Haha, the last one for me (and still #1, but this show may make it a tie) was Go-jin and Shin-a on Crazy Love. I'm enjoying this romance and steeling myself against the probable makjang moment that seems to be a hallmark of many PMY dramas.

Sometimes I watch a k-drama and just think - oh get on with it and admit your feelings.

And then there are others - like "Love in Contract" - where I think, I can wait because whenever it happens, it will be heart-stopping. I love the way the writers are portraying ji-ho. The childhood history was helpful (I guess) to understand why he is so introverted, but frankly it didn't matter to me. He is what he is. He wants to be a good man that does good things. It's been months since I looked forward to the next episode of a show.

"There were moments were he looked happy because she seemed interested in things they were doing together but then she kept saying it was all work. He doesn't know what's real and what's not. He doesn't know if the kiss was because its her job to make everyone believe she loves him or because she actually has feelings. On the other hand she also has no clue what he's thinking and feeling. "

Well, when they finally figure it out or act upon their feelings, that will be one hell of a grand show and I am looking forward to it.

Here's the original IG post from the actor Jang Eui-Don who plays one of the members of the Unanimous Assembly. It's obvious photoshop so not sure what it means other than these are the actors that he got to spend time with during filming of several episodes of Part 2. But no Young Lady Jin? 😢😢

It's not just you. 🥰

I have steeled myself against the inevitable - JBY probably died when she drowned at age 10. Too many recent references and hints to her "body" and not her "soul". I do not believe this was the original script/plan - but something happened and rewrites were obvious starting around Ep. 16. #BuYeonDeservedBetter - absolute agree. As someone who was Team JBY from the beginning, I am sad - I will be ecstatic if JBY "soul" is still alive, but have lowered expectations. I will continue to watch because I adore ChoDang and am crossing my fingers 🤞🤞🤞 that Maidservant Kim and Park Jin will also have a happy ending. Also Sang Ho (very worried about him) Jo Wol, Yeo Sul and others. Jin Mu will die, together with Queen, but worried about Mama Jin, I would never have watched if not for my interest in JSM and probably will never watch another Hong Sister show. Bittersweet is not my thing.

May I spread a rumor? It's about my very favorite AoS guy - Yoo In-soo. Most know that he is already filming in his latest project ("Bad Mother") but rumor has it that he will also appear in Uncanny Counter 2. That would be so cool (if he is a good guy and not a retread of Gwangun (??) from a show that involves zombies and I will never, ever watch even to watch YIS) . He would be reuniting with Uncle Park Jin (Yoo Joon Sang) if the rumor is true. Because of the rumor, I started to watch Uncanny Counter 1. And then I discovered that one of the female leads is played by Yeom Rye Han - the actress that portrayed the "mystery woman" (Geom's mother) in Ep. 1 of AoS. One reason I love K-drama is the small world it involves - actors/actresses don't hesitate to take cameos, minor support roles. I love seeing familiar faces.

Don't worry about how you express yourself - sometimes I forget that many people who comment on MDL come from a wide variety of countries and languages. 😊😊 You are always very positive for your guy! I visited this page earlier today and see many "broad-brush" attacks on JSM fans for comments made on a completely different forum (Twitter). Very, very disappointing. Very discouraging.
I follow JSM fans on twitter and all have been very careful to stay positive and condemn negativity. Keep fan wars off of MDL, I say! Cyber hugs to you jxxvvxxkstan. 🥰🥰

Very good summary. 😊

I'm enjoying it - always looking forward to new episodes.

A fan's deeply held feelings should never be considered a "tarnish" of any celebrity's good image.

This might help you, but it contains some minor spoilers.

I may be wrong, but I don't think she ever looked at the judge - she just looked down at the table and repeated her standard mantra.

Based upon various dialogue in early episodes, Bu yeon was born approximately 1 year before Jang Uk. The actress was 10-11 years old when she filmed AoS and Bu-yeon disappeared 10 years ago - which would make her about 20-21 in AoS.

In the early episodes, it was clear - again from the dialogue - that "Naksu"/Cho Yeong was born several years before Jang Uk and was closer in age to Seo Yul. Her father was killed after Jang Uk's birth, but Jang Uk's father supposedly left soon after Naksu's father was killed. But based upon recent interviews and a major timeline revision in Ep. 19/20, it appears the writers have revised her age down to Jang Uk/Bu-yeon/Dang-gu.

I just began watching w/my vpn and Disney+. I selected Singapore. My usual go-to of Hong Kong wasn't allowing me to access.

Ugh, a pox on Disney for licensing these shows and then restricting to Asia! I started to watch this (glad I kept my VPN), enjoying the early stages of the story, but watching on my computer means I fall asleep. In the middle of the trial (ep. 1). I know I will enjoy it - but wish I could watch on my TV while sitting on my sofa (like Neflix). Does anyone know WHY Disney won't license in the US or Europe??

Agree with you. Right now she is doing massive promotion (several appearances each week) for Project Wolf Hunting, her vlog, photo shoot with Elle Korea. Good for her! She begins filming for her new movie in November - that's why if there is a "window", it is very small and in late October. Meanwhile, I cannot wait to see how our adorable ChoDang couple evolves in Part 2. 😊

Hoping this will help replace "Good Job" in the fluffy, comedic romance gap in my kdrama viewing. I know nothing about the leads, but the synopsis sounds amusing.

Officially from tVN: "Jung So Min will not appear in Part 2." Unless she will be secretly taping during the last part of October, I don't think we will even get a cameo and frankly, a cameo would be worthless to me. I'll be watching for other characters and story arcs that interest me.

I guess I missed that one. 😊
