I remember how much time I've spent by watching it at the time.
The story is still more for public adult, not for strange scenes but because isn't a teen drama.
This one has a really difficult story at the beginning, but slowly fades into something really more simple based on action, twist, families problems and much more! In 2012 this kind of story was new if compard to dramas like Boys Over Flowers and similar.
Really liked it and still have a favorite spot into my heart!!

From one abuser to another
My primary issue with this isn't the acting, though the male lead is either terribly written or terribly acted, but because of the biggest issue with this series. Unable to decide if it wants to be a revenge romance, a soap or a romantic comedy, it fails on all, and worst of all, because of the total acceptance of the way the male lead abuses the female lead. There is isolation, there is forced dependency, there is gaslighting at every larger emotional expression from the female lead. It's so clear that you can see the entire cycle of abuse, abandonment/hatred and love bombing. It's disgusting. She is already a woman abused. I kept hoping she'd eventually realise that he's terrible and leave, but nothing seems to imply that she will, from the set up to the character "development".If you have experienced abuse, are ignorant of abuse depictions in media, or don't want to feed yourself toxic garbage, don't waste your time.

becoming a villain to catch a villain
I tried to watch this drama several times but I couldn't. I really tried, and every time it was as if something was blocking me. I felt very annoyed because I didn't understand WHY: this drama is so well scored here and I couldn't find my interest in it. I put it on hold for several months then stumbled upon a video on youtube...this was this drama's recap. in 1 hour. as I already watched the first 4 episodes, I could evaluate the rightness of the recap. and it was very good. so I watched it instead, and faced the same problem: I really really don't like this drama. I can't watch it. and as it was very fast and clearly explained, I understood why:
in order to get revenge and catch her ex-husband, the MFL became a villain herself. it was like watching the birth of a bad person. it was unsettling and sad. it was like driving slowly in order to see every details of the car accident you are passing by. that's really something I hate and I don't do that.
so if you love bad people to be rewarded, just watch it. and if you want to know if you could love this drama too, with the recap, the name of the video is "from an ugly girl to a beautiful goddess", on youtube. if you like it, just stop watching and go for the real thing, if not, it will save you some time.
as for me, I wouldn't recommend.
