After all the drama plots I have seen (from many countries) I was very curious about this show that kept receiving the highest ratings of any Korean drama. I was glad I waited until the final show aired because it was so intense that I quickly binged it in two days.
I think the part that makes it stand out the most is the fact that after every show kept having more and more unbelievable endings /cliffhangers the NEXT show would top it again! They were not always the usual drama plots used by most screenwriters. Much of the show addressed the stereotypes and the beautiful aspects of marriage. I think the surprise was the honest way it dealt with the possible toxic aspect of breakups and betrayals.
The ONLY aspect of this show that did bother me was the way that the FL, an accomplished physician with a great reputation and well thought of by her peers, slowly sinks into a more desperate and single minded version of herself.
Each couple in the show displays various aspects of male /female expectations and miscommunications. They each offer various lessons on why it's important to be honest and upfront in a relationship vs. making assumptions and reading situations incorrectly.
I think the only person I truly felt sorry for is the psychiatrist that takes an interest in the FL and was the only example of an emotionally healthy adult who kept showing up intentionally and randomly and saving the day. He is one of the main reasons that would make watching a second season worthwhile.
TWOTM definitely is over the top and other articles have mentioned that certain episodes may trigger individuals with past psychiatric /abusive relationship/stalker/trauma issues. I can see how some scenes DEFINITELY could negatively affect someone that experienced any of those. Please be careful if you think this could be you.
Just yesterday this show received various nominations for the quality and abundance of great acting and production value. If you want to experience one of the wildest emotional rides ever watch this great adult drama.
