I’m addicted to this drama. It started slow but it’s getting better and better. I still don’t know what’s going to happened in the end. Great acting by Ryu Soo Young for potraying an abusive husband. It’s a good melodrama. Loved this drama.

Looks like an interesting melodrama with a good cast.

The scandal of Han did this drama an injustice. Ryu Soo Young is superb. And hyun too, great as usual. So many good & attractive actors here. Going to enjoy this drama.

Park ha na is such a good actress. She sets the tone for the character

Had to stop watching. Sheer stupid writing. The abusive husband threatens to kill himself in Russian roulette style. You would think the wife should be jumping for joy. This is her opportunity to be rid of the abuse once and for all. But what does the writer get her to do?? Mari goes into overdrive trying to stop the abuser from killing himself?! WTF. Enough of this dumb drama!

I enjoyed the first 10 episodes. That’s all. The writers need to improve. In reality, people don’t become more & more stupid.

Ling, I couldn’t agree more & to make it dumber, Dr Seo picks up the gun & puts it to his head.

The story about violence but I find it weird as the main actress acted so cowardly in front of her violent husband. I never seen such a stupid woman who acted so foolish and cowardly from beginning to end…the drama and story is quite weird to me. When you watched this drama, you felt like that woman the main actress is so stupid all the way…
