I literally burst out laughing for a full minute (I had to pause) when the Dr came rushing into the courtroom to clear Kang Yo Han's name. I can't believe they thought it would be that easy to get rid of him when this man has been quietly plotting this for at least a cool decade. I'm here for the all out war between Yo Han and the Foundation. There will be so much scorched earth left behind, I wonder who will survive.
I felt bad for Elijah cos she obviously wants real friends but now she may be going back to believing that everyone wants to use her for one thing or another, and that's sad. Ga On really messed up there, and honestly he should never have taken her out of the house without Yo Han's knowledge.
I also find myself wondering about the chief justice who got Ga On involved in all this. I suspect everyone's motives now cos they keep telling us that people are never purely good so I wonder what revelations will come out about him as well. Plus, what he said to Yo Han in that meeting was almost exactly what the minister said so that got my antenna up.
I don't really like Dai Xiao Yu but I loved every second of her telling off Feng Xi for her stupidity. Imagine nearly ruining their fledgling business because of her rat of a bf. Yikes. She should be thankful that he ended that toxic relationship but I guess she won't appreciate her luck for a while.
I really don't understand why Hye Ryung insists on staying married. She's lost all interest in her cheating husband now and they only make each other miserable. It's such a waste of energy, even if she's doing it to stop him from being with his mistress. I just need her to free herself (and her shitty husband) of this toxic relationship.
It took me a minute to figure out that Pi Young wasn't imagining things this episode, and I couldn't stop laughing when that old witch finally heard that her golden boy was actually cheating. I just want the old woman and the mistress to fight cos that would be so entertaining.
I wasn't surprised at the reveal at the end of so 14 cos Seo Hyun is the family's fixer so of course she knows…
Oh, and can we all agree that that sus nun is lying? Cos the facts are starting to paint the real picture and nothing she claimed to have seen fits the narrative (except dead Ji Yong). How could Hee Soo have been at the top of the stairs AND also knocked out on the floor? Unless like someone said, Seo Hyun was the one on the floor and she lied at the hospital (but the show already revealed that Hee Soo was passed out next to Ji Yong)! So many possibilities!
The police, when Kwak Su-Chang died: Must've been the windThe police, when Han Ji Yong died: OMG There's a brutal…
They are so dedicated to finding HJY's killer when they had to be dragged kicking and screaming to even investigate KSC's case. This is why I'm rooting for whoever killed Ji Yong to get away. F the police.
I wasn't surprised at the reveal at the end of so 14 cos Seo Hyun is the family's fixer so of course she knows what went down. Plus the whole time I kept saying, did they forget Hee Soo is an actress??????? I'm very excited to see how this gets wrapped up cos those women.... Oh THOSE WOMEN. I LOVE THEM. I wonder if the detective will actually find out what really happened and if anyone will have to pay the price for killing Ji Yong.
On Ji Yong though, I know he was a total piece of garbage but he was a product of his environment. His parents treated him as less than human so of course he turned into a monster. By the time Hee Soo came into the picture, he was damaged beyond repair. Truly the only good thing he did was making it so that she could be Ha Joon's mother.
Can't believe when this show started I was barely paying attention and now I'm sad that it's almost over. Do we think Ji Yong tried to kill Hee Soo and ended up dead or was it all part of the plan? I'm not sold on the amnesia cos it's way too convenient and she can't really spin her reaction to Ha Joon almost getting hit by that truck (as an aside, does that kid have a death wish or what????). Also, I cannot put into words how glad I was that I didn't have to sit through more of the grandson and the maid in the last 2 episodes. They were exactly where they should be, in the background as part of the scenery.
This was a joy to watch. I especially loved the relationships between all the lead characters. They were all very smart and capable which I enjoyed. Also really liked the mystery and the political intrigue. Glad I watched it and totally recommend.
My favourite thing is Kang Han Na's character constantly misusing phrases and not knowing what words mean lol. I'm looking forward to her being chaotic in school!
I think this drama is really underrated. It's such a lovely story and I loved all of it, even the silly tropes. My favourite things were the best friends and the Jiang Xiao Ning's smile. Totally recommend.
It's so creepy how Ji Yong keeps saying Hee Soo shouldn't be troubled because she's carrying his child and not because he loves her or cares about her at all.
After ep 6 I would love for Hee Soo and Seo Hyun to leave this family altogether. Seo Hyun can reunite with her girlfriend and Hee Soo can go raise her children far away from this dysfunctional lot. I know, I know, it's unrealistic but I can dream, right?
I think Hee Soo knew the truth even if she was in denial and I'm glad Seo Hyun told her eventually. Also, why does it feel like that reverend sister is manipulating all of them?
Baek Eun Hye is so good. I can't believe that she got me right in the feels playing a character with no lines most of the time. The fact that I can see the pain of Ji Ah's mother's ghost just from her face is amazing. The scenes with Ji Ah and her mother in episode 12 are so heartwrenching. BEH and Jang Na Ra were amazing.
Does hoo joon like in hyung? I saw in the preview that maybe he was jealous that JJ gave GY flowers ?
In Hyung is his ex girlfriend so there are some feelings there, and I think he just opposes everything JJ does cos JJ is always trying to defeat him at any cost so he's not happy to see him hanging around GY
I may not like the Female Lead, but she really needs a manager. The director of the show is an a**h*** and she needs to be protected. They presented him as quirky but he knew exactly what would happen when he edited the show for a sensational response without any care for what could happen to Geun Young, and all he cares about is capitalising on her humiliation and pain. I think ep 7 was the first time I didn't absolutely hate her and I hope I can eventually like her.
I don't like that we're getting so much backstory and development for Hoo Joon while Geun Young is still just the same after 7 episodes. I was hoping we could get more about her rather than the surface level nonsense we're being fed. When she said she started this so she had to see it through to the end in ep7, I found myself asking, what end? What exactly is her goal now? Is she just going to sit in the apartment and write about how Hoo Joon might be gay or mean or whatever? Is she attempting to do any investigating? Is she learning anything at all from this experience? She doesn't appear to be gaining anything other than a bathtub to sleep in (which, again, WHY can't she get paid and move to her own place?????) and she's certainly not shown any kind of growth. I hoped we'd get a glimmer when Geun Young and Hoo Joon were talking about abandonment but that hope was swiftly murdered.
Also, I really need JJ to get a life. Torturing his girlfriend and himself over Hoo Joon who is literally just trying to live his life is an immensely stupid way to spend their time and I wish In Hyung would get some resolve and make a decision about her life that isn't based on these men. I have to agree with a comment I read that said the women are very poorly presented in the show cos we're getting to the halfway mark and still, no growth, no insight, no anything about the female leads. It's very frustrating,
This was actually a lovely assortment of stories. If I had to rank from favourite to least favourite, I'd say 29 (for the romance), 42 (for the heartbreaking realism), and a split between 35 & 23 (for the absurdity).
I found each story quite interesting in its own way and the thing I liked least was probably Jun Ji Sung but that's probably cos she was an unlikeable character. Absolutely recommend all the stories.
I felt bad for Elijah cos she obviously wants real friends but now she may be going back to believing that everyone wants to use her for one thing or another, and that's sad. Ga On really messed up there, and honestly he should never have taken her out of the house without Yo Han's knowledge.

I look forward to next week with excitement!
