Just because they cited ratings doesn't make it so. The entertainment industry in South Korea, just like almost everywhere else, is not known for being honest.

The ratings for this drama have consistently been under 6%.

Underperforming (Under 6%): For a major public broadcast network, dipping below 6% means the storyline is failing to retain its core audience.

Chloe's first act failed, and she is on the verge of making another mistake because of information she doesn't know.

Dan Hee is still playing silly games with Jeong Ran. She has spent over 30 years at this, and she still does not understand who she is up against. Jeong Ran is dangerous and always has been. You can't hesitate and try to make deals with or blackmail someone like her because she will kill you.

We have had over 100 episodes of every single thing going her way. Even when it doesn't, she can just talk her way out of any jam. She can bribe anyone; even if someone utters some critical information under their breath, she will be in the perfect position to overhear it. Spoon-fed information. It's just absurdity after absurdity.

Of course, she is winning again. This has never been a revenge drama. Instead, it has always been a story about the rise and fall of Hwa Yeong.

It's Hwa Yeong's world, and all the others are just secondary characters in it. Her downfall will come at her own hands rather than at the hands of those seeking revenge.

It would nice if Hong Ju and her mom acted like real Golddiggers. This entire drama they have been cosplaying tenants in a boarding house.

After everything Hwa Yeong has gotten away with very easily, the physical abuse, embezzlement, deceit, lying, kidnapping, and murder, I don't know how any viewer can be expected to be satisfied with one episode of her downfall. Some weak-ass scene where the police walk in and handcuff her seems so inadequate. I fear that's what we are going to get. This writer needs to prove me wrong.

I don't understand why you would introduce characters and plotlines if you are going to abandon them or make no further use of them, even when you get an extension and time to do so.

The writer failed on so many levels when she could have had a pretty good drama going. She failed to make this a true back-and-forth battle, wasted character arcs, like San Wol and Hong Ju, and in both Seo Rin and Jun Ho's cases, she had them change personalities without providing a compelling reason for the changes in them. She has even managed to make Tae Pyeong a pointless character now.

The complete nonsense that is going on now in this disaster of a revenge drama is what you get with extensions that were not originally planned for and are totally unwarranted.

I bet he will for a while. Still over 20 episodes to go.

Is Hwa Yeong doing that because she lost her slush fund and has no other option left but this?

But, there is still time for Hwa Yeong to pull off her BS. The Chairman and Jang Mi are still way too easy to fool with fabricated nonsense evidence.

She is scary. I wonder if she plans on physically hurting someone.

I think his bio-mother left on her own or was even driven out. Se Ri raised him, his sister, and I think they were starting the process where Se Ri could become his true mother.

100% 💯

The more details that come out about what happened back then, their conduct looks even worse.

Both elders seemed to have accepted the rumors and innuendos rather than trusting and having faith in their loved ones.

Good points.

How do they get over how they treated their wife and mother?

The words "Chae Hwa-young's son" are stuck in Baek-ho's head and won't leave... But Oh Jang-mi was different. She said the ages didn't match and that something was off. In the end, the only card the two played was a DNA test. A single line on the results changed everything. "Paternity... inconsistent." And Baek-ho's eyes changed. What if we used this in reverse? As Chae Hwa-young wavers because of her bloodline, Jun-ho's position begins to crumble little by little....
