Oh I didn't think about Doil's bodyguard, that's actually a possibility, you're right! I hope the next episode will clear it out (only four ep left 😢) . One thing is sure: Sang A needs to be locked up, that woman is even crazier than I thought 😂

Honestly at this point I have no idea about where it's going ahah. On one hand I agree with you because Sang A said Hwa Young is dead and unless she lied or Hwa Young found a body double to sacrifice, I can't see how she could be still alive. But on the other hand there actually was a white car that helped Injoo during the car chase + the "ghost" Hwa Young left her shoes in the hospital for Injoo and someone must have been there physically for it to happen because Injoo didn't have that shoes with her before. So, if not Hwa Young, who was with Injoo in the hospital and gave her the shoes?

There are different speculations about it, because it would seem that she was dreaming, but if that's true then why Hwa Young was limping and looked wounded during that scene? Some people think that she was the one driving the white car to protect Injoo during the car chase. I personally think it's possible.

Sort of 😂

THANK YOU. I don't know why people are still going around saying that smelling the orchid is dangerous when nothing happened to In Kyung when she smelled it in the last episode and none of the victims died of poisoning.

Second episode was even funnier than the first one, I'm loving it!

Which episode?

Add to this her dialogue with Sang A who tells her that by smelling the orchid at night she will finally understand what she truly desires in her heart. In Joo is an average girl without any talent, without strong ideals and without a dream, who lives with people that are far more talented (In Hye is a great painter, In Kyung is smart, competent at her job, has strong ideals and is talented in economy, also lived a better childhood than In Joo), in that dialogue her inferiority complex becomes evident. She knew that smelling the orchid was possibly dangerous, even though she didn't knew exactly how and to what extent (it was found at the crime scenes, but none of the victims died because of poisoning. She was able to guess that the flower is possibly a warning or some kind of symbol that connects everything, but Sang A told her that by accepting the flower she was becoming a potential member of their secret cult, so she didn't perceive it as an immediate threat. Also, not every poisonous plant or flower is actually poisoneus just by smelling it quickly). And she didn't listen to what Do-Il told her because she doesn't fully trust him yet and because of what Sang A said about not depending on a man to be powerful (Injoo said her dreams is to marry a rich man for money because she can't do anything else with her mediocre self, Sang A laughs at her dream and attacks Injoo's weak points, making her doubt herself and basically manipulating her into taking the orchid), Injoo knows that she's relying too much on Doil to gain power and money and Sang A made her become self conscious about it.

I'm not saying that the drama doesn't have flaws or that it doesn't require some suspension of disbeliefs, but most of the complaints about the writing are actually justified when you actually pay attention to it.

I had like zero expectations for this, but the first episode was actually really funny and surprisingly well done. If the rest of the season is just as good it might become my favorite law drama.

It's crazy, in a good way for me

But Hwa Young didn't die because of them. She died because she went against them on her own, Injoo didn't even know the truth when Hwa Young died. Director Shin died because he had his hands in that cult and he knew too much, it had nothing to do with the sisters. The guy who In Kyung wanted to interview died because she was investigating, but again he knew too much and they couldn't let him talk. He knew what he was getting into when he agreed to the interview, but he wanted the bad guys to pay. Blaming it all on the woman who was trying to uncover the truth is unfair. The only way to bring them down is by uncovering the truth (at the moment In Kyung didn't even know about the ledgers and the money that Injoo posses) and the only way to uncover the truth is by taking risks, there's no way to play it safe.

In Joo had 3 billions and didn't know where to hide them because those money were illegal, now she's working with a professional money launder to make it so that the money won't be illegal stolen money anymore, but money that you can safely put inside a bank

Lol exactly. And it's not even a matter of brains, but also of means. The sisters are poor and alone, while the crazy family has plenty of people working for them and have their hands in politics and finance. And people are criticizing In Kyung because she's too straightforward and putting her family at risk; like excuse me, but what is she supposed to do when she doesn't even have a team working with her? Her only weapon is destroying his image in front of the public to uncover the truth

Same, maybe they have a similar background or Idk, but it seems like he's getting attached to her in a way that can't no longer be justified by saying "she's money"

Exactly! Can't imagine waiting a whole year ahah

It might be, I forget some informations because there's just so much to process with each episode as the stakes are getting higher and the plot becomes more intricate. Honestly I wouldn't even be surprised if they go for a second season given how much there is to unveil 😂

But then they figure out that Hyorin must have seen that scene in the past. If I'm not mistaken they said that it's not Hwa Young the one in the pic and they have to find out where and when Hyorin's memories are from.

Yep, I'm loving all of their scenes. Sang A is an amazing villain

So everyone is hating on the sisters and the writing again. Same old, same old. But can we talk about the scene between Sang A and Injoo in the hospital? How Sang A is able to immediately identify Injoo's weak point after she tells her that her dream is to marry a rich man. Injoo has an inferiority complex toward her sisters: In Kyung is smart and brave and even good at stocks while In Hye is a really talented artist, but Injoo doesn't have any talent and she's aware of this and she feels about it because she's the eldest sister and she feels like she should take care of her family, but she just doesn't have any way to do it. Sang A realized how Injoo feels bad about not having a dream like her sisters and that's how she convinces her to take the orchid and smell it at night by telling her that it would reveal her secret wish, what she really wants. We can see how Sang A got under her skin even by how she treats Do Il later. Sang A says something about Injoo actually not wanting to rely on a man to be powerful and then Injoo acts noticeably colder to Do Il by refusing to listen to him. To be honest I've been loving how the writing has been so subtle so far, leaving room for ambiguity and interpretation and letting the characters speak through their actions.

I'm sorry but they won't be able to convince me that they would do better if they were in the sisters place, with stolen money, murders left and right, people far stronger and richer than you and a cult involved lol.

I kinda think that she will try to hit that family from inside. She's using her relationship with Hyorin to find out their secrets. Despite her attitude toward her sisters she's actually investigating Hwa Young's murder.
