Just finished watching. I personally have no issue with the culprit’s stupid motive. I liked how the show’s focus was on showcasing the more psychological aspects of the two women — Yun Su’s growth from a naive woman to bravely proving her own innocence, and the completion of Mo Eun’s revenge arc (along with the humanity that still exists within her).
I thought the show was well paced and very bingeable! Surprised I ended up tearing up at episode 12
that's her greed that she can't suppress .. she'll be never satisfied.. and of coz seeing that way, she'll never…
Yeah agree. After experiencing her terrible father, I think she doesn’t want to deal with a terrible MIL who ALSO makes dumb financial decisions and can’t be shaken off due to blood relations. Girl went through enough the first time around
Ughhh I have such mixed feelings about Jun Seo. On one hand, he really shouldn’t be butting into Ah Jin’s life without her consent. On the other hand, Ah Jin is reaping what she sowed by making him promise to be next to her forever, as a kid
This show is so hard to watch with no one to root for but the acting and directing are sooooo good
While I have no problem with Ah Jin’s downfall, I hope everyone who hurt Ah Jin will also receive their appropriate karma, especially Jun Seo’s mom
His mom was likely complicit in the murder of her mom, actually tried to sell her off for money, cheated on his dad, and tries to use her illegitimate son to get money from his grandfather. She’s just as bad as Ah Jin IMO
Hopefully when Jun Seo reveals everything to “save” her, he includes why she did what she did, so society can also reflect on its shortcomings as well (and everyone who harmed her gets equally exposed), or else it’ll read to me as more of a personal takedown for not returning his affections
It’s a lot to ask for a fictional kdrama, but the drama has just been that good so far hah
And the tension got me replaying some scenes over and over again hehe
But I should’ve commented more on the characters vs actors, since it’s the character of Mo Eun that I found more compelling. That’s on me

Maybe I’ll pick it back up after I see how it ends (only if I like the ending)
I’m sure there are better ways to save her than to make her public enemy #1 😡

I don’t think she wanted a round 2 of that, and I personally couldn’t come up with a solution that could put her dad away for life.
Maybe that’s why she wanted to be a law student in the first place, to figure out out to legally get rid of her dad.
1/ in high school, when the female bully was eavesdropping on Ah Jin and 2ML conversation
2/ in ep 5, where he eavesdrops on Le Na’s phone call with the reporting, with Lena looking at the cop
It feels, to me, like he enjoys having control over her
