Comments

Frankie Dec 17 2025 11:29 pm Totally agree with Unfortunate. It's a messy script with lousy directing. FL becomes stupid every now and then despite her character as a bodyguard seeking revenge for her 'dead husband'

Zaaa Dec 05 2025 6:20 pm This is actually a very good kdrama. I hesitated at first since some comments said it was “the worst kdrama”, but genuinely im so glad i watched it, it was really good and a very fun drama to watch! Loved the plot twists and all the characters!

Chamonks Nov 16 2025 2:35 am This drama's plot twist is mind-blowing! I always wondered why Lee Don worked so hard to help Kim Young Ran following the Chairman's death; now it all makes sense. I honestly think Kim Young Ran has more chemistry with Lee Don than with Jeon Dong Min. To me, their romance looked forced.

Sky Nov 15 2025 12:59 pm I rarely comment, but this one is good. It is like mixing action, comedy, drama and a bit of spirit genre into a single drama.

Shima Nov 08 2025 11:35 am The most stressful kdrama in 2025. OMG i have to check my blood pressure. Too much unnecessary dramas & plot twists.

Unfortunate Nov 07 2025 2:51 pm I saw a post criticizing Yeo Bin’s acting here because they didn’t understand Yeong Ran motivation for helping the chairman, but I don’t think her acting is to blame. It’s poor writing and execution. If they had spent just a little more time showing how chairman became a parental figure to Yeong Ran or if Yeong Ran met Ye Rim before, then Yeong Ran’s relationship to the chairman would make more sense and make it more heartfelt. They also didn’t utilize Yeong Ran’s bodyguard skills very well and I don’t think it’s her acting is the reason behind the lack of chemistry between her and Jin Young. The only character that made sense was Lee Don.

Chy James Nov 06 2025 11:45 am The worst Korea drama I have ever seen please don't try it if you haven't

nnnaana Nov 06 2025 6:37 am 2 first episodes were great specially the 1st one. But once she goes to the countryside... it gets so boring, even the ML is boring. It true I didn't read de synopsis beforehand to be surprised, so I was disappointed when it didn't have much of action throughout out the series

Dave Nov 05 2025 6:33 am Stupid Story

Lovethisdrama_but Nov 05 2025 12:35 am I love this drama, especially female lead. But my question from the very beginning : they are very rich, so why they didn't hire very good and strong bodyguard to protect Kim Youn Ran and Lee Don. In real life, both of them absolutely alread dead by the villain. This is the main problem in this drama. But i watch this till the end because of Jeon Yeo Bin, love her so much...

Huali Nov 04 2025 10:24 pm The chairman actually did everything himself. To be honest, Young Ran is the most useless character. Lee Don, Dong Min and Hye Ji had to come rescue her all the time. I like the drama overall; I just feel that FM had a very weak character.

Gaseongyeon Nov 04 2025 1:59 pm Good drama but I have a few criticisms.. Young ram should've been donating the whole money to a non profit or something uhh,, it just morally better.. I mean she doesn't even bleed smh.. I disagree that she want to purchase a land for a kindergarten bruh I mean the number of kids on the village are just like 5 or what ??.. it so inefficient, better send them to city for better education... It could be better to be aged care homes then donate the whole money from the old guy so entire village could retire with lambos... I can see there's more aged single women need to be taken care in the near future.. It's more alarming situation. Not to mention the granny that not even have chance to be included on the frame ?.. Bruh birth rate in Korea are so doomed in general, with such small village I am not sure who is gonna be attending the kindergarten next year.. I mean there's only one new couple and the other is still having open ending,, who knows bruh money change people lmao in the other world it could be ended as makjang ??.. so maximum expected newborn baby could be one, two, or five to six kids if they are lucky lmao and the headmaster need to wait for six years before these kids could enter a preschool lmao ?.. not to mention the school are always struggling to find a new teacher bruh... Imagine you bring your kids to school so just you can become his teacher hell nah,, why wasting your energy just do a homeschooling ?.. everything are so inefficient that the teacher even has a whole villa just for a new teacher recruit, with a huge garden, so huge even once they held a welcoming party there..Bruh the villa is way, way more efficient to be a kindergarten school for six children.. or maybe it just the dad motives to be close with as much young lady as possible ?.. Bruhh also I feel bad for the old guy lmaoo why sacrifice your life and strategy for just that 5yrs maximum sentence ? when a flashdisk are enough to make the girl rotten in the jail forever?.. Loll and I hate the nepotism in the final eps when she supposed to throw the bucket to those menopause ladies,, why she throw the bucket to her boss like she was a basket ring lmao ??

Jew Nov 04 2025 1:17 am Great story. Great cast. No wonder it received high ratings

Emmanuel Nov 03 2025 1:55 pm This drama has lost its steam and it has become easily predictable. Ridiculous.

Siyo Nov 02 2025 7:23 am I'm glad there's not much romance and stick to the plot and thriller experience

Grace Oct 31 2025 10:25 am I really like this drama with outstanding cast, story and the plot twist. I can't wait for the episode 11 and 12.

Ish Oct 29 2025 5:58 pm A good start, lots of potential, but didn't deliver. There are so many stupid situations that make this drama laughable... It's a shame, because I really like Jeon Yeo-Bin. She deserves better.

Vena Oct 29 2025 8:32 am I see no reason why Dong Min had to take the blame when the lawyer already cleaned the female lead fingerprints from the gun. They could have all escaped since no CCTV was working by the way. So ridiculous, not romance between the FL and ML. Episode 1&2 was good but the remaining episodes was poor

Rosalie Oct 29 2025 5:38 am Outstanding cast, story and twists. Love it!

Sam Oct 28 2025 10:57 am story was good but poorly written. Weak and dumb female lead

Haann Oct 27 2025 9:06 am I think if the writer keeps out baek hyeji totally from the whole storyline, the drama would be better. Like her character doesn't add anything to the storyline except for immense annoyance and nosiness. A total mood killer for sure as i decided to fastforward the scenes whenever she's on the screen.

Decided to drop the drama at Ep5

Yuri Oct 25 2025 7:48 am I agreed to "The weeper" read his/her comment

Clay² Oct 25 2025 7:46 am I like this drama from the beginning but after 3 episodes down There's a little bit boring and it's so frustrating that the enemy sorround her but can't do anything, wtf use ur karate version girl!!!!?

I am Oct 24 2025 5:46 pm I like this drama very much. I'm a fan of Jin Young. But I really really hate the character of Baek Hye-Ji. She is sooooo much annoying. If I am Kim Young-Ran or Bu se mi, I will surely chop karate style her freaking neck. Baek Hye-ji is a nosy person, when her I see her face I literally move forward scenes.

CritiQueen Oct 24 2025 10:29 am I dropped the drama after the chairman died. I didn’t expect a romance between her and the chairman, of course, but I was really looking forward to the dynamic they could’ve had together like her acting as his fake wife and bodyguard until the end.

country bumpkin Oct 24 2025 1:50 am in ep7...scratching my head (waiting for the next trigger that would jumpstart the sequence of events that would make me go ga-ga)...btw this is not a thriller flick is it? so FL abandon the plan and elope with that villager dude? what is goin on here..?

The Weeper Oct 23 2025 8:47 pm I'll keep it short.

Started out great. Loved the intensity and flow but it seems the writer didn't have a solid hold on the story to sustain that gripping element, cause even if you wanted to introduce some light hearted scenes to the story, you can do that without losing focus.

Also, why did they make the FL weak? You say she's a trained fighter yet you couldn't even give us some solid choreographed fight scenes. Was the director that lazy???? I expected so much more from her fighting, but it was obvious the director didn't do her justice, cause even if you wanted to use the ML to support her, you can do that and still equip her with immense strength. I mean everyone surely have a moment of weakness no matter how skilled a fighter they are.

I hate it so much because this series had so much potential to be so much more than it already is. But well...

Steve Oct 22 2025 5:14 pm Started out great, but the story turned ridiculous.

Hmm Oct 22 2025 7:42 am welp there goes one of my theories

Renz Oct 21 2025 12:28 pm WTF, episode 8 had such a nonsense storyline! Why would you invite your enemy into your house when you can't even fight him one-on-one? And if you can't pull the trigger, why would you point the gun so close to your enemy instead of keeping your distance?

There are already so many K-dramas with this kind of ridiculous scene-why do they keep repeating it?

KimKai Oct 19 2025 11:27 am I disagree a lot with these comments. This kdrama is fuuuuuun!

ishidawan Oct 18 2025 5:36 pm What if Chairman Ga is still alive? Hahaha

ewr Oct 16 2025 11:31 pm The first two episodes were great, but starting from the third and fourth, everything went downhill. It just didn’t have the excitement of the first two. I ended up stopping after the fifth episode.

Chy James Oct 16 2025 11:02 am The first two episodes are so good but the other four episodes are so boring honestly I don't like it

Boo Oct 16 2025 6:33 am I totally agree with Erif comment's. After 6 episodes it's not better, and I think I will drop it.

L Oct 15 2025 12:59 am Why does the female lead needs to have another identity and act as a teacher? Can she just hide in one house far from a city, staying silently and just come out after 3 months?! Haha the plot is so funny

Hmm Oct 14 2025 1:23 pm So far this show has just been fine but I feel like they could’ve done away with the romance between Se Mi/Young Ran and Dong Min. There’s no emotional or physical chemistry between them so it’s just unnecessary. Also the way people are finding out her actual identity is so stupid, even I started asking why she’s so careless. I have a feeling Secretary Ham is the spy Don Lee was referring to and I think it’d be an interesting twist if Baek Hye Ji turned out to be a legitimate heir.

sf Oct 14 2025 11:01 am A bunch of complete idiots in this drama.

Erif Oct 14 2025 5:56 am The comedy plot suddenly became so annoying. First two episodes were good and here comes the muchang village and bleh

Giffyy Oct 14 2025 5:06 am I dislike that Baek Hye-ji character So annoying!!!

Goku-San Oct 14 2025 1:27 am Drama is good so far but the Baek Hye-Ji character is flat out annoying.

Chaeyoung Oct 14 2025 1:15 am @kdrama why make it so easy? Do you even watch the series? They make it easy because they want to catch Yerim's killer so they choose muchang village. Young ran is the bait to catch the bad guys and muchang is small village that make it easy to catch them

Jew Oct 12 2025 2:05 pm I loved the series so far!

Alba Oct 10 2025 5:01 am The tonal shift threw me off. Sorry I don’t think this drama is for me

Po Oct 07 2025 1:52 am There are so many mysteries in this village. I predict that Bu Se Mi would not fight alone. Some villagers may have past background that the villagers do not now each other. Bu Se Mi would be helped by them to fight against those wicked stepchildren's underlings..

Rizaleno Oct 06 2025 12:23 pm A must watch kdrama of 2025 based on episodes 1-3. I came from Bon Appétit and this made me hooked already.

Great.Kdramas Oct 05 2025 6:50 am Jeon Yeo Been never fails.. she’s so good!

Nadine Oct 02 2025 6:43 pm Waoow, episode 2, I am shaking with the scene in the church

love-it Oct 02 2025 8:50 am i didn't realize FL was the FL in vincenzo until the airport scene in ep2 due to her attire and shade.

Nice Oct 01 2025 9:57 am I am so hooked! I love this and the First Lady! Better than Twelve

Nadine Sep 30 2025 10:14 pm First 1/2 hour, 1st episode. Looks really promising, but don’t know yet whether it will be a sad or a scary drama. Hope scary :-) Love Yeo Bin, she is incredibly good

Chen Hwa Sep 30 2025 9:39 pm the best drama ever

Han Young Sep 30 2025 6:34 pm Best drama in a long time. Hope it continues to deliver.

Duke hyda Sep 30 2025 12:41 pm This is going to be great , hi guys from Nigeria

Joseph theVagabond Sep 30 2025 5:55 am Hmmm... Looks promising... Hope the story keeps on track and becomes the comedy-crime/thriller that it appears to be... Episode 2 in 3 hours...

Keep watching!

Mimimi Sep 29 2025 1:57 pm We just one episode out and I am looking forward to more

Jillibean Jun 26 2025 1:19 pm Well I admit I Do get a little tired of contract marriage stories but I will probably still check it out for the actors involved.
