Thank you @NiteWalker! So it looks like we are getting close to a confession! I really hope so!! Looking forward to all these kisses!!

@Tofu what is happening in these previews? It looks like there will be some angst.

@abs-oluteM yay! You started watching! Lol so true! It’s amazing how he even had the time to take off his jacket before grabbing her. also, why was the 2nd ML lead on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere that night in the rain?! Lol @Yana I didn’t even realize they were wearing the same silk pyjama until you shared that!

oh yay! You’re watching too? I am also all for the kissing scenes.

@Tofu there’s no such thing as too many kissing scenes so I’m all for it I’ve already seen all 10 episodes that are available so far. I personally don’t really care for Yin Si Chen’s friends’ arc so I just FF through all his scenes. Yin Si Chen’s adorable grandmother makes up for Xi Xi’s annoying grandmother. I am curious to find out what happens when Yin Si Chen’s mother finds out about the contract marriage. The dad is on board for now at least.

I love how Xi Xi's ex and Xi Wei's strategy to stir something up between Yin Si Chen and Xi Xi failed. Unexpectedly, Xi Xi ends up praising Yin Si Chen's physical attributes as well as his character - much to Yin Si Chen's pleasure. LOL he even took a photo! Ran Xi Wei is sooooo annoying! I'm so glad that despite all her efforts, Yin Si Chen always defends Xi Xi and only sees Xi Xi. Despite his seemingly cold facade, Yin Si Chen actually cares about Xi Xi and always has her back.

Wow, what a twist! So as it turns out, Du-Sik lost his hyung.. an upper classman who treated him like a brother. Although unclear yet as to what led to his death, it looks like the wife blamed Du Sik. Also, what a surprise that Du Sik is connected to the director's dad! It looks like a number of unfortunate things befell all these people surrounding Du Sik and somehow he was blamed for them and he feels responsible. No wonder he's been holding on to all that guilt and feels he doesn't deserve Hye Jin. Can't wait to find out what really happened. As for Hwa-Jeong and Yong-Geuk, what a beautiful scene between them. I cried too! Can't say I'm surprised about the Cho Hui, I suspected as much right from the beginning. Eun Chul and Mi Seon are so cute together!

Ugh, I cannot stand Xi Xi's dad and grandmother. They're so ridiculous and every time they appear on scene, I get so mad. The grandmother is even worse than the father!

I haven't seen The Imperial Coroner but I do like him in this one so far. I'm only on ep 3 but I'm enjoying it. Do check it out when you have time!

It looks like there's going to be a lot of kissing in this one

Deng Lun is in this one?! COUNT ME IN! LOVE HIM! So glad to see him in another drama. I've missed him

Started watching episode 1 and so far, I like it. I like that Gu Xi Xi is quick-witted and is smart enough to keep up with the Yin Si Chen's tactics. I am sucker for contract marriages turning into real love. Yi Bai Chen plays the 2nd Lead (Mo Zi Xin). Last time I saw him was in Well Intended Love. It looks like he has a childhood encounter with the Female Lead - Gu Xi Xi.

The photos for this drama are really pretty. I'm not personally familiar with the leads but I think they look good together. Photo CR: MyDramaList

Finally got to watch the rest of ep 6 with subs. So true! The fact that someone could mistake it for garbage was telling... LOL Moo Hak's half-brother is soooo annoying and so is the mom! I really hope the dad wisens up and realizes he is being played. It's funny how Moo Hak is basically the smart one in the family who is actually the reason for their success. I chuckled when the dad said "moving that kind of money with Moo Hak finding out...." again just shows that Moo Hak is the brains behind the business and is very knowledgeable. I really hope Won Tak remains as just Dali's oppa and doesn't become romantically involved. Would love to see Moo Hak and Won Tak develop a friendship. I think the combination of the two of them backing Dali would be awesome.

I agree with you on this one. I love the leads but apart from them, there aren’t any other likeable characters. And yes, the only other interesting person is WT. I actually find the gallery employees annoying. As for Dali’s ex, yes, I also don’t understand why he waited so long if his plan was always to win her back at some point. I would like to also know what led to the break up, what he asked her for in the past. I also don’t agree with Dali using him for his money. I haven’t quite gotten to this part yet due to lack of subs but I understood as much when I skimmed through it. I don’t know if she was doing it out of revenge or if she’s doing it out of desperation since her backs against the wall so to speak.

Okay I’m going to check it out since I have time waiting for new episodes and subs.

Just finished watching ep 5 and part of ep 6 (still waiting for the rest of the subs). I’m glad that Dali admitted that it was foolish of her to have been carrying around that sum of money because I was actually thinking the same. If I had that kind of cash, I would immediately be putting it in the bank or at least not taking it out in the open for others to see. She didn’t even hide it when she was paying for the motel. But this just goes to show that she’s naive and inexperienced when it comes to the realities of the world. I have to admit I sympathized with her employees when they criticized her for wearing designer clothing when she couldn’t even afford to pay their salaries. I wish, though, that Dali would be more forthright with her struggles instead of opting to keep it all to herself. By keeping the truth about her struggles from them, she’s only giving them opportunities to misunderstand her. As for Moo Hak, at times I want to smack him in the back of his head and sometimes I just want to hug him because I find him adorable. I do wish he had just offered his place when she didn’t have anywhere to go. I loved his reaction to having found out about the robbery and when he saw her bruises… you could tell he really cared for her. In ep 6, I laughed out loud when Moo Hak woke up from sleep (I thought he had perhaps heard Dali upstairs or something) and as it turns out, he had just remembered that he left a light on. The way he quickly gets up, turns it off and happily goes back to sleep was just so Moo Hak to the core. Honestly find his penny pinching ways so adorable. Also, the scene where he tries to call Dali and her phone is vibrating right above him… LOLOL! I can’t believe it didn’t occur to him that she’s upstairs! anyway, I have yet to watch the rest of ep 6 with subtitles so this is it for now. Really loving this one so far.

@mademoiselle lol I haven’t seen any of his other dramas which is why I’m not familiar with him. Okay, I’ll join you in watching this one. I saw it’s coming on Netflix.

LOL the character chart is so complicated! This looks interesting. Not familiar with the ML though. Has he starred in any other dramas?

Episode 4.... I am so curious to find out the story behind the scar! Sakisaka obviously likes Naho but is holding back for some reason. I love that he was willing to protect her at all costs. I also admired the fact that despite being so naive, she still had the smarts to recognize that her ex was taking advantage of Sakisaka and she made it so that Sakisaka didn't have to be bullied. I am so sad about her hair but I have to say she's so pretty that she looks great even with short hair. The preview for ep 5 looks interesting. Can't wait for Sakisaka to admit to himself how much he likes Naho.

@abs-oluteM ugh, I cannot wait to watch the next episode! Still not available on Viki and even ep 5 is not fully subbed yet The love pentagon comment made me laugh! That back hug was so sweet though and I cannot wait for Dali and Moo Hak to start working together. I totally agree with Moo Hak's business strategy. Even though he's not as literate or as "educated" as everyone else, he is quite smart and knowledgeable when it comes to running a business and managing finances. I also like that he seems to have a good work-life balance in that he's against working overtime LOL I love that when he found Dali at the gallery, he scolded her for the electricity she was using. I cannot wait to see everyone's reactions when they find out the connection between Dali, Moo Hak and the brother.

@abs-oluteM I skimmed through ep 5 but without subtitles, I can’t understand anything. It looks like Da Li got robbed and hurt at the motel she was staying in which is why she had bruises all over. But since I didn’t really watch the entire episode, I don’t know if it’s the same guy who had broken into the gallery at the end of ep 4. I like that fact that Moo Hak wears his heart on his sleeve and in some ways it’s adorable at how impulsive he is. I know this likely isn’t such a good trait in the long run but I love that he just says what he thinks. It gets him in trouble for sure but at least you know where you stand with him.

Ep 5 airing today! It’s not available yet on Viki but I’m keeping an eye on it.
