Thanks for answer. My husband and I have been watching Lawless Lawyer together and the violence, although only occasional, has been over the top. My solution is to read the recaps ahead and FF through the violent parts, but husband isn't very happy with that. If you say the ML/FL are badass and smart, then I'll take a look.

I assume that someone will eventually clean this jangled English version, but this is what appear on the KBS site:

In the 13th preview, gojin (kim jae-wook) confesses his true love for shin-a (jeong-jeong-jung) to a swimmer (baek swimming) who is convinced that he is not amnesia, and an angry swimmer reveals to shin-a that his [sic] first love is gojin. Meanwhile, se (ha jun) recalls ma (baek ju-hee) and removes gogin from his position as ceo.

I don't understand what "recalls ma [Chief Ma]" might mean.

Also find it difficult to believe that a CEO can be ousted this easily, especially if GoTop is a publicly traded company, but perhaps Kdramas don't worry about legalities that much?

Several days ago, dcinmb provided this link to the Ep. 13 English Sub preview but it's buried way down in the comments, so I'm providing again.

I also found the written spoilers (a little bit different from the video) - see below.

Question re: Vicenzo - How violent is it? I don't mind the CL violence because thus far, there really hasn't been anyone harmed/killed (except for hit-and-run).

I began to re-watch Her Private Life last night. Great mix of comedy and romance. There's not really a mystery similar to CL. It's more a mystery about the ML's childhood. But it has Kim Jae Wook and, like his portray in CL, he is a genius with his facial expressions - words not required.

The first video reminded me that the 1st time Go-Jin saw Shin-ah in the hospital, she was wearing BSY's blue dress and her hair was styled in a similar fashion. At the time, the viewer didn't know that BSY and NGJ were involved in the past. The doctor tells him she is his fiancé. I've always wondered why the writers wrote the scene with those clothes.

Thanks; I was kinda hoping it was NGJ, but I will stay in my happy bubble and assume that all will be in the end of this next 4 episode roller coaster.

Not Secretary Jo - my mini-crush! (although I realized today he has been at least coordinating with Se-gi - need to finalize a post on that matter). Question - would a MAN cut up those roses and prepare the basket with the knife? Would a man send messages like "you make me want to vomit" and "Writing this with my blood now; Your blood next time"? I don't see it, but we have 4 episodes to go to find out.

Me?? I'm absolutely convinced that Our Darling Couple is romantically safe and secure for the remainder of show. I like your prediction scenario for NGJ and Shin-ah. The problem is (In My Opinion), Go-Jin doesn't realize that Shin-ah is at physical risk from the stalker.

My prediction for 13-14 (maybe 15)?: Our Darling Couple okay as a couple, Go-Jin pulls a hat trick and retains [or returns to] top position at GoTop. Then Ep 15-16 is dealing with the stalker who everyone seems to be oblivious about. Noh Go-Jin!! Wake up - your precious Shin-ah is in danger. You promised Dad you would protect her! Do it.

Oh, and we need making love scene somewhere in there. Not sure which episode it will happen, but it will!

The end.

Icing on cake? NGJ visits Dad and asks permission to marry daughter for real this time. We need another father/son talk with these lovely men folks. Also, shin-ah total take-down (hopefully with a "crazy" slap) of BSY.

I guess this is what i WANT to see, not a prediction.

Question re: preview of Ep 13. {sorry, I don't know how to do links
- does this site use html??] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k79kakBjNs

In the preview someone says in the English sub version: "I'm gonna crash you from a higher place". Is the voice NGJ or Se-gi? I can't tell.

BTW, on YouTube, there are various sub versions of the Ep 13 preview and well over 150K viewers thus far. Hope the powers that be are noticing this!

1. Well, this is what popped into my head at 3:00 a.m this morning re: our couple. The seeds of doubt are being planted: Go-Jin is confused why LSA won't let him buy things for her (camera) or call him something other than Mr. Noh. I think LSA has had fears all along that she isn't "good enough" for NGJ and still doesn't quite believe that he will be there forever. And BSY will do her best to rub it in. So, I think there is going to be one final round of doubts/second guessing (but NOT misunderstanding, I hope). All to be resolved in Ep 13 or 14 with them finally making it into the bedroom (I hope that photo is gone by then!)
5. I'm optimistic that the writers have given us (and NGJ) enough clues that he is connecting the dots, but he still believes it is segi that is trying to harm (or even kill) him. He also understands that Segi is trying to sabotage him/GoTop. It might be because of the sister, but when Se-gi cleaned out his bank account, he told NGJ "You need to look after me now, sir." Maybe he thinks Go-jin hasn't done so?

Thanks. I do everything on my PC - it's the only device where I can watch CL.

Does she know-know? Or, is she throwing out bait - as suggested by Secretary Jo (who by the way I have decided is a baddie and I must give up my mini-crush on him).

I just read that very lengthy thread from last night (my last night, that is). Really enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts on when and how the romance progressed (and regressed).

Question for you - how does one insert emojis into a post?

If you enjoyed BP, I think you will love CL. It's part rom-com and part mystery. The humor is a bit dark at first, but stay with it - the scripts begin to fire on all cylinders by the end of Ep. 2

I apologize autumn carrot. I was writing too quickly and I broke my rule about re-reading before hitting the reply button. I didn't mean to criticize your choice of words. I have a theory that the stalker isn't trying to murder NGJ and my comment should have been written to say that rather than being flippant. i'm sorry - will do better.

OMG - the choreographed ladder kiss scene. Thanks for sharing.

haha, but. . . .I still haven't watched ABP Ep. 12 (altho I read about the Min-woo part and perhaps that's why I simply couldn't be bothered wasting my time). Maybe someday. Agree with your assessment of CL - the writers are genius. This is one of the most carefully (and lovingly) plotted/paced series I have ever viewed. Ep. 11 was epic and Ep 12 was joyful. I continue to be overwhelmed with the sheer talent of all - writers, actors, lighting, direction - everything. Two more weeks until it is over - will be bitter sweet but hopefully I will finally be able to binge watch in the USA with my family a few weeks later.

Preach it, sista! May God put a pox on the writers if they play the "noble idiocy" (and I DO understand that one) on us. After 12 episodes of freakin' landing it Every Single Episode, I have faith they plotted/paced the 16 episodes with care and love for the viewer and the story arc. Several plot points to unravel and resolve - seems perfect for 4 remaining episodes. But then. . . .I thought they would resolve a number of things in Business Proposal and that sure deflated quickly.

More context - thank you Cattaurus.
