I love how towards the end of EP 16, we saw that the ML was actually useful to the company. Many of the employees made him to look like he held his position because he was the step son to the father. But he is actually competent and some even said he seemed to have been doing all the work for them.

You just might be right.

His father just never shows his emotions. Remember when Kang Joo got drunk after finding out his father had a bastard son, his father told him a man should not show his emotions. He is not expressive in nature and I think you already saw that.
On the other hand, the son knows he is not the biological son, so he always feel the need to get approval from him. Its like he thinks if he falls short, his father won't hesitate to drop him. So in a way, that's his greatest insecurity.

She did but then after reading most of the comments from the trailer, most people are there because of DEX.

I guess he's a star now.

Let me update it for you:

Enjoy!!!

I agree crime has no gender. If you do something bad, you're a BAD person, that's all. Though I do agree she indeed do bad, I would also want her to get a chance. We all deserve a second chance, hopefully she learnt from that mistake and be a better person in future.

Ooow, okay.

Ooh I agree. I just shared my perspective, I didn't feel opposed at all.

Yeah, to put it simply is that there was no closure. I didn't want to dwell on that coz its just like how I said, it didn't feel empty, which I like coz we can agree. All these instances you mentioned, their storylines were left dangling in the air such that it is left for the viewer to speculate or interpret for themselves what happened next. Hence, that's why you're debating that its vaguely shown.

I agree with your argument. I don't think its that far from what I think. But here's my take: The only reason the show didn't show any progression in those stories I mentioned as 'plot holes' to put it simply is to show that we should just focus on the things that matter. More than half of the storyline in the show was for the protagonist to find his biological dad. We didn't get a closure on that simply because it didn't matter. What mattered was creating memories with people we got along the way and the family and bonds we forged. So in the end we see the ML spent his last days with people that CHOOSE TO STAY. The FL since childhood had always felt empty because she had never had a mother. It significantly influenced her character and her dreams. Becoming a mother was her biggest achievement in life.
But we see when the opportunity is presented for her to finally meet her mother, she forgoes that opportunity. Why? Coz it didn't matter anymore. These people never chose to be in your life. Hence, we see in the dinner/bar where the two women + ML's friend were more of her family as they were in her corner and were willing to take her side more than how her mother ever will.
I just think the show itself stayed true to reality. Hence, why I felt it isn't empty by the nature that there are many things in life that are unanswered. OR maybe we're asking the wrong question in life.
Basically, we begin the story with the ML setting a journey to look for his roots but he ends up right where he was. Instead of looking for the bonds that never came to be, we should take care of what we have (or given).

Its one of the mysteries we'll never get to know like also if Jae Mi's mother ever sought out to know her? Who is the biological dad for Hae Jo?? Did his estranged father find out that he was dying from cancer? These are some plot holes and honestly the show doesn't feel empty without them.

Is it like a lesbian thing?

Well, when I say convenience in most cases it usually refers to money. You're just marrying for other reasons except love. That's a marriage of convenience. Ooh yeah all those obstacles will be there no doubt. But that won't stop people who believe to be in love from getting together. They may have an affair until they're caught. Like you have said it won't be easy for them to end up together due to his wife, and I agree. That's why I said its not guaranteed but hey we'll witness a love of the century before it burns out (Jiyeon happens).

Coz you're a cry baby. This discussion ended ages ago but no you have to moan about it. Here's some tissue for your tears.

I don't know so much but having watched lots of weekend of dramas, its not a matter of if the romance will happen, that is given. Of course, I am expecting them to be entangled with each other as its obvious the Chairman isn't with his wife due to love but convenience. Now, the question will be whether they will end up together. At least we will get to enjoy their romance and if they get to become good friends at the end, it will be bitter sweet.

Woo Do Hwan what an actor you are? I think its the way he acts with the eyes that makes him a great actor. He can make you fall in love with any fictional character he portrays. Lee Yoo Mi was the best surprise. I could actually feel her sadness and happiness through the screen. When she smiles you think 'what a lovely smile'. The kind of smile you would want to protect. What a lovely cast and a fantastic script. This drama makes to the third Kdrama of all times in my list.

Top 1 and Top 2?? My list is 1. Flower of Evil 2. Hometown Cha Cha 2. Mr Plankton
I can't really decide which is third between the two. Special mentions Money Flower, and Will Love in Spring.

She is good. I hope she soars high in future.

Yeah, honestly that has never made sense to me. Yes time may have passed but that doesn't erase the fact you killed someone and their loved ones have to live with that pain all their lives. Sad law in my opinion.

Yeah, everything is so lovely. So at first I was a bit confused of the backlash. Me and you found it enjoyable, so we're just in our worlds and its fine.

See him in my liberations notes. He does a 180 in his acting. Also, nothing to do with his acting ability, its literally the character he's supposed to portray. The synopsis literally says "but his one flaw is that he doesn't have emotional communication with the patients." He is mostly type casted as eccentric characters, which he pulls off magnificently by the way. You may not like him and its fine. But he has mostly chosen lucrative projects which are well known even though he doesn't exactly fit the ideal male beauty standards.
