You have a single tunnel vision that can view future episodes with no regard for context. You disregard the fact that the husbands show a softness toward their wives and will do anything for their happiness. The concept of the son-in-law alliance is a juxtaposition to the reality that each of the husbands will betray the alliance at the drop of a hat if it means pleasing his wife. While the drama portrays societal viewpoints on women, the actions of the "perfect matches" show how a husband should cherish his wife. You need to clear your vision and look around to get the whole picture.
Oh now you say "emotional cheating." You didn't say that in your review. Had I not watched before reading your review, I would have thought he was going around jumping into other women's beds. Taking a concubine in those times is not considered cheating. And had you watched carefully, you would have seen the sisters set a trap to have the "concubine" play on his sympathies. Did you miss when his wife said he was too soft hearted? Did you miss the fact that it was his mother who wanted him to take a concubine? Did you miss the purpose of the sisters finding him this "concubine?" I think you missed a lot because your review has holes.

I don't love DYX. I didn't enjoy that cp at all. I am not looking for things I want to see. Your review took it out of context and made it seem as if he was an abusive husband. You wrote your review after 4 episodes about something that happened long after. Your arguments make no sense. In other words if he bumps into her and pushes her against a concrete wall and blood gushes from her head, you will declare he pushed her to the point that blood gushed from her head and no amount of "accident" will fix that for you.
It didn't sit well with me that he raised the whip at the maid. I am surprised he did that as it doesn't go with his quiet nature. I will agree with that. But he is not a wife beater that your word choice suggested. It was part of his act but I still did not like it. I don't even know if he really intended to hit the maid to play a part or things just got out of hand. What I do know is that his character is shown to be gentle and kind and the whip incident seems out of character for whatever reason. You can have your opinion but you take one thing out of context and brand him as abusive. In context of the incident, he is not.
And while we are on the topic of your "review" none of the husbands cheated on his wife. That was made clear in the drama by both Chai An and the second sister.
I'm just catching up on episodes and I'm in the middle of ep.17 now... sry, but what kind of messed up writing…
This drama likes to keep us guessing. It is important to pay close attention to dialogue and to allow it some time to get to where it is going. It is worth it. Keep watching
So I didn't care much for 3rd sister's romance and skipped 1st sister's story for the most part bc the Du guy…

The husband of the first sister did NOT beat her to the point there is blood. You need to watch the episodes instead of pulling scenes out of context.
Glad I did not read the early reviews and decided to watch anyway for LYX, am enjoying it and have caught up.…
Glad you didn't read those reviews. I just wrote one to counter those negative reviews. I usually wait till the end but after I read the lies in those reviews, I decided to post and ongoing review.

Please read this response to your review. I am not sure if you recognize the tone. It is beautifully written in a manner that you might think was a casual response, but Jebran is quite clear. https://kisskh.at/profile/WastingMyTime/review/423770#comment-20475618
