I think ex-wife Bitch is the real villain. MiHo understands/is a product of her world. Very different values from the world of commoners. She thinks she is helping Sang Eun. She is wrong, but she is thinking that she is helping San Eun "reach her "value/potential". She will be "redeemed" Not sure how, but it's my prediction.

Meanwhile, ex-wife is just plain evil/manipulative, gold-digger, awful, awful person. Can't wait for karma to his her in her pathetic face.

I think GN and Ji-ho will now team up to protect/support/love - LOVE!! 💕- Sang Eun. I have never doubted what the end game might be - only question is whether the writers do the unimaginative, k-drama "break-up" (i.e. flight to Canada) or if our couple will stay strong ("fighting!") through this s**t. I know Ji-ho will fight - hope Sang Eun trusts him.

In the opening, GN said he hasn’t done anything wrong but why does he feel tensed, then he goes on to ask Jiho if he knew him. Jiho says yes, and he knows he’s SE house mate. GN goes on to say he was once SE’s client. He said he had a feeling Jiho wouldn’t know and he said he was correct that Jiho didn’t know he was once a client. GN goes on to compliment SE work ethics for taking other’s privacy seriously. GN further asked Jiho how he could not misunderstand their relationship, Jiho says SE says he didn’t have any reason to misunderstand. GN agree and says he isn’t interested in women. GN goes on to ask if he knew anything about SE’s life, Jiho tells him what he learnt about SE in episode 11 (what she told him about herself). He mentions the nanny that adopted her (Miho). Jiho asked if there’s more he needs to know, GN starts ranting about how Miho keeps bothering and trying to ruin SE’s life. GN also talked about how he noticed Jiho’s feelings a long time ago (during their divorce process), then he goes on to talk about how much he owes her and how she paid for everything during their wedding, and how she’s so considerate of other but not herself. He also mentions how SE really likes Jiho and he hopes Jiho will be the first man to save (give her happiness) SE.

In the comments, someone wrote out a summary (English) and it looks like -Gwang Nam redeems himself for interrupting our couple in Ep. 11. See below w/spoiler tag.

I enjoyed the show - but then, I think all will be well in the end so I figure I'm along for the ride, including the villains. Viki is usually much earlier release on Thursday mornings. Crossing fingers.

She's mentioned that being in his apartment was peaceful and that sometimes she wished she could just "hang out" there. My impression is that it was a sanctuary for her although she never really admitted it or recognized it until recently.

When she first appeared on the show, I called her a gold-digging,, status-seeking B**ch. Several people disagreed or felt sorry for her. In the end, she is the real "villain" - and I still think she will end up as Kang Seon Jin's (older brother) mistress.

This is funny pre-release of Ep. 11 via twitter account w/some English translations (read all of her comments). I can't wait to watch tomorrow's episode. Unfortunately, Viki will probably release just as I am about to out the door for appointment. 😢😢

TvN usually releases them about 12 hours before broadcast.

Meanwhile, if you are interested, here's a link to Ep. 9-10 Behind-the-Scenes, including The Kiss. 😊

Like many k-dramas with 2nd male leads, the FF button may be your friend. 😊

WinterWilliams - you have been on MDL and a fan of AoS for several months. I enjoy reading many of your comments. However. . . . .you alone can decide if you wish to persuade or . . . . . . . .to be provocative. Your recent post about In-soo (Dang-gu) would be more persuasive if you didn't bring other actors/characters into the discussion. It's your choice. Either way, your comments and posts are unique, analytical, interesting and not rooted in emotion/fandom. I respect that - but I'm in a minority when it comes to AoS fandom.😊😊😊

In-soo is very young and yet a very versatile actor who was actually trained To. Be. An. Actor. (unlike the models and K-pop cast members). There is no way that I can bring myself to watch "We are all Dead" (or whatever it's called), but I started watching the original "Uncanny Counters" show when I heard that he would be joining the 2nd Season. I hope he will be related somehow (in a good way) to "Uncle" Park Jin (actor Yu Jon Sang).

Haha, thanks for response. The plot of JI doesn't interest me much and if he's the SML - then probably won't invest my limited time. I added "Private Lives" to my watchlist. Another one to watch w/a heavy finger on the FF button because every review I've read said the "story" is messy and incomprehensible, but GKP's character was watchable.

I read the synopsis previously and I wasn't that interested in the story. After your comment, I looked further - and he's the SML 😢. Instead, I began watching "Deliveryman" - I get the feeling the writers love cars and motorcycles and wrote a k-drama around it. Should be a quick binge with a heavy finger on the FF button. GKP's acting has improved immensely in just a few years. 😊

Wow, that will take some digging - and I promise to do it but might take a few days. I think it was for recent (since end of part 1 - maybe early September???) photo shoot in one of the fashion magazines. I agree that GYJ took over at some point - Ep. 10 would be "mid-way", correct??. 😄😄 I don't want to get into a battle about any of this, but my recollection is that GYJ was originally hired for a cameo and that's why she was identified as "guest role" on MDL the first few weeks. And then MDL moved her to "support" role. I'll get back to you via message if that's okay with you. 😊

This is the first time I have seen a k-drama with GKP, and I admit I've been impressed with his acting range (example: when his voice was shaking during that late night conversation with the "consultant").

I just looked up his bio (MDL) and in his next project ("Connect") he apparently plays a serial killer!! I won't be watching that one. 🤣🤣

Useless? If he hadn't moved into the apartment, (1) Sang Eun wouldn't have been attacked by the motorcyclist; (2) Jin-ho would have proceeded with the divorce; and (3) sang Eun would have been on a flight to Canada. 😂😂😂

" and voiced Mudeok's thoughts throughout the season."

I'm going to try and begin gently debunking this "myth" which has caused much angst between the various fandoms. I agree that GYJ began to voice Naksu's inner voice about mid-way through the series, but in a recent interview, JSM said that one of the "voices" she needed to portray was the "deeper" voice of GYJ when doing Naksu's inner thoughts.

Agree. I missed that 3-second scene (returning to the dinner from outside) the first time I watched, but noticed the 2nd time. So much more to come as to why Sang Eun went ballistic at the chaebol dinner. Hopefully the writers will use the incident to explain PTSD of sexual assault victims. And, hopefully we will get a scene of Ji-ho destroying Kang Seon Jin (the brother) when he finds out. Although, i think ex-wife will end up as mistress to the brother.

Thank you!. I'll try Singapore tomorrow and see if that works for me.
