Chairman is in the background, he has ppl tailing and he knows. But he is indirectly a villain - he doesnt care for ppl, he cares for his company - so he lets CEO Chae do nasty stuff and covers it up

As someone so astutely said - JM cannot be thinking that HY is using SR's bdray for her safe, or REPEATEDLY hiding critical info from her teammates "to not hurt their feelings", or thinking that a family doctor will do a swindle with her and keep it quiet, etc. JM got in there to rob the safe but she has no clue how the safe works and did not think of possible passwords...and did not think of the cctv... Things like these are very recklessly stupidly dumb.

So how can it be fixed? how can you fill in the time of the drama with smarter plot? I guss we have to help the MBC and the writer to save their drama.
SO GUYS, write your opinions, how would you fix this script now.

For example, GoldDiggers are interesting bc they observe, talk about it, come up with a theory, try to prove it, then discuss again and again....

For example I would have JM and BH repeatedly spend time discussing if they want to say something to Chairman and why yes why not. They should have been doing THAT on the way to police station. Also, making copies of their evidence....
I would have more scenes of JM planning her moves and doing stuff, like searching, even when she is not caught. I would show JM thinking over and over about telling BH.... it would be a fun skit to have scenes where she imagines what could happen....
I would have more scenes about JH thinking what happened to him in the past as he contemplates the future....
I would TOTALLY cut out supposedly coy scenes where JM brushes off BH's romancing. It just looks stupid to see a grown woman behave like an elementary school kid. I would put more scenes of them flirting for real.
I would have more scenes of JM's family and how they live now.
I would have more scenes of SR and taking care of her in the hospital - how are they hiding her where she is? and I would wake her up asap. I would have more scenes of HY trying to find SR hospital and failing. Like trailing BH - how is he avoiding that? It would be fun to see that there was a plan to protect SH and how it failed. The way it is, it seems they just left SH alone and SR alone without any measures...

I think very simple fixes would give a message that JM is not a dumb naive good little girl but a more mature adult who is planning her moves and moving on forward, despite her flaws, the same for her team. I think we as audience want to see that. I think the plot as it is now is ok but it needs to be jazzier, we need to see how JM is working hard on her revenge. She can ail and be dumb but we dont see her TRYING

Yeah now it finally exploded with SH caught and seems like JM caught too..... but what has JM team learned from all this so far... ????

MBC IS AT FAULT bc this cannot be getting closer to Yang Mi Who Swallowed the Sun. It is episode 80, almost, Jang Mi cannot be too similar to her dumb stupid naive self she was at the start of the drama.
WE NEED TO SEE JANG MI CHANGING, TRANSFORMING. Is that a concept that MBC has issues with? That women learn grow and improve?

the MBC production is at fault by ONLY putting out stupid FLs, and this drama was not advertised properly either.

Someone at MBC needs to change asap as clearly MBC has huge issues. MBC should have learned from the huge flop that Woman Who Swallowed the Sun was- the major issue was that FL and ML were DUMB and plot was cheesy and FL was essentially the same from ep 1 to ep 120, except better clothes and ability to stay calm. Essentially, a cheap lazy cheesy crude writer. Seems like MBC did not get the message yet???

KBS got the message. After the flop and complaints that Graceful Liar was dumb, they put Our Happy Days and Pearl in Red and both dramas are NOT dumb. They also majorly improved their weekend drama. KBS is doing well.

Now again MBC put a dumb character as THE lead character. Kdramas are sexist and women are either dumb and kind OR villains. but taking it this far to dumb is ... really dumb. It is going to kill MBC daily dramas. Hey MBC, WAKE UP!

Again this does not have to be Agent 007 smart quality because these are ordinary people. We the audience are not requiring a special forces thriller... It is totally ok that JM team makes mistakes and is not the smartest in the world.... . They do NOT have to be mad rocket scientists... But they have to have SOME common sense and GROWTH.

Some ideas for improvement are in the spoiler. I invite all audience to provide suggestions for the script.
Even small changes that show that team JM is trying would help a LOT.

dr kim called him OR the tail... then ... the tail....
CEO Chae is a dumb one too :) not seeing that :)

well ... that's talking like a slave driver? :)

She is getting on my nerves too but I dont wish her to die :)

and her twin Yu Na. Both are medically mentally ill serial killers - liars - psychopaths - the same exact kind - and now they are in the same house...

He said - a time bomb that blew my life...
That teenager ... what a moron... Why did the family send mom and sons "for education" to Canada when kids are so small and it really makes no difference? It just doesnt make sense. Do S Koreans do this ???

His daughter is the only one harmed in all this

And he is an example of an "ordinary good person" and a rather dumb "low level person" who just balooned into greed when he was given the chance
Now we see how Nazism, wars, colonization, slavery, inquisition, global warming, 6th extinction of species, burning Amazon, ... ... Vietnam, Gaza, bonbing Iran, .... and many other nasty things happened and still happen, dont we?
It is all Mad ____ fill in the blanks ____ Dreams.....

I dont know where the song comes from :) ask your elders.
I heard it for the first time in the USA as a children's song.

This drama is turning into a great fashion show. Min Ju looks awesome in white shirt with thin dark stripes, dark gray tie and a black vest and pants from a 3-piece suit.
His aunt looks awesome in dark brown pants suit.
I love Wife's sparkley earings
I love Chloe's triple pearl necklace. It looks good with the black pantsuit. It looks ok on her but is not PERFECT on her.
The Chairman is finally not wearing purple but he looks awesome in a purple shirt.

but that's useless. JM is SO DUMB that no amount of beating will help. She is just naturally and permanently DUMB. It is really a disability she has. Do you really want anyone beating a disabled person??

Plus, those criminals are not smart. They are just violent trash, just slightly smarter than JM, who is at the end of the IQ spectrum

for sure - we know that he knows about the blackmailer. Seems like he knoew rom Dr. Kim. Seems like the dude taking photos in front of poilice was his guy too

The award to the stupidest goes to: "Omg BH does not even know that JH is adopted. He will be so shocked to hear that CEO Chae is his mom. So I cannot tell him" AND ALL THAT WHILE IN A RUSH TO ROB CEO CHAE's SAFE
PLUS she lies straight to BH's face about the bday.
PLUS she was supposed to LEARN from BH, who showed her the video immediately.

WHEN IS SEO RIM COMING BACK?

JANG MI IS FIRED AS THE LEAD BC SHE IS TOO DUMB TO BE A LEAD.

JANG MI IS EFECTIVELY A DISABLED PERSON BC SHE IS JUST PERMANENTLY NATURALLY LOW IQ AND IT CANNOT BE HELPED

PLEASE MBC DO NOT MAKE YET ANOTHER FLOP, JANG MI WHO SWALLOWED THE SUN !!!!!!

thank you for your patience while I was confused by your posts :)

I am not following what you are saying, none of that is in this thread.
Anyways, we kinda cleared the misunderstanding, so have a nice evening :)

I see... :)
Yeah Bon Appetit ML was fantastic, his enthusiasm and energy was so wonderful to watch

Ppl say that this Roh Jeong-hui was ok in 18 again or something - I forgot what ppl say - BUT AS A SUPPORT ROLE . ANd since then she got plastic surgery, lost too much weight, and went totally under but is still on the screen and ALL her dramas are flops - Witch, Crushology, Our Univ.

kdramas suffer from sexism so ... a complex and common sense smart FL is hard to come by :) They are mostly loser clutzes - dumb and kind, OR villains. A common sense strong woman is hard to come by. The situation is slightly improving. But the audience likes sexism LOL that is the problem LOL

Sure. I have a recent feed with some ideas that I submitted to the MDL list of "empowered women"
So go to my Profile and check out the feed or LIST OF DRAMAS THAT SHOW ENPOWERED WOMEN this list is a work in progress

Oh it is possible to share directly! here it is - from housewives to a president :) https://mydramalist.com/profile/InsoectorMegre/feeds/b3vdD1he

Yes FL actress from Our Universe clearly gets her roles not based on her merit. So many ppl said that so there must be something behind it.

ML actor from Our Universe is a WONDERFUL actor - so expressive! - and a masterful comedian. He is one of my fav actors. Imo OU was one of his best roles ever!!!!!! So complex and he nailed it all - he acted a wide range from being a jerk to being a good dad, beign romantic, being duped, going through healing the family trauma -

and it was pleasure to watch him in OU!!!! HE CONNECTS! he was sooo good with the baby. So many ppl had ML syndrome :) as we all wanted to see a LOT more of him.

FL is a piece of cement, a plastic skinny doll incapable of acting, incapable of showing emotion, always looking tired and lifeless. Cannot connect with anyone. Totally piece of cement to the baby. Overal take - Totally avoid any drama with this actress :)

This is one of those dramas that use immature / toxic females in audience as cash cows, and the swindling line is: "Yeah sure, the flawed one, you can get a great guy waiting forever for you, even while you run around chasing the other sexier guys. Dream on :) "

I dropped this trash after ep 5, i think and I just came back to post this comment bc I now see the pattern.

The comments ppl are posting here are THE SAME comments as in Still Shining, etc.

Kdramas are catering to the huge audience of immature women. Dynamite Kiss, Surely Tomorrow, Our Universe, Practical Guide to Love, Still Shining, Yumi's Cells season 2, even Would you Marry Me, etc etc etc etc etc ARE ALL ABOUT AN IMMATURE WEAK SNOWFLAKE WOMAN GRABBING A NICE GUY FOR GOOD AND ESSENTIALLY USING HIM

Very young women who have no life experience find this very appealing, and also older women who just never matured and are still alone or in bad relationships love to eat these cheap soapy rosey delulu stories.
This drama needs to be served with a subscription to free youtube videos by Stephan Speaks relationship coach for women.

In short, my dear ones, the drama is duping the audience, and some love it, so these dramas still exist.

IF YOU DONT LIKE THIS KIND OF STUFF, then my sincere advice to you is to drop the drama asap as soon as you see the red flags - if the FL does not grow SIGNIFICANTLY by the middle of the drama, you should have dropped it.

this is the best, concise review of this drama that I have seen
