Romanticized codependency masked as love & healing

No character development, just need to believe in the power of love and everything will work out fine, coz why not they love each other but the problem is that's not love. It's not that it's impossible to heal, save a relationship, etc. but the writer portrayed the ML as too toxic and their relationship too emotionally abusive, codependent, lacks respect & honesty, etc. and then couldn't write how he could be a better boyfriend, just let the girlfriend accept him coz she loves him kind of story, miss each other, love each other, kiss & make up, call it a day.

Very poor portrayal of DID. Often these mental health issues are portrayed poorly but this is just stupid & hopefully doesn't bring a lot of negative impact for those who are actually trying to heal from it, coz the portrayal is trash so let's just not reference it, ever.

Just putting all the conflicts in all aspects of life, family, love, workplace altogether but when it's all messy, there's only 2 episodes left to clean up, let's just assume everything will be fine, pray that the leads chemistry & acting will save it (no chemistry for me, honestly it was disgusting to watch, but I wanted to finish it & review).

Focused on cliffhangers and reaction-baiting-scenes but the overall story messy. If only the writer focus more on the story, then maybe it would've worked out, but it just didn't work out, it's hated, congratulations.

If you enjoyed it, I can't understand how. But good for you. I hated it, enough for me to write a review when I usually just drop dramas I don't like & move on.
