You Have to Have Patience

The only thing I'm going to say about this show is that the ML Seo Ju Won (Moon Sang Min), the 2nd ML Seo Si Won (Yoon Park) and the 2nd FL Lee Mi Jin (Park So Jin) are great. In fact, the secondary couple carries this show and honestly, it should have just been about them. The FL Ha Yun Seo (Shin Hyun Been) was insufferable. Can't make up her mind, when she finally does, she screws that up, plus she was just generally unlikeable. Every drama, I try to take notes as I watch so I'll leave those below because I am not writing a whole review on this awful show. lol

So far this is alright. I chose it out of the many shows on my "Plan To Watch" list because I just finished A Shop For Killers and wanted something light, funny, and predictable.

So far I don't clock much chemistry between the FL Ha Yun Seo (Shin Hyun Been) and ML Seo Ju Won (Moon Sang Min) and I'm not sure if it's the way they're written, the acting, or the apparent large age gap between the two actors.

I am surprised at how quickly the show is moving in terms of the predictable plot. She's already been bought off by the MIL, already done the breaking up, he's already trying to win her back AND she's just admitted she does, in fact, still love him and that's just the first two episodes!!

Okay, I just checked because I was like, "Oh boy, if there are the usual 16 episodes of this then I know we're in for at least three separate things that will come between them.". It's only 10 episodes long but I'm guessing we still get two things. One will be another woman or man, and the other will be their own lack of communication. lol

Okay, I STRUGGLED to finish this. If it hadn't been only 10 episodes I definitely would've given up. The ML is great, the second couple are actually interesting, but the FL is insufferable. More so than the mother. At least the mother is up front and knows what she wants.
