Had to drop after 10 minutes. The pregnant girl is abused by her silly MIL who only wants a male heir, slapped by her husband and she just sits and cries. I know there are doormat women like her in this world but I'm not interested in watching their journey.
Maybe if some day I'm in the mood to sympathize with an educated, grown up woman who doesn't have a spine, I'll come back to it.
The FL has a nice journey from being someone who has no confidence at work and only wants to quit and become a housewife to becoming a woman who is excited for her work and feels happy at her achievements.
But she is a failure at home. Both the leads come back from work, the ML sits on his ass waiting for the FL to start cleaning and cooking for them. When the FL is rightly suggested by Keiko that the man needs to work at home as well, she defends him saying men shouldn't do housework.
Won't even talk about how stupid Aki was, the moment she was ready to be a side dish, I started skipping her scenes. In the last episode she talks so much nonsense, warning Keiko that if she doesn't watch out she'll end up being a career woman. Was that a bad thing in Japan back in the 90s?
Even in the last epi, the FL is busy working at home while the ML doesn't help at all but claims he'll help as much as possible. He even needs the FL to pour his drink for him LOL It was Keiko who had a good character development. She decides to stop chasing men and focus on her work.
No review and not even a comment, what a shame!So we have this a truly Hidden Gem!
The subs on the 1st epi were so out of sync that I couldn't focus on the epi, could u tell me why the FL wasn't happy on being promoted and kept crying?
I won't watch this drama but the synopsis is hilarious. 'A woman whose best friend steals her husband' - is the husband a toy or a child who got stolen? LOL
It was the actors who made it even more amazing. This is what thai BLs have been lacking recently. You need good actors for a drama to work. Don't depend on BL fans hoping they'll watch crap no matter what. I wish there were more episodes...
Bad writing and bad direction wastes good actors. Same old problem with this thai drama as well. Also, the FL swings between being a doormat and being strong. Seems like the writer was trying to satisfy both types of viewers lol
I swear, the majority of these rom/com dramas the women are dumber than rocks and so immature it just grates on…
True! Also, if I had grown up watching idiotic women in dramas then maybe I wouldn't mind it but if one watches good quality stuff and is then faced by such mediocre writing, it stands out.
On the 10th episode and I'm with the FL. She is treated as an outsider by her family so it's normal for her to react. I'm fed up of watching FLs who act like saints, keep forgiving bad behavior and encourage bullies. Though she also fools the innocent ML who never did her any wrong. He is quite innocent and keeps taking her side no matter what.

The makers like to give an excuse that it's coz young girls like to watch or that there's a market to see stupid FLs but it's so wrong. I'm not asking for FLs to be perfect from the start or be wonder woman but don't make them so pathetic! They are so badly written that it makes no sense when a grown up man falls for such women.
Our world is full of people who want to dictate how others should live their lives. The price is paid by those who choose not to do what the majority does. The moment you decide to behave any differently from the people around you, you'll see them gossiping, bullying. At times even in the name of love.
It's a shame that even in 2023 there are many places on this earth where you can actually be killed coz you love the 'wrong' person.
Thanks to you, I was thinking of watching this. You saved my time. Normal female lead in Cdramas is a rare case.
I'll try one last time coz you really fail to understand my sentences. I removed this drama and the FL from my memory. So I cannot sit here and give examples to prove how bad she was. If you have so much time to keep asking me the same thing again and again then go and watch the 1st 3 epi and you'll get it, hopefully. And before you jump on me again, I remember this coz I dropped it at the 3rd episode. Goodbye.
