I've watched so many edits of this on YT that like 75% of my feed is now FR edits and asian GL short shows lol. JaeYi and SeulGi literally broke my YT algorithm

It was overall an enjoyable one time watch. The last 2-3 episodes were a bit messy though. They tried to squeeze too much into the last hour and change of the series, and it shows. The ending is open, but overall happy imo. The worst part about the ending is the fact that the dad only spent a couple months in jail and basically got away with everything.

That part was kind of w/e to me. She offered more than he asked, and yeah she was trying to stop his fall but still caused it to break since he actually regained balance before she pushed/caught him.

The part that was even more annoying was he was using a pen and not his tablet to take notes after she gave him the tablet.

The flasher just getting a judgemental stare at his junk by Gyeong cracked me up.

The water after the pills is kind of like showing they make you hyperfocus. Almost like being in a sensory deprivation chamber. She doesn't see/hear/smell anything like she's deep underwater, so all her focus is only on her study material

The note taking thing is so stupid. "I don't have my tablet, so I can't take notes" MF you can write as well. Then she's doing it for free?!? Maybe if it was like 50K Won a class or something off the debt it would make sense, but making her do it and still making her pay the debt is ridiculous

I'm actually glad I read this, because I ff through all the other eps credits to make sure there wasn't a teaser or anything, and they only did it on the finale when I honestly wouldn't have bothered any more.

Weird choice to have post-credits only on the finale when they never did before

I really don't agree with this sentiment really.

The nurse, yeah she was trash at her last job, but not really a needs to die trash. SeOk also only killed her because she was blackmailing her, she didn't even know about her past IIRC.

Probation DV guy, yeah sure.

Young cop, cold blooded murder for no reason.

Doctor that (kinda) got murdered, Deok Hee just didn't like him, possibly a narcissist but not enough screen time and everything we saw showed he wasn't a bad person.

Son of doctor, did DeokHee kill him? I think there was a line or 2 about that and he was fine, just desperate.

Surgery facilitator is grey. He also died just to protect SeOk.

Lead detective was just self defense 100%, no questions about it imo.

If it was Dexter like, and they were picking their targets because they were trash human beings I would agree with you, but every murder in this show was completely self serving and a few of them weren't even bad people

His whole ending plan didn't make sense really. He wanted to die on her table so she could grow as a surgeon, but come on, if he dies on the table while she's illegally performing the surgery on him, and actually doing it secretly in an accredited hospital the odds of her ever becoming licensed again drop even further than they already were.

The only possible way for her to become a licensed surgeon again was for him to survive and use his power and reputation to say she was the only one who could do the surgery and the only one he trusted to do it. But even that's out since he sabotaged his reputation. His confessing of it all actually made sense to me though, he was as good as dead so might as well take the blame for all the killing to spare her.

Also, I assume the knife is illegal in SK? Because other than that, her killing the detective was 100% self defense, and all evidence would prove that. He T-Boned her in an area where that would be impossible accidentally ffs

The best part of the finale is the fact that the fixer lady saved the pups. I hate it when shows harm dogs

I don't really get what the lady that follows CDH around is. It seems like she's an assistant, but never there during official professional settings and seems more like his personal fixer, but is also a wealthy lady in her own right

That's why I mentioned OTTs, and no I don't watch cable and haven't for 15 years, but it is still a metric they use to determine popularity of a show. Also, this was a weekend show so I don't know why you are comparing it's ratings to a weekday show

Even if that was their plan, which I doubt, the ratings would never greenlight a 2nd season. I think it maxed out at like 2% viewership and it didn't even chart on OTTs

He wasn't hired with the expectation of taking someone's job though. Mi Kyung was training him before the company got bought, that's when they (corporate/ML) decided that he was her "replacement." Before the merger, they saw it as they needed another employee since they are busy a lot. As far as I could tell, he actually has a degree in the field, which is why he wasn't on the chopping block but MK was, since on paper she was just there

I didn't really consider that a break up. They were already broken up, she just finally got her mothers approval to make it public

The Maroo was the potato labs, not her potato. It was the potato she and Baek Ho argued about between the American Marshall and Potato Labs Maroo somewhere near the middle of the drama

Yeah it was completely pointless, probably just to add more "quirkiness" to the character I guess? I think (could be wrong) being vegan is very rare in SK, so I think that was the whole point behind it

Yeah the 3 year thing felt like a lot, especially since not much really has changed. It could have been a 2 month skip and been the exact same, better even really since the boss was acting like he JUST got the position, but apparently has had it for 3 years

He couldn't eat the abalone porridge either, so he won't eat fish. Authentic kimchi is made with anchovies. They make vegan ones, sure, but an elderly couple that isn't vegan definitely would be using anchovies in theirs

My assumptions about the finale were almost perfect, the only thing I got wrong was the way the potato shortage got handled. I never would have expected the newbie to be agricultures golden child lol. It does make you question why he waited so long to ask his parents though lol. He legitimately likes all his colleagues and just watched them work their asses off for days/weeks trying to drum up enough potatoes when he could have solved it with 1 phone call.

Overall, this drama was a pretty decent, easy watch, but nothing great and nothing I would entertain rewatching. I give it a 7, if you could do 1/4s it would be a 7.25 but def not worth going all the way to 7.5 to me
