Ridiculousness and a drunk drama

For it was a wasted time, how did people muster up the courage to rewatch this drama more than once? I finished it because I don't really like dropping a drama that I already started. I guess it was the norm then in 2013 or 2014 to make female leads stupid, weak and cringe in drama, just like this one. The female was super annoying and had no respect for herself. Let's not talk about the alcohol in the drama, no episode without an alcohol and that our female lead doesn't get drunk. I hated it because of alcohol because let's be realistic alcohol doesn't make everything OK. The drama portrayed so many things. It didn't give the female lead a chance to grow up and be dependent on herself. Then ilthey were making dramas like this and unfortunately in this new decade it's just another norm albeit differently in another style. They all knew how to act but the storyline was useless and unnecessary.

Hmm I don't know, I have high hopes with this drama and I was disapointed. Maybe if I would watch this second time it would be better. Maybe someday...

Trite

A clingy, female lead with zero self-respect is not what I want in a drama. Add to that the most basic plot that has been done multiple times and one wonders how the writers could mess it up so badly. I'm sorry, but this was unappealing.

A love triangle features prominently, so this show can only be so good in the first place

I need to preface this with a confession: I am extremely allergic to love triangles and pentagrams or whatever you want to call them. I get severe headaches and upset stomach from all the cheating-adjacent shenanigans involved in every single love triangle. Second male leads are what k-dramas add when they don't have enough restraint or creativity and can't trust their ability to make good surrounding drama. This show has at least two full hour-long episodes worth of skippable BS of the side characters being manipulative and awful and the main two for some reason refusing to cut them out of their lives. I particularly hate the chef guy in this show; bro, just go jump in a lake or move to America, I don't want to see a second of you. I wish they released an alt version of this show without all the frustrating love triangle nonsense getting in the way of the main couple's relationship. The main two and the drama with the parents are well done, but the story wastes so much time on awful characters who deserve zero screen time whatsoever.
