The female lead gave me a headache
I found this kdrama extremely boring, the story made no sense to me, the actors were excellent
THE STORY: (4/10)
>>The story makes no sense. To be pecise, I hated the female lead for I found her to be childish, dumb, mean and not realistic.
1.Why I can’t think she is a realistic character instead I consider her a dumb character:
You have the female lead who is supposingly dying, only caring about getting revenge on her boss who “has amnesia”. She doesn’t care about any potential treatment, getting a second opinion from another doctor or doing something memorable for her last moments. She also tells no one. She just stupidly wishes to torment the person who is to “blame” for her sickness, disregarding personal responsibility for her own health as well. That’s why sometimes I would even forget she is even dying.
2. Why she is dumb and childish
Secondly, she is the one who chose to withstand the abuse from her boss for an entire year, instead of just quitting like her predecessors did. I do believe that the ml is to blame as well . But he was an ass****e and that’s it. He was feeling ok with himself. But she is the one who choose not to chase her dream following a different route. She insisted getting that dream job of hers in THAT company KNOWING how her boss treats everyone including herself. I just can’t overlook the personal responsibility she had to take care of herself (visiting the hospital sooner, not staying in a toxic environment, not being a pushover etc)
3. Why I believe she is undeserving of being the female lead in the story
And here comes the third point. She had the freedom to consciously make a different choice, like quitting her job but she didn’t. On the other hand, the ml had no choice but to believe her lies. I don’t think that it matters whether he truly had amnesia or not, because SHE WASNT aware that he still had his memories. Therefore it seemed to me that she wanted to torment a sick person who had almost gotten murdered , and manipulate him into believe her lies. When she had a choice to quit and was in her right mind. Like what? Imagine waking up from a coma to find out even though you don’t have a family, you still have a fiancée who cares about you. And then surprise! She just wanted to get revenge on you. That is not the equivalent to what he did to her. She was in her right mind, had already seen signs of her health deteriorating (her hair would fall off, she needed pills etc) and accepted the consequences of working there. But he was a sick person, whom she exploited because she didn’t care about the consequences since she was dying. How is this ok?
>>Therefore I couldn’t find the plot funny, because it was so silly. A dying woman who prefers feeding the ml onions instead of cherishing her last moments.
THE ACTORS: (10/10)
The actors were splendid! Acting was good and believeable.
THE MUSIC (5/10)
It was good, nothing memorable to be honest.
