Creation of relationships was absolutely nonexistent

I had such high hopes for this drama even after I read the synopsis. I thought it would be a ‘fl’s sister dies and she comes back a year or two later revenge’ type of thing, but no. The get married after what feels like a week after the sister died. I won’t lie, the only good thing this drama had, was a good cast, but even then it still flopped.

Okay so we got fl sister who is married to ml. She dies and fl is mad so she goes ml and tells home to marry her because he doesn’t believe his mother killed his wife. I understand the intention on fl’s part, but the main thing was why wouldn’t ml believe fl even when he knew his mother’s manipulation streak. Set that aside, did he even love his wife? For someone who claimed to love her, he was the only one at her funeral who seemed to not be grieving over her death. He went home, asked his mom about the accusations, and slept without even shedding a tear or showing any signs that he even cared about her death. He had moved on from her death hours after her funeral.

Now his actions send us into the marriage part. Which kind of dumbass would really do this? And like ml’s mother even ask the question, “his wife just died and he married her sister ?” I’m sorry what? I was absolutely disgusted from this whole situation and to make matters worse, ml started flirting with fl which was completely inappropriate considering the fact that not much time had passed since sister’s death and they were both supposed to be in the grieving process….that is if ml ever loved his wife in the first place.

Next, drama’s shouldn’t put babies on screen if the can’t understand how to operate them. How the hell is baby supposedly attached to his father when his father was basically nonexistent for most of his life and when daddy dearest dies decide to come back, all he does is hold the baby, kisses it, doubles it and gives it to the next person. Not one scene is shown of this man actually spending his time with his son apart from just kissing him, like I get they are trying to show that he loves his kid but like, there are so many other actions that are needed in order to identify as a good father and one his baby is fond of. What happens to playing with the kid? Oh he kisses it, it starts crying, he give it the care taker. Lmao I don’t even understand how he had a relationship with his kid to the point where people went “ oh I think he misses his dad”. How can he when all dad does is kiss him once and then hand over the next person, how is there any space for an intimate father/son relationship.

I won’t get really into the unrealistic forgiveness plots, or the unresolved problems, or the fact that now fl and ml’s mother are suddenly besties. What I will tell you is that get ready for a very long ride full of nonsensical nonsense. For every episode I watched, I thought it’d get better in the next. In other words, if you do plan on watching, think of this drama as joke….maybe your brain won’t bleed as much from the stupidity induced brain damage you can suffer from while watching this seriously 🙂
