The most recent South Korean hit features Baek Hyun-Woo, an incredibly attractive office worker who develops feelings for Hong Hae-In, a defenceless intern.
The faded pastel mist of K-romance is no more. Hyn-Woo hates Hae-In, his wife, who rose to become the CEO of Queens Group.
Hyun-Woo is about to give Hae-In the divorce paperwork when she discloses that she has only three months to live due to a rare brain tumour.
A-list actors Ji-Won and Soo-Hyun give their characters sense. Their chemistry is electrifying even in the middle of chaos.
It is occasionally predictable, but that is what makes it realistic. We have all experienced tumultuous relationships and contradictory feelings.
The program doesn't hold back when presenting the less glamorous side of romance. It is purely human, imperfect, and raw.
It's an emotional roller coaster following Hyun-Woo from contempt to rediscovery. He discovers that love is messy, beautiful, and worthy of fighting for as he wrestles with morality.
