What is with the egg thing everyone is mentioning on Viki? Did I missed something in one of the episodes 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Not sure what's on Viki, but it might be related to the scene at Subway where Jun-ho orders a number of egg mayo subs and Min-jeong immediately texts him with her preferred sandwich.
Lee Je Hoon is my favourite Korean actor and I've watched everything he's been in but after reading this dramas…
Do you watch dramas because of the actors? or the story?
I know nothing about Lee Je Hoon, but his performance captivates me. However, apparently very different from his Taxi Driver character. This drama is more about revenge, but the battle is fought over money, not violence.
So episode 10 ending... Im kinda thinking that maybe its not the dad and its just framed that it is... but at…
I admit that I'm still back on Ep. 8, but I have felt (well, truthfully, hoped) from the beginning that Dad was somehow injured and is suffering from amnesia. Based on comments, I'll still hold on to that thought/hope.
No he can't negotiate and work alone because he doesn't know everything and also except the intern everyone in…
According to JTBC web site, she IS his wife. Her name is Anna Park. To be revealed - what was her relationship with Jun-ho's brother?? something more than "sister-in-law", apparently. I don't like her.
Oh that's a surprise, I was expecting it to be another long ep!
I checked the JTSB schedule and Episode 6 will be much longer. I'm hoping that after they wrap up WIND, we will see the beginning of Jun-ho's plan for revenge. But heck, maybe it will be nothing more than the wife showing up. Either way, I expect the end of Ep. 6 (halfway mark) to be a pivot to the long stories - Jun-hos plan for revenge and the ongoing battle for control of Sanin.
Episode 5 was a bit shorter than usual (1 hour 5 minutes) and almost 100% focused on the newest "deal" that Jun-ho must accomplish.
Some lovely scenes in Japan, but lots of dialogue was a mixture of Japanese, Korean and English. I wish Viki didn't eliminate the Korean sub-titles when characters were speaking Japanese.
I'm ready for the deal-making to end and the battle for control of Sanin to begin.
Is she really his wife? I personally thought it was his brother’s wife and he was trying to take care of his…
The JTBC web site specifically states that Anna Park is "Juno-ho's wife". And that the young girl is "Jun-ho's daughter".
Their story could go in a variety of directions and based on current dialogue (ep 1-4), the photos and the scene at the columbarium, the one that will make the most sense is that she cheated on Jun-ho w/the brother and the daughter is not his. But that's pure guess and lots more to be revealed, I'm sure.
Jun-ho's wife: According to JTBC website, the woman/child in Ep. 3 are actually. . . .his wife and daughter.
Wife's name is "Anna Park".
Side note: Rumors (which may mean nothing) from Episode 1: "It is rumored that Mr. Yun is the heir." "The Chairman has a secret daughter and he will marry her off to Mr. Yun and that is why he won't pass ownership to his children".
I'm currently at the 2nd episode and the current Chairman gives me creepy vibes? Is he a good person or is it…
He's good.
One reason I like this drama is that the writer/director doesn't spell everything out for the viewer. A lazy writer would have a third person(s) making comments like: The Chairman is trying to maintain his youth; he doesn't realize that times have changed; desires to hold onto his comfort zone; etc.
instead, the viewer watches: (i) many examples of Chairman appearing health-conscious (hiking, injections, back massage) (ii) asking the young female doctor to writer her name in Chinese characters (very old-school) (iii) Resists innovation (I'm not sure we have ever seen him using a computer or smart phone?); eating at neighborhood noodle houses with his old friend Lee. (iv) he doesn't lead meetings or conduct press conferences (meetings are almost all one-on-one)
At one time he was definitely married (according to former co-workers) and he continues to claim to be married.
Writer-nim is clearly playing some tricks on the viewer with introduction of woman/child scene. I fully expect the wife to show up in the last episode - perhaps even the last few minutes of the last episode.
so episode 4 was fineeeeeeeeeee .... I really liked the description of human predictability ... that was nice…
Pretty sure the child and his mother (?) are in somewhere tropical (Hawaii?) based on the decor. Based on photos in the (columbarium) she is somehow related to his brother that committed suicide - perhaps wife, perhaps a sister? He called him "hyeong)" [older brother].
For my peace and sanity, I ended this drama right at episode 19😌
The original plan was for 20 episodes and it's clear to me that the Dang-gu/Cho Yeon wedding was intended to be the finale. And then some dumb f**k idiots realized they were going over budget and needed 10 more episodes to hopefully break even. [Of course, the excuse was they needed 10 more episodes to fully flesh out the characters - the characters that 100% changed personality in Season 2). I still can't forgive them - Hong Sisters, Studio Dragon - I'm not sure where the blame lies.
They changed her personality completely too. I think of s2 as a completely diffrent drama. So disappointing
What uvimolla said. Season 1 was incredibly unique - cinematography, script, actors, CGI. Season 2 was clearly on a reduced budget (especially CGI) and script was a mess. 3 years later and I still can't forgive the studio for the mess they created because "we need more $$$" to break even so we're going to add 10 more episodes.

Ratings are high in Korea.

Great episode, however.
