Why not say you're from parallel universe while you're at it... Liberal Arts? Just say your parents are korean…
Yep any person with a right mind would say that their parent are Korean so they know Korean as well although coming from a different country. She said Liberal Arts just so the King could smile in front of the prime minister. Now that shows how poor the script is.
This is what I think about Episode 6. The Good , the bad and the OK.
The Good: 1. The little scene between Detective Gang Shin Jae and Lieutenant Jung Tae Eul where he buys the ice cream for her and she shares it with him and Jang Michael suspects something fishy about them. 2. The flashback moment where the Jung Tae Eul protects Gang Shin Jae from other spoilt students and in the end gives him the sandals to wear. 3. Tae Eul hears “northern K stadium” mentioned in the recording which points that there is some link between 2 parallel world. 4. The scar appearing in Ya Rim face which shows that he is also facing the side effect but it seems that it doesn’t hurt him and the fact that he is now in Jung Tae Eul home town.
The Bad: 1. The war was pretty useless and does not seem to help progress the story in any way. I think the only reason for it was to show how brave and powerful the King is (and maybe also to make Jung Tae Eul worry about him in the other world) because up until now it looked like only the Prime Minister did all the important stuff where as the King was pretty useless and acted like a kid. Also Too much time wasted for this scene which in the end lead up to nothing new. 2. The helicopter landing makes no sense. Captain Jo Young was following Tae Eul so Yi Gon could have asked him to bring her to Busan. Yi Gon only brought more trouble for nothing. A King should be smart and careful. 3. Personal Opinion: I find the scenes between Yi Gon (The King) and Lieutenant Jung Tae Eul pretty cringe worthy. The dialogues are poor (although the delivery is ok) and the love feel so forced. The King creeps into the room of Tae Eul from the back door with no respect to privacy, kisses her and make excuses at various times to touch and hold her which seems super creepy. I don’t think these kind of qualities is what a King should have. More creepy is that she has no problem with it. As a viewer I don’t at all feel the chemistry between them. When did she ever start liking him in the first place? 4. Too much screen time for Jung Tae Eul and Yi Gon but not enough time for other characters to develop and we are already 6 episode in which is almost half of the series.
The Ok: 1. The King (Yi Gon) knows that the body found in the sea was not the actual body of Yi Rim and he knows why but doesn’t tell Yi Jong In. As a viewer we already knew this so no new thing for us.
I think Min Hyun Seo pushed Park In Gyu from the rooftop. When she saw Ji Sun Woo having a meeting with Yeo Byung…
Now that I think of this again I think the real murderer is Ji Sun Woo.
1. You don't see her while "Park In Gyu" was falling down. You only see her after certain duration (Enough time to push "Park In Gyu" and come down).
2. When "Ji Sun Woo" meets "Min Hyun Seo", "Min Hyun Seo" accuses "Lee Tae Oh" for the murder but "Ji Sun Woo" was quick to reply that "But you didn't see yourself". I have never remembered "Ji Sun Woo" to be so defending towards her ex-husband. Also she was too calm and composed.
3. During the drink gathering of "Sul Myung Sook", "Gi Ye Rim" and "Ji Sun Woo", "Sul Myung Sook" tells "Ji Sun Woo" to be careful as people suspect her of the murder. But "Ji Sun Woo" reaction to that was really suspicious. She just replied "Really?" and turns her head around and sips the wine like it's no big deal.
4. When "Lee Joon Young (The Son)" asked his mother ("Ji Sun Woo") about whether she killed the man. She gives a fake nervous laugh and says "Of course not".
5. While at the dinner (meeting) with the Chairman (Yeo Byung Gyu) even "Kim Yoon Gi" [Neuropsychiatrist] was surprised to hear "Ji Sun Woo" asking the chairman to make the murder as suicide. Yes, "Lee Tae Oh" is her son's father and she would not like her son's father to be called a murderer but remember she used to make such a big fuss and throw anger all over "Lee Tae Oh" for his actions up until now.
6. As we have seen up until now "Ji Sun Woo" can do anything to protect her son. In the beginning of the series she even pretended the son died so as to compel "Lee Tae Oh" to physically assault her so that his son and "Go Ye Rim" could see it.
7. Also the way she drove her so carelessly when she was following "Lee Tae Oh" to catch him red handed for the infidelity and similarly while trying to run away with his son before pretending the death. This shows that when she is angry she doesn't think with her right mind as a result dangering her life as well as people around her. She also slept with "Son Je Hyuk" [Ye Rim's husband] just so that she can get insight of the financial detail. This shows how dangerous she really is.
8. She is a mother and she knew "Park In Gyu" was big threat for her family and a mother can go up to any extent to protect her family.
I think Min Hyun Seo pushed Park In Gyu from the rooftop. When she saw Ji Sun Woo having a meeting with Yeo Byung Gyu [Da Kyung's father] she might have realized that Sun Woo will not label Lee Tae Oh as a murderer (putting her at disadvantage) so she decided to tell the police that Lee Tae Oh had killed Park In Gyu (little did she know that Ji Sun Woo was trying to make the case as suicide). Min Hyun Seo might have got frustrated with Park In Gyu so she decides to kill him and may be blame Ji Sun Woo using the scarf (or the scarf might have been accidental) but when she sees Lee Tae Oh she then forms this plan to put the blame to him. Yeo Byung Gyu [Chairman] confiscated the hard disk as he might have thought Lee Tae Oh might have killed Park [he has not yet seen the footage yet so he is not sure about that and he is doing it for her daughter as he doesn't seem to care about Lee Tae Oh].
