    LOL. A professional hazard for dedicated beanies every time a wave of similar plots takes over dramaland. Just recently, I couldn’t remember who was the illegitimate chaebol heir in which drama, or who was the reincarnated lover of whom.

    This is funny, in a way, but not. I’ve found it a little sad, as a very happily married man for nearly 40 years, that in this current crop of kdramas, all husbands are bad. Even in Wedding Impossible, where its just a secondary element of the plot, the killer of the mother is the husband. While the cheating husband is a staple of melodramas, dating back to the 19th century, still this current crop of kdramas suggests that something is very wrong with marriage, at least in kdrama writers eyes!

      yeah, they all have secret lovers — usually someone super close to their wives, hellooo… but ya know, it actually happens alot, especiallly in japan i’m told… they say the wives expect it and don’t care? cuz they are taken care of, and just focus on the kids? is this true??

        “they say the wives expect it and don’t care”.

        This actually makes sense to me.
        Tbh, I never found this trope weird since I grew up hearing things like that all the time.

        At first, the wives reactions in kdramas were the most interesting part to me, since they “should’ve seen it coming”.

        It took me a while to understand other kind of perspectives.

      Strangely enough, as much as those shows throw every marriage under the bus, they are weirdly close minded of its end. As in, the husband might literally be a murderer, but you know what else he is? A CHEATER. If the former is needed for the plot, the latter is somehow what warrantees divorce.

    An intense and untimely case of “same plot, different delivery” 😬

    I just finished ep 6 Hide. Really, it’s so wild messy psycho. Killing people is just a side note to everyone’s personal agendas. The husband Cha Sung Jae and the creepy neighbor lady Ha Yeon Joo deserve each other. As do Cha Sung Jae’s parents . And the cliff hanger – sheesh! I don’t see any real redeeming qualities, past or present, of anyone at this point except maybe Jin Woo .

    i should’ve learned from when i was watching 3 sageuks, and there were actors/actresses in two or even all three – daegumama, right ministers, left ministers, guards, etc… i didn’t know who was King in which, etc.

    wasn’t there the same “mother” in It Happened in the Rain and One Spring NIght, but one was evil/awful and her role in the other was sweet?

    i am too old to keep track anymore… i need to just watch ONE DRAMA at a time, omg….

      Rhat has been a happening so nce I negan drama viewing about a decade ago – the same actor in dramas I watched simultaneously- and yes it’s super confusing and sometimes funny to realize you’ve mixed them up unawares!
