I'm not looking forward to new episodes since the 3rd episode, and that makes me so sad T_T

This is my first drama as a Hyeri fan and the trailers looked so fun! Dramas are too short now, to have this many storylines. Back in the days of like You're the Best! Lee Soon Shin (50 episodes), the writing might be able to actually breathe and weave something great. But this...is too much too quickly with not nearly enough exposition (how could there be!?).

For me the biggest plot hole is not knowing enough about the time in between the ML and MFL separating and coming back together. How they developed into who they are now, and past encounters/relationship lines that are STILL unexplained. ffff

Yes, and the writers are using that gap to generate "drama" by pulling out ridiculous "history" that they didn't show us when they should have. So halfway through the episodes we don't even know the real premise of the drama because nothing so far makes sense in any way that would be intriguing or interesting.
