The Penthouse: War in Life Episode 15

This episode is a chain of absurd situations and choices

SPOILERS AHEAD!

Starting with Soo Ryun showing her emotions and calling Logan right after Dan Tae told her that he's looking for the one responsible for the mannequin incident. It was obvious that he's gonna do it so the whole situation looks like a joke.

Next we have Yoon Hee comming to Seo Jin's house asking her to give her some time. I think the writer is trying to convince us that Yoon Hee is completely stupid? After all their history she should know that it's just a waste of time. Also dragging Ro Na to teachers office to make a scene about her daughter maybe being forced is unnecessary and illogical as well. It seems like Yoon Hee is just doing stupid things without thinking and no plan. She seems to have learned anything from the past and it's a weird writer's decision asit's hard for the viewers to symphatize with such character.

Another example of a ridiculous situation is Mr Go being so easy to follow to the hotel where he's staying and then Dan Tae just letting him go, knowing he's got Soo Min's phone.

Then yet again we see Yoon Hee and Seo Jin having a meal together which seems to play into Yoon Hee's favour in the end but that's just by luck. What was the original Yoon Hee's plan behind it? What was she trying to achieve knowing Seo Jin's father so far?

That's why i rate this episode so low. There's just too many situations that were odd or at least they were presented in a way that breaks the immersion.
