    Highly recommended! The male lead is stubborn and argumentative, a classic case of a high-ranking official humbling himself to win back his wife, but he's well-mannered and the back-and-forth is quite poignant. The female lead is resilient, ambitious, and gentle, a bit oblivious to romance but sensitive—a pure and innocent type. After their long-awaited reunion, the male lead gives her various opportunities, and the female lead falls for him and pursues him. He stubbornly insists they're not a good match and refuses. The female lead listens and stops pursuing him, focusing on her career and her social circle, leaving the male lead jealous and resentful. Later, when they get together, the female lead misunderstands that the male lead has a past love interest and sees herself as his kept woman, becoming somewhat distant. The male lead notices this and feels uneasy. Later, the male lead uses all sorts of underhanded tactics to win her back.
