A realistic drama about love, relationships, and marriages... but...
This kdrama started out perfect. Everything about it was great. Everyone was interesting and going through realistic struggles, such as being house poor, regular poor, sexual harassment and being the subject of workplace gossip, marriage and relationships etc. The show was slow paced but thought provoking and I really loved how everyone matured at the end, however, that's the problem, the ending.
Before we get to the ending we need to talk about one of the side couple, Yang Ho-rang and her boyfriend of 7 years, Sim Won-Seok. They were a couple that dated since college but had financial issues. As well as other relationship issues, the biggest one being that Ho-rang wants to get married while Won-Seok doesn't want to commit to it. They were in an on and off relationship (this is important). After Ho-rang finally spilled the beans on why she was so upset and after rubbing it in her boyfriend's face with things like "I won' have sex with you because we're not going to get married" the man finally proposed. However, like I said they had financial issues they couldn't get married until in 5 years. They eventually broke up and that moment felt so realistic for me. They had differences in what they want in the future and their relationship and realized that no amount of love can make up for it. I loved that couple so much for its realistic portrayals. They finally broke that cycle of being in an on and off relationship and they found someone who has compatible expectations for their relationships and future. Or so I thought. But in the most cliche and cringey moment at the end they realized they deep down love each other blah blah blah, a bunch of tears at the end. Except the relationship issues these two had did not go away, and they showed that no amount of love for each other can make up for that. I was so emotionally invested in the side couple. A show with one of the most realistic relationship got ruined in a 5 minute scene to the most cliche.
I also wished the show made. Yoon Ji-ho (our protagonist) resolved communication issues by... you know... communicating the communication issues by her husband/landlord Nam Se-Hee. Instead of throwing in a break up and seeing him go through it to see "how much he really loved me". That way we the writers could show us Woo Soo-Ji getting into the career she is truly passionate about and not be subjected to sexual harassment.and gossip. That girl was finally achieving her dreams, but instead of showing that they showed the aftermath of the breakup and makeup.
I had such high expectations for this show and if they didn't ruin it with the last 2 episodes it would've been one of my top shows of all time.
