Glad JW isn't actually Jeongin's son because things would have gotten extremely weird lol. I will just chalk him…
Just rewatched episode 1 and I'm changing my prediction to the female scriptwriter... I think she killed Jeongin. Also realized that there are several characters that are shown that haven't been introduced yet... such as the aforementioned female scriptwriter (who was apparently fired for "embezzlement") and there's a guy played by the same actor who played Sangchul in The Third Marriage who gave Jeongin the threatening note (and has a spider tattoo on his hand)
With the Olympic hiatus coming up, it'll be interesting to see where we leave off on Friday's episode. I hope…
Glad JW isn't actually Jeongin's son because things would have gotten extremely weird lol. I will just chalk him having the same mole as the original WJ as pure coincidence... for now.
Unsurprisingly, (going off of the ~makjang drama playbook~) Juryun and Jinwoo are getting married. This will 100% be a recipe for disaster because it's so obvious that Jinwoo doesn't like her! In fact, Juryun's "love" for him feels more like an infatuation. When the two visited Taechang to talk marriage and Jinwoo responded with silence in response to 'do you want to marry Juryun?' that said it all
(My opinion of course but I don't see what either Seolah or Juryun see in him. Juryun getting in the bed with him and the subsequent drama from that gave me secondhand embarrassment. I don't like Jinwoo much but that's weirdo behavior)
so we get several more scenes of Seolah being sad over this... I can't wait until we move past this point in the story. Like helloooo director Na is right there!
Speaking of director Na, I can't be the only person who thought that he was Sunae's older son (and she changed his name after the divorce from Taechang...) but it's been revealed that he died from being sick. So that's Sunae's MO for revenge... I'm more interested in that side of the story right now. Although I find it interesting that Taechang was able to recognize Sunae but Jeongin wasn't (unless I'm misremembering). One thing is for sure, the min family is pretty messy. Their inevitable downfall will be very interesting
Looks like for today's (7/24) episode, Seulki is going to pick up on the fact that the TV shopping incident was staged. Jinwoo seems to have finally remembered Seolah... at the worst possible time. (due to the marriage with Juryun) I am so curious how the relationships change from now to the night of Jeongin's murder. (I'll have to rewatch ep 1) Idk if it's too early to make predictions but I think Taechang is behind it... Seolah will probably be framed for it though.
Side note; I know I'm not the only person who fast forwards through the American aunt's scenes 😂
Y'all know that meme where it's the lady "thinking" and it shows hardcore mathematical equations?
That's me (I got caught up with this week's episodes)... It seems like Jinho is getting closer to Seolah... But at the same time, he is still an amnesiac... which makes me wonder WHAT exactly happens to move him into enemy territory (see: episode 1) ... things are coming together... but I know I can't be the only one who is wondering how we go from where we are now, to the events that lead to Jeongin getting murdered!
it's so boring lmaoo. Maybe because it's still fairly new but I'm surprised it's rated higher than Sooji & Woori
I was watching suji and woori but I stopped around the reveal that SY was living with her daughter the whole time. I felt the story around the main 4 characters was starting to drag. As unpopular as this opinion is, Nayoung was the only character I found somewhat interesting (and I was starting to find Suji's family obnoxious). Has it picked up since then?
I'm not sure if I want Jinho and Seolah to get back together... ngl I gagged when she ran in the script reading screaming "Saranghae! Saranghae!" 💀 ... idk if it's just me but I can't "buy" the fact that they were about to get married let alone a loving couple. I definitely prefer her scenes with Hyunwoo
next episode's preview shows Seolah trying to refresh jinho's memories... but idk lol I'm hoping that he gets his memories back but chooses NOT to go back to his old life... I want him to fully commit to the dark side so Seolah can accept they'll never get back together so she can stop looking so teary eyed all the time 💀
Can't have a makjang without a hit and run so I'm not surprised to see that in the preview. I figured that Jeongin was going to hit someone ... just not Jinho. I don't think he's gonna die tho.. I think he's going to get amensia and then end up as JWJ... just a theory.
Also in this episode we meet the 2ML, his brother and his mom, the original wife of Taechang... who seemingly had an affair with Jeongin. This is the kind of makjang messiness that I live for!
Got caught up with the first weeks episodes. I'm so glad that the flashbacks didn't take a lot of episodes. I just got done watching meant to be and there were like 20 episodes of flashbacks lol
Now for the story, looks like jinho is going to cheat on seola with juryun ... and kyungsook eventually falls in love with him (??) a mother and daughter being romantic rivals is wild but then again, the Korean title for this drama is SCANDAL so at least they got that part right 😂
Looking forward to seeing it all come together!
