I'm a little confused though...will the cafe part go away? If so, what happens to the employees?

I wondered about that as well...he even wished him good luck. But I think @joetoca is right, he was sort of shocked and just went with it.

At least we know why Ji-Hyeok told Seongjae in the earlier episode that "he (Seongjae) couldn't be in a relationship with Eunoh".

Yep, definitely getting more interesting.

Do you think that Seongjae will get to the point of confessing to Eunoh and get rejected (and subsequently get comforted by Subin)?

Or will the reveal of Eunoh's relationship with stepmom come
first?
I don't think there is any way that stepmom will let Seongjae be with Eunoh. Even if the stepbrother/sister relationship wasn't a block. What do you think?

@Nexe, I thought about you when I watched that. We discussed it when that episode aired and I think I disagreed with you about Seongjae's intentions. It seems that you and Ji-Hyeok feel the same way!

Oh man, I did the same thing...commented but didn't post because I was in a rush.

I said that just because the IT guy doesn't listen, doesn't mean he doesn't observe, right? 😆

They almost had him getting too silly in yesterday's episode...like a teenager. But it is sorta cute. He is, as you said...confused and shocked.

I agree...50 episodes is a lot, especially when we only see 2 episodes a week. We are investing our time over almost a 6 month period.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be worth it.😁

I agree with a lot of what you said and I felt those same things.

However, I decided to continue watching and I think that was the right choice for me. Things have changed a little from how they were. There is still some character growth that is needed from both the leads, but I think that will come...at least I hope so.

Hope you will change your mind and keep watching with us!

If it plays like this, then we are left with an even bigger mystery, right? What does the stepmother want from Eunoh?

😁...I was just trying to be funny...just that he may be young, but he's an adult (grown) and a cute one at that!

But he's a grown 24 yo...😉😁

I second the recommendation to watch Bon Appetit, Your Majesty. Very good.

I'm also watching Love's Ambition cdrama. Man, that one has me on the edge of my seat...

Unfortunately, you are probably right about Subin. It makes me cringe to think that she will get exactly what she wants. I wish she would have some character growth and realize that she's prioritizing the wrong things.

Yes, ugh...that type of character really just irritates me. The materialistic point of view, the baby girl behavior, etc. If the sister wasn't going to (apparently) wind up with SeongJae, I would just ignore her and FF through her scenes. She's that annoying to me.

While Ji-Hyeok displayed the same type of materialistic viewpoint when he was going to marry the rich girl, I feel like the motivation is different. He still didn't show a lot of character with that move, but I do feel like that was more of a one-off type of behavior born of desperation, not an ingrained way of thinking like it seems his sister has.

Pairing FL with the 2ML was my first choice as well, but that ain't gonna happen. At this point, they have painted the picture too clearly for Subin and SeongJae to have any other outcome.

Of course, if it's all a big plot twist, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Everyone's IQ is questionable at this point!

I know...we're in the same boat! You hang in as well!

Nice analysis. The line "noble intent wrapped in a dubious method" is spot on, imo.

I agree...I'm completely stressed out about it. I feel like I'm holding my breath every episode and I'm only on episode 7.

I'm not sure if I can take almost 40 more episodes of this craziness.
The level of stupidity from almost every character is mind-blowing.

The absurd "down-filled jacket" fight was just about the last straw for me.

😆
