Noh In-Ji sounds like a strong, independent woman with a past. I love seeing complex female characters. Plus, five contract marriages? She's gotta be a pro at navigating these temporary relationships.
 
Noh In-Ji sounds like a character I can root for. She's an independent woman who's clearly been through a lot, judging by her string of past marriages. I admire her strength and resilience, and I'm curious to see how she navigates this new contract marriage while dealing with her own mysterious past that includes a potentially dangerous ex.
 
The reviewer mentioning a mysterious trunk pulled from a lake instantly piqued my interest. The fact that it's connected to a murder investigation adds another layer of intrigue. I love a good mystery, and I'm eager to unravel the secrets surrounding the trunk and how it connects to the characters' lives.
 
While the reviewer mentioned the show has a slower pace, the focus on complex characters is a major plus for me. I enjoy character-driven dramas where the suspense builds gradually, allowing me to fully connect with the characters and their motivations. The fact that the leads are played by talented actors like Gong Yoo and Seo Hyun-Jin further strengthens the show's appeal.

Yeah. And it's a contract marriage that the ex-wife recommended. How wild is that?

I do love complicated character development. To me, that's what makes a movie or a TV series. Seeing characters morph. That's the best plot device for a writer.
