I think they're both main characters, Bang Tae-Seop is the protagonist (there's a difference between a protagonist and a main character, after all.)

I know nothing about either of them, but I totally agree. It's ridiculous, you don't know either of these women!

Good watch to me. If you're into mysteries, political dramas, and noir thrillers with a more mature vibe (and not focused on romance), this might be perfect for you.

I watched this movie YEARS AGO when I first became a Yellowkie, and to this day, I still have no idea what it was actually about. 😂

She was a villain in First Lady, check it out. 😁

She was very good in Penthouse and First Lady (to me.) I mostly blame the scripts she's been getting

Well babes you laughed at it, so it must be entertaining to you? 💀

Okay, the better term should be "basic" or black & white female characters. Same shit, different name

All About Eve was no way a recent k-drama, lol, but I don't know... I'm getting the vibes that Jung-Won seems to be in love with Sang-Ah, her competing with Sang-Ah seems too... basic? Don't know if that makes sense. This drama's been subverting quite a few cliches so it'd be refreshing to see something else.

I hope it's Sang-Ah that stabbed Kwang-Jae. Based on the promotions I've seen, there's gonna be some massive twists with her character. A rose with thorns? A woman desperate to get back on top and stay on top? The ending that was hinted at with Ju Ji-Hoon and Ha Ji-Won? She's giving me villainess/femme fatale vibes...

It's funny cuz it's true, slayyy 😍

Nah I touch plenty of grass (well, concrete since I live in a city.) At least I don't spend all my time on some random website fighting with people and being negative 24/7 😭

All you have to do is say "I only like one-dimensional female characters" and go lmfaoooo

A lot of y'all here have never watched shows/movies with villain protagonists and it kinda shows... 😭

Not me getting Swim 😭 let me go listen to the album for real lol

All you do is be negative on here and I've seen you in multiple comments doing the same. 👀 Take a chill pill and touch grass, darling...

No one in this drama is really a good person, they're all various shades of grey/evil or whatever. Nonetheless CJY is doing great!

I would love it, but also... Sang-Ah and Ji-Soo's relationship BREAKS me 😭 idk who to ship more... the bisexual dilemma of Sang-Ah, oh my!

Yeah, people are going NUTS here for some reason 😭 no clue what's going on. Even the Reddit threads and tweets are more chill than this comment section...

Low-key hope so because Tae-Seop does seem like he loves Sang-Ah (in a possessive way?) Lol

Too damn bad, shove it up your ass then.

Just phonetics and vibes lmfaooooo

I liked the Chung-Ah/opera rivalry parallel too, but even that wore out for me after a while because I couldn't stand Eun-Byul. I was way more invested in the parents/adults. HATED the love triangle/teen romances too! Seok-Hoon (Seok-Kyung's brother) wasn't interesting enough for me and was a major douchebag, Seok-Kyung was just irritating and I never understood the hype with her lol. I was also into watching Hera Palace residents and their messiness. And, um, unpopular opinion, buuuut- I wasn't a Su-Ryeon fan 👀 nor did I like her and Logan Lee together, it felt weird seeing her get with her daughter's adoptive/step-brother. UGH! (I'm still a Yoon-Hee fan like 5 years later lmaooo)

Return is like the legal/crime thriller equivalent to Penthouse. Just incredible. What are your thoughts on the characters so far?
