Didn't enjoy the ending.
I loved this drama. Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung are fantastic. They were out of this world good.
I hate that I can't give this show a higher rating than an 8.5. For how much I enjoyed the characters, the couple, everything, it just ruins itself at the end for so much of the last three episodes that it's more like you're being tortured than entertained.
Choices are made based on family pressures and other people's happiness that just feel like suffering to suffer from the FL. Which, okay. But if you're going to have one of the love interests cause the other one such pain and then think the audience should still root for that character to find happiness with them at the end... idk!
The male family members of both families are trash. The show attempts to redeem them at the very end, but it's just not possible. These three characters are portrayed to care only for their own happiness and come off as just vile creatures moving through the story to cause nothing but heartache and pain to the main couple. They just make the couple suffer, until the end when whelp change of heart... proving all the suffering they've put the characters through was unnecessary, even illogical. But what can ya do! Gotta have that easy conflict.
My biggest pet peeve is having characters do awful, awful things and then trying to redeem them right at the end. Such a bad trope imo. So frustrating, and often rushed and unearned. I adored the main couple, and really felt betrayed by what they did to that relationship in the final three episodes.
