I think action & superhero dramas get away with even more illogic and flawed use of tropes & clichés than do romcoms. But it seems like romcoms get the most criticism.

My guess is the writer wrote the beginning on her own, but after the deal was signed the studio got involved and told her the first drafts are good enough and to hurry up, already!

But she gives him pocket money whenever they have sex, which is nice.

No doubt. But how? Imposed trauma? MKUltra?

Thanks! There's nothing wrong with clichés if they are used well and fresh.

"People who prefer quality storytelling shouldn't watch romcoms."

Are there any exceptions to this rule? (There must be!) Which K-romcoms are appreciated for their great scripts?

I bet if he became cashvillain instead of cashero, his money wouldn't disappear. Only the good guys have to pay a price to use their powers!

Someone said she was replaced by Jo Bo-ah

The stakes are much higher here. In the webtoon the money doesn't disintegrate. And there's no coins dropping as change.

Yes, I agree they should have followed-up with the sister. Not addressing her situation is an obvious fail. Especially after they even followed-up with those corny loansharks, in prison.

(Sorry, I moved my initial reply to the preceding comment. I thought it fit there better. Oops!)

It was a nice apology for such a lame production. It's how we know they all felt embarrassed and ashamed for perpetrating a drama based on such a poor script. It was a wink and a nod that this is all pretense and nothing to take seriously: just a time-waste for us and a paycheck for them. No industry awards are expected and none will be given.

Nope. FL was about to find her sister in ep14 when she accidentally shared a dynamite kiss with a man (ML) she had known before, who was suffering from amnesia. His memory loss transferred to her, and so she forgot all about her sister who had started out as successful but ended up taking over the FL's fate of working multiple part-time jobs to make ends meet.

This is an original story and not a remake of The Glory (K-drama). Nor does it feature the notorious Scottish spy Robert Fortune who stole the Emperor's tea from China for the British East India Company.

She convinced the production to replace her with Jo Bo-ah.

She was replaced by Jo Bo-ah. The cast page has been updated.

Oh. The cast list has finally been updated. Jo Bo-ah wasn't listed previously. That part had been originally credited to Moon Ga-Young.

I also enjoyed Wok of Love (2018) which recently arrived on Netflix in my region.

Netflix has plenty of money, but they made the decision to keep it short.

Technically, his next project is Typhoon Family, which streamed before this one but the production came after. 😉

Moving is THE example which proves that great storytelling finds its audience, even while so many other projects are blaming their failures on 'superhero fatigue'.
