Anything is possible with her. I wonder what the fallout will be from her "You'd Be Shocked" appearance.That…
Acowen, I googled the below question. I can't believe that I forgot about making wills! 😆 Jinseok cannot avoid giving her his assets, should he die. Unless he gives up his house and Shoealls CEO position to Seongjae. Also transfer all his other assets and money to Seongjae. Whoa! Before I googled, I thought a will solves all his problems. 😲
[can a husband make a will to exclude his wife in South Korea]
+1 Yes, a husband can make a will to exclude his wife in South Korea, but she still has a legal right to a " forced heirship" or compulsory portion, allowing her to claim a significant part (typically half) of what she would have received by law, even if the will tries to disinherit her. While Korean law traditionally protected these family shares, a 2024 Constitutional Court ruling invalidated the minimum required inheritance, opening the door for greater testamentary freedom, but the legal right to claim a portion remains a significant factor. Key Aspects of Korean Inheritance Law: Statutory Inheritance: Without a will, the spouse and children are the first priority. The spouse typically inherits equally with the children, but gets an extra 50% share. Legal Reserve (Forced Heirship): Even with a will, the spouse (and children/parents) are guaranteed a minimum share, usually half of their statutory share. Recent Changes: The Constitutional Court's ruling in 2024 struck down the minimum requirements, meaning that a will can theoretically disinherit family members more effectively, but the legal framework is evolving. Spousal Claim: A wife can still file a claim for her reserved portion, challenging the will in court to secure her guaranteed share, especially if the will leaves her with nothing or very little. In Summary: A husband can write a will disinheriting his wife, but Korean law protects the surviving spouse's right to a statutory share, and she can legally challenge the will to claim this portion, despite recent legal shifts. Legal advice from a Korean lawyer is crucial for specific situations.

With Seonghui, I don't know why she is shocked. Seems like she is the the FL. She has more screentime than Subin and Yeongra. 😆
One thing that I am sure about Seonghui is she will not get any redemption arc. But I am clueless of how she will end up. Maybe as Jinseok said, she will have to return to where she came from. 😆
Jinseok refused to divorce Seonghui because then she will receive alimony. However, he needs to be mindful that if he dies suddenly now or dies later, without the divorce, Seonghui will receive 50% of his assets. I have a bad feeling that bad Seonghui might attempt to have Jinseok killed. She would tell the killers that she would pay them once he is dead. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
I felt the same way watching ep 45. So sad watching Jihyeok's father trying to deal with it. Incredibly sad, but…
His dad is in his 60s. They may or may not agree to do it. But it will be too tragic. A commenter suggested Woojin might die of complications from the liver transplant. His heart will be donated to the man whom his sister loves. In this way, his heart will be near to the only sister whom he loves for decades. Isn't this theory touching?
Perfect theory! 😁👏The only concern is Woojin's heart must be healthy enough for donation. But this being…
Agree. This is a kdrama so you and I felt that Woojin would be the best choice so that the the ML Jihyeok will live. We know, for a fact, that this ML will not die. I am not being cruel but I have observed that Woojin plays a very small role in this drama. That's why I chose Woojin.
This is the cold reality of dramas but I have also observed that there are viewers who have opposing views from us. We are not denouncing anyone but just posting our honest opinion. You and I have always respected others' comments.
Episode 45 made me sad and tearful for Jihyeok, his father, Jinseok and Seongjae.
Jihyeok is in the prime of his life, the woman he loves is reciprocating his love finally, his business is doing well... but he is dying.
His father's pain of watching his son slowly die is heart-wrenching.
Although Jinseok only showed anger and sarcasm, I did not think of how sad and bitter he must have been, to be deceived by his wife whom he sincerely loved for 26 years. Only when Yeongra asked her father if he was alright, that I realised he needs consolation and concern too.
Seongjae must be in turmoil at the thought of losing his close friend. I have also lost a close friend to illness so...
just a thought ........ ujins liver transplant fails , so he decides to give his heart to the man his sister loves…
Perfect theory! 😁👏
The only concern is Woojin's heart must be healthy enough for donation. But this being dramaland so Woojin's heart will be very suitable for donation, agree? 😅
Hello I still have not started this. I wonder if anyone can tell me if it is worth starting at the beginning.
Mamamia! You have yet to start watching FM? Do not hesitate - Just Do It. The cast, especially the main ones, are pretty good. Storyline will make your jaw drop. 😲😵
Hwayoung plans to send Jangmi overseas for studies. But, by a stroke of fate, Seorin might be the one going overseas. Otherwise, how will the twins live each other's lives.
I guess that Hwayoung's first son could be Junho, who is being harassed and despised by Hwayoung, herself, at the restaurant. Wouldn't it turn out to be sweet and bitter?
agree about those 2 faces and give also few kicks for me ... hwayoung ,, the only thing she is right and agree…
Baekho's help is absolutely essential to Jangmi. That's why these two characters have made connection early in the drama.
I am speculating that something awful would happen to Yeongja when she finds out about the affair. Or Hwayoung might sent killers on Yeongja because the latter threatens to expose her affair with her husband.
That will be how Baekho becomes embroiled in the revenge plot.
Yes, Baekho and Jangmi would have to know what happens to Seorin and her relationship with Jangmi.
Acowen, as I watched Jangmi in episode 20 as she, Baekho and Taepyeong were walking in the lobby of Dream Hotel, I noticed her attire was sloppy and hair was messy.
Jangmi will become trendy. Seorin will become sloppy or maybe not as sloppy as Jangmi. 😅
Ohh.. I assumed it was Eun Oh's mother and he did not know her name, so he'll tell them afterwards or via text.…
Calm down! Dew and I were exploring who would be chosen by the Writer to sacrifice his/her life to save Jihyeok. I could be wrong but that's the fun of speculation.
Thanks
She might die.
