unhinged

It's the first time I *really* had 2nd male lead syndrome. I felt sooo bad for him by the end. 😭

yes

The character (her sister) who committed suicide: in the story she seemed deeply ashamed of herself, and like she couldn't handle that. And then take into account her personality. i don't think you can simplify it as "committing suicide because of men".

If you've never been depressed, you may not understand that it can take *anything* deeply upsetting to a person who is already prone to depression to push them over the edge.
For someone like her character who is quiet & reserved, being deeply ashamed over what happened with that manager could've made her feel like she just could not face herself anymore. Yes it was a sad, rash decision to jump. And many people may not be able to sympathize with it. But in the world of mental health, that's sometimes how it goes - irrational decisions brought on by extreme emotion that the person thinks/feels they cannot handle.
I know this from experience.

Most MDL comments are becoming nothing but complaining & negative reviews over the past year. Idk why I even bother to look at the comments anymore.

Unfortunately, from what I've seen, not all Kocowa content is available to Viki subscribers. 😕

I used a VPN

I watched it on bilibili.tv with eng subs. It's a site like YT, so idk if the videos are still up. I live in the US & I think I may have had to use a VPN to watch it.

agree. totally worth the trauma.

I put it off for a long time too for the same reasons, but it really is worth watching at least once. It's worth the tears you may (most likely) shed. I actually enjoyed the story (& especially LSG's acting) so much, that I even went back & rewatched it twice now... each time knowing I'd be sad all over again. 🤷‍♀️🥺

I watched it on bilibili.tv with english subs a few months ago. I don't know if it's still available; sometimes videos get taken down.

From someone who hasn't caught up on the eps yet, I want to thank you for putting a spoiler tag. I appreciate it. I was scrolling through comments to see if it's a drama I want to continue watching, and people are posting way too many spoilers & ruining it for others who haven't watched it yet. So, thank you for being considerate.

if people want to discuss each episode in detail they should do it on an app like TV time. Like it was commented on, some of us come on to see whether or not it seems like a show we'd enjoy. I hate unintentionally scrolling past a spoiler. It really ruins it for me, and others, who haven't watched it yet.

idk if you got to finish it, but I watched it on Amazon Prime video. I think it might be on Asiancrush too?

And I'm here wondering how you "completed" a 16 ep drama 9 days ago... when only 8 eps had aired by then. Did you time travel?! lol

Or are you just that fueled by angst that you feel compelled to overreact in your rating? Let's be real - technically you rated this drama based on content in 2 eps, not even the full 8 you watched. 🙄

ah, got ya. I'm glad there are some repercussions, but I prefer those type of people to suffer too. It's more satisfying.

nooo.... I'm in the middle of ep2 and I really hate those two already... do they really not suffer or get 'punished' in any way? 'Cuz idk if I can keep watching if they don't. What they both did in ep1 was just evil, and I cannot STAND evil, greedy people getting away with doing terrible things - especially to family members?! Also, you might want to mark your comment as a spoiler.

not really

"Park Jin Hae's face" lol
I cracked up when I read that! But you're right. I loved his acting here. 🥰

7/6/2023 - Yay... back on Netflix, and coming to Viki 🥰
