Wow, so many pro-marriage with that asshat SML commenters here. 🤦‍♂️
I disagree, personally, that he's the guy that would have made FL happy. He's unreliable, shady, doesn't care about her needs. And she herself doesn't even know what being happy means - conforming to society norms, making her parents happy? But they're not the ones that will have to live with that guy. Those are not good enough reasons, if it can be helped. The one and only good reason in the end is that the person makes you happy. Don't care about society norms, too many people around get married and divorced a few years later, because they're too immature and/or simply not compatible. That's the real society norm nowadays. And women often end up with kids they must raise on their own. But hey, they can at least claim that they were married, right?
But I suppose FL here is so deep in her midlife crisis and insecure about herself, she desperately wants to marry any man that'd propose to her. 🙄

Yea, she could have been a more exciting to watch FL. And she doesn't give any fcks to what everybody thinks of her. She also looks like a more complicated character than FL, not everything is on the surface with her.

While FL simply reached her midlife crisis and just wants to conform to society norms. Marrying an asshat untrustworthy guy just because he noticed and dated her at one point? And then returned after ditching her several years ago like nothing happened? She has no self respect and with everyone being so pushy she clearly didn't think this through. Good thing that guy turned out dirty, or it would have ended in divorce a year later anyway🤣
ML said it right - it's not good being so easy/desperate. And he's not easy because he understands that it's a serious step, not something you need to cross of your list of things to do in life.
I get that FL is feeling lonely and undesired, but she simply seems to have bad taste in men, running after one fishy guy after another. Or is it her desperation that attracts only the fishy guys? Not sure which one is worse - the chef dude or her ex. I bet there were others like them.

Is it weird that I like bitchy Kang Chae Ri character more than dumbass boring FL?

Time to consider it - she is going to in episode 4. Ffff 🤣🤮

He may have been calling someone else, the bald brother, for example.

Yea, dude ditched her to pursue his career dreams and now returns after several years and pushes her to marry him like it's not a big deal. His easy "sorry" and "I missed you" are not cutting it. It was very uncomfortable to watch how he was coming on FL. Even she looked uncomfortable. This guy clearly has no respect for FL's opinions or consent, just like those years ago. I hope FL has some respect in herself and won't be a dumbass to start all over again with him. 🤢

Same goes for that blind date girl that tries to nab ML with her agressive "innocent friendship". Yea, right. I bet she's already planning how to name their kids. 🙄

So now we know that bald restaurant owner is ML's brother. His wife was murdered quite possibly by Gido who also loved her. Also, Gido's father and ML's father are connected somehow in the past and they have the same patriot watch. Basically, two brothers seek revenge on Gido's family for the crimes against their own family.

ML works to unmake them by finding evidence of their corruption, even though the show very bluntly shows him as prime suspect. He's not the actual killer, but he may know who is, because he's always so unfazed about hearing the news about the next victim, or when confronted about it by the police.
But the bald brother is a disturbed person who is still not over the death of his wife and attemps suicide on regular basis. He murders victims through amnesiac proxy.

This show basically reenacts the plot from the movie Memento - look it up if you haven't seen it. I think Lee Dongpil=amnesiac=killer. Something happened to him and he suffers from frequent "resets" of his short term memory, but he still remembers his dead wife, just like the protagonist in Memento. Every time the bald brother tells him that what happened to him is the fault of Lee Dongpil, whom he must find and "do whatever he wants" aka. kill him. He gives him instructions where to find "Lee Dongpil" and sends him on his way - the amnesiac goes and kills the next victim, thinking it's "Lee Dongpil", only to forget everything the next day.

Ok, this is becoming clearer with each episode. And I already suspected this.
Theory below:

Third wheelers are so pushy here, it's very annoying to watch. Even the leads look uncomfortable. I have more fun watching FL bickering with her rival at work than witnessing this cringey puke inducing love square.
Also, called it that ML has unrequited feelings for FL. Can't beat the classic. And though ridiculous premise is very similar, I enjoy Law Cafe more than this.

To be fair, that monologue In Hye gives at the end is not something she actually speaks to her sisters, it's her thoughts and wishes. Couldn't even utter a single grateful word to them throughout the whole show 🙄.
And yea, In Kyung taking that money would be extra hypocritical from her part (but she has plans now and wouldn't want to live off her bf). And the show conveniently ends on them seeing receiving it. What will they do with it later? Fcking spend it of course! 🤣

Agreed, basically it was all ML's doing who just used Hyo Rin's account. In Hye had nothing to do with it. Not to mention that the epiphany In Joo had during the trial and the whole final message of this show about money being the root of evil basically was cancelled out by giving them all that villains dirty money in the end. The show's ending was hypocritical.

Writing of this drama is frustratingly uneven 🤦‍♂️ . Episode 11 was great, but now we're back to boring filler 🥱. I think 16 episodes is too much for it.

Yea, can't help but draw similarities with Crazy Love, but leads here are probably gonna play older characters, cuz, hotdamn, FL actres is 49! 😆.
Looks like private instructors make good money in SK since they're becoming popular in dramas. I was getting tired of lawyers/prosecutors/judges as leads all the time, so why not.

Her mom was working there as a nurse. She’s also one of the main leads. She most likely is saved for last for the hero to save, it’s a classical move.

It’s all clear, but you missed the point of my post.

There was a continuation of the umbrella scene - just watch post preview extra scene. They are always there after each episode.

And that scene at the end of episode 4 had me question FL - if you're so not interested in ML why'd you come out to spy on him? 😆

Today's episode had a lot of fluffy cheese and hot stuff, and that treasure hunt was entertaining. However, I think that dad had too much faith in his daughter's capacity to solve his poem riddles. She would have ended up penniless if it weren't for the Law Cafe team 😂.

P.S. That street that goes downhill at the end of the episode looks just like the one where FL from Crazy Love lived.
P.P.S. The bad guy is a sad walking cliche, can't even take him seriously with how bad he is.

Yea, it's a serial murder drama. The killer so far:
-100% is the one who killed and mutilated 3 innocent women who were related to the bad guys;
-95% is the one who killed the original convict and his family of wife and child;
-99% is the one who killed the taxi driver juror/bad guy;
-100% attempted to murder the crippled juror/Number 7 (we'll see if he survives in the next episode)

Personally I think he did all that by himself except maybe murder of the original convict's family - there was something sus about it, though he did threaten to kill them if the convict spills the beans.
And ffs, there are still 8 (!) more episodes to go and plenty of jurors to go through, not to mention the bad guys. But already it starts to feel annoying and repetitive with how dumb, sus and reactive everyone is. Everybody chases the wrong guy that they think is the culprit and just react to the killer's next move. I bet he sits with a popcorn somewhere, laughing his ass off watching all these clowns scrambling to figure who he is.

This show is making me sick. Everyone is dumb and sus and susing everyone. The killer is a coward who, instead of taking revenge on real bad guys who did him wrong, takes his frustrations on weak innocent victims who are related to them. And those innocent victims of course absolutely coincidentally are all women and one was even a child. And absolutely coincidentally he has the need to mutilate them in most disturbing ways. He just seeks revenge, right? It's not like he's a digusting psycho and takes pleasure in meticulous disfiguring of their faces. Yea, right 🙄
This show asks ages old rhethorical question - why men are such crazy monsters sometimes? Abuse, assault, rape, serial murder - you'd very rarely hear that the perp was a woman, most often it's the other way around.

It was crazy makjang and it's not a compliment.
