    @LeftCoastOppa ~ I was reading up on Princess Aurora and it turns out that both goofy lawyer and Chase Lee were in the drama. LOL. Goofy lawyer was the male lead at one point and she divorced him. He also died later in the series. She married Chase Lee who was the second male lead. Maybe writer is taking tips from Princess Aurora. That drama has kill count of 12 characters and that includes a dog.

    bwahaahahah... So her rage and anger at chairman and Hye Ji is even more pointless???? Can we have grandma come back to life as well? hahahhaha.. This is beyond ridiculous now.... I think new writer was merely tasked with it. hahahhaha.... I have always wanted to watch Princess Aurora just to see how bad it was. I would love if this daily surpassed Princess Aurora kill count. Does anyone know how many characters have been written off so far? Then we can all be able to say, "I watch that stupid drama!"

    I get where you are coming from but I have a different perspective. I will keep it short -- generally speaking, am rather detached when it comes to watching cheating in dailies. I know it annoys some viewers based on their personal feels and experience. For me, cheating is either a symptom or the cause of the relationship breakdown. It is far more interesting to watch dramas where cheating is a symptom because you can get insight into how relationships can get beyond repair. Even when cheating is a cause, the dramas can still be fascinating to watch as it is high impact. Here, cheating is one of the most boring arc in this drama and barely creates any noise. She got cheated on but she hardly had any reaction to Ji Chang but she is still upset with Chairman Romeo -- that makes no sense LOL. Rather than the cheating, Hye Won's interference and her nonsensical rage take centre stage and pushing the plot. Pretty much all the characters are placeholders and react in relation to Hye Won's rage and seem to barely have any arc on their own. This is why the writer keeps killing off one character after another and it hardly causes a blip. The only reason I am still watching this mess is to see who else dies and what bizarre twist they will come up with next. kekeke.

    Here are my guesses @LeftCoastOppa: -- Both chairman romeo and Hye Ji will die. She is already suffering from delusions from time to time and they will later say that she too has a clot in her brain like him. He will die first and she will realize that she did really love him as well. Then she will be chapter closed, more likely at the hands of Hye Won or one of her schemes. -- When Hye Ji dies, Hye Won will finally be forced to confront herself in the mirror and she won't like what she sees. She will then say that she has become just like grandma while sitting in prison cell. -- Maybe crazy aunt will raise the kid or he too will die. Since the writers like twists so much, there will be more killing off characters. -- Chase Lee will go back to US and goofy lawyer will lead separate lives. Both will have moved on from their short lived love for this weirdo woman.

    Yes he cheated but this was an unhappy family to begin with. It was not like he destroyed some happy unit. It was broken already. They had been leading separate lives for years. If it wasn't Hye Ji, it would have been someone else he had an affair with. Grandma would have come around to accepting Hye Ji as second wife because she said that she can't command a 60 year old man to do something else. Art MIL would have eventually accepted because this marriage was long dead. She was only holding on for the sake of Ji Chang. So they would have gotten divorced and he would have married Hye Ji. Now whether they would have been happy is a different issue altogether. What messed up the events was Hye Won meddling and instigating everyone and taking it all personal. If she had stayed out of the mess, then things could have gone a different direction. Till date, Hye Won hasn't accepted that her words as a child messed up Hye Ji's direction. Similarly, Hye Won did have a role to play in how things turned out in the family. She was the bad omen as chairman Romeo put it.

    368 I am glad I have drama amnesia where I forgot a lot of the details or even all of the outline of a drama once I finished watching. So if I do re-watch something, it feels fresh because I don't remember the scenes. Randomly re-watching a local drama thanks to youtube. No idea why it is still riveting even though I have seen it before. Guess it is because the leads had great chemistry (they were rumoured to be dating) and the story was so volatile especially in the beginning. Too bad the second half of the daily drama was quite bad but still the first half is rather riveting. Spot on emotions and great dialogues. PS -- does anyone want to join me in watching weekend kdrama beauty and mr romantic. there is hardly any activity on the thread and so it would be nice to have people chatting even if the drama sucks...

    Can one of the aunts die? They add nothing to the story. Chairman romeo was spot on in his assessment. Hye Won likes to talk big but she had the run of the company for 5 years. What did she achieve in that period? So she must not be that great at her job. She just thinks she is better than everyone. Also, he said what I felt from the start -- whatever happened between art MIL was between themselves. They were a couple. Who is Hye Won to poke her nose in? No one really. Her reactions always seem so overboard that she feels like the villain. Chairman Romeo is using Hye Ji as a tool for revenge. He feels Hye Won was the one who brought all the ill luck to the family and so the one who can cleanse her out is Hye Ji. He is going to sit back and watch the mess. As he is dying, he has also letting go of the past and going for someone he has always truly wanted -- regardless of who she is, he loved Hye Ji sincerely and she was the love of his life. So his actions make sense. If he had a good relationship with Hye Won, he may not have chosen that option but he can't stand her at all.

    418 @partyon ~ I watched about 20 minutes of ep 1 and I am feeling sleepy. I don't get the wife. She thinks her hubby is good because he hasn't got the opportunity to cheat yet? So the woman is internally waiting for him to mess up. Also I don't get what kind of hospital is this where there seems to be only doctor. Surely there are other surgeons. Why does she have to rush from home? There is a reason people get off work -- to refresh. Otherwise, how are they supposed to be alert and do long operations. Shaking my head at lakorn logic.

    how many characters has been killed in this drama? at this rate, we should have a poll on how many characters will be left still alive at ending episode.

    @partyon ~ I will try check it out when I have time. Been a while since I saw a good lakorn. Most of the ones I drop within 15 minutes. 438

    I don't think these two are the villains because they are not pretending to be something they are not. Rather Hye Won supersedes them as she acts like she is just and she is the judge. These two are just in her way and so they are her roadblocks.

    @joccu ~ I watched ep 1 of weekend drama beauty and mr. romantic. it actually looks like it will be interesting to watch. check it out. 448

    checked out ep 1 and it was better than I expected. not sure what I thought it would be like but based on the initial synopsis, I didn't think it would be this melodramatic. there is a note of desperation, sadness and a kind of weariness of life peppered throughout...

    I wonder if they will cheat us by having a grey lead. Unless the child dies or she loses custody, she may not go fully villain. They might keep as a bit of a grey character who dabbles with darkness but does not cross over. She has two guys in love with her as well. So who knows if the writer will allow Hye Won to go fully dark... Or they might just continue to pretend that she is good. I was rolling my eyes when she told Chairman Romeo that she only took the CEO position to gain custody and then adds that she will keep her position for the sake of her son. The kid is five and she intends to sit in the chair for the next 20 years to keep the seat warm for him. Pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaassssseeeeeee... Writer-nim, no need to fool the audience. Just say Hye Won is on her way to being full on greedy.

    Either it is the craziness of rage or it is pure deflection. Am leaning towards the latter. As Hye Ji and chairman Romeo have noted -- Hye won acts like she is judge, she is most innocent and she is overconfident in her own beliefs. Hye Won stirred up the bee hive when she obsessed over art MIL's death. Even when Ji Chang asked her to let it go, she wouldn't. When he asked her not to use the recorder, she said she would anyway. So he had to step in and his way of controlling the situation was to off Hye Ji. So in some ways, she instigated Ji Chang to do something, anything -- that was the only she was going to accept him or their marriage or the company being uninvolved. If Hye Won thinks about it, she also had a hand to play in the steps Ji Chang took. She wouldn't let him grieve the way he wanted because she was obsessed over her own rage. She didn't care for his thoughts or opinions and pushed him to take action when he didn't want to. So Hye Ji is an easy target to get angry over. Otherwise, she would have to look in the mirror and see the role she played...
