I thought it may have been that he overheard them fighting on ep1 or 2, when they're on different floors in the house, and he's just worried about them but doesn't know specifically about DK

Oh! So it wasn't the patient's camera, it was the son that shot the video?? I was wondering how the patient was at the party and came to have that evidence. I thought I'd seen the patient recording it in a previous episode, though, not the son. Will have to check again, I'm intrigued. Thanks!

There's not a single moral, remorseful character in this drama. They're all abhorrent, selfish, depraved, and I love every single one of them!

I'm confused. It does seem like the son has known for a while, but when did he find out? Was it at his dad's birthday party? Did he see his dad and DK together there?

Apparently only if there's evidence. I thought JH was setting a trap for her, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case and we just weren't shown that yet. I'm thinking YR will be outside of the hotel and we'll see her next Friday at the start of episode 5 lol. SW was making a face as she left the hotel, wasn't she?

Honestly it's bad on so many levels, the casting choices were not even that relevant to what made this season pretty unwatchable.

Not the queen, the princess did tho.

Ye Hongyu and Chen Pipi are not related, but they both grew up together in the same abbey.

Ye Hongyu is revealed later on to have been a victim of sexual assault by the hierarch Xiong Chumo from Xiling.

Ke Haoran is definitely dead, but even the way he dies is a bit ambiguous. He dared to defy Haotian and Haotian struck him dead, but it's not really explained how.

Are you reading the human translation or the machine translation? Even the human one can be a bit hard to follow on occasion, i think it's more that the novel meanders a lot to bump up the character count, but yeah the machine translation is nearly unreadable.

I feel like I deserve a medal after watching this drama. The unintentional comedy was funnier than the intentional kind. The goofiness made the over acting, terrible script, editing, and direction watchable for the most part. My friends and I loved to hate it. Watched it for Park Hae Jin, got enough skinship to make it satisfying, but was left wanting a bed scene. I'll never forgive Choi Chang and his cat-loving meter maid gf.

I'm hoping there are more flashbacks where it's shown how he comes to develop those feelings for her, because to the extent that even his sister calls this mysterious Irene as his girlfriend, he's been carrying that torch deeply and obviously for a while. But so far we're in the dark and it's almost the halfway point. At this rate, I'm watching just to look at Seo Kang Joon's face on my TV :)

Yep. I didn't watch the other Reply dramas but I understand the point was the husband hunt. They tried to make that pivotal to 1988 but this drama is so, so much more than who's the husband, that those present day scenes I feel actually detract from the drama. But they're easy to ignore so, no harm no foul. They'd make the episodes shorter, too, if they get skipped ha!

The present day scenes don't add anything to the plot. If I rewatch this drama, I'm skipping all future scenes except the one where they talk about something that may or may not have happened (not to spoil it), because it was funny. Still didn't add to the plot.

It's mentioned in the scene where they explain that ritual that the mom did it, and it's called a mistake, but it's not clear how or why. I may be mistaken but I didn't think so. The ritual failed to remove the spirit from her, but yes it did split it and linked the two. Though beyond that scene where she's writhing on the ground when the mom is trying to kill Jong Hyun, and their similar stigmata, it's not apparent that the link is very meaningful. Only meaningful in the way how one takes over and wreaks havoc, and the other host can control it. But this is also not explained. Why is So Jin aware of her spirit but Jong Hyun was completely taken over by it, to the point that when it leaves his body he doesn't even realize where he is? So many questions lol.

Yeah they didn't explain this in the flashbacks, bummer. I also missed how she came to absorb the spirit from the tree. Bummer x2. Overall liked the end but I wish the mechanic had been more apparent. She went from trying the procedure on Jin Hee to all of a sudden everyone's alive and she's passed out. Hmm okay?

After ep 11, now i'm a little bit confused. it seems the ritual shown at first was to remove the evil spirit from Sojin and to implant it in Jonghyun, but it failed because the girl escaped from the cupboard. How did the evil spirit get into her to begin with? It seems it was implanted by mistake by the mom and she was trying to fix her mistake? But why/how did this mistake occcur to begin with?

I've not seen LKS in a drama but I imagine it must be something the Prince of Asia scenes in the Vietnam episodes of Running Man in 2013, and you just created this unerasable image in my head that will have me laughing for the rest of IC - thank you!! :'D

Hahaha I meant she wasn't on the bus. Either way, I guess if it was the cleaning lady's daughter's phone, and the hs girl did find that phone and had it with her in the suv, they did have a number for it so they could've traced that way. That makes sense to me. But I had to do some mental gymnastics to get there.. I'm sure the subs are just lacking and this is much easier to follow in Korean lol. And I still don't know who was that other girl or if it was the same girl how did she get a different phone when she got on the bus. That's the limit of my mental gymnastics

That's true. His feelings for Sooah never changed but also never evolved/matured from the time he confessed on ep1. And he's been rich for a while, what else would they have waited for to get together? Agreed that she was never a serious contender. Maybe he kept her in his back pocket for convenience - if he had a girl he liked, he could easily turn down others and focus on his goal? Who knows..

Him asking her to stop, regardless of how he "really" felt, should've put an end to her pursuit. While dramas will drama, it doesn't make it less cringey.

Toxic femininity? How would this play out in the reverse? It's manipulative and just plain harassment. It's had me cringing the whole time.
