oh my god.

firstly. i am so glad to see all the reviews, you guys GET IT.
the most waste-of-time, painful, frustrating show ever.
the only thing that got me through was the acting, i loved the actors + music pretty solid.
this is not a review but a "rant" there was a lot more, but its too vile to post, sorry lol.
i wrote this review a while back just for my Instagram story... keep in my mind i was raging lol:

0/10
bullshit, crap, pointless, useless, dumbass show.
why did the even make this show? to romanticize abusive relationships? that's right.
THE WHOLE POINT OF THE WEBTOON WAS TO SEE NABI MOVE ON AND HEAL FROM THE TOXIC RELATIONSHIP BUT WHAT THE FU/K?
they kiss and happy ending?????????? no this aint a happy ending, this is the 'from hell' ending. na bi doesnt deserve that sh*t faced assh*le??? what is wrong with all of you????
what is the point of the writers completely twisting the entire meaning of the webtoon? If you’re going to go out of your way to change it, why even base it off of a webtoon in the first place? great acting but SH*T SHOW. whoever wrote this script is sick in the head. script-writer, remember to read the source first next time. god.
kdramas will never stop completely destroying amazing webtoons. first true beauty now this.

what is wrong with the FL?

disliked the FL on ungodly levels.
ML deserves better.
They make a cute but toxic couple. FL clearly values herself and her career more than everyone around her. She neglects her husband and develops a complicated relationship with his enemy. This doesn't make her a strong independent woman, but a selfish and stupid jerk.
Her behaving like this was also the trigger for the ML to explode and act overprotective at times.
She literally spent the night in a room with another man. yes, nothing happened but your husband deserves an apology and explanation. Characters were poorly written and gives out not a very good message.
Maybe its cute because its a show but if you meet someone like this in real life, RUN.
The second leads couple was weird too. They were like friends with benefits than lovers. Overall, I'd give this a 4 at max.

i dont think ive rated a show this high.

posting all my reviews from other places on here, so keep in mind i wrote this when it came out <33

oh my god, fantastic.
i loved the pacing. from season 1 to now, the pace has been constant, i love every moment.
all the couples oh my heart T T
the cast killed it once again.
(i found out one of the main actors didn't have very nice things to say about women, but that was a while ago i think, it broke my heart nonetheless, anyway this will not reflect on my review.)
this has to be one of the most real and slice of life dramas ive ever seen, it had no certain plot but it had me hooked, as if i was watching mystery lol. lee and his son will forever be most cute duo in the entire world.

cont. now:
i just wished jun and ik sun wouldve gotten together earlier and we got to see more moments of them because they totally stole s1 for me.
i also kind of wanted to see them get caught by ik joon and the friends, it would've been hilarious.
i didn't like that he had to find out in a circumstance where he had no choice but to accept they dated and broke up already.
i really love that couple AHHH

anyways i recommend this to kdrama newbies all the time, usually ends up with them not being satisfied with any other dramas lol *evil laugh*

thanks for reading BYEZ

heavily misunderstood

here's a different opinion among all the "unpopular opinions'
hate to admit but the biggest reason all the reviews didn't like it, is because its a popular show.
people tend to hate anything that "everyone likes" whether they admit it or not
movies, shows, music, even people, anything popular WILL be hated because its popular no matter how good it is.
now that its out of the way,
here's what my title means. people found is uneasy how crime and comedy was twisted like that, someone mentioned it even felt wrong to watch.
that's the thing, over a mafia, crime, law show, its a comedy show.
everything, even sensitive issues are comedy. if you were going in expecting a serious crime, law show, you're in the wrong place. the show is bizarre, unrealistic, but thats the theme!! lets not forget this is about a ITALIAN MAFIA? obviously its fiction.
someone had an issue with the lgbtq+ representation and all i can say is, it depends on the intentions of the author.
we are all sick of lgbtq+ rep always being some tragic story, ending in death or them being a bad person.
but lets not forget, none of the characters ever had anything against him for his sexuality.
at the end of the day, queer or not, the dude was a psycho abuser!!
there was no heavy heavy plot. the entire story evolved over 1 thing in 2 parts. the gold under the plaza.
1) stop the demolition of the building.
2) how to reach the gold.
now the 2) of it was not heavily dived into, the story really revolved around 1)
I've watched this show a few times already, and i picked up something new every time.
i thought it wad bizarre hoe the company did so much over one of the many buildings they need to demolish, but if you look into it, there were a lot more personal reasons as to why they attacked it so much.
someone was mentioning how it was weird that all the plaza members could take down HIRED men, good question, but again, tell me one scene where the plaza members have been normal. that plaza isnt a regular one, every single family is unique, every person is questionable, sometimes even bizarre. Even the government spy dude like, there ain't no way someone of that position would be that stupid, and start admiring a mafia who could potentially harm the country and not to mention his misunderstood everything and his view was blinded by bias.
welcome to plot convenience. if the plaza members were "normal" they would've been kicked out any of those moments Vincenzo was away. that would severely effect the story + they were huge comedic relieve after every intense moment.
and if this government dude found about about the real reason Vincenzo was back and the gold and all that, things would head down down. now as much as its not something to praise, the show did it well, it was pretty clear all the bizarre moments were comedic and didn't really effect the story.
there is one thing about this show that i will be upset about forever, we know it, big spoiler ahead everyone.
jang han seo. how dare they. obviously every show does this, kill our dear FAVOURITE most INNOCENT character.
he lived his entire life in fear, i cant even imagine how it would be living with that psychopath. after all he went through, he gets that TOP TEN ANIME BETRAYAL DEATHS?? no funeral scene?? no memorial for him? no being upset over his death? just like that? "you deserve to be my brother" be real right now the only thing you deserve is a punch in the face for leaving him to die. YOU don't deserve to be called "hyung" so lovingly by him. it really added to Vincenzo's character, he's not a softie who'll sacrifice his life for someone like that.
how did they leave him and run like that. so. selfish. he did so much for you. risked his life, got physically abused. helped you to the very END, lets not forget the chip in the watch is what tracked down the psycho. you are alive in my heart forever T T
and lastly. ok taecyon love of my fuc-king life you ate that role so bad.
i dont think ive physically gasped like that for any of those big plot reveals fr.
everyone saying it was predictable bffr all of you came to watch it after yall saw a hundred reels and tiktoks ab it, obviously you'd know.
again, people, will never like something everyone does. because they like being different or "i could predict it from miles away" like sit down lets just appreciate that plot.
the way he switched between the psycho and fluff ball like what the f-cuk he made my blood boil throughout, and since the reveal i never once felt any pity for him honestly. i will never understand people who an love a character despite all the hundred flaws just because they are cute/ hot, where your head at he's a psychopath its not quirky to like him.
i do wish we got more of a backstory on him, was he born like this, how did he turn into this? again if we got a sad backstory people would over sympathize with him and say it was never his fault la la la (me included).
it would lack a TRUE villain you know? but then again are any people BAD just like that, doesn't everyone have a story?
lets not get into that but this show made me think about a lot. in no way were any of characters perfect. (except han seo everyone stop using logic for him i beg u) it showed contrast of human beings, deep down everyone is selfish to an extent, it gave a real picture on what people are like, in the few moments of serious.
this show is more than just what it looks like, and only some people will get that, and thats okay, i give it a solid 9/10.

ugh but aw

I bet this would be an AMAZING LGBTQ show! I hate bromance shows because they make me sad as the "couple" don't end up together. however this one left me happy and satisfied. Of course I was sad we didn't see them as a couple. But from the way they look at each other to their interactions. perfection. Would re-watch 89327573354675871 times.
I hate the sister tbh, she's very extra. The way she "kidnaps" him to "fix" his "ejaculation problems" is so annoying.
It's obvious they're in love. I hope china's government gets rid of it's insane homophobic shit. So many beautiful shows get ruined cause of this.
