Watch at your own risk and only if you're ok getting your blood pressure boiling high, because of the frustration and anger you'll feel by watching this makjang bull**it.

This article just repeats the source and rumors with added flair. It's not new. And it's not confirmed officially that part 2 will comprise of side-stories, nor that og Naksu will be the lead. Jeez, those media outlets are like those gossipers in AoS's episode 8, lol. Started with one thing, ended with some ridiculous exaggeration.
Don't go looking for k-drama comprehensive scores on imdb. Viewer pool there is tiny.
Hard to say. Imdb usually is ok, but only if the score pool is no less than 10k, which only happens to very very popular k-dramas. AsianWiki and MyDramaList frequently have overrated scores even for complete trash if it's popular and underrated ones if the show wasn't promoted well/wasn't on popular channels/etc. Personally, I stopped looking at scores when it comes to k-dramas and just watch them if synopsis and trailers caught my eye. If you look only at scores here you may miss an absolute gem.
I've been thinking about it some more and I guess I'm ok with FL changing back to og Naksu body, if that's where the plot will lead to. And she actually wasn't looking halfbad in the scenes she was in. Overall I just hope that Naksu character gets a happy ending in one body or the other.
But I think this whole body swap twist, if true, sounds better on paper though, than on screen. If I was reading a book, I'd have no problems whatsover with this plot twist, because I'd be more attached to the character and her actions, not focusing on her looks, which are usually not frequently mentioned after inital description anyway. But watching the show this gets perceived differently, because we get attached to the actor playing the character by seeing her all the time. Hong sisters may have gone too deep into their scripts here.
It will have two parts. First part is airing right now, consisting of 20 episodes. Part 2 is being filmed currently and will continue the story with 10 episodes.
Since Tae Soomi was in law school at the same time as Youngwoo's father, Woo Gwangho, and Hanbada’s CEO, Han…
Or he can be of any age if: 1) She was already married and had a son while in law school. And then she had an extramarital affair with FL's father. 2) She has a step-son from her husband's prior marriage.
But personally I think she's just a career woman who ditched her baby on her father and started climbing that ladder.
In AoS example I'm arguing that Uk falls in love with Naksu's soul, not Mu-Deok's soul or body. Mu-Deok's soul is in the background, watching. Same thing happened in Mr. Queen.
My theory : Young Woo and Min Woo turn out to be siblings! Agree/ Disagree?
Hard no. Min Woo doesn't fit the bill being a careerist attorney, while rival CEO told that her son doesn't want to follow in her footsteps (being a lawyer) and still doesn't know whom to become. Also, all attorneys seem to go to court frequently, so no sitting on computer all the time.
If the Queen stayed as herself she would have either offed herself eventually or stayed as King's enemy because she was too timid to go against the grain. And wouldn't have gained King's attention for sure, especially with that concubine bitch around. All her personality changes can be attributed to the guy.
I watched with fine subs, thanks. But that's what happened. Would the King have expressed interest in the timid Queen in the first place, like he did with the guy inside? No. What got him interested is her erratic behaviour, personality, cooking, mannerisms and even that dictionary full of strange words. That all was the guy. The Queen was always in the backdrop.
The best part of the show was when the guy's soul sorta merged with the Queen's and he started thinking himself as her. And it was the best version of the Queen. But then he left in the end.
I could be completely out of the scope, but i sort of get the feeling that the "son" the other chief is referring…
How can any male at the law firm be her son, lol? She said: 1) he spends most of his time on a computer; 2) he doesn't want to follow in her steps and is still finding himself. Does this profile fit anyone there? 🙄

2) her husband may have been a widower
1) She was already married and had a son while in law school. And then she had an extramarital affair with FL's father.
2) She has a step-son from her husband's prior marriage.
