Does female deal actually have antisocial personality disorder?

I've been researching the disorder since watching the show. Moon young certainly has some traits but it doesn't seem like she actually has that specific mental issue to me.  I know the description says she has been diagnosed with ASPD but that doesn't mean she can't have been misdiagnosed.

Moon young certainly has some traits but it doesn't seem like she actually has that specific mental issue to me.  I know the description says she has been diagnosed with it but some of her actions seem to say otherwise. Descriptions can be rather misleading, and they could always claim she was misdiagnosed. 

Could you specify which of her actions do not fit the diagnostic criteria and make you think she might not have it?

Ps. I'm meh about the idea she has it too. I'm also starting to see some inconsistency in how she was written.

I don't think she has antisocial personality disorder, I think she has more of a bipolar type disorder. From the way she is very impulsive and gets what she wants at some times, and then very solemn at other times- shows she can be very understanding.

For instance, she accepts the advice that Gang-Tae gives her, even though she is very passive and childish about it.  

She does not match the bipolar criteria tho. the maniac and depressive episodes are too short and change too frequently and quickly. + bipolar disorder does not explain her disregard to other people feelings and low empathy.

As for the advice: we don't know if she accepting it coz she thinks it valid or if she thinks following it would be a way of getting close to Kang Tae (which is her goal at the moment).

As one myself, I can say she probably has NPD

not necessarily... IF she has APD... coz many symptoms overlap here. And usually you get the diagnosis that matches your symptoms better and clinicians try to avoid giving double diagnosis in cases like that. She does shown symptoms of narcissistic traits but they are also part of APD... and while APD explains her other behaviors, NPD doesn't... 

 Lita:

what other behaviors? wanting kangtae for herself? npd. depression? different thing ofc. low empathy? npd. disregard for other's feelings? npd

impulsivity is one of the criteria that distinguish between APD and NPD and she is really impulsive. unlawful behavior is another one, that she did too. 

she does not seek attention... she does not mind it at all, but she is not seeking it from others. She does not try to be liked nor admired.

They hinted many times that she has problems with differentiating feelings other show and "reading" them. Not that she does not care to do that, but she cannot do that (like the way she studied the board of photos in episode 5).

There are studies showing that APD and NPD have far more in common that what differentiate it so some voices are heard saying they should be put under one diagnostic name. That said, going strictly by "the average APD and NPD" and diagnostic criteria, she does fit APD more than NPD. 

Overall she fits APD better EXCEPT when she is with Kang Tae... her interactions with him are a mix of both APD and NPD and I might be leaning towards NPD with some scenes and APD with others. 

@lia BPD sounds possible after APD. My biggest problem with how character was written is how different her symptoms show with KT and with everyone else. She is book example of APD with everyone, but then KT scene at times it does not fit the "picture" of APD. 

Within the canon of the show they've only said she has a personality disorder, outside the show they say antisocial personality disorder but this being a drama we can assume that the traits of the disorder are going to include some creatively license. So attempting to armchair diagnose is kind of fruitless - I mean I'm sure it's a fun fandom practice but I'm not expecting the drama to give us a straight answer or strictly adhere to how ASPD presents. 

You're right, you can't tell right away. I made my theory after watching the final scene in episode 6 where she really broke down, so I sided more with the idea of her having BPD but it's always possible for her to have both! ASPD and BPD have many similarities it's just about the direction of expression and I chose to focus on her intense mood swings and lack of regard for her own safety. Labels are only really useful when finding a way to treat someone. I don't think a kdrama could possibly be 100% accurate as if it was a real person with a personality disorder. But it's interesting to try to understand a character as if they were real.  :)
