I started liking it but currently there is a situation that makes me feel uncomfortable. I have read that in the Venezuelan version it had an ending, different from the one in the US version, but here we don’t know what it will be. In any case, everything indicates that the secondary, remains secondary… Other than that, the story shows many hilarious comedy situations and, strangely, the protagonist goes well with the acting style of Im Soo Hyang, which to me is not exactly a great range of interpretation. Oh Woo Ri is a naive girl, but not insecure or shy, she grew up surrounded by the love of her mother and grandmother who have made her feel safe and blessed, something that Raphael, no matter how CEO she is, has never had. Her father supports the woman he wants to divorce in everything, and every decision of his in business requires the acceptance of her father. Oh Woo Ri and violent crimes detective Lee Kang Jae had a barely “sweaty little hand” love relationship, each Oh Woori’s attempt to advance was rejected by Lee Kang Jae, who is convinced that he must respect the promise of chastity of his girlfriend, as a way to show his love for her. Meanwhile Oh Woo Ri, gives him all the clues that indicate that she is ready for the next step, and even the detective’s partners, aware of the whole matter, urge him to take the next step and he… He just regrets every single step. “daring” thought you have!! Lee Kang Jae is so loyal that he even supports his girlfriend when she decides to have a stranger’s child, but things start to go wrong as the pregnancy progresses, Lee Kang Jae realizes that his girlfriend’s unexpected pregnancy is changing them. both and Raphael’s relationship with Oh Woo Ri and her family is becoming closer, while he is being left out. Suddenly, the breakup between the two arrives, I don’t know if I didn’t understand because of the subtitles or what happened here, but I didn’t understand why she leaves him… A lie from him is enough for him not even to give her the opportunity to explain himself? The situation is not their fault! And in any case, she’s not perfect either. The only thing that results from this breakup is that the protagonists are now free to start a relationship, they were able to handle it better, why do they make it so predictable and unfair? Then, Lee Kang Jae focuses on chasing down a criminal who has used a hospital owned by Raphael’s family as a lair, which has brought them into conflict recently. And, Raphael’s wife hides someone who can destroy her image as a wife in love with her father-in-law, of course she has also hidden other little things, I understand that this girl is very lucky and a mother who is capable of anything to make her daughter continue Belonging to a family with a lot of money. Lastly, romantic relationships begin to develop for Oh Woo Ri’s mother and grandmother, and our protagonist’s father appeared in his life trying to take the place he hasn’t had in his life. Although he is welcome, Woo Ri’s mother refuses to formalize a relationship with him, fearing that if they fail, it will hurt her daughter. But in reality, Oh Woo Ri is stronger than her family thinks of her and they haven’t asked her how she would feel about it, they just protect her from her as if she were a little girl when she is already an adult. 29 years old !! Anyway, the story has its good points and its dramatic licenses to accommodate the Korean style, I haven’t seen any of the other versions so it’s impossible for me to make comparisons. But hey, if you see it with good eyes and you want to entertain yourself, it can be a good option.
