Yes, but I thought you were predicting HI getting it twice.. HW getting it will be on-brand I agree, as both of them will get the ‘fall in love again’ and ‘Newlywed’ moments again. But I would have preferred kickass and self-aware HI going back into ‘MY HUSBAND’ mode, even if she was doing it without the memories (After all, as HW said, he would remember them for her)
The one up side is that everyone from both families will be on board with them getting together, and we might possibly get some family- or secretary- contrived meet cutes
@panshel @mazarin is right, we were talking about HI and didn’t think that HW might get the “amnesia” treatment also, LOL. But that goes hand in hand to the conversation they had in Germany when she said that she will be the angel to help him out. Or something like that, I don’t remember clearly.
Everything has been done to the extreme but now it’s given to us at superfast speed so we don’t think about the many impossible flaws this scenario has at the end.
I know it won’t be the My Dearest Lee Jang-hyun treatment, but it would still be two amnesias in one drama. (But it’s all moot now that I’ve finished the final episode.)
I will probably watch the final episode- but at the moment I am vacillating about watching it, because I am scared that it will just be more train wreck.
@mazarin
Ep. 16 was better than the last few ones, specially the second half. It tied pretty good most of the loose endings. I think you should watch it if you survived this long. All of the actors did a fabulous job.
@mazarin
I didn’t say it was good, I said that it was better 😏 And that was not one of the loose ends that got tied. But some others got mentioned, like the miscarriage, a few scenes were added (but still not enough). The evil mother-son got closure, I am OK with how that went. It did have a few potholes, it did maintain the same note, of course, but less of it than in previous episodes. I don’t want to spoil it to much for you.
I felt the middle part got better but it started to fall apart after episode 10. There so many things that made you wonder how or why the writer-nim chose to go with them because it defied logic.
Seemed that this writer-nim wanted really hard to outdo MD writer.
Watch episode 10, its epic. Watch all the epilogues, they are done well. (They won’t have quite the same effect if you haven’t watched the relevant bit in the episode, but they are still good)

QOT ep.15
It’s like watching a car crash…I know I shouldn’t but I can’t stop from checking out the damage…

They are going to give him amnesia too, aren’t they? Oh I hope I am wrong…

That would be so on brand for this show, and @Kodra we predicted it. https://www.dramabeans.com/2024/04/drama-viewership-ratings-for-the-week-of-april-15-21-2024/#comment-4186483

Hmm… we must at least finally find out Why the Mistress targeted them, because I don’t see any frustrated howls about it from people 🙂

I stopped watching by Episode 4. Should I finish? I just want to know the ending.

I only liked the flashbacks in the first 4 episodes. I will use the FF button and have a fun love/hate watch. Or just read the recaps.

I finished the last episode! It was not as bad as I expected. Ditch the humor and the secondary characters, and behold the best melodrama of 2004!
