I’ve been noticing this for awhile but I feel like Luke wants Flora to rely on him at work, but Flora really…
Absolutely! He wanted her to confide in him about the poaching, harassment and now the promotion. And she has never tried to rely on him for anything. I like that a lot about our FL. I think it is a brilliant drama that shows why professional and personal interests should never be mixed. Even if Luke wasn’t rude, still there would be so much dilemma with this lopsided power dynamics.
Flora seems incredibly emotionally stunted. She has the emotional maturity of a child. The girl is so focused…
Just trying to understand…when did she intentionally hurt Luke? The only major thing in the drama is hugging her ex but Luke had already hugged his female friend. Other than that they toned down the dating fiasco as in the novel she had actually participated. Here she was just helping out superficially and she explained. So, what else did she do to hurt him or anger him knowingly. Luke on the other hand does hurt deliberately.
Is there a review/censor board that decides to cut down drama episodes? if so, what is the basis for that? There must be modern dramas that have more episodes, so why impose this episode count/scene cut? Just want to understand the rationale since the shooting was already done.
Which is why the Song Yilia arc is so annoying for me
He handled it badly. He expects Flora to trust him without any verbal assurance. As a boss, he should have given her the heads up about the competition at least.
Could it be that FL is so oblivious about Luke’s jealousy because during that game he said asked if anyone is perusing her and when she said no, he said nothing to worry about as there are people who are never coveted! When she said her ex loved her well enough, he asked then why he left you?
I thought that was very demeaning, especially in front of his friend, implying that she should be grateful for whatever crumbs he is offering! of course, no one knows if Netflix translated it properly!! But he usually just behaves erratic when he is jealous and never clarifies anything!
I don’t think the issue is that Tao literally cheated or personally chatted with 45 men. Most people defending…
I think she was right in not telling him! He has the capacity to blame her for everything like he did then…’are you sure he is not harassing you as your are timid and an easy target’. Again, literally he might be right as he has when he said ‘cheap and obedient’. But unfortunately for a boyfriend, these words are excruciatingly deamening! I don’t find Tao’s lack of enthusiasm in confiding in him very surprising to be honest.
IMAGINE if we reverse the role , and Luke met his ex gf and hugged her and didn't tell her that flora is her gf…
Wasn’t he hugging his female friend last episode? Why this double standard? She knew about the relationship and still requested. Flora is not secure in this relationship and doesn’t want others to know that she is sleeping with her boss I suppose. But she did want to have an open relationship at the end. In the book, it actually happened a bit differently. If I remember correctly, they were already broken up before the ex showed up. So, it may look like she is overstepping boundaries with an ex.
Luke can neither deal with a clingy GF nor a non-clingy one! Isn’t the problem Luke and not Flora? So many comments trashing the FL that she doesn’t share or explain! When has Luke given her any psychological safety to open up. When she explains he cuts her off with something insulting…
In the book, Tao did not go to LN's office after she spoke to Tracy. She asked Tracy if she could leave and got…
But in the novel he gets it coz he agreed to be a FWB and told Flora that we aren’t responsible for each other. He realizes that Flora handles things on her own as per the agreements of their relationship. Not that it made him any happier! Here, the dynamics are a different coz LN already told her to come to him whenever she is in a crisis.
