  1. Sorry, after 60+ episodes, you can't make Goofy ML a bad guy simply by playing the "jealous" card. No, not even in a daily. Goofy ML has been the steadfast, level headed, non-emotional in critical situations, foundation of team Good, for more than half of the drama. We're now supposed to believe that he conspired with Chairman Romeo & Ji Eun's mom to have Chad Oppa arrested in the states and at the same time, he secretly records Chairman Romeo confessing the details of a crime (Chad Oppa's fathers suicide) that he then turns over to Hye Won - First, if Hye Won tries to use the recording then Chairman Romeo will know it was Goofy ML that betrayed him. Which leads to ... - Second, if Goofy thinks its off into the sunset with Hye Won, Chairman Romeo at the very least would let Hye Won know Chad Oppa was framed in part by Goofy, thus denying him her trust/love which is what he is supposedly after. Goofy would know all this! ... yet thats what we got in todays episode In other news ... Did you all see that forearm Yong Ki threw at Crazy Aunt followed by that quick sidestep outta danger? Kids got mad skills ... and perhaps a future in Hockey
  2. So with our would-be heroes about to become sedan flatbread, Ms Yang creates a diversion, saves the wonder twins, and then its time for the bad guys - she pops that top button ... oh its about to get real ... and then the cops show up early??? I've been cheated!
  3. All that build up and no pay off Show of hands, who else wanted to see Ms Yang go off on the gangsters?
  4. What a difference a single episode can make ... try these on for size - Chairman Romeo drove Chad Oppa's dad to suicide - looks like that was the basis (at least initially) for Chad Oppa to help Hye Won fight him - This was revealed to Chairman Romeo by Goofy ML ... it seems they're now working together ... just why is TBD - Art MIL's sister has this weird bonding going on with Hye Ji. Apparently, she too had a contentious relationship with her sister. Is she plotting something, or will she try to bring the warring sisters back together? Her character just got alot more interesting. - Chairman Romeo's aide Mr Kim does indeed have feelings for Crazy Aunt - Bonus plot point - Mr Kim is Lawyer Min Jun's uncle! In a FFWD and you'll ( 🫵) miss it moment, Hye Won was accused of alcohol and drug use immediately after JC's death. Grandma seized the kid. However, she couldn't trust the company to Chairman Romeo (embezzlement/slush fund) or Crazy Aunt (... well crazy ) so she made a deal with Hye Won that she could rejoin the family and company in a leadership role. So long as the company prospered she could live in the mansion and raise her son, but if the company stock fell more than 40%, Chairman Romeo got full custody ... and Hye Won agreed in writing In Princess Aurora, they did kill the dog ...
  5. I really hope I'm reading the preview wrong, because episode 6 is way too early for some noble idiocy If Im Sol talks herself out of being with him after finally hearing his confession ...
  6. - Hye Won figured out what Chad Oppa was up to, and they're secret snugglebunnies again - Looks like Crazy Aunt & Chairman Romeo's aide Mr Kim were an item in the past, future TBD - Hye Ji figured out the video they've been watching was on a loop, she knows they know about her secret camera now - Goofy ML resigned from Chad Oppa's company and he's none too happy. He still thinks its a take over. Per preview ... - Hye Ji finds Chairman Romeo's drugs - Hye Ji approaches odd man out Goofy ML, and it looks like she's going to use Chad Oppa's own trick against him, and get Goofy ML to try and take Chad Oppa down. He still hasn't got the memo, on the ruse takeover & the snugglebunnies. I really hope these clearly desperate writers don't try to turn him into an actual bad guy. - Hye Ji is going to work at YJ Group
  7. I'm starting to think the same thing - Sun Jae didn't commit suicide, he was pushed. As we've been shown already with the picture, Im Sol is slowly changing the past, I can see her doing just what she said in the latest episode, she'll get to him first back in the future and save him from whoever it was that attacked him on the balcony. I'm really enjoying this drama
  8. Sane Aunt is fine - I said "past tense" because in todays episode she was reflecting on how initially she liked Chad Oppa but just like Hye Won, she presently thinks he is a player for the plan Hye Won found in the safe.
  9. While I've found JH annoying at times, he didn't deserve what happened to him. I hope they save him
  10. So with subs, it looks like Chad Oppa is indeed still a good guy, and all is going per plan. He will take Hye Won's near term hatred to save her and the company in the long term. - the kid loves him - sane aunt liked him (past tense) - Art MIL's twin seems enamored with him too Sorry Goofy ML, looks like you're odd man out - go tell Min Jun you're sorry, you'll actually be better off anyway ... but wait! Whats this in the preview??? - Art MIL's twin lifts Chads phone and it looks like Hye Won pieces together what he's done, and they will be snugglebunny lovers again by episodes end. Ah yes, you just gotta love the twists cuz there's not much else
  11. … and in another twist it appears that Chad Oppa knew Hye Ji planted the camera in his apartment and it seems now that the plan may be a part of an elaborate trap to find out exactly who is who in the YJ group fight. still need subs, but it looks like Chad Oppa May still be a good guy
  12. Because he had a plan to chop up the company that he hid from Hye Won. Thats the irony in this reveal - Hye Ji told Hye Won where to find the report. Hye Ji wanted to drive a wedge between her and Chad Oppa, and it may have just saved the company. Nevermind the fact that Hye Ji actually did Hye Won a favor, as she would most certainly break things off with Chad Oppa if the company was scrapped. While Hye Ji's motives were in the wrong, she actually helped her sister.
  13. Just gotta say, the little actress playing An-Na is killing it. She's been great throughout, but the last 2 episodes she's really shined. ... oh and if any of you want to see Se-Ra in high school, check out Lovely Runner. She's got a small roll, but every time she pops up, it completely takes me out of the drama ... she's evil in that drama too ... shocker
  14. Exactly - she walks in the room, JC grabs her, she screams, he throws her to the floor, she screams where is Yi Chul, JC taunts her that he will hear her scream, he then smashes her in the head with a vase, ties her up, tells her that she doesn't belong in this world and he will kill her. He then takes her phone, saying he'll return it to her so the police will find her suicide note. He sits down to write the suicide note on her phone, and she wakes up, she cuts herself loose, they fight, and she pushes him off the balcony in self defense. JC may have misled Chairman Romeo about his intent, but he clearly went there to kill her.
  15. You're right! ... with subs, it turns out Art MIL had a twin sister. A twin sister that we've never seen before ... that never showed up to her sisters death ... that was never mentioned once til today ... Killing is overkill? Ji Chang definitely planned to kill her, he said so himself as she lay there unconscious, and he took her phone to write a note for detectives to find to try and cover it up as a suicide. As for the rest ... - Chad Oppa obviously has done background research as he has Chairman Romeo's brain tumor diagnosis, and uses it to get Hye Won's son back. - Looks like Chad Oppa had/has plans to split YJ group in half, that he's not sharing with Hye Won. He mentions his father who it seems might also prove problematic for some reason. - Per conversation with her brother, Crazy Aunt may be wavering on her support of Hye Won in favor of her brothers $$$. I hope its all part of a ruse - I don't want Crazy Aunt on team bad.
  16. Indeed! Now its just a matter of degree's - how much did Hye Won know and when? If she knew from the beginning then she, and Art MIL are responsible for Ji Changs death. He only went mad because he believed Hye Ji killed his mother. Even if Hye Won was clueless til this episode, Art MIL is still guilty. And you can already smell the hypocrisy, as you know Hye Won will never hold her accountable. ... gotta post this again
  17. ... and on that note ( while waiting on subs ) No one died - the all in blacks were attending Art MIL's 6th death anniversary BUT.... Art MIL is still alive, and apparently Hye Won knew it!
  18. With what seems like almost daily, out-of-the-blue, plot twists, it makes me wonder if the current writer actually wanted this assignment, or was merely tasked with it. I can see the producers ... its your show now, change the story, and kill off whoever you want ... Princess Aurora is still the standard. The new writer ...
  19. So since we're beyond the halfway point, how do you guys see this ending? - After Hye Ji's attack by the WTOD I thought we were slowly getting some begrudging sister bonding but that went nowhere, primarily due to Hye Wons vitriol. I really don't get that - sure be suspicious of Hye Ji at first for her antics, but that was a FIVE YEAR time jump, and the drama showed us nothing other than Hye Ji living a modest life trying to gain alittle of her memory back. When she finally does, shes genuinely revolted by her own actions, only to be pushed back into that corner by Hye Won's complete unwillingness to even try to forgive her ... again 5 uneventful years later. - Chairman Romeo I just don't get. At the start of the drama he was painted as a love struck fairly useless executive. Grandma ranting constantly about both him and Crazy Aunt. This is clearly a new-writer villain replacement, I'm guessing to replace a previous revenge driven version of Ji Chang. Nevermind the whole "1 year to live" story arc makes no sense, the way its been shoe-horned into the base story. If he is supposed to be the driving force keeping Hye Won in check to keep her son, that all evaporates when he's gone in a year. - Golddigger Couple. Not sure if they are a victim of the writer change or not, but they have clearly been tempered. They now seem sincerely interested in seeing the war between the sisters end, although there's really not much they have the power to stop at this point - Sane Aunt & San Deul. These two seem like superfluous characters. They have scenes to remind us they exist, but they have no real underlying sub-plot relevance. For instance, when was the last time Hye Won saw her brother? - Lawyer Min Jun. I think this character was supposed to be an old love interest for Goofy ML with ties to his tragic past, that was supposed to be a foil for Hye Won to flesh out her actual feelings for Goofy, but like others above, I think she got lost in the writers switch. So ... at this point my predictions are ( all subject to future twists ... like "dead" Art MIL ) - Chairman Romeo continues as a villain, and succumbs to his illness before ever going back to jail - Hye Won & Chad Oppa save YJ group, but go their separate ways after ... friends, nothing more. - Goofy ML is saved in a critical time of need by Min Jun, and they're off to the races - he stays friends with both Hye Won & Chad Oppa - Hye Ji will never make peace with Hye Won. Call it at best a truce, and she disappears ... her last scene will be smiling her impish smile as she opens the slush fund safety deposit box after finally remembering where she put the golf bag. - Hye Won leaves YJ group and goes back to work full time in an art gallery - Crazy Aunt takes over YJ group ... because of course she does Just my guess ... but with these writers, I'm probably nowhere close
  20. And the twists just keep on coming ... - Somebody tell me I'm seeing things ... thats "dead" Art MIL in the preview strangling Hye Ji - Just when I thought Chad Oppa & Goofy were gonna be besties, per preview he's hiding something from Hye Won - Unless the secret above is bad, I'm starting to worry for our Goofy ML, if he and Chad Oppa do become besties, I think he loses in the battle for Hye Won ( ... or is that actually a win ) either way, he's been the steadiest/most faithful character in this mess of a drama so hope, the there/not there lawyer gf wanna-be is able to get through to him - I don't think Chairman Romeo is in love with Hye Ji, I just think he's using her. - Since Crazy Aunt is dressed in black in the preview, I think its the sane aunt who has died ... I just hope it wasn't in a fight with Hye Ji. - With the never ending twists in this drama, now I'm curious what the original story arc was supposed to be It might just be me, but I've never really felt the connection between Hye Won and her son. Yes, they have all the obligatory sweet scenes, but the son feels more like a character place holder required for her to have something to fight over with others - I'm just not feeling it. The actress had more mother/son chemistry with Uni Oppas son in Miss Montecristo. He was in this latest episode - saved an employee from a loan shark, so it looks like hes got a new gf Supposed to be 104 episodes, so we're on the downhill run.
  21. Finished episodes 1-2 just in time for episode 3 to drop - loving it so far
  22. Okay, so lets unpack this ... - Kyung-Ja ... ( Hye Ji's accomplice & the actual murderer of druggie artist ) ... somehow was caught by Chinese gangsters, who had her in a deep freeze container on a ship, and had plans to cut her up to sell her organs. - Somehow ... ( insert BIG exasperated sigh here ) ... Hye Won found out about all this, and staged a rescue ... on a ship ... against Chinese gangsters ... and got no press ... Sorry to be nit-picky ... but with what army??? - Kyung-Ja has seen the light. She is now a steadfast ally of Hye Won for saving her life, and has agreed that at a time of Hye Won's choosing, she will willingly turn herself in to the police, and receive justice for killing the artist. - Now, Hye Won finds the voice recorder that JC hid, and instead of going directly to the police, she concocts this attack scheme with Kyung-Ja to pretend to have the recorder stolen again. While I fully understand that daily dramas require some suspension of disbelief, this drama just went to a whole other level. First - the voice recorder is the only physical evidence linking Hye Ji & Kyung-Ja to druggie artists murder - Kyung-Ja DEFINITELY knows that, yet Hye Won trusts/asks this known murderer to just stage an attack on her - and NOT TAKE THE RECORDER for herself??? Sorry, writer-nim that is beyond unbelievably stupid. Nevermind, that if Hye Won is so dead set on sending her sister to prison, why the deception at all? Take it to the police right then and be done with it. If its Hye Ji's lack of memories thats the problem fine, but with the police holding the evidence, its a done deal when her memories return. Second - the whole story arc above tears a glaring hole in Hye Won as a character - Not just for the stupidity involved in the decision making, but the glaring inequities in her treatment of Kyung-Ja vs Hye Ji. She saved Kyung-Ja's life ( again, a murderer ), and has made an ally of her. She also saved Hye Ji's life after the WTOD attack yet even after her sister awakes in an amnesia-tic state she makes no attempt to help reform her. Granted Hye Ji did alot more than just conspire to murder the druggie artist but still, even armed with the knowledge that her childhood attempt to protect her little sister backfired, and knowing now what Hye Ji suffered through, she gets no second chance at trust, yet a known murderer with her memories fully intact does? Make it make sense. I've been enjoying this drama because they've gone in unexpected directions with entertaining twists ... but this one wasn't a "twist" it is a clean break. P.S. while the bromance between Goofy ML and Chad Oppa is funny to watch, one has to be a villain cuz Chairman Romeo & not-all-there Hye Ji can't carry the villain roll to the end.
  23. I want the hero of the 1 Lakorn that I've watched to remain "true blue" in my eyes
