exactly this^ And it's not even well written mafia melodrama, hence it becomes boring. The plot is so ridiculous I fail to feel any emotions towards it except from frustration.

so what you are saying, just because you have specific association to the word, is should be changed in the description?

Literally it makes zero sense. Sure, I can believe one or two people would rather pretend the problem does not exist, than calling the police. But everyone? Not ONE person was like - we need to all sit down together and find a way out of it? Not one person was like - we will worry about Tae Shik's honor AFTER the dude gets locked up and everyone is relatively safe? I cannot with the sudden lack of brain cells.

Anything and everything that happened to everyone who knew the dad woke up from coma - I do not feel bad about. You literally asked for it. You KNEW he is dangerous, you KNEW he is even capable of beating people up, killing them, that he runs a fucking mafia... and you were just chilling doing nothing? Hope for what? That he will just leave?

Both doc and Gyeo Re knew he woke up, why their conversation were still cryptic? Why not tell Gyeo Re - his personality did not change, he is pretending. His injuries were not severe enough for the personality change. He is lying. Let's figure out how to deal with it now.

No one doing anything about this makes zero sense. Even the mob makes little sense. So the current head knew Seok Joon is not cut for this line of work and is a "softie" like Gyeo Re and Joon Kyung, and yet he kept him close and asked him to do some serious job? And then he is surprised he finally broke down? Even tho he knew he can;t handle all this in long term and he just pretends? LoGiC.

Also, on what planet the new dude that took over the mafia would be like - a yeah the old boss showed up, time to give up all my power 🤡 He would assassinate the old boss the same day he got the call🤣

The whole mob part of the show truly brings nothing to the show. All the messages could be told without it having so much focus. It could all be just a background/back story... I'm just so annoyed about it all. Every time anything related to it happens, it's so ridiculous I get annoyed, and it does not matter how amazing the next scene might be, I still have the bad taste left from the previous one.

The level of disappointment I feel about the last 4-6 episode is ridiculous. It went from touching slice of life to soft makjang with no brain. More about it under spoiler.

You won't miss much if you skip it 😂😂

Realistically speaking, this is not a mystery in any rom-com. It does not matter whom she meet first, and if she is already in love with one or the other - everyone always knows who the main lead is 🤣

She was never even near 44 🤣 Most of these actresses are around 46 to 55kg at least. It was always funny to see them talk about their weight and if by chance they got their weight check on a show and the real one was revealed (like the female special of Real Man). Since the face does not have any big muscles to fill the space of the fat, like body parts do, the weight loss is more prominent there.

She was slim in the past, never that skinny. It does make the difference. I'm sure she had botox/filler, young actresses have them too, everyone is industry does. But I cannot say with 100% certainty she had a plastic surgery.

Also, I am watching her interviews for Love in Contract and her face is rather expressive. she goes natural full smile and all. Sure she has no wrinkles... that's the fillers, not plastic surgery.

Anyway, what I mean is, the change is not drastic enough that it cannot be explained by her getting older, getting fillers and loosing weight. Is there a chance she had plastic surgery? Sure. Can you be 100% sure? No.

For me, it could be explained by weight loss. She was never as skinny as she is in this show.
She always had more fat on her face, rounder cheeks and face. But now with this extreme weight loss (and she is REALLY SKINNY), her face got more slim, cheeks more shallow.

This is such a typical Min Young drama and I'm eating it up 🤣
I'm so curious about Jung Ji Ho tho. That's some good set up for the mystery.
As long as the reasoning by the end will be solid.

Love me Min Young playing a 30+ years old woman who apparently puts make p daily, but cannot put a lipstick on 🙃

Sang Eun and Gwang Nam? Iconic duo ⭐

for the killing - I don't think they can use the "pill" as the side effects excuse since the effects they names would not explain his killing. It makes sense with the friend - she started to hallucinate when her husband was with her, it was not planned etc. But with the nasty dude? It was planned. No one just has a rope with them in any given occasion (especially when they are wearing suit), he had no issue going to his place at all.

They did not show the killer during the killing, but would reveal it literally few seconds later? Makes no sense story telling wise. For me, it makes more sense it's someone from law firm.

I LOVE Lee Kyu Hyung so much 😭😍😭😍😭😍 When he mad, he hot.
Thoughts after 2 episodes - Love it.

The chemistry in May It Please the Court was so good and intense and overall attention gripping. Jung Ryeo Won and Lee Kyu Hyung work so well on screen together!

2nd half of episode 2 was awesome. The last few scenes? fuck sake yes! We all know what they revealed by the end of the episode cannot be true, but DAMN I WISH IT WAS! How fucking exciting this show would be if it was! 😍 Still got set up, even if we know it's a misdirect.

I need episode 3 - I think that's a good indication of how much I liked the first 2.
Also, what makes me extremely happy is the fact it's just 12 episode. There is a hope it will be as tight and thrilling till the end with no senseless bullshit fillers.

Anyway, for the opening week episodes - Kate's Approved 👍🏻

oh yeah, for her I would agree she is willfully ignorant. She knows "something is up", but decides to avoid problems and not find out what.

Wait... you mean the mental coach Park Seung Ha when you talk about FL? Coz I was talking about Cha Ga Eul. Cha Ga Eul has literally no way of knowing about the drugs since she was not in contact with the swimmer and there are no drugs issues with skaters hahaha

I would not call her ignorant. She is young and emotionally closed, but not ignorant. Compared to him from the past, she is more mature and handles the situation better than he did in the past.

He stands out, but on the shallow terms - catching the attention. But I feel like most of the depth and emotional impact is from her. I guess it depends on what someone is focusing on while watching. For me, she is far more interesting than he is, even if he is "fun to watch".

Rather than her voice, for me it's the overall delivery of her lines. I don't find high pitch voices annoying, but I do find how Yu Deng Deng speak as annoying. Only when she goes high pitch AND dynamic AND energetic - it's just too much for me. When her character gets excited I want to turn down the volume a bit.

Spoiler free thoughts after 4 episodes - 𝗖𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝘆𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰𝘀, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻?

First of all - I hate Park Seung Ha more than Goo Tae Man. I take an evil asshole over an incompetent person who thinks they are good. How awful of a psychiatrist and coach she is - amazing. The amount of unethical behavior - amazing. How blind she is to how awful she acts - amazing.
Currently favorite character is a side one - Go Young To. Seems the most chill and mature - I vibe with it. Overall, I like "the team" a lot. Hope we will get more scenes with them scheming and planning. The con artists vibes they give are amazing.

So now, to the actually important business: plot and main characters.

Big yes to more or less everything. Big picture wise, I think they are doing great job balancing the over the top behavior of the ML, with more serious and dramatic scenes and developments. He knows when to turn the 🤡 off. Not to mention, the 🤡 side of him makes perfect sense - he is not just an eccentric for no reason.

Then we have Cha Ga Eul. Not gonna lie, I started the show for Lee Yoo Mi. Been a fan since 365: Repeat the Year and her role of Kim Se Rin (she was my favorite). Damn, the girl DELIVERS! She is, no doubt, the star of the show. The character is complex both internally and externally (in terms of the situation she is in). I think that's the overall positive aspect of the drama - it's rich in different contexts and factors that influence the characters, and the solution is not easy to find, since no one solution can solve all the problems.

I also have to say, Goo Tae Man is not easy to figure out from the 4 episodes. I legit more often than not have no idea what his plans and motivations are 🤣 I want him to have like a whole ass redemption arc, but I don't think it's possible. But when he is not abusive, he is fun 🤡

Random thought for the end - another not romance driven show, that makes me ship characters hard 🙃
Also, Lee Moo Gyeol the MVP of the newest ep.

To end on a good quote from episode 4:
𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵. 𝘖𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵, 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘪𝘵'𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘶𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦.

for me, she was more interested in him, but not in a romantic way. More like person tp person - she is a curious one after all. What I'm saying - I saw curiosity and not love from her.

Her love makes sense on paper with all the getting to know each other, him protecting her etc. But it was not translated well on screen - I did not see her growing her feelings, but her not having them, and the next time they met, her loving him...

the great moments were really great. So many amazing quotes.
but the overall plot... could have been improved...

The poster is a disservice tbh. Because the quality of the show is rather good for short bl, while the poster is... well... mediocre at best.

I have to say, while some scenes were questionable and made me laugh (law student taking a child he does not know to sleep in his room? He should know how risky and "illegal" it would look for other people lol), I still had a great time. I appreciate how they showed both sides of the "opening sequence".
