The last few seconds, of episode 8, suggest grandma, Yeonghwa, might be the biological grandmother of Eunae who appeared to be abandoned by her mother. It is also interesting that Yeonghwa is the second wife of grandpa, Gangsu. So there is a small mystery here..... 👍😁 .... I like mysteries.
for junho ... it looks like nobody cares about him ... thats what he thinks . the only one who thought wrongly…
Although I also feel sorry for Junho because he is in the dark about everything except that Hwayoung is his biological mother - I will squirm when everything comes into the light for Junho.
Because I have a bad feeling that Junho will become many levels more incorrigible than Hwayoung ever was. But the storyline will certainly become more intense and dark which is the hallmark of makjang dramas.
After watching the prison inmates' torture of Hwayoung, my personal opinion is that Hwayoung must not have a comeback simply because if she did.... she will KILL everyone in the Oh family as well as Baekho. Baekho not only assisted Jangmi in her revenge but if he married Jangmi, he will become the grandson-in-law of Dream Group. Hwayoung 's dreams for Junho to head Dream Group would be in the gutter and she would hit the roof, for sure.
On top of that, the police is in possession of videos of Hwayoung's murder of Bokgil. Murder is not something which can be whitewashed and glossed over .... even when that country is tolerant of corruption and physical & sexual violence and whatnot.
Who then will take over the Villain's role? Hwayoung's bloodline. Junho's evil genes have no chance to showcase themselves yet because his Kang family has been warm and loving.
certainly it was something that none predicted . [if its not a dream] .
joetoca, if it were not a dream, then Hwayoung will give up her protagonist role and Junho will, very possibly, replace her. Junho needs more screentime and there are only about 40 episodes remaining for Park Geon Il aka Junho to show his acting skills.
What is certain is that Taepyeong is in deep sh*t now as he is caught by Kanghyeok's thugs. Will Kanghyeok kill him in retaliation for Hwayoung's imprisonment? 🤦🏻♀️
the logic agrees with you .!!. but i think they forget to cast the logic in this drama . yes baekho was superman…
"also she needs to have a serious conversation with junho." You hit the nail on the head! But I think she distrusts him as she overheard Hwayoung's emotional conversation with Junho. So she is concerned that Junho will be on Hwayoung's side. Still ... she should spill the beans on him.
joetoca, Mdm Writer is treating her viewers like elementary school children. 😤 Keeping secrets from one's love ones is a drama trope. The writers' aims are to create misunderstandings and problems. In real life, are Koreans like that... I don't know. 💁🏻♀️
He does look more skinnier than I remember... I've seen him in penthouse and escape/revenge of the seven
I have just googled Shooting Stars drama, tapped on his name and my jaw dropped! The photo was in March 2024. He was very handsome and much less thinner than now. It was only 2 years ago. His neck and face were bulkier and more fleshy. It is as if they are two different persons. I will try to send you a link of that Wikipedia page with his 2024 photo below. 😲
His namu wiki page mentions that he used to be "conciderably skinny until his early 30s, but has since gained…

I love the storyline and what Seonu said at the end - whatever season you are in now, they are all Radiant. The theme of healing, of discarding burdens of guilt, of honesty with loved ones are so beautifully dealt with. Acting is overall good including the youngest couple who do not have much experience.
Seonu and Haran kissed more than once but there is not even a kiss between Mr Yeon and Hayeong. Wish there were more lovey dovey scenes between them.
Nevertheless, good to see all four couples paired up nicely.
So the guy taking videos of Baekho and Jangmi entering the police station was sent by Hwayoung not Chairman.
Baekho & Jangmi were at the police station when he received that phone call threatening Sukhee's life. Why didn't they inform the detectives when there were 4 or 5 of them sitting at their desks? Instead, they decided to deal with the caller themselves and dashed out. 🙄😑
Even if Baekho were in the Special Forces, that was years ago so he could not be as fit as before. But with Jangmi's taser, Baekho became Superman and won the fight against 4 thugs! 👏😂👏😂👏😂
If Jangmi truly loved Baekho, she would have told him about Junho's biological mother now and Nambong's affair with her.... long ago.
Ok one week in. This will be a very light daily watch. I'm not sure if people will enjoy this if they binge watch…
I posted a question about the appearance of Yoon Jong Hoon whom I am unfamiliar with. My question was not "uncalled for". Neither was it harsh or impolite. Neither did I criticise his acting. Anyone can see that Yoon Jong Hoon is very thin, pale and weary-looking. Even dying Grandfather is livelier.... for now. 😆

Hi! Thank you for your reply. Just watched episode 4. He looked sad and sickly on top of being thin.
I am unfamiliar with this actor.
Recently, I have heard of 3 actors who were told to lose weight otherwise the ML role will go to another actor. One of them was Jung Woo Il in Our Golden Days. I cannot recall the names of the other two actors.
I really dislike how an actor or actress is ordered to lose weight unnecessarily.
So there is a small mystery here.....

Hwayoung's bloodline. Junho's evil genes have no chance to showcase themselves yet because his Kang family has been warm and loving.
Are you still hesitant? ☺️
I will wait for your answer tomorrow. 😁

Yes, let's watch!

I thought it is not revenge drama but family drama. No... the rivalry, the jealousy and later scheming and backstabbing will begin.

Thanks again! 😁
I have watched Penthouse S1 only, but I don't remember the ML, Yoon Jong Hoon in that drama.
Does anyone else think the same as me - that Yoon Jong Hoon looked pale, thin and sickly? Or does he usually look like this?
Eunae and Gyeol will be the lead couple. 🤭
