There were so many red flags in this drama! Maybe this was 'acceptable' in 2004, but you wouldn't see this type of story line now. The slap!!!! Just because the ML was mad at the FL for leaving. If a guy is violent over this, he'll probably be violent every time he's mad. The ML was also so demanding and controlling, forcing the FL to do everything he wanted and demanded. ML dragged the FL around and forced her to get a car and brought her to a hotel when she didn't want to. I don't know how this is romantic... Also, when you wake up while holding someone and realize you overslept, you don't just throw the person you were holding onto the floor!!!! This is what the ML did to FL in episode 10! After the slap, the drama just started to go downhill. I guess the writers made it seem like the ML changed for the worse after the FL left?!?
