This was officials in Korea arguing with officials in Japan. None of those men were significant characters nor do I expect any of them to return.

... this isn't even right? their dads are brothers. but Iljo is actually adopted. That's why they're not blood related. But Jeonghan didn't know that til near the end.

...me coming to read the comments because i'm 30 minutes in and bored watching these men argue...

If you like a character driven story, this has some of the best writing of the year. You're not going to get jail breaks or psychopaths or car chases or explosions. But if you have patience, intelligence, and some media literacy skills it's an exceptionally rewarding journey.

mmm. i don't know yet. she's definitely giving mpdg.

So much relied on coincidence rather than character. Junseo’s final actions only happened because the show was ending, not because it made sense for him to do that at that time. The transplant thing didn’t need to be there at all. Rena, Junseo’s mom, Seung Hui, and Ahjin are all very similar characters. It was all a lot of style over substance.

Haha thank you. I agree he's adorable!!

I think a lot of people are mistaking good acting for good writing. This was well acted, it was not particularly well written...

There is such thing as a foolproof plan in fiction. Because the writer can make it so. Trying to flush a hat down the toilet was stupid. Keeping the journal was stupid. I just think she consistently under-thought her plans - including marrying Do Hyuk.

Nah, she was kinda dumb from the start. Her plans were always full of holes. She easily got caught framing Choi Jeong Ho and only got out of that mess because of sheer coincidence. Re Na figured her out right away. In Gang also figured her out quickly and then didn't trust his own instincts. Not getting rid of the grandma's journal was dumb. Like she was never actually all that clever - she just got lucky a lot. I don't know if it's bad writing or the writers wanted her to seem sort of incompetent but I suspect the former.

Park Tae Jung and An Yo Han felt like they belonged in two separate shows.

Because once he saw in the paper (that Tae Poong handed him) that the patent for the fan had been released he had no reason to waste money on buying out the company.

Watch Rain or Shine/Just Between Lovers. It's his best show by far.

So he could bid absurdly low instead of sending in Hyun Jun and having him make an actual competitive bid.

People complaining it was repetitive because every episode was about the company overcoming a new obstacle... well, yes? That's what the show was about. But overcoming each of those obstacles also helped at least one character grow, learn, and evolve.

They used the same money they were going to use to pay back the loan to buy back the company at the auction.

This epic pairing deserved so much better.

Loved the first two. Set up several mysteries, an interesting structure, and a deep connection between our leads. Everyone complaining lacks patience.

This is so good. But it's stressing me out. Every time something goes well for them, I have to brace for whatever disaster is right around the corner.

Thematically interesting but lots of nonsense as a mystery/thriller plot.
