Hierarchy Episode 2

(Spoilers)

Oh! ok wait so I think what happened was Jae-i got pregnant by her boyfriend Ri-an,, and she was friends with Kang Ha's brother (the previous exchange student that "got killed"), so Jae-i confided in her friend, the brother, but for some reason he had a recording device either knowingly or unknowingly gathering blackmail material on her for the person/people who are now using it to threaten her...That's why she went to america to see her birth mother, and to get rid of the pregnancy in secret, and she probably doesn't want to tell Ri-an about it because of guilt/trauma/something. BUT (i haven't finished the episode yet) I think she knows or has a weird feeling that Kang Ha is her old friend's brother, and that's why she's so weird around him. I think it's more likely that she doesn't know, but maybe she feels there's something off about him and will soon figure it out.Anyway, this series is enjoyable and intriguing enough. although there were more instances of that cringey/silly, unrealistic writing in this episode, like Ri-an's friend lining up the scholarship students in the middle of class to yell at them lol? and no one - apart from Kang Ha - thinks it's a bit ridiculous lmao. And the two random students at the start of the episode saying like "oh wow this commoner thinks he can talk to us" like be fr haha I know in the context of these drama shows or even webtoons it's all exaggerated, but both times I was kind of taken out of the world of the show for a second and laughed like - these mfers are high schoolers, calm down lil bro ToT -- honestly if i went to this school i'd have the exact same reactions that kang ha has lol. as soon as a mf gets in my face im ijbolling so hard TTTbut, at the same time, that's what makes these types of dramas fun, so :pI'm not criticizing, just pointing out that it's a little over the top in these shows sometimes hahaside note, I love the side character girlies - He-ra and the other two. oh, and the other friend Woojin, he seems nice (he's bouta catch his teacher a case, but-- regardless.. 〒▽〒)
----------------------------------------
Ooooh~ Now that I've finished the episode, I'm even more intrigued to see what happens next. she figured it out~
and I'm living for Sinister Kang Ha.. Him being all smiles and "puppy-like" but then to break the facade and he feels downright intimidating and dangerous? yeah, absolutely. And he's high-key way more intimidating than Ri-an or any of these "elites" lmao. Don't mess with a guy that has Nothing To Lose

Alas the plot thickens. We see more romance…

Alas the plot thickens. We see more romance now as Kang Ha and Jae-i grow closer but damn, their chemistry is almost non-existent. In fact, their scenes together are rather awkward and whether this is a result of Jae-i being “stifled” from her emotions or the mismatch of leads is up for debate.More intriguing however, are the supporting characters. Chan-min is an illusive character and his nickname and the way he can slip in and out of situations (not to mention knowing the cover-up about In-han) makes him a prime candidate for knowing who caused the hit and run. Is he the blackmailer?We still don’t know the full extent of this, and to be fair it may even be completely unconnected to the whole affair with In-han. We’ll have to wait and see on that front! However, the drama is just starting to heat up and it’s anyone’s guess quite where this one will go next!
