Soon Ae and Squinters colluded. Since she just had a C-section she could not have been well enough to drop off SJ, Squinters holds the key to the secret.

Yes, she has been stripped of her title of acting CEO. SW now holds management rights, and SJ has been promoted to Team Lead, but SA isn’t backing down. She’s still fighting ruthlessly, and the major problem is that she still has access to one account, giving her an opportunity to drain company funds through a paper company.

This means the battle isn’t over—SA is still maneuvering behind the scenes, and unless they cut off her financial access, she could do serious damage. If she succeeds in rerouting funds, the fallout could be immense, making it even harder to stop her for good.

Hope SW and SJ will act quickly enough to block her last financial loophole, otherwise SA is going to pull off one final devastating move. The stakes are still high!

I am beginning to feel sorry for NJ, he is beginning to lick his wounds. He walked into this believing he had struck gold with SA, but now, reality is unraveling before his eyes. First, by delaying NJ’s appointment as Director and tying it to securing funding, she’s effectively keeping him in a vulnerable position—dangling the promise of power while ensuring he remains dependent on her.

It’s a strategic play on her part, reinforcing that she’s the one in control. Given how NJ is slowly realizing her true nature, this must feel like another blow to his expectations. He likely thought he was going to rise alongside her, but instead, he’s being sidelined at the exact moment he expected recognition.

The forged Power of Attorney was a brutal wake-up call—it’s one thing to ignore red flags, but this deception is impossible to overlook. His silence at the meeting and the boardroom speaks volumes. He’s realizing just how little power he actually holds in this equation, as SA strategically erases his contributions while securing her own dominance.

The fact that the Board of Directors remains unaware of their marriage suggests SA has kept certain truths buried for her advantage. NJ must be feeling trapped—betrayed by someone he trusted, yet unable to openly challenge her without implicating himself.

NJ’s growing unease is a key part of the unfolding drama. His disillusionment with SA is becoming more pronounced, especially with the Power of Attorney deception and her blatant self-promotion at the Board meeting. The fact that she denied him the Director position under the guise of securing funding only adds to his frustration.

All these elements paint a picture of a man who thought he had secured power and influence but now finds himself sidelined and betrayed. His silence in key moments signals the weight of his realization—he’s seeing SA’s true nature, but is he too far gone to do anything about it? Do you think he’ll muster the courage to push back, or is he too far gone to reclaim his footing?

With no two pennies to rub together, NJ is disposal or will be collateral damage in the end.

SJ' striking resemblance of the CEO's wife could have startled her - the dead is alive!

issue shares in a private company in South Korea, a board of directors resolution is needed, followed by shareholder approval, either through a general meeting or written consent. The articles of incorporation must allow for the issuance of shares, and new shareholders must sign an agreement outlining the details. For foreign investors, registering with the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) and obtaining an Investment Registration Certificate (IRC) may be required.
Detailed Steps:
1. Board of Directors Resolution:
The board must draft a resolution outlining the number of shares to be issued and the terms of the issuance.
2. Shareholder Approval:
The issuance of new shares requires shareholder approval, which can be obtained through a general meeting or written consent from all shareholders.
3. Articles of Incorporation:
The articles of incorporation must explicitly allow for the issuance of shares.
4. Shareholder Agreement:
New shareholders will typically need to sign an agreement outlining the number and type of shares they are acquiring.
5. Foreign Investor Registration:
If the new shareholders are foreign investors, they may need to register with the FSS and obtain an IRC.
Example Scenario:
Imagine a South Korean private company, "A Company," wants to raise capital by issuing new shares.
The board of directors of A Company would first decide on the number of shares to issue, the price per share, and any special terms (e.g., voting rights, dividend preferences).
They would then draft a resolution outlining these details and present it to the shareholders.
If the shareholders approve the resolution, typically through a general meeting or written consent, the shares can be issued.
New shareholders would sign agreements outlining the details of their investment, and if they are foreign investors, they would need to complete the registration process with the FSS.
Important Considerations:
Transfer Restrictions:
The articles of incorporation can include provisions restricting the transfer of shares, requiring board approval for any transfer.
Legal Counsel:
It's advisable to seek legal advice from a qualified professional in South Korea to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

The actor's brother.

I know what you meant, i just wanted it to be made clear that she did not have them in possession - to be lost. SA wanted to give the appearance as if she had them through the forged POA.

An intriguing perspective of why ME fibs! It does seem like Man Eun has been shaping a reality that might not align with the truth—perhaps out of a deep longing for connection or a refusal to let go of the past. Naming the children after Pi could be her way of preserving an emotional bond, even when he was absent for so long.

Her persistent attachment to him, despite the years apart, suggests she was holding onto an idealized version of their relationship. Whether it was denial, hope, or sheer determination, she found ways to keep him symbolically present in her life.

Do you think she ever truly believed her own fabrications, or was she simply trying to maintain harmony within the family? There’s a lot to unpack in her mindset!

You might be right! There are no baby pictures of her, which suggests she may have been older than a toddler when she was adopted. If she had been taken in as an infant, there would likely be photographs documenting that stage of her life. This discrepancy raises questions about the true timeline of her adoption.

The sisters even had to fabricate stories about her being a big eater to explain her presence because she was not a baby when she was taken in by Man Eun's family.

The leech only has three children - Soon Ae, SA and NJ.
A powerful metaphor about greed and insatiable desire—just like a leech that continuously takes, never feeling satisfied. The imagery emphasizes how some things in life are endlessly demanding, always wanting more.

The divide between crassness and class is a driving force in how the Actor’s mother perceives those around her. Despite the flaws and complexities of Soon Ae’s character, she still views her as belonging to a more refined social tier compared to the PIs, whom she finds vulgar and uncultured.

This explains why she outright rejects MJ but is open to CA—her judgments are deeply rooted in societal hierarchies rather than individual character. It’s fascinating how ingrained social biases can shape relationships, even when reality challenges them.

This plot twist, Soon Ae as JT's mother, is a sharp critique of how society constructs and perceives class. It reveals that status isn't always earned through merit but can be manipulated and fabricated, as in Soon Ae’s case. Her deception—pretending to be the CEO’s rescuer, switching babies, and abandoning her son—highlights the lengths people may go to in order to climb the social hierarchy.

For the actor’s mother, who placed Soon Ae on a pedestal as the epitome of social status, the revelation would be a direct challenge to her deeply ingrained beliefs. It exposes the irony in her judgment—she scoffed at Miju and dismissed those she deemed "lower-class," yet unknowingly raised the abandoned son of a woman who achieved her high status through dishonesty.

This twist forces characters (and viewers) to reflect on society’s obsession with class and reputation. It suggests that nobility isn’t determined by wealth or social rank but by integrity and actions.

Remember, after the failed wedding, she went to thank Soon Ae and her family for exposing the deception. She continued visiting Soon Ae's salon, maintaining their connection, and during their conversations, she mentioned that her daughter, CA, was still available. OH relayed this information to the Actor, but he adamantly refused any involvement with CA.

If it is revealed that JT is Soon Ae's mother, that revelation would be an absolute bombshell! If the actor’s mother has idolized Soon Ae as the pinnacle of social status, only to discover that she manipulated her way to the top through deception and betrayal, it would shatter everything she believed in. The irony of her looking down on others while unknowingly raising the son of a woman who schemed her way into high society is a dramatic twist that could completely change her character’s trajectory.

The moment she realizes the truth—about the baby switch, the abandoned son, and the false heroism—could be one of the most emotionally charged scenes in the series. Will she feel betrayed? Will she try to justify Soon Ae’s actions? Or will this revelation force her to reevaluate her own prejudices?

This drama is really delivering on its themes of class, deception, and identity. What do you think will happen next? Will the actor’s mother accept the truth, or will she fight against it?

The CEO shares are still intact. SW's mother opted for management rights including appointment of the CEO and not collateralise the shares. She did this on the strength of the legitimised POA.

Still have 14 episodes left.

Her promotion was illegal, it will be nullified by the power of attorney. SW's mother will sway the vote for SW to be the new CEO with the amount of capital she is bringing in. In addition, she misrepresented herself twice before SW's mother - first, calling herself the CEO when she was not; second she fraudulently wrote the power of attorney. In her books, she is a fraud through and through!

Once the process is legitimised, she will have access to nothing as the funding will be under lock and key.

Any time. It is my one of the two dramas I have invested my time to watch and comment on.

As SA and NJ stood poised in the conference room, expecting the familiar rhythm of control, an unexpected intrusion disrupted their certainty. The grand doors swung open, SW’s mother stepped in. Shortly after SJ and SW stepped in, their presence carrying an air of undeniable authority. The polished boardroom, once a place of calculated influence, was now a battlefield of shifting power.

A fly, caught in the tension, hovered—a restless, chaotic movement in the stillness of the room. As it buzzed erratically through the charged air, it seemed drawn toward SA and NJ, reflecting the discomfort blooming across their stunned expressions. They had ruled these halls with assurance, yet now, uncertainty gripped them like the unwelcome insect seeking entry.

The words fell sharply into the silence—“Meet the new part owners of the company.” The statement landed with undeniable force, shattering whatever confidence SA and NJ had clung to. Their eyes widened, bodies stiffened, as if the air itself had betrayed them. The fly circled, teasing fate, darting dangerously close, as if mocking their paralysis in the moment of irrevocable change.

The symbolism was almost poetic—just as one could swat away a buzzing pest, they had once dismissed SJ and SW as insignificant obstacles. But now? Now, the unwelcome truth couldn’t be ignored. The balance had shifted, and nothing would be the same again.
