Haha. I don't think he gives a damn about his father accepting Da Rim and the mother only cares that he's with someone he loves and who loves him back.

She's not at the engagement party. They are at Jun's friend's birthday party that is being held at the same hotel.

They are at a child's birthday party that is at the same hotel.

She wasn't hurt by the fire though, right? He was for a moment afraid she'd been.

The crying after missing the bus was so sad. Poor thing was holding on for dear life to not break down over the engagement news because she cannot afford to wallow in sadness. She was looking kind of crazy, though, in Ji-Hyeok's office with that pointer, trying to hold it all in, lol.

I will try to keep hope alive because you're right about how they can be misleading.

I love this series so much, despite the frustrating bits and how it raises my blood pressure and pulse, lol. It would be interesting to see how many down votes the complainers would get if that was an option here. I get free speech and all of that, but why watch and complain here if they hate it so much?

I feel like she has shared a lot more with ML about her troubles and both of her parents. Delusional doesn't begin to describe SML. He needs to get his head checked. I'm trying to think he's not intentionally being manipulative but fear that will soon be impossible, given the 9-10 previews.

Our little Jun is the gift that keeps on giving, lol!!!

In the previews I watched for 9 and 10, he is going to seriously have many of us tearing our hair out because even with the truth out, he's still trying to challenge our beloved ML and claim Da Rim as his. It's crazy!!!

I get your point and don't think he started off trying to be nasty, but...

Episode 8 was so good. It had me on edge the whole hour. And, Jun for the win. May he be rewarded with many major chess championship wins. Auntie Darim!!!

I think that after the initial shock of learning the truth, our desperately-in-love male lead will understand why she's been lying. He knows all about her financial woes. She never talks about her "husband" unless Jihyok brings him up. And I don't think she's ever spoken about her "son" or being a mum like the others do. She talked about her father when planting the sapling and her mother when she was talking in her sleep at the hospital.

I can't imagine he would make her suffer knowing all of this. The little tricks he played on her after paying off the loan sharks were just for laughs and giggles. Can't imagine he'd want to see her suffer in any form, but especially by his hands in part because that would hurt him, too.

I also think that his mother urging him to follow his heart will go a long, long way toward helping him forgive the lie. So glad the two mums had that chat because Darim's mother talked some sense into his. Thank the drama gods.

Why does he so desperately want his mother to get divorced? Does he hope she'll find love again?

As for Seon, like others, I want to push my hands through my nice TV screen and slap him. How can he be so clueless? Someone below said his ex-wife probably ran for her life away from him, lol. He is seriously gross. I also wish better for SFL, but the heart wants what the heart wants. She's turned out to be such a surprise and is so wonderful with Jun. And I bet she's the type who would run off and elope if her parents disapprove of the sap.

Finally, can I be put into an induced coma until next Wednesday?

Watch it all! At least unlike us, you won't have to wonder when the truth is revealed. It's such a treat!!!

It's so, so, so, so good! I will rewatch this series many times, I predict. That said, it can be a bit maddening because we want our leads together ASAP and they have such great chemistry. It honestly makes my pulse race, it's that good, even though some bits drive me a bit crazy.

Let me tell you this, I applauded like I was at a Tony-winning play!!!!

Honestly, this series makes my pulse race!!!

I totally agree. In fact, I think once the mum finds out about the arranged marriage she will tell him not to do it. And I'm so glad the mothers are becoming friends. I predict that in the end, the leads and their mothers will live happily ever after in chaebol heaven on a lovely estate.

The fact that they both prioritize their mothers will also impact his response to her being "married." He's basically about to do the same thing with the arranged marriage.

I don't understand why some people here are so hateful and sanctimonious. This is a rom com, for goodness sake and an early holiday gift. I love every second of it except when I'm hating on that stupid Seon, lol.

Oh, how this made me laugh.

I have not yet watched but he was way, way, way too much in episode 7, running around like a maniac. And he can't take a hint AT ALL. When he found our leads and ML grabbed her hand, they only pulled apart when the others turned up.

I want to slap some sense into him.

I'm torn here. Can totally see your vision of him teasing her a bit, but generally speaking, I think he's so gaga over her that he's going to be sooooo relieved that she's not really an adulteress and him a cheater, plus he has key background re: the mum's health/hospital bill crisis and the loan sharks to justify the lies, that will help him get over the whole fake marriage business pretty quickly. He knows firsthand that her struggle was real and owns the organs to prove it, lol.

Then the four leads must join forces to save the ML's mum and kill the arranged marriage and defeat the evil half sister.

It is so much crazy fun!!! Can't think of anything else like it, though other more seasoned Kdrama watchers may be able to. Like, the ML and FL got me watching a couple of series I would never otherwise have watched (one historical/costume, the other modern with a fantasy twist).

Yeah. It's, like, enough already. Your explanation is perfect and explains everything he's doing wrong.
