I thought we were taking 2 steps forward but after Ep10 it feels like we're still in the same spot 😫😫

After watching Ep10, this is how I feel too. And I also agree with Hime. The more I watch, the more it doesn't make sense of Eun Hyuk or even the chairwoman. And if you haven't watched Ep10, please only continue reading after you've watched it.

The 3rd person the chairwoman met with Ju Hyun Su had a similar body build and was even wearing the same clothes as Eun Hyuk. It was brought up again about Eun Hyuk knowing how to scuba dive.

Honestly, everyone we've suspected just kinda falls short in terms of motive. Then again, everyone's suspicious but it also doesn't make sense. I feel like barely moved forward with Ep10.

Is this an adapted story? When it comes to costume dramas, I'm always afraid it'll end up BE. 😫😫

As I watch this, I feel manipulated by Sang Ah too... 😂😂😂 Also need Lee Yang Mi to suffer more.

Hmm...idk, it still doesn't make sense how the gallery owner could've gotten the insurance for FL's exes while they were aware of it and actually agreed to it? It's possible maybe if she threatened them or something, I guess. But I do also feel that all these deaths aren't by one single person. It could be different people responsible for different deaths, each caused by their own agenda. Because so far it doesn't feel like any others are colluding behind FL's back. The only possible person who'd collude with someone is FL with one of the culprit, but I don't think FL is responsible for any of the deaths since she's got nothing to gain.

I'm even going as far as to suspect that the wife could've hidden something important about Woo Seok's sister's case, causing the leader to miss that crucial information or evidence.

At first I kept suspecting if the leader was sketchy, like he took a bribe and swept crucial info under the rug to let the criminal go. But after 9 episodes, I feel that he's not even competent enough to be sketchy 😂 sorry. They just made him so bad at his job.

I feel that the plot with the chairwoman and Ju Hyun Su, the guy Woo Seok's sister dated, is rather straightforward since they were likely driven by greed and power. Those two are definitely guilty.

But this whole murder and insurance sequence circling Seol Ah is too complicated, it's hard to even tell who started it. My brain is exhausted trying to figure it out now 😂😂 But yea, those two siblings and the friend are suspicious. I hope we'll get a bit more answers in Ep10 too!

Also, anything starting to suspect Sang Mi, the other auctioneer that the boss was trying to promote after kicking out Seol Ah? I maybe acting overly suspicious here but she seems.... too nice. Lol. It's hard to trust anyone who's that nice in dramas like these.

This!! It's what's confusing me too. Even the killer of Su Ho. How did the killer even know how to go to that house? This means they must've been tracking Seol Ah the whole time, whether with or without Seol Ah's knowledge.

And what bugged me before was, right after Woo Seok told Seol Ah that the OnWorld guy regained consciousness, how did Su Ho know and send the black cap guy to kill him at the hospital? We also saw Seol Ah making a call after Woo Seok left. So either 1) Seol Ah was actually behind it, or 2) The culprit found out through the bugging device.

I'm even starting to wonder if Seol Ah was actually colluding with Su Ho the whole time 😂😂

They're just soooo slow at picking up on things. Woo Seok almost had to spoon-feed them every crucial evidence and key information. Like??? They always seemed so busy, but it feels like they were just busy sitting on their hands. Because for every important clue they've found, Woo Seok had already found at least 5 more. Not to mention, the team lead's wife also seems sketchy trying to snoop around. I have a feeling she could have something to do with Woo Seok's sister's case as well.

Even when it was revealed that Jun Beom was Su Ho, he still felt like a red herring. Now that the best friend is still lingering around Seol Ah and someone else actually killed Jun Beom, it's more likely that the friend is the killer. That would also explain the sister's strange behavior, because she looked like she was trying to protect someone by keeping quiet.

But what confuses me is that, if the black cap guy was someone who worked for Su Ho, and he'd been stalking her like crazy, was Su Ho behind the murder of the previous men around Seol Ah, or he's just trying to be a copycat and take out Woo Seok and pin it on the real culprit?

But then there's also a plot hole, or maybe it isn't. If Su Ho had dug so deep into Seol Ah's life and the people around her including her exes, would he not have looked into her friends, including Eun Hyuk, and got suspicious of him? Or was it just coz he'd never been seen romantically close to Seol Ah, so he never paid attention to Eun Hyuk?

Right now, it kinda feels like Eun Hyuk was responsible for the psychiatrist, the restaurant owner, and Su Ho's death, while Su Ho only planned a hit on Woo Seok. Meaning Su Ho tried to get to Woo Seok before Eun Hyuk did. This still doesn't explain the insurance though. And it still doesn't make sense to me if Seol Ah was actually the mastermind because she isn't getting anything out of these murders. But honestly at this point, if it really turned out to be Seol Ah, it would be so anticlimactic for me 😂😂😂

One thing I gotta complain about this drama, is that the cops are infuriating (and a joke). The writer dumbed them down so much, made them so incompetent, that Woo Seok is the actual one doing the cops' job. From finding out about the identities, to getting evidence, to scanning the murder scene again and figuring out there's a third person. And what have the cops done?? All focused on forcing Seol Ah to confess as if the case had been handed to them on a silver platter.

And the team lead who was in charge of Woo Seok's sister's case? He was probably so bad at his job that he missed something and caused the culprit to go free, yet he's still so full of himself and holds a grudge against Woo Seok because he refuses to admit that Woo Seok was on to something.

Omgggg episode 8 was insane!!!! This show honestly gets better by the episode. I hope it finishes off strong.

Just starting Ep8 now, and I'm suddenly wondering.... (I know this could be a stretch coz they probably ran DNA tests to confirm the identity of the body) But after hearing what the OnWorld guy say that the Paek Jun Beom he knew wouldn't have done something like that, I thought, what if the Paek Jun Beom we're seeing isn't the real Paek Jun Beom? What if he and Lee Su Ho switched vests or name tags, and the one who died was the real Paek Jun Beom, and Lee Su Ho did surgery to restructure his disfigured face and came back looking like Paek Jun Beom to get revenge????

Because it didn't make sense if it was just a friend going to that kind of length to avenge his late friend. And the theory about Jun Beom being Su Ho would make sense now if they both switched identities during the accident.

Okay, I may be completely off here 😂😂 I should watch the rest of the episode before getting too excited. Lolol

Finally watched Ep4 and I can't wait for the next!! Aaahhh who's gonna win this game??

Ep3 was wild. I'm taking everything that youtuber says with a pinch of salt. But what got me curious was Bang Tae Seop seemed to have been aware of Sang Ah's involvement in the murder the whole time, which I did not expect, but not surprised finding out. But did Sang Ah really kill Oh? Now it's just all everyone's own side of the story. Nothing is exactly the truth. Can't wait for Ep4.

Came across my own review and got reminded of how frustrating this show was and couldn't believe I actually gave it a 7, I had to change my rating to a 6. 😂😂😂😂😂

Haha I totally get you. I feel the same way too whenever I watch dramas that end up like this.

And yea, Yu and Xiu definitely had the realest progression, and that's what made them my fave at the end. Haha. Coming in second for me, would be Da Sen and Mingming. I'm glad they had a happy ending, especially one that felt real. And necessarily realistic, but real. Because we actually got to see Da Sen's character development and how he fought and struggled and still chose her in the end.

On the other hand, even though Xiao Xi and Bei kinda had an ambiguous happy ending, their relationship just felt too fictional and disconnected to the audience sometimes. But of course, that's just my personal feeling about them.

I actually thought Gong and Yu He were quite cute together as well, but their relationship got a little unhealthy so I'm glad they parted ways. But I'm happy they're still on good terms.

I'd like to know which couple was your favorite!

In Ep7, I really loved that when FL asked her mom what kind of guy she should date, her mom fired back, "Am I the one dating him?" 👏👏👏 Her mom is right, if she can't even decide for herself, don't bother dating the guy at all. FL should be making that decision herself. Her mom shouldn't have to decide for her. To be honest, FL asking that question was the final nail in the coffin for me to drop this. Although I get that not everyone is used to making decisions themselves, I almost felt my eye twitching when FL asked her mother that. The ending of Ep7 also made it more predictable than keeping me intrigued.

Like I mentioned after last week's episodes, the fun in this drama at first was the impression that both male leads had sort of an equal chance. It takes the unconventional road of FL *actually* feeling torn between both guys. But SML's love has been feeling so one-sided even from the start. They still had some strong chemistry going before and things between ML and FL weren't certain yet at the time, so the story still felt kinda interesting. But now.... it's obviously just the same old pattern again. Unless there's a major plot twist by Ep12 where FL chooses 2ML, then I'll come back to eat my words. 😂😂

Yea, I agree that Lee Yang Mi is just wicked. People like the main leads are just trying to survive. Sure, sometimes they're for selfish reasons and greed, but Lee Yang Mi is just pure evil.
