A daunting drama
This drama really stirs different emotions in me. It is typically a story about two young men, In Ha is rich but rejected by his family and Tae Oh is poor but ambitious and intelligent, who grew up together as best friends. Initially brought together under the goal of being on top of the world but things will inevitably change when a young woman, Hye Won, comes between the two.I'm frustrated that an actress was added to play this role, giving us a love triangle that we already know is going to end in heartbreak when we see that she deliberately chooses the one with the most money instead of the one she loves. This will not only strain the beautiful friendship between the two men, but also break their hearts individually.
In terms of chemistry, I also think the casting is bad. Hye Won has none with any of the cast. Felt like Hee Joo, Ih Na's little sister had more with Tae Oh even though he's supposed to be cold to her, which says a lot.
As for the story, it's interesting but not really very creative, rich people fighting for the succession of a huge corporation, some intrigues, childish behaviors displayed, lies. It reminds me a little of "Reborn Rich".
All this series showed me is that Lee Jae Wook should delve into more dramatic, mysterious or action roles, he's really great.

she cant showcase emotion or maybe its just her face?
the story is kinda fast moving . Hong soju's character lacks everything even chemistry with main lead. i think viewer dont want the characters to end up together.
and whats wrong with tae oh? why is he a loyal dog? why he had to be a dog in the first place? it needs explaining. His backstory is kinda missed out.

It is impossible not to like this drama. Don’t wait to binge this one.
The Impossible Heir Business Life Mystery Romance DramaWhat Universe are people living in, who would give Impossible Heirs a very low rating? It is almost like I am asking myself “Are they looking at the same thing I am viewing?” The Story is intense, edgy, realistic and exciting, with great music and fashion. It has an unpredictable storyline and is well written. I see Impossible Heir in the top three for the season, based on its fine technical criteria and quality of the acting. The angst between the two leads is incredible. The Drama Twist sets Impossible Heirs apart from other dramas. Am I being punk’d? See if you can disregard the low scorers so that you don’t miss out on this great drama series.
A lone teenager named Han Tae-O (Lee Jae-wook, Alchemy of Souls) drifts into town. This town is where his mom is from. There is a great mystery shrouding who he really is and what are his true ambitions. He is appalled at how the whole town kowtows to the local Chaebol and his family. Han Tae-O has a run-in with the teen son of the Chaebol. The son is Kang In-Ha (K-pop from U-KISS Lee Jun-young, Weak Hero Class 2) and you have not seen this amount of testosterone hit the TV screen in a while. Nonetheless, these two eventually become friends in the weirdest way. Han Tae-O’s focus is on some unproclaimed mission. He meets a girl (Hong Su Zu), but she is not part of his master plan. However, both friends become rivals for her affection.
I am sitting in my chair viewing the first two episode saying to myself, “Oh Boy, this is really good”. The Impossible Heir is one to keep on the radar. It has just started (2024), but I am truly excited. The plot is upper level storytelling, on the order of Reborn Rich. So far Lee Jun-young is stealing the show. However, I am sure that as the meatier parts of the story unfolds Lee Jae-wook will make his acting statement. The story covers about 12-15 years of life. I will have to see how this one turns out. Clear up some head space for this drama too. You will experience lots of Head Talk. The Impossible Heir is on Hulu.

A Thought Provoking Business political thriller with a romantic touch 2024
Some viewers might not have liked ep 5, 6 but I liked it, the writing and script should come out with realistic realism which most K-dramas don't show because of stereotypes but reality works like this there is no one who is good and pure everyone wants to be rich and live as much comport as they could have. The rich hate the poor and the poor hates the rich vice versa. The different ideology of the middle class (Tae Ho, Hye Won) and rich groups (Kang In Ha, Kang Jong Ma) was brilliantly shown by the director in the 6th episode when Kang In Ho didn't think about Tae Ho who almost died and he did what his father would have done, even his father is using him he knows it and Tae Ho is the one who brings him up infort of his father but he didn't think about him Ina life and daeth situation. At Another scene in the dinner where Joong Ma didn't show slightest of intrest in Hye Won or didn't even asked her name and then she stood up for her self respect and spoke in a tone most of us would have. The plot is great from the first episode itself as it focuses mostly on realistic aspects like if you are getting a chance to become rich or you can become rich if you push yourself in the direction where you can reach if you give your little more time or marry an conglomerates/ rich person's son even if you don't have any feelings, will you choose it or choose your feelings for a person where your future is unpredictable where you don't have assurance that you won't struggle in the future because you are choosing a common man. Will you choose your feelings or money comfortabl life this is the thought that most people must have in their mind, I know the problem, the problem is that you are connecting facts to the plot but not liking it because it is not white and not showing the lovely moments but more of a realistic approach. But rest assured I can guarantee that in the remaining ep u ll see the dynamics of the common man the lead actor actress VS the rich the conglomerate family including Kang in Ha then the real power struggle and the potential of the writing will be judged. My writing intrest is for the audience who ate not watching it cause of law ratings but trust me watch the 1st 2 ep then decide. By the way the lead actress has to learn a lot in ,she is struggle a lot in complicating scenes a lot but as its her debut as lead in a demanding acting scope character I thing she is doing good,why are you worried about acting when the brilliant actor lee Jae wook is here & he can carry the series single handedly. what a gifted talented actor he is in this age.Episode 7 and 8: The episode should start and end just like this as a single ep of 2hrs, now i get it why they release 2ep in a single day slot in a week. it's getting better and better and I can see a banger ending for it.
The character's motivation is becoming clearer, the little realistic things which director adds is commendable, which is not the case in most K-dramas.
Inha has never been a trustworthy person, right from the start, he's a socio-psychopath who tries to control people under him, kills for his own benefits isn't it worst .now his motivation is clear.
Why people feel bad for him, I don't know and the cheating part I'm saying again he deserves it and it will hurt him more than this as the secret is revealed & much more yet to reveal.
Tae Ho, Huijie is the most righteous character from the whole series in a turbulent evil world. As it intended to be.
And you got it right Hye Won is the impossible heir. I agree, her acting is obviously bad, there's not much improvement from her side, but I will never give her personal troll for it as i have seen worst actress than this after doing many dramas & it's a very difficult character, you need to have courage to accept this as debut. I only hope she learns for it for her future project.
There are many other reasons to absolutely love this series.
Starting from the varied dynamic range of characters to watch, the acting, cinematography, writing, music, production, and finally the direction. Let alone the design and capture of the 2 minute chase sequences, it is enough to mark it as brilliant.👏 I'm loving every bit of it& i could not find any
upcoming drama in this range.

FL acting ?
I don't usually have any interest in Revenge drama which has little to no romance or dramas where we have to use too much Brain but somehow this drama wasn't really bad. I have watched till ep 6 and am actually interested to find out what will happen next.However. The female leads acting is reallyyyyy bad , no REALLY. Trust me. She literally feels like a lifeless doll. No expression just plain bland face. (👁️👄👁️ ) Almost like this ( This also seems more expressive than her) . Moreover she seems to have no chemistry with either of the ML(?) Why did both the mls even like her , I can't even figure out. They suddenly decided to like her so much one day , that's all I can understand.
Lee jae wook and other ML are great actors. They have no flaws.
This is not the best dramas I have watched but it's still smth.

Never give your full trust on someone
Lol this rating 6.8 is not related to this superb kdrama. I don't know why and what makes this drama a rating like that. For me personally it is a 9/10 overall, yes it can be 10, it is an awesome one and superb mastermind masterpiece kdrama, I really enjoy it. (the Italian accent 😅, he trys, looking like the accent of our mafia Mr Vincenzo 😎)Some of the stories can relates to Reborn rich, big mouth, there is one I forgot its name.
The moral always show correctly, to never give your full trust to anybody, only focus on yourself.
Now I know why some were sorry for Kang hee joo, she is amazing and really pretty ✨,love her actings in all kdramas.
I won't say much but in the end after receiving the picture, and he was zooming it, and the main one concentrating and achieving successfully, after the drinks together.
They only concentrate forwards. (if you know what I willing to say about)
I really enjoy it how they plots and plans
How your mind should stay strong.
Kang!!!
Always wonderful and awesome works from the staffs, directors, actors and everyone.
Choi hee jin ✨✨ want to see more dramas of her, also main roles.
Nevertheless (not referring the kdrama 😅😅), the impossible heir, if you not yet watch it, you should! You will really enjoy it.
Don't look at this unrelated ratings to this kdrama.

Only Lee Jae Wook Mattered
I watched till the end only for Lee Jae Wook. The female lead made my skin crawl, she was literally pathetic. Both acting and the part she played. Then the guy played Kang Inha. Did he think he was giving a stellar performance with his out of the blue overacting, smiles and not a bit of good looks?! Idk. Not as a villain, but I genuinely didn't like his useless overacting. The storyline wasn't well structured. Not at all. Things were vague, not explained properly, everything fell into our Jang UK's hands so easily. I know it's a 12 ep drama, but things could have been clearer. The fl's and Han Tae Ho's story felt forced and disgusting at times that I literally wanted Kangoh group's daughter to be his Girlfriend. In the last two episodes they made a hasty and cliched ending. There was everything very very predictable. Overall, I expected best performance from Lee Jae Wook and he didn't disappoint. So only him, and nothing else worked in this drama. In future, I would like to see our Jang Uk in a better, solid and prominent storyline.Was this review helpful to you?
Don't waste your time
This kdrama was so hard to watch like I would rather watch love alarm instead of this. The plot was so good at the starting like eating the rich but then it wasn't executed properly. The plot was so bad that even lee junyoung and lee jaewook's power duo couldn't save it. On top of that miss Hong suzu's acting was so much horrendous like girl should have just stay a model, I am sure that she is sweet person irl and she is very beautiful but she should really take some acting class or maybe action isn't her thing. This drama was so bad that I wanted to give it a 0 but I couldn't so I gave it a 1Was this review helpful to you?
Caution: VERY annoying female lead.
everything in this drama actually seems so promising EXCEPT the female lead. I have never been more aggravated by a character before. This drama would have been an 9 if not for her.The whole time I just wanted her to LEAVE. I kept skipping every single scene she was in and I’ll tell you why.
1. She’s not attractive. She is just an average girl and there’s nothing wrong with that, BUT you expect me to believe that BOTH of them like her that much?
2. It makes NO sense that they are both chasing after her. Like I said before, she’s just average. she’s not funny, or entertaining. She’s just meh. So why would both these guys just randomly start liking her? The rich male lead literally saw her sitting on a lunch table and basically said “yup, I like her” but WHY? it’s not like she’s exceptionally stunning? She doesn’t have any special traits that make her interesting? All we know is that she’s poor? The only time she showed us some personality was when she laughed at the poor ml for hiding his boxers. And it was so corny because that’s not even funny? Like what are you laughing at.
3. There is absolutely ZERO chemistry between her and EITHER of the male leads. Like I’m sorry but I’m just not buying it. They didn’t show us a proper reason to why they both like her. Like I said before, I would get it if she was really pretty and a lot of guys just chase her, or if she had some quirky, funny, personality or just ANYTHING special, but she has none of those things.
4. The male leads will fight because of her later in the drama. You can 100% see were this is going and it’s just very stupid and unnecessary.
5. She adds NOTHING to the plot. in fact she actually ruins it. The bromance is actually enough and it’s entertaining all by itself. The female lead actually makes me want to NOT watch it anymore, rather than adding any spice.
6. The female lead is a bad actress. This doesn’t have to be a strong issue but just be aware she doesn’t know how to convey emotions using her face. This is basically her (🧍♀️) at all times. Her face is just expressionless and needless to say, I’m going to be cautious about her dramas in the future…

Bad Acting, Uncertain Writers, and the most unnecessary Female Lead
After seeing so much h@te from the fans I decided to watch it, TBH the trailer didn't excite me enough to watch this Krdama.I finally can understand why people don't like the FL and make reels of not liking her. Let me tell you what I observe;
1. Great Cemstry b/w the Main Male Leads: The bromance b/w the male leads, their partnership was good. But they have known each other for that long if Han Tae Oh shows a tiny interest in a girl why does Kang In Ha have to go for the same girl? he is breaking the bro code, I hate that. If writers show that much understanding b/w them why Kang In Ha don't have any sense of brotherhood?
2. Now according to writers:
Writers/Makers: Female Lead Na Hye Won had a poor background.
Me: Wow, so unique! and?
Writers: And she wanted to use Kang In Ha to gain success (she had some plans)
Me: Okay, so how would she do it?
Writers/Makers: She will approach his best friend to gain his attention.
Me: Okay then?
Writers/Makers: then both of the MLs want/like her.
Me: So, how are you going to make it?
Writers/Makers: well, it's simple.
Me: ....?
Writers/Makers: She does nothing. She just gets into trouble cuz of her mom and she needs someone's help so she goes to Kang In Ha.
Me: that's it?
Writers/Makers: yes!!
Me: ....?
I don't have any problem with the love triangle but the FL just comes out of the blue and does literally nothing and both MLs went crazy over her? hello writers! wtf? about the actress she is not good at acting, most of the time her expressions are the same, no matter the scene.
3. Kang Hee Joo: Why make her a pathetic girl who like Han Tae Oh and he doesn't give a damn. He doesn't need to like her back this is so cliché plot. We already watch this in so many Kdramas.
If the writers/makers are not going to improve then I am going to drop this Kdrama, it is not worth watching. IMO, the FL love triangle is totally unnecessary. But if they make her character like that purposefully to gain fans' attention they failed flat cuz fans are dropping this drama because of that annoying FL.
