Honestly, there is no point in having a discussion with this one....like I said before....a brick wall...

I understood about your narrow point of view the moment you mentioned the "perverse" work of Machiavelli. If you have truly read about Machiavelli's work then you would have known that there are many schools of thought regarding the analysis of his works, not only one group who think that it is perverse. You act like you have written this show and you are 100% sure what's going to happen. Having half knowledge about things is poison because then people with half knowledge (people like you) misconstrue and twist things without knowing the full truth and categorizes everything as either black or white. That is dangerous. You remind me of those hardcore religious priests who label anything unconventional as the "devil's work"...

Gaon goes to stab Yohan based on a littlebook found at the site of another possible murder. But Yohan tells Gaon "You will regret this" and then there are blood drops on the floor. It could also be possible that Yohan said that Gaon because well...when Gaon finds the true mastermind...he will regret it. just saying...

People are just frustrated with poor writing of these characters. I don't agree with the strong words used though. When SH died, I felt nothing because her character was poorly written and failed to connect with the majority of the audience other than just being there as Gaon's potential romantic interest. Most female characters are written this way in kdramas and that's frustrating.
When it comes to Gaon, until episode 13, I understood where he was coming from because he was confused but if someone yo-yos between being sus of someone and then not, then as a viewer it's kind of hard to watch. He is a judge but his character is shown to be quite irresponsible, impatient and immature. Again, I don't think anyone is questioning Gaon for being moral or the empathetic one. It's just his actions are not in alignment with what his character is supposed to do. Yohan is the devil judge committing immoral deeds and everyone expects it.

PS - There is nothing wrong with your english! :)

I haven't watched ep 14 but what I gather from comments it seems draggy? I think they might be trying to introduce another potential bad guy in the mix. Like I expected things to roll on from ep 14 but...

Sometimes it's like talking to a brick wall with some commenters. They see something with their narrow point of view, fail to see the big picture and then blame others for not understanding the "plot". Like, you can have a preference on who you like and don't like but stop going around and preaching to others how they are supporting immorality and rejecting morality. Just say you hate a character and go to sleep. Some will agree with you and some won't. No need to try and convert people. I am amazed this even has to be said in a comment section where people are expected to have a healthy conversation with an open mind.

LOL Imma be honest, I am an anti-yeagerist but don't attack me pls xD

I think it has been pointed out by many that the show is not as simple as someone being pure evil and someone being pure angel. I don't know what your problem is but you keep saying the same things over and over again. Every single comment. No one hates SooHyun's character for being righteous but it's the lack of aptitude and not doing the right thing at the right time from her part that's getting on viewer's nerves. It's also the way her character has been written. She had so much potential but the writer made Gaon her personality. She was supposed to be a POLICE OFFICER and she couldn't even do that properly.

Korea is also a country where literally bullies, chaebols get away with sexual assault, bullying, scamming people for money, etc. The law is in favor of these people and the victims have always been suffering. What happened to the righteous ones? No one here thinks Yohan is an angel. People know he is dangerous and destructive but you don't seem to understand the concept of necessary evil. Ever heard of the anti-hero? It's in the tag list.

Honestly, I am sus of the professor but maybe that's just me lol. Guess some of it will be revealed in tomorrow's ep. Things will roll fast from now on since there not much time left to create a more complicated twist but again it's all speculations.

in the preview for ep 14, the professor tells Gaon that he will find out who is SooHyun's killer.

I think it's linked somewhere below...

I saw some pictures where the actress was given flowers which usually happens after a final scene of the character or something like that. Also the shot was quite clean and in the chest, which is hard to come back from...

I find the professor quite sus. I would be surprised if after all this he has had no role in the whole game other than just telling Gaon to spy for him and get info...that would be another waste of a side character with some potential (either good or bad).

I mean I kind of predicted that would happen because the way her character was written...writer could've just made her role more useful instead but...

lool sounds typical of Gaon and SooHyun....oblivious of everything going on around them as always

I agree that in kdramas female characters are often just reduced to being ML's love interest or just there as decoration. The writer didn't even have to take away anything from Yohan's character and still could've made SooHyun's character a good support role. At least make her do actual policework without any prejudice than just running after her crush.

they said Gaon didn't leave Yohan just because of Soohyun, not that Gaon left Soohyun.

I kind of understand Gaon's dilemma in this case. He used to be a troublemaker in school but due to Soohyun and his professor, he had a change in his personality. Now Yohan enters and asks him to leave everything he has known so far behind and revert to being a troublemaker with him so he is confused. He is on the fence. While he understands Soohyun and his professor, he also understands where Yohan is coming from. I think most people have problem with Soohyun's character because she is supposed to be police but so far she has not shown great policework. She is either running after Gaon trying to baby him or taking impulsive decisions where she ends up getting saved by others. The writer could have given her a more well rounded personality rather than making Gaon her personality trait lol...

This is a multilayered drama but you keep missing the essence of the drama. there is no definite good and bad. a lot of characters fall in the grey area. You keep harping about how people shouldn't root for Yohan. Yohan is not a good, angelic character by any means. But even with evil, there are layers. the way you keep describing Yohan seems you have settled in your mind that he is 100% evil and Gaon is 100% good. That is a mistake. No one is putting Yohan in a box and we all know that there are some twists to be revealed. BUT sometimes we have to choose between evil and really evil. People like Gaon are not aware of the injustices around them unless someone like Yohan has to point it out. Law doesn't always work for the weak but people like Gaon are naive to think it does. In conclusion, the goal is a balance. The Yin and the Yang. world needs people like both Gaon and Yohan and only when they work together, things will fall in place. The world needs both people with empathy and people who have the capacity to take action.

Exactly. In reality there is no just black and white. So people who harp on people either being good or bad are naive and are not aware of the real world.
