Thanks to you, I was thinking of watching this. You saved my time. Normal female lead in Cdramas is a rare case.
I dropped it coz I don't like wasting my time on badly written leads where the producers hope viewers will watch more episodes waiting for improvement. There are far better dramas out there. And I delete such bad dramas from my memory, so I can't help you.
It's a torture to watch 1 epi per week and wait for the next wondering what happens next. And I watch so many dramas that there are times I forget what happened in the previous epi lol
This year's Thai BLs disappointed me a lot and then I watched this one and I'm so happy! Don't take all viewers for granted. Not everyone will watch bad acting just coz it's BL. Can't believe it'll end so soon :(
Is this supposed to be a comedy? It starts with the FL working for the ML and being his secret girlfriend, he treats her like dirt but she accepts the abuse. For a moment I thought I was watching some lakorn.
I was about to drop coz I'm not interested in watching women who choose to stay in an abusive relationship just coz the man is rich. Then I saw hints that there's something else going in her mind. She runs away while he is on his way to get engaged to another girl. Suddenly the ML isn't abusive, he runs from his engagement and starts looking like a 5yr old kid being controlled by his mom, being locked in his room for being naughty.
Was the writer told that an abusive ML might not be accepted by sane audience of c-dramas, no matter how rich he is, so suddenly he has turned into a loverboy and the FL into a scheming lady who is torturing the poor boy lol
Have watched enough dramas to guess what this big secret could have been.
I did like the beginning when the FL first slaps her cheating bf then the other woman. I'm fed up seeing women blame the other woman more than their cheating partner. Your hubby/bf has made promises to be loyal and he is the one who chooses to cheat, he is not some puppy who innocently ran after someone or got trapped by someone. Hopefully the acting will be good.
Edit: dropped at the 10min mark, the acting is quite bad.
Such fans don't realize they're actually doing more harm than good to their favorite. Let your fav actor know when he doesn't act well or works in a bad drama. I have dropped dramas of my favs when it's bad. This is why producers hire famous actors knowing fans will watch no matter what and claim it's amazing.
Gave up wile watching the 6th episode. The FL has been a single mom for around 4 years and has taken care of her son very well. The ML appears and suddenly she can't make proper breakfast. He has issues with what she feeds her son, how she takes him to school. This is not cute or romantic where the father starts questioning her upbringing every step of the way.
In real life, such incidents will help the man's lawyer to prove in court that the rich dad should get the custody. But the drama is aimed at young audience so this is romantic and the ML's way to show how much he loves his son.
Tori was good as usual, I'm not a fan of the acting style displayed by the actress though.
ML's female friend barges in and tells the FL to leave claiming their worlds are quite different now. FL who was already having doubts runs away but the ML doesn't try much to find her and make things clear. Then he takes his own sweet time to write a letter to the FL trying to show how much she means to him. I just didn't feel the love when at last the ML decides, oh I need the FL and proposes to her while she keeps staring at him with love in her eyes.

And in many such cases we're told that the FL improved later on but I can't keep waiting for the miracle to happen. Not asking for perfect leads from ep1 but like u wrote, it's rare to find normal FLs.
If I had made a list of dramas I've dropped coz of bad FLs this one would be added to it. I don't have the time to watch any more episodes hoping she'll improve. My patience ran out in 3 episodes.
I love the trust producers have on us viewers. They know many will watch no matter how bad it is while the company laughs its way to the bank. I've dropped many bad dramas but never something within the first 5 minutes.
OMG! So, where to start...?So imagine, you have a finacee and that fiancee tells you, that he has to have s**…
I stopped watching lakorns coz I could only find disgusting toxic characters. But I occasionally visit the drama pages on MDL to have a good laugh at them. I'm very sure there are countless people young and old who seriously watch them and find all this very romantic LOL
On epi 3 and I see no reason why 2 young boys are so desperate for her. Also why do all these noona romances always show that the FL doesn't clean her home whereas dramas with an older man romance always shows an impeccable bachelor.
The ML is a 40 year old actor who lives with his gf so he isn't some virgin waiting for true love. He hides this gf from the world, at last the girl walks out. He wakes up dreaming that the gf is back in his bed but it was just a dream. Later in the day he is already flirting with a young girl who is part of the crew. Making her sit on his lap so that she can do his makeup coz very conveniently she can't sit on the chair coz of her dress.
The writing is so flimsy. Drunk leads spend the night together, FL doesn't even bother to take the morning after pill or go to a doctor. The genre 'comedy' is apt. In the last episode another actor makes the FL sit on his lap to do his makeup, she readily sits and the ML rushes to separate them.
Thai drama writers and their target audience live in an entirely different world where such things are romantic or cute and not disgustingly creepy or stupid.
