    I was seriously too mad to be heartbroken.
    This is the first episode I straight-out HATED, and thought was pretty stupid from a writing perspective.
    The characters were all saying EXACTLY what’s wrong with the break-up… from JH’s dad, to Secretary Jang and JH himself. So why TF couldn’t the writer execute it that way and skip the very unnecessary angst? I think SH’s dad storyline and how that could affect Donghwa could’ve carried us fine into the finale!
    They just literally wasted a whole episode. UGH

    But I do appreciate that ending, and the consistency of JH’s character. He’s taking his own advice, and tbh Idk how many k-drama characters do that. 😂
    I also like the continuity of how whenever one half of our OTP looses faith in their relationship, the other one stays strong. Although, in this particular instance, I think they really should’ve been past that and going through things TOGETHER.

    Last but not least, fuck JH’s mom. Like WTF, no remorse???
    Girl, bye.

      His Mom was pure manipulation this episode and kudos to Jin hyuk’s Dad for not rolling over with her BS.

      Notice she was sleeping on the couch. Yeah, it wasn’t because she was waiting for her sons to get home.

        If only the moms in this show were as understanding, trusting and unbothered as the fathers.
        I’m seriously looking forwards to the day k-drama show that’s exclusively about romance shatters all the stupid tropes. BTLIOF was close, but then ruined in ep. 15 too. I was really counting on Boyfriend, but now it’s in the same category.

          I will only accept a breakup for stupid reasons if it comes before episode 8. Anything after…bothers me.
