Most of the characters lack depth. How did ML's older brother not know that his mother had abandoned him? Why did he lie about his leg disability? This type of attitude does not match the attitude that a CEO of a conglomerate should have. Why would he hate a brother who did nothing to him so much? This type of plot doesn't make sense... Why wasn't FL's mother more careful about covering her crimes and abuse if she was so careful about her own art gallery? How is FL's father simply forgiven for his complete disregard for his adopted daughter? Does not make sense. If he was a bad father and if FL has very deep traumas, how can she smile and sit next to her father and grandfather as if nothing happened? When writers diminish the pain of a trauma to that level, it's as if they take away the meaning of all the suffering FL went through... The only more plausible situation is FL with the biological mother. Furthermore, the performance of FL's younger sister is extremely irritating...
This plot would have been much more interesting if ML hadn't suffered the same fate as FL, hadn't had another chance.
The story focuses on the life of FL. Placing ML as someone who also has a new chance weakens FL's story. The accident scene is pathetic. Where was the truck driver to save them both? There are a lot of holes in this story and a lot of it was conveniently written. Furthermore, it is important to note that it is strange that ML accepted a false marriage contract and then started hitting on FL, who was in a situation of psychological and domestic violence with her family (mother and sister). ML seems to be a very selfish person, so how could he think it was reasonable to impose his "love" on FL knowing that she was going through a very difficult time. In this way, he seems to indirectly charge FL for the "love" he gives her (a toxic behavior).
I also found it unnecessary to force a pregnancy on plot at the end because FL practically lives under the function of serving someone (and having children requires giving yourself to someone else). She has nothing interesting, she doesn't show any ambition, no clear professional ambition. If she is a painter, why doesn't she teach art classes? Why don't they show her starting her relationship with ML again but in a normal way and without being in a marriage that was fake in the beginning? Anyway, there are many problematic points. The series only saves itself because it is gratifying to watch bad people suffer the consequences of their actions, lol.
The soundtrack is beautiful and the production is well done, but it's not worth watching again. Finally, it seems like a plot written by a teenager and a form of pro-marriage propaganda from the South Korean government lol
