama.Was this review helpful to you?
A Nice Gem
This show was pretty good actually. It showed three middle aged men who all had flaws of their own maneuver careers, love, etc. The main pairing had decent chemistry, it felt there was something missing at times tbh, the secondary pairing (younger sister with friend) was a bit creepy in my opinion. Just leave the man alone and the last guy's story I barely remember. I think he dated the main lady's friend or something. The show was good but not really memorable imo. I don't regret watching it but maybe they could've included more drama than the younger/older couple's issues and some drama for the main leads.Was this review helpful to you?
Amazing Film
I was pleasantly surprised by this film. The acting, the plot, the progression throughout the film were absolutely amazing. The ending really shocked me and it came to a clean and pretty decent close. The twists you never saw coming and when you thought you knew what was going on, it changed. I loved it. I thought it was a sci fi movie at first but it came together so nicely and to think back on it, you are able to put the pieces together. It was refreshing seeing this amazing movie. Writing, acting and I am sure directing was spot on!Was this review helpful to you?

BORING!!
I wanted to love this show. I loved the main actor and actress in other dramas but this one sucked! The show begins when her mother dies and leaves her dumpling shop to some random husband and not to her daughter. Daughter comes back and finds this random guy living there. After coming to some agreement she agrees to let him stay as he seemed harmless and the dumpling shop was booming. However, after they got into a relationship with one another issue after issue began to surface and some of them didn't matter anyway. It seemed like they just wanted to add drama to the already dying plot. It took me four months to finish this drama and I shouldn't have. Her real father that abandoned her comes back and now he wants a piece of the pie all of a sudden and instead of telling him off, she just lets him do what he wants? Ugh. It was so frustrating to me.Was this review helpful to you?

WHAT WAS THAT?!
I was absolutely not a fan of this drama at all! First of all, the male lead treated her like garbage the first half of the show to get the attention of a gold digger he knew didn't give him the time of day unless he had money. He thought she had cancer and still treated the main lead like an unwanted step child. Only solace was the secondary lead who wasn't traditionally handsome but was a good guy but she still fell for that asshole. Up until the end, the male lead wasn't likable. He just never redeemed himself from that irresponsible and immature guy from the beginning. I loathed this drama and wished I hadn't finished it thinking there would be some big ending. It was meh at best. Save yourself the trouble.Was this review helpful to you?
