I’m going to point this out first, marriage is beautiful and I heard the ML is married. It’s clearly shown in this show. I’m assuming he’s being respectful for the sake of his real-life marriage that’s why the romantic/intimate scenes between him and FL were very “blah” compared to that of the 2nd couple. I mean I get it but I don’t quite understand why take the role if you’re not going to make it believable. The 2nd couple was a “believable couple”. I see it as this, this is your profession and it should be perfected. I strongly believe that if you aren’t single or aren’t too comfortable doing “believable” romantic/intimate “kiss scenes” (no matter your real-life relationship status) in a drama because it may shake-up your real life, then simply stick to non-romantic roles.
I like the ML actor in this show, but THIS ROLE wasn’t for him and to me it showed.
I really enjoyed this cdrama. I usually stay away from cdramas especially modern day cdramas. They almost NEVER cut it for me. However, this one was “a okay”. I noticed a lot of ppl talking about the FL dress style lol I didn’t really care about what she wore (all the outfits on EVERY character was seen in more than one episode anyway lol so the dressing for all the characters was trash from the get-go but whatever). I was more irritated with FL hairstyle lol I really got tired of seeing her hair braided in a ponytail but whatever lol.
I really enjoyed the 2nd couple. They could have definitely played the leading roles. The leading couple was cool too but that 2nd couple was something special lol. Just like all the cdramas I’ve viewed, there’s always annoyance somewhere in there for me and it’s always with the FL. FL was pretty (I saw someone say she wasn’t). Anyway, I will NEVER UNDERSTAND why the directors/producers or whoever is in charge ALWAYS feel the need to ALWAYS make the FL character OVERLY silly/goofy as hell, OVERLY timid, and ALWAYS with a hint of immaturity! I don’t get it! The FL always has a child-like/teen demeanor and I just don’t be understanding why lol. Then there’s ALWAYS the side female characters who are always way more beautiful, glamorous, smart, and sometimes even badass! The side female characters do not be having any problems speaking there minds or standing up for themselves or what they believe in just like how the FL bestfriend was. She was a badass with a no-nonsense attitude and I loved it (she was my favorite character)!! I would also like to see these type of characteristics in the FL character in a cdrama for once. They always make the FL character pitiful and annoying which is why I be having a hard time getting into “modern day cdramas”. The ML and side male characters of course are never portrayed as timid or goofy with a “save me” complex. Overall, this show was good but I can’t say that I kept watching it for the leading roles. It was definitely the 2nd couple who kept me entertained.
