Why are you spamming everyone's reply claiming how "Great" this drama is???
Are you just obsessed, or getting paid by the team of this drama?? The latter would make sense. But otherwise, you've kind of lost it!!

"TIH is still one of the most watched dramas" oh gosh!!! And then the ratings still going down,, even after somany people watching it.... Noooo!!! lmao

And I'm the loser?!!! This is too funny!!

Further dip in the ratings!!!!

Totally agreed, if portraying a morally ambiguous or evil character, at least do a good job so it's entertaining, and people won't feel bored or lost watching it, like here.

So true, according to OP apparently "maturity" is when you like horrible people and their actions, while "lack of maturity" is when you criticize it. LMAO talk about being confused.

By complicated if you mean lazy script writing and an actress who can only give one expression for every scene, then YESSS we can't handle it!!

Happy watching though XOXO

Yep, you the only one!!

Cause it's fun to watch train wrecks sometimes!!

No, but seriously: What's wrong with The Impossible Heir??

I'm torn between believing whether the writing straight up sucks ass or is intentionally done to make the viewer despise every character except Huiju.

Her stark contrast from the rest of the characters, having a normal moral compass, the way she clocks everybody (especially the shady FML) and her overall likable and sassy quality make me feel like the writers aren't oblivious to how they've handled these characters. or maybe it's just Heejin's charisma and the way she portrayed this role with so much life and emotions that makes the viewer attached to her and root for her which makes sense because if any other actress played Huiju she wouldn't be as likable and might have been passed off as a textbook kdrama mean girl who is snotty, entitled and rude.
nevertheless, I think she will serve a bigger purpose in the future. we are given too much context to her character and emphasis on her as a shortcut to being the heir through marriage to ignore and it makes me feel like she will be the answer to the power struggle. the constant comments from Inju's wife about her and Taeho's possible union feel like foreshadowing.

now that TaeO will be going to jail for murder accusations, it will be the kickstart of his real revenge arch. he has tasted the pain of betrayal from the chairman, inha, and Hyewon, and he will completely lose it and step on everybody on the way to the top and his help will be Huiju. whether he reciprocates her feelings or not, he will be paranoid enough to use her. It will not be surprising because his character is already unlikeable and had been established as a weirdo after that kiss with Hyewon.

I think this will be the route writers take because for whatever reason they want the viewer to hate everyone and the ending will be very unsatisfying. In conclusion, yes the writing sucks ass. I'm trying hard to redeem it because I think Lee Jae Wook progressively gets hotter in each episode.

I just hope my babygirl Heejin gets enough recognition for her performance and be able to bag some leading roles in the future. she's so talented and has this air of main character and insane charisma.

Nah, the plot is just poor writing! Taeju happening would just make sense as one of the plot points, but really the direction and the script is just all over the place, beyond salvageable to me, at least. And it's only a 12 episode drama, and half is almost done, I don't know what at this point would make it a coherent script!!

But I'm enjoying it too, observing (and roasting) all the flaws and obviously the terrible acting of one of the leads.

😂 .. But really you gotta drop defending this lousy script and spam replying everyone about how 'great' this drama is. How everyone is just 'missing' the point.

When it sucks, it's ok to say it sucks.

Huh? I hate boners?!! What lmao

A terrible makjang, with a messy script, with terrible acting from a lead. No chemistry between potential love interests, and Oh! look the ratings went down again.
And it'll plummet further.

When you have a green forest right in front of you, but you chose the dusty, old red carpet you get what you deserve.

(I'm looking at you Taeoh)

Yo we got the first fanfics for Taeho/Huiju, we got ourselves a little fandom!!! Yayayay!!

No really I'm down for a BL between Inha and Taeoh, like seriously.

My question is, while I get as a first-time actress, you're probably not going to be very good, BUT why select someone who has never acted before or at least never been a lead, with limited acting experience to be the first female lead for such a challenging role?? That too as a direct love interest of two well-known male actors?? In a role where you're pretty much both the antagonist as well the potential lover of 2 male leads?? A first-timer should probably start with something simpler, like a romcom or web drama lead or even in a role that doesn't require such a complex characterization, but to jump right in for such a nuanced, complicated character???
Like who is the casting director? And also how did the directors and producers say Yes to the shots of her after filming?? Like did no one see, how excruciatingly bad they actually are... The fault of this debacle is the abysmal writing and the fact that no one thought that the acting was subpar, and really not matching the script.

And now the rating went down, and chances are it'll go down further.

Me too... She totally deserves to be a FL, Hee Jin is such a good actress.

Yeah, like Taeoh needs to get his shit together, and move on from his business partners' wife.... But if he doesn't want to step up with Huiju, Hui Chan is not bad either, if he behaves himself, though

It was so funny... like dude, seriously?!!!
