completely agree, this felt so incredibly early 2000s. i was shocked that the ML was just as bad as the MLS in BOF. you wouldve thought weve progressed past all that

just watched the first episode, the characters dont seem complex. just seems like we have a stereotypical “bully” character everyone listens to and a nice smart character who keeps rubbing everyone the wrong way. i struggles to watch it because it just felt so .. silly. why did she say this? why are they doing that? these were my only thoughts.

i thought so too, this was ny first time cringing at this kind of scene while watching a drama. i think the set up wasnt right and the mood setting was off as well. like one second we are stressed but the leads decide this is a good time to have sex like it was so random. and i didnt feel like hari really likes him that much, maybe its the performance or how the character is written to be reluctant to the relationship but either way i thought is was a weird scene. clearly added just to be there without purpose

because the second leads had more tension and the girl was flirting the whole time lol, with the main couple you cant even tell they like each other. i dont rly feel much chemistry from them and this scene felt so out of place

everyone seems excited about the ending of ep 11 but it felt so random to me

this is why i don’t understand people that leave reviews before finishing the drama. the ending makes such a big difference and now the reviews all say 10 while the truthful reviews are buried. rip for people that watch till the very end

i just left a full length review if anyone is interested in knowing what happens in the drama that you may not like. overall id say just watch till episode 14 and skip all of the future/present scenes to actually enjoy this drama.

i feel like it was her friend that tricked him, like it was her playing the part but when he was mad at just her i was like ? what about yeongso? hari was just doing what she had to do for money

i commented twice calm urself, there’s literally people that live on this thread

there are plenty of toxic cliches. its still an issue to depict a rich guy blackmailing a girl and then ending up with her because people start thinking thats cute! or goals! when its not. and this is the definition of a power imbalance, he’s literally her boss and used his wealth several times against her. even if she likes him, some of it is caused by pressure from him.

am i the only one not seeing how this is romantic? first he blackmails her into fake dating him. then in ep 8 he says he wont give up even if she rejects him? hes in a position of power and wealth, hes literally her boss. this is such a power imbalance and it feels so gross

is no one else a little put off by the second couple having sex while she was drunk and he wasnt? like she was so drunk she couldnt remember it the next day.. dont think the drama was very responsible depicting a sexual encounter in that way idk.

ive been saying this since the beginning. im trying hard to have zero expectations and just watch it but i cant help but feel im stuck in 2015. i wouldn’t mind the cliches if they hadnt made the ML a rich ass for the first half of the drama

i feel like there are no lighthearted shows these days, they all focus on thriller and mystery. i am watching 2521 though and its going really well, but i needed something to watch in between. we shall see how this one goes

i bring up the age because its usually a younger audience that likes these tropes. when i was younger it was something i enjoyed as well

literally, he threatens her into fake dating him then gets mad she wasnt who she said she was? why did he get mad at her in the first place when it was her friend that lied ? and why is he mad now when he FORCED her into this position. i cant watch this

okay i quit. watching some rich dude harass a girl he’s blackmailing has never been enjoyable for me

i mean to me it feels like the drama stupified the characters. he didn’t recognize her when her face was an inch away from his? really? now he’s toying with her instead of just communicating. plus i like cliches but not toxic ones

yes i am

am i the only one not into this drama? im trying so hard but i cant get into the tsundere ceo mistreating his poor fake gf thing. like its not 2010 anymore and i now have standards, i just dont think how he’s treating her is cute. unless the people rating this show so highly are 14, i dont get why its so popular. am i missing something
