Before the series started airing, I had written a comment in which I had expressed my wish for the series to focus on the girls' friendship and individual development and not the love triangle. Based on what I've heard from other comments and posts on social media, that's not the case so I will put off this show for now. I might binge all episodes at once once it's finished or catch up before the finale if something more interesting happens.
After Episode 4, I will say that Eunsoo's friend definitely has a crush on her husband but Eunsoo's husband doesn't seem interested. I also doubt that something is going on between them.
Not gonna lie, I laughed when Gyeong said that but honestly, Eun Soo needed a reality check. It's very logical that she would be naive and clueless but she hasn't realised how serious this business is and she should accept that Gyeong doesn't help her out of kindness.
It's one of the most watched 2025 kdramas in korea , but no global popularity .
That happens pretty often. Low Life was also pretty popular in Korea but it was a flop internationally. Same for Aema. Queen Mantis doesn't have a plot that could make international watchers interested (unfortunately...)
Explain to me what’s going on with the ratings?When it’s some love story filled with every cliché in the…
I totally get your frustation but many users (like me) do not give a rating to a show before it's finished. I'm sure that once it's finished (and if the quality remains good), the rating will go up!
Yeah, the rating hit 8.0! So deserved, hopefully it'll increase a little bit more. I totally understand why some people have complaints regarding the main plot, I too have voiced my issues but overall, Queen Mantis was a good psychological thriller and it deserves more recognition.
I think that it's implied that Su Yeol kept in contact with I Sin when she was in prison. We see her drawing his family happily while looking at a photo which I don't think is posted online. And when meet again to start the investigation, it doesn't look like they see each other for the first time after 2 years.
Isin's crashout in the final episode made me cry with her. She went through so much and she finally let her emotions free. Go Hyun Jung, your acting cannot be described in mere words for there are no adjective to do justice to your masterclass performance.
I am on Episode 10, I want to binge it but at the same time I want to take my sweet time savouring it. I didn't expect to love the series as much as I do.

Their partnership is sooo interesting to watch.
