for sure, 293 is 100%, he loves her

Yeah you are right. In some ways, this is very similar. However, the feel and execution is different. It is like having a love story but it is always different...
Here, there is a team of people, not only ML-FL and there are more characters and they are a lot warmer; there is more emphasis on good guys rather than the bad guys. In AML, we got to see the bad guys behind the scenes a lot. Here, we dont. We get to see ML's family and friends. Also, FL here is quite complex, that actress is AMAZING in this role. Also, the main villain here is very complex and has "good intentions" too.

Overall, this is a lot more complex drama with more warm tones, more characters, more plot - a LOT more plot!!!! the dialogues and then outmaneuvering each other.... and overall, more ... humane

Nope LOL Is the roaring lion a part of every MGM movie.... ???? it is just the credits. It can be fun or not... and you are NOT rating the movie on that roaring lion!!!!!!!

Yeah your idea is brilliant!!!! that will work!!!!

I was thinking about this and the only way to have the cake and eat it too, i.e. keep both twins but avoid the pain of filming their scenes together, is to have one of them LEAVE.
I think your idea resolves that brilliantly!

both were majorly wronged and should collaborate in cleaning out the criminals

i was thinking there is some benefit to kdrama skeleton women, as CEO Chae had no physical strength to even hit a man with a wrench LOL she is that weak

yeah that seems the reason why one dies... but still, the plot is tricky bc .... Jang Mi's family will not have Jang Mi... so just tell them Jang Mi left to study in the USA? and fool CEO Cha with that too... ??? and how would the stupid Jang Mi pass as Seo Rim to the observant CEO Cha... ?.... how come CEO Cha would not know Seo Rim died... ??? it is tricky!!!!
The easiest plot is to let both of them live and collaborate and swap, but that is most difficult to film...
To think of it... they do NOT need to swap to collaborate :)
Oh well - let us see what writers had in mind :)

I never read those previews, so I had no idea that Seo Rim is supposed to die... WHY??? She just got the Chef... so sad he stays alone!!!!! And if she dies and Jang Mi jumps in, how would Jang Mi's family deal with her absence? She would say she left to study in the USA??? but what if they see her in Dream Hotel...?? how would she pass by CEO Chae and her family.... ??? Then Baek Ho loses the love of his life... and has to fight with the Chef....

that is all so sketchy...... in some ways, it is easier they switch, but that too is a can of worms, sunce CEO Chae wants to kill them both, most likely....

The most fun version is they swap and collaborate.
To think of it... they do NOT need to swap to collaborate :)
Oh well - let us see what writers had in mind :)

It would be so sad to see Seo Rim die... she is so fun! and does not deserve to die.... Jang Mi is so boring :)

I can see why drama would gain momentum if Seo Rim dies bc that is more heavy karma and more motivation for revenge...
also Seo Rim COULD become half villain and say to heck with Jang Mi and her family, they are cockroaches... there is NO REASON for Seo Rim to collaborate wth the stupid Jang Mi ...

and Seo Rim death would provide more opportunity for plot and Jang Mi acting, as she has to show the transformation from this dull stupid provincial girl into the more sophisticated clever smart Seo Rim...

and yeah, filming scenes with both twins together is tough....

still, I think both of them working together would be really fun :) and I am not fond of killing Seo Rim and everything that will come out of that, e.g. killing Baek Ho's love and killing Chef's only chance in life to break his cement walls. He already paired up with Seo Rim, who is PERFECT for him
I;d like to see a plot that moves everyone forward
Ok there is the reality, CEO Chae wants both twins kiled LOL and not everyone will get their true love and tragedies happen, sure, but ... Seo Rim is fun :) her and Chef is fun :) Baek Ho and Jang Mi are perfect too.

Well let's see what writers had in mind. I like what someone else here wrote - Seo Rim goes with Jang Mi's family into hiding, and Jang Mi takes Seo Rim's place. That seems very fun and reasonable plot. Then Seo Rim will ocassionaly come out of hiding to kiss the Chef, so he is gonna be confused when Jang Mi as Seo Rin is cold to him... I think Baek Ho will have to know about the swap and keep helping, and one day Chef will find out and join. Was it his car that had the camera when Dad fell... ?

Oops sorry the alphabet soup and dyslexia do not mix LOL ok sure Jang Mi is the real name :) I have to redo my whole post LOL

Of course I know it is the same actress that is obvious from my reply about filming both twins in one scene. And yeah I saw her in Queen's house

Yeah, Seo Rim acting is a lot better than Jang Mi's, that actress is just better in that type of role and Jang Mi is ... boring LOL

I am glad you are asking, and I can see from your question how difficult it is for you to understand. But you are trying, so I will try to answer. Be aware that you will not be able to understand this until you relax your mind and listen quietly. It is difficult for you to see things as a flow and to see that opposites hold at the same time. So it will be difficult for me to explain :) This is like a lesson on that yin-yang symbol, you know the circle image of two parts in two colors, each with a dot of the opposite color.

I think the main problem is the STATIC - nothing is static, there are no absolutes, and nothing is perfect.

Seems like your main problem is to see that something that is "good" can have flaws - and that is ok - and that something that is "bad" can have good points... The main issue is to KEEP IMPROVING THE FLAWS

Lomon was always handsome, that is obvious from the first second of the drama He is a pretty good actor too.
The fox was super bratty and annoying and has started to melt. That actress is a very good actress.

So a good actor can annoy you because they make it look real.
A good story has parts that are difficult.
As audience, you have to witness all that, and if the actors are good, you are pulled into it.

SO YOU ASKED, DID I CHANGE MY OPINION? which opinion? you seem to ask as if every criticism of anything is a static cemented opinion that I hate the drama?

So the first question is - why do you think that I hated the drama? and why do you think that one positive comment means I suddenly like the drama?

I never hated this drama... The drama has its ebb and flow and some aspects I liked and some I disliked. This is not a perfect drama and can use improvements. But it is a pretty good drama!!!! I am definitely watching it and will not skip.

So for you, the main take is to realize that nothing is static. Even something that is good, can always keep improving.
And one trace of bad does not make a bad out of good... mistakes are ok... they are meant to be fixed... or just left...

you think like something is EITHER perfect OR bad. Heck no :) there is a whooooole area in between...

So you need to start thinking about that in between .... about fluidity..... about CHANGE..... about MOVING FORWARD IN IMPROVEMENT...

the way you think is the way that people are brainwashed to think because that way of thinking keeps you DOWN,
This is a classic way to supress people.... for example, you either know something and are good, and if you do not know it, you are automatically DUMB STUPID AND THERE IS NO HOPE FOR YOU... this way of thinking PREVENTS YOU FROM LEARNING... and that is precisely why it is promoted, to keep ppl down. So let's say you are a minority and you dont know this or that - and since you dont, you are dumb and there is no hope for you, so dont even try. This is a classic way to keep anyone brown away from studying and getting ahead in life.

Another way that ppl are brainwashed is to think that, if you are a friend, you will do ANYTHING your friend asked for. Heck no way. True friendship is to stand up to your friend and tell them when they are bsing or wrong. True friendship includes disagreement and honest discussion... and there is an art to that.... and skiilZ that most people do not have LOL Nasty people have convinced most ppl that being a friend means lying for your friend, hating ppl that friend tells you to hate, etc - always being 100% in BLIND agreement with the friend. HECK NO!!! that is being a slave, not a friend.

Now, for the "truth".... that is a skill too, how to be objective. There are practices to get better and better at that skill. You will learn those practices the fastest in Tibetan Buddhism, that is my conclusion after shopping around a lot :) The truth is hard to grasp as every person has their blind biases, however, ultimately, there is One truth that is objective, and it can only be grasped with the heart and mind working together.

BASICALLY what I am saying is that everything worth anything has spiritual roots, so it cannot be grasped with the linear mind, like you are trying to do with your question to me, which came 100% from that linear mind, which is very very limited. And there is nothing wrong with that. that mind has its use, it makes sure you cross the street on the green light only, and can calculate how much money you have in your pocket. It has its use, but it is LIMITED use.

So... since you asked about this, you expressed a desire to know, so I told you :) but it might be too much for you and you might be able to understand this only an eon later, but YOU WERE GIVEN AN ANSWER so there is no way you can go back to your old self :)

Let this wash over you and it will become understandable to you one day :) I spent a lot of time to answer you, and I do not have the time to babysit you. The only way you can get more info out of me is to ask specific questions about what I said, bc you really want to know. Any other type of reply will not get you any response :) Bye now.

Uuuuugggh.... that is ugly!!! and realistic... since Seo Rim alrady figured everything out, CEO Cha will try to eliminate her. She does not need her anymore as she now has her son. BUT I really think it is a lot more fun if Seo Rim lives :)

I can see why drama ppl want one twin gone, bc if they both live, how will you make scenes with two of them together... ? but with good video editing, AI etc and some good tricks, wouldnt that be possible... ?

I dislike Ji Sung's "cool" poker-face actually jester-face acting like he is a jester in control, like an invincible JesterSuperman. HOWEVER, when he goees into acting for real and shows emotion or vulnerability, it is AMAZING, like scene drinking with his dad in ep 10. Amazing actor.
His ex is also an amazing actor. It will be interesting when BOTH of them act vulnerable in a scene, if that ever happens. I havent watched ep 11 yet

The plot is plotting now :)

I have to say that the Main Villain Kang Shi Jin is a very handsome man who shows emotion, which really puts a twist on his villain-ness. That actor is an amazing actor and that role is super complex, as he is a monster AND also looks honest and vulnerable in some ways. Amazing acting

which former president is running this shadow government?

WHY does Seo Rim have to be eliminated so that Jang Mi can take her role??? One of the twins can just go traveling. They can swap. etc. If Seo Rin is "dead", then Jang Mi in her place would mean no Jae In in her family, and they would notice, UNLESS Jang Mi tells them she is studying abroad. But then.. only one sister is left to be solving the mystery. That is not fun!!!!

Hm this is tricky!!!! Jang Mi has her father and her mother to take care of, so she cannot disappear. Seo Rim cannot leave CEO Cha bc she has to be close to monitor her and ffigure it out.
So.... either Jang Mi's parents die and she is free to travel and then they swap - but... how? what would Seo Rim be doing alone... ???

So the best is that they swap as-is, but .. Jang Mi cannot pull that off yet... She needs to go to the USA to learn more and then she can attempt to impersonate Seo Rim.

she got the Chef. He is half cooked already :)

Oh, our Seo Rim is not shallow at all - she feels her twin. Her twin does not feel anything LOL Jae In is really ... bogged down, heavy, dulled out. Too bad she ended up in muck and never had a chance to lift her head up.
BUT - Jang Mi grew up genuinely loved by her mother and "father", and she could freely give and receive love, the kid loves her too, and even her brother and sister ... are somewhat nice to her, and Baek Ho loves her too... .
A huge part of Jang Mi's naivette is because her mom/dad are so naive, kind and loving, so to her that is normal, and she is trained to express that.... and also her loser/selfish siblings are a threat to that rosey world so she just IGNORES anything that is evil/bad and pretends it is not there. Jang Mi is Cinderella in the soot phase...

While Seo Rim grew up in hostile and evil environment where everyone was trying to take advantage of her, so she learned the hard way how to survive - she was not loved except by her grandpa but even his love is conditional. And just think - Seo Rim grew up with CEO Chae - gosh Growing up next to that snake.... the roothless liar and manipulator - the fact that Seo Rim is not insane yet is a testimony to her smarts and resilience. Yeah CEO Chae was keeping Seo Rim in good shape to take over Dream group, but still, CEO Chae is a cold blooded snake, and growing up with that required Seo Rim to be incredibly strong.

While Jang Mi was PAMPERED in many ways by her family... and in many ways, Jang Mi had to work a lot harder, to help her mom and work for her family, but ... it is Jae In who is more shallow at this point bc she is just ... too... dull.... Hopefully with some good life experiences and learning situations, Jae In recovers :) soon :) It will be fun to see both twins together :) they CAN run the hotel between them :)

So the meeting of the twins will be yin-yang reunion :)

Ah uri Seo Rim... without her, nothing gets done :)
I love her fuzzy jacket with black boots, she looks cute - and got great legs too :) And acting of Seo Rim actress is a lot better than Jang Mi, who is really dull... closed minded, closed down, dull... yeah it is the same actress acting Seo Rim a lot better
BUT Jang Mi is smart enough not to chase Baek Ho away :) bc he is helping

Did you see the diference between a loser and a smart person? Baek Ho is THE person who is helping Jae In's family solve this mystery. A loser like Tae Pyung wants to chase Baek Ho away bc ... the loser wants to control the situation. FOR A LOSER, THE PRIDE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN GETTING RESULTS. Jang Mi has some smarts in her, and she let Baek Ho stay there and help them figure stuff out.

But that whole bunch Jang Mi side + Baek Ho + really really stupid bisch and evil cheater couple are all very .... closed minded THEY SEE ONLY WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE, they never let in any new information.

So that is where Seo Rin comes into the picture. With her manipulation/lying/getting her way/ making deals / assessing ppl, she is perfectly equopped to solve this.

But I hope she doesnt get into an accident as she runs around in high heels where there are lots of cars and she isnt paying attention... also... her mom and Mr. Lee might remove her... she gota be careful..
BUT URI SEO RIM IS SMART so I hope it will work.
If anything, Jang Mi is in greater danger, bc she is so DUMB and so CLUELLESSLY CARELESS and CEO Chae could kill her any time

No, Seo Rim should NOT die. Both twins should live and solve this. Jang Mi should go to the USA to study bc she needs a major rehaul and some time AWAY FROM HER DUMB FAMILY and away from Korea and Ms Chae's kilings.... and with some wordly experience with some smart ppl, and get her rusty brain going and her maturity and problem solving skills up

Meanwhile Seo Rim wil.... ? let us see Se Rim will probably come up with a plan with her sister - what if, Seo Rim, bc she is selfish, might try to squish this down? we will see...

But ... good news... Seo Rim already snagged the Chef :) she is having him almost eat out of her hand already :) Notice that he did not protest too much :) he actually needs someone like her, to thaw him out. He is a piece of ice, withi pent up anger and bitterness. So he needs Seo Rim to totally blow away all his walls and let himself LIVE and enjoy life. Seo Rim is PERFECT for him

Ah you are wrong. Seo Rim was a sharp cookie from the start. She was always figuring out everything, like her grandpa - she knew how to manipulate him - then the 2 swindlers - she made a deal with them to invite Chef etc etc .... Seo Rim was a great politician and business person from the get go. She knows how to lie, how to pretend, how to scheme, how to figure other people out, how to get what she wants, ...... She knows what is going on....
Shallow? hm... somewhat. She likes Chef and she is gonna get him. Is that shallow or is that PERSISTENCE AND HARD WORK?

And btw she already succeeded - she kissed him and he was not against it. I think he already likes her.

So dont write off Seo Rim, she is our sharp eyes and brain, and sharp mouth too :) AND SHE IS SO ENTITLED THAT SHE NEVER LETS ANYTHING GASLIGHT HER -
SHE STARTED QUESTIONING HER MOTHER. While dumb Jae In says - oh CEO Chae could have never done that.

Jae In's family has very very closed minds, they never let any NEW information in, everything is how they already know it.

Seo Rin on tbe other hand, is a quick learner. She is more educated too and has global life experience, life in the USA, etc.

Jae In is dumb. She has less education and experiences, and lived with a dumb family too. Her entire family NEVER connects the dots and always puts their pride and "i am doing what I want" before anything else - did you see how they tried to kick BH out??? and that dude is their HELPER and helped saved their lives, literally, and helped them in so many tricky situations. But the DUMB Tae Pyung would chase Baek Ho away. THAT FAMILY IS JUST DUMB LOSERS.

Perhaps when Jae In goes to the USA to study, her genes will kick in. She will see broader ways of thinking and her horizons will expand.

you mean he and Miss? I dont think it will happen... bc she is ... a heavy gun. The real 35yr old Ms Hong is a hard worker tough "financial police". I am not sure if Albert would like that :) she is a LOT more experienced and a LOT stricter than him. Her ex is a much better match for her, a mature adult male who wields his power.
But AL is not bad... :) how he invited her on a date ... hm... Al is a great man too :) But a very young one :) H might be happier with a younger woman :) who will be naturally sweeter and more forgiving and easy on him than Ms Hong :) But maybe there is a happy middle for those two? She was flattered by his attention :) But she ran to her ex. all concerned, to help him. I think she likes the wiser dog :) SO LET US SEE :)
