Painful to watch

never written a review on mdl before but then again I've never hated a kdrama more than this. Bora finds her shitty bf cheating on her and then begs him to take her back?? not just once, but multiple times! painful to watch. she sobs uncontrollably for days/weeks about their breakup. also, the show approvingly quotes Donald Trump which is laughable. none of the characters feel like real people! the best friend is mad at her husband for something serious and he buys her a purse and suddenly she wasn't mad anymore?? it's like a parody of how women behave. I went into this show very excited and it just completely makes no sense

Edit: i will also say that it wasn't clear that Bora even liked her boyfriend at the beginning, she just wanted to marry someone and this guy "had it all." so i thought once she realized "oh wait, maybe i didn't even like him, i just wanted to marry someone who looked good on paper" that she would get over him and move on. but through 7 episodes, that never happened. she continued to sob over him! the show seemingly hates Bora because after all of the mess with her ex bf, she is then a victim of a phishing scam, which scammed her and her friends out of a lot of money. there was very little going right in her life which made it hard to watch and not entertaining. the side characters also didn't interest me very much. The publisher guy seemingly being attracted to the young temp was also weird and creepy to me. im not sure if thats where the show went with that plot line because i stopped watching but it creeped me out to watch their flirting. Bora's friend seems to be in a horrible marriage but doesn't seem to realize it. i dont even know if the show realizes how bad their marriage is! having a "hideout" place from your spouse is not a good thing! again, i really wanted to like this show and i kept watching it, thinking it'd get better and it never did.
