this episode might be my first favorite because it handles the issue of marriage head-on and not delicately to the point it's almost not touched upon. a main female role whose stance on marriage is unconventional -- at least still is in current society -- gives me a huge validation. i've checked who the screenwriter is, and since it's a woman, i'm really hoping in the future episodes tami doesn't give up on her personal choice of not marrying. a woman's worth isn't based on her relationship status, and just like she said, i don't want her to force herself to marry just to appease her partner then end up regretting it later. i hope this drama doesn't end up with tami magically transforming her entire belief and cave in to marry morgan because isn't it ~every woman's dream~. anyways, marriage /should/ be discussed before adults get into relationships, as the other person is also a human being who has feelings that might differ from our own, if you decide to commit this is someone you will need to spend so much time on and with. it's a nice message that the drama is trying to send, it's pointed out more than a few times as well. i also saw someone saying the male characters are weak, but so far i disagree, though i still don't find any of the male characters notable. after all, isn't this drama mainly focused on the main three gorgeous and strong female characters? strong shouldn't be characterized by being stubborn, tough, or physical ability. so what if they're kind, they let the female characters with many things? there is strength in being kind, and they're not doing it to suck up to anyone, which is the more authentic it feels. male characters who are soft is refreshing to see, anyway, and it doesn't hinder the plotline at all.
