Started it for Jisoo, Stayed for Amber

Amber was the only rational person in this drama, she was understanding, pure, nonjudgmental and she went after what she wanted but she didn't take hwan's bs and called him out for it, honestly I wonder how she was written by that same writer xDeveryone else just loves to inflict pain and suffering onto themselves and call it "love".yeji loved to play the victim card "why are you back to ruin my peace", "I'm the most miserable woman on earth"hwan was crazy enough to say "I want to ruin my life" for someone who keeps refusing him, "I want to suffer", the dude had alot of problems ;/jin was all sad and wallowing in self pity and he diverted all his angst onto controlling othersthe mom is honestly so distant she doesn't deserve to be a momand the dad looks nice but again yet he only used hwan as his caregiver then yeji as the substituteyeji's mom is living through the pain that was "unshcokingly" done becasue of yejiyeji's aunt is crazy and overdramaticand they had the audacity of wasting time on the side side characters and their messed up romanceso basically Amber is the only normal person, she's sweet, fun loving and she's adorable and naturally cute and happy, the only time hwan genuinely smiled was when he was around her.in the end they just added more ridiculous plot line after the other and they literally ended it with "I shouldn't have done that" ;/yeji was wrong for accepting the marriage but she was even more wrong for fueling hwan's feelings and then she had the audacity to act as if hwan only "noticed" her good deeds while she was the one leading him on ;/and with everything, in the last ep they were crying over how they can't be together, just to let them reunite and then go back to "we can't be together" and cry some more. it should've ended by ep31 but it should've just stayed as a noona romance with small doses of brotherly rivalry like a normal kdrama xDthis is what happens when they hire a horrible writer with zero planning skills...
