I beleive author know what she is doing the hotness bar drama is connected to ml family drama , while she will get pimped out , and the ml is out for a exposition, she will discover all his lies and his arriaged marriage, this why she won't contact him and spiral at lot of shit will happens + her character developemnt. Author seems like she doesn't want a simple story with just the ex , she want to write a telenovela type of drama with her tsunami of lot of drama happened at the same time . Atfer when mc will reconcilie, it when Mincheol will get his karma , her be the ceo wife of girlfriend while she is indifferent to him and stronger atfer all the shit she went throught with be her great revenge .

The slowest burn that ever burnt. I really hope all these ends will be tied because I’ll be so annoyed if we move at this glacial speed for months to rush to a conclusion later. There seems to be too many things to explore now… ex husband drama, ml’s father’s mysterious past and true colors, half brother’s rivalry/succession drama, confirmation of ml/fl feelings and their past connection, now they seem to be adding fl’s new hostess job/half brother toying her and new girl they’re trying to set up with ml. Been waiting for the ex husband to wallow in regret and get desperate but he seems so back burner now.
