Honestly...not that bad
Considering how quickly the rating was declining, I thought the last episodes were so bad. However, they were fine. Yes, I did find it getting boring in the middle and slow, but it's not so terrible for it to go down like this. A few of my thoughts:
1. The villain was introduced too late. And honestly, the sister was not a good enough villain sidekick, so that half of the story was lacklustre.
2. ML's sister was definitely in a toxic relationship, so even if I hated her, I really couldn't. She needed more substance in her background story. They definitely could have restored the sibling relationship if they tried, because again, there was no real friction between them.
3. Unpopular opinion, but I think Ha-yeon could do so much better than Seon-U. I think he needs to find himself before he starts another relationship because he is just not ready to move on from Da-rim
4. Amnesia was unnecessary, but whatever it was, it was short-lived, and this is a K-drama...
5. I loved the absolute torment they showed ML (and Ki Yong's acting) going through when he thought she was married, and he was basically a homewrecker. And that karaoke scene one day before the engagement really made me feel.
6. Yes, a lot of tropes were so cliche, but so were the tropes in Business Proposal, and I liked that show too, so I didn't mind whatever they threw at us because it was all a laugh or an eye roll, but I didn't expect any deeeep meanings anywhere lol.
Overall - I am glad I didn't stop after I saw the rating dropped because I don't regret watching it. It was a good show with a strong start. I started off by giving it 9/10 and dropping it to 8.4, but again, a really good watch.
