A complete waste of time.

I hate this kind of drama; it carries all the wrong tropes. Honorable mentions:

1- Two immature, emotionally constipated male rivals, with a woman at the center of their little self-worth.

2- Timid women, "I must endure and sacrifice for others (mostly men)". Typical, traditional female figures who are literally there for the males' emotional support. They fill the missing mother role, they're literally just there as emotional garbage cans. Geun Young and In Hyung are written as incompetent women, they're bad at their thing, they're less than average at best at their jobs and unable to make/maintain a career. They're failures in their own lines of work, they're dismissed, overlooked, undermined, and patronized.
Furthermore, the men are given careers, statues, professionality, and over all respect of others. The women's characters center around them being overlooked and dismissed but they "hold on" and "push through". That's it that's their whole characters, they're only loved for how they're dumb and beneath the men in a "cute" way as if it's a thing!
Who Joon has absolutely no respect for Geun Young, he treats he badly, he speaks to her with hash language, he speaks informally always while she speaks formally, he has no trust or faith in her whatsoever and believes what others tell him? He acts like an oversized man baby and a total jerk, but she still falls for him of course. He's blinded by ego, selfishness, emotional instability, and trauma. LITTERALLY IF THE MEN GO TO THERAPY THE DRAMA WOULD PROBABLY BE BETTER???????????????? JUST GO TO THERAPY! I literally don't understand how people write such characters who are well into their 20s and 30s but behave like 6-year-olds??????

3- Oh my God the controlling men in this drama!!!!!!

4- Over use of tropes in general! The drama throws in ten thousand over dated troops: he's a jerk that's deep down actually "nice", mother doesn't care for him, father is missing with a small stupid lead behind. Best friends that hate each other over a girl, rivals because of the girl and their personal success. Other guy also hates his family and himself.

JUST GO TO THERAPY PLEASE GOOD GOD! AND LEAVE WOMEN ALONE THEY'RE NOT YOUR TRAUMA BANKS! YOU CAN’T JUST CASH IN YOUR TRAUMA IN WOMEN????????????? I HATE DRAMAS LIKE THIS SO MUCH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
