They gave Soo-A two moms. Which, now that I think about it...  seems common in daily dramas.

WHAT? They killed off the Third Male Lead and didn't give him a chance to speak to Jackie?

So Episode 102 ...

 

So the writers offed CEO Na ... we'll come back to that

 

So after waiting 102 episodes we finally got some actual "revenge-daily" worth revenge.  JT strolling into KY's office with her lawyer and reclaiming her investment with that snarky smile and her sassy ..."Hey Babe" 

 

 

More revenge than we've seen from JK thus far ... give that snarky sassy JT a revenge drama of her own

 

 

So KY showed up at Puppy Oppa's again, with his Mom and the police in tow ... they took Soo-A this time ... the police actually acted like police this time too

 

Speaking of police, why are they so incompetent in dailies??? JK&Puppy Oppa submit actual video evidence and its dismissed out right as "deepfake" while KY submits an actual deepfake and its considered legit.  Add to it the nonsensical press - they're sleuths one moment and lemmings the next. - the writing for this daily is atrocious x 10

 

 

No Uncle + Oh Na Hee this episode

 

 

The jailed Assemblyman keeps asking Top Knot Ahjumma for a divorce and she keeps rejecting him ... she still -BY FAR - is the best written/acted character in this drama.

 

 

So back to CEO Na ... after being in a coma for 20 episodes, 1 of 2 things has happened ... 1) the writers pretty much forgot about the character and with only 3 episodes left decided to just off him -OR- 2) we have yet another faked death, CEO Na has woken up ( POWER TO THE KDRAMA IV ) and working with either JK or Puppy Oppa is planning for the final sneak attack on KY

 

I give it 49% vs 51% 

 

 

And a pretty crap cliffhanger when the preview shows JT clearly didn't shoot him ... what a wasted opportunity ... we should've gotten another "hey babe/snarky smile" moment then ...

 

 

 

... ah, what could've been

 

[Ameera Ali]

Did she stop JK to shoot him , so he can visit them in jail 

[ The blind leading the blind]

 

[Ameera Ali]

At this rate he will run to the border 

 

 Round one : 

 

 

 

 

[Ameera Ali]

Only in kdrama 

… In real life ,by now she would have been in in heaven 

Oops , hold up can I get a re-do I wasn’t thinking

The kdrama IV did not work @LeftCoastOppa. That fall was from 10th floor? 
 

 

Shoot JT shoot, you can do it, KY or JK? Who cares? , I want to see the ending….

I am so confused. Why are they all in jail? What's happening here?

the logic of the drama flew out many many episodes ago (which is why I dropped it). am very sure there is no real answer to why they are in jail. just some weird illogical stuff. 

am still trying to figure out how @LeftCoastOppa hung on by himself to watch this drama when all of us dropped out.

Because I refused to believe that they would keep Bit Na unfailingly devoted to Puppy Oppa for 80 episodes and just end it with him being her brother (which they have) - her unrequited love for him was more romantically entertaining than the nothing-burger between our supposed leads.

 

After that, the drama was already well into a death spiral - logic/story wise - and the one thing that made the slow motion train wreck bearable was the Uncle + Oh Na Hee flicker of light.

 

2 episodes left, but no ending no matter how good will save this daily from its fate ... this - BY FAR - is the worst daily I've watched ( that I actually completed that is )

 

 

So todays episode ...

 

The only interesting thing ... Uncle provided Oh Na Hee heartfelt consolation ... and called her pretty!

Nothing tops Woman In A Veil for me. Or Man In A Veil... there are few dailies I've disliked aside from those two. (I didn't watch Love Twist or A Place In The Sun- started the latter though.) Wouldn't touch them with a 10-meter pole.  I couldn't even handle this one and dropped it early. Stayed here to lightly moderate and watch everyone else's reactions/recaps. And ratings.

- Never watched Woman In A Veil

 

- Never watched Man In A Veil

 

... and my world has been made brighter thereby

 

I did like A Place In The Sun - it wasn't great. The little boy was not good, and the friend/savior turned spurned wife, turned psycho, turned mentally recovered restaurant worker was a bit hard to swallow ... otherwise I enjoyed watching it.
