Protagonist is depressing and the french...

Warning: Spoilers
OK! First review on here but this show irked me so much I had to.

For starters, the plot is boring! The trailer made it seem so cool like oooh aah housewives drama or something more like Sky Castle (solid show with lots of drama). But instead you're watching this woman rarely show any other emotions besides confused, sad, expressionless for an hour and every ep. The other women hate on her and I get why but it's not fun to watch lol.

It's also boring! Im on ep 2 but nothing about this show makes me want to continue it.

Slight spoiler I guess Eun-Pyo's son breaks one of the children's violin. Why are children so annoying. I was so annoyed when this happened like oh my gosh this is so stupid.

Anyways, the Mc is genuinely uninteresting at the point. I don't care what happened to her, and I don't care for what will.

Last note The french.. ok so I get the feeling that Korea idolizes Paris and France but every time this rich man shows up Mc and this other woman (auburn coloured hair) they must speak french. Are their accents horrible? Honestly it's not the worst thing I've heard, but as an English Canadian I'm cringing with the expressions chosen. Ça va is repeated MULTIPLE times and it's so aggravating. It's a very informal french, something you say to your close friend but here it feels misused.

End of ep 1-2 spoiler Louis and Eun-Pyo have past history. They speak french together due to Louis being born in France (I'm pretty sure). On multiple occasions they use Ça va in the weirdest contexts? Mc faints and while in hospital the first thing he asks is « Ça va » PLEASE STOP 😭 SHE JUST FAINTED COME ON PUT SOME MORE WORDS INTO IT IM BEGGING YOU. They've probably said it five times in a couple of scenes inbetween the last part of ep1-begnning of ep 2. And then what prompted me to come review this was when Auburn haired woman explains to Mc that Louis is Henri's father. Louis walks up to the women and says « Ça Va? » PLEASE WRITERS USE OTHER EXPRESSIONS. ITS GENUINELY PAINFUL. Its so repetitive that I'd imagine non french speakers picking up on how they wrote his dialogue.

Final thoughts: probably won't finish it, too long and uninteresting. I don't care about any of the characters and the story seems to have been a jumble of many other stories before it.

Imho, skip it.
