Slow and odd

I like a slow drama but the tone of this one is confusing. Our ML seems toxic at one point, sweet at another. At 38, he's a good 12 years older than our FL but his character seems to be in his late 20s. I don't sense any chemistry between them.
I have liked both actors in other dramas but i just don't have a clear sense of what the writer and director are trying for here and I can't imagine this thin story line taking up 16 episodes.
The SML isn't captivating me though i do like the SFL so far.
There isnt much buzz about this drama online and it is not surprising.

Very relatable… and yet so draggy!

Everything in this drama is relatable- especially if you’re in your twenties, a working adult trying to survive on your own in this world.

The basic plot of working, trying to climb the corporate ladder to earn more money, get a higher position, buying a house, getting married etc.. it’s all included in this storyline. BUT.. the pace of how it’s unfolding is SO SLOWWWW ;) Could have probably finished the story in just 10 episodes. I’ve been watching the whole thing at 1.5x speed ;):)

There’s the office politics, workplace discrimination, society standings discrimination, family background discrimination, education discrimination.. and the list goes on. It’s really sad if this is all true in Korean culture. One of the side characters broke up with his ex of 4 years, to marry someone of his “social standing” and immediately had an affair w his ex because he just couldn’t get over her. Why marry in the first place?

The chemistry and intensity in the leads relationship is very evident though, and I like it. Very very slow burn, but we get a really good kiss scene at the end of Ep 10 ;) At this point, I’m wondering why don’t they just get together already?? Whatever was stopping them before doesn’t seem that important now. Both leads decided to start relationships with other ppl, but it turns out those were not working out either! It’s interesting because this main relationship is not your typical fall-in-love story, but rather is them cheating on their respective partners (although for me I don’t find it cheating really. )

Let’s see how the story unfolds. I sincerely hope they have a happy ending :)

Update: just completed this. The last 4 episodes were terrible. It was a drag and painful to just complete it. What started off as 7.5 has now dropped to a 6. I wouldn’t recommend this drama. Too complicated and a waste of time

Full time sympathy with both the second leads

I really don't like the drama . Specially the female lead 's character . She herself got confused and make her boyfriend and first male lead's characters confused . Drama started with the employee of the bank where a man fallen in love with a lady . The man since starting when she had joined the bank loved her . But after meeting of three to four time with him she had feeling towards him but not sure . Then one day they decided to meet at dinner . Because he confused with his feeling so he reached the venue late and by the time she had left . From there the irritating part of the drma had started . He sad story to her and confessed his love but she had misunderstood him by saying that she is dating someone but actually she had started her life with the someone. Here he also started his life with someone but he realised he didn't forget her and broke up with the relationship. She still create confusion . She didn't know to whom she had fallen in love with . what she wanted with her life and still messed with other two life . Toying with both of them feeling . Ultimately she left her boyfriend and started spending time with male lead . Drama get over.
NOT FOR ME.

🙄..... Seems like i just wasted my time watching this frustrating , depressing , negative, and toxic drama . Really frustrating leads who are surprisingly annoying specially Suyeong who acted like a robot throughout the drama . It seemed like they have got a pass to hurt others . Mr.Jeong and Migyeong didn't deserve to be treated like that 😭 . What did Sangsu liked about the boring rude lead . The only good thing thing was Mr.Jeong and migyeong moving on and being successful . Like seriously ......It all ended still questioning if what they felt was really love ...... 😒 Honestly It felt more like lust rather than love . Lastly , this drama could have just ended with 8 episodes so why drag so much . I'm so frustrated that i feel like watching Hotel del luna again so i could feel better .

It began nice but endet not really good.

One thing can definitely be said from the start and that is that this drama isn't for everyone. The story is told very slowly and could have been completed after 8 episodes.
In any case, it's positive that this drama is very close to reality. So problems and decisions that you and I could have made too. Love can be very complicated sometimes. The actors did an excellent job.
However, the story stuttered and nothing exciting happened. The reasons for the roles were sometimes no longer understandable. The ending was a disaster for me.
You basically wait for nothing.

Lenta, aburrida y con personajes inconsistentes

Leeeeeeenta como tortuga renga. Aburridísima. Capítulos enteros en los q no pasa naaaaaada. Miradas, silencios, recuerdos y mas recuerdos. Encima, personajes incomprensibles que actuan como si no tuvieran registro de la realidad. Que toman decisiines tóxicas innecesarias. Fue un enorme esfuerzo terminar de verla. Una pena. Tiene un gran elenco que hizo lo que pudo peeo no se.puede sacar jugo de las piedras. Amo a Yoo Yeon-seok desde Mr Sunshine así que la esperé con ansias. Quería que le fuera bien. Tenía grandes expectativas, pero hasta ahora es mi decepción del año. 😔😔😔😔😔

Narcissist personality disorder.

Thanks to the first review I read after I watched the episode, I just stopped watching!
I caught right away this Manipulative Perverse Narcissist behavior!
This is good to watch when you don't know how that works but for me, having been 16 years under a husband like that, I'm done!
I already saw she was a NPD after her reaction!! But had a doubt at first when he was waiting, she was late, and she told him she couldn't come then after she saw his face, sends him a text saying she was joking : typical NPD!!!
So if you don't want to see this because you are in such a relationship, don't even watch!
For me, after one episode, I'm done.
