Yeah -- it really doesn't bode well for Da Hae, does it???? But, not to worry - the hocus-pocus, mumbo-jumbo, abracadabra brigade is ready and waiting to explain how somehow, miraculously, she is different. Or, Gwi-ju is different. Or. . . . .dang, I just can't.

This makes ZERO sense. I understand the theory and perhaps where the story is going, but it makes ZERO sense. I swear, there have been times when I thought the drama was headed in the "alternate universe" story arc and at this point, it is pretty much the only thing that would explain how one specific ring could exists side by side.

THAT would be the perfect ending for me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, and that mother is a BAD mother. And the fathers who neglect their children are BAD fathers.

I've never liked him - now I hate him. And the two mothers.

I don't understand viewers who think he is romantic. I know that many do. . . . but I don't understand it. Simply does not compute.

What I noticed is: in Ep. 7, the woman who put her LEFT hand on his shoulder, had a ring on it. The woman in Ep. 8 (a different evening?) did not.

Just sayin'. But, perhaps I should re-watch.

Presumably, we will find out in Ep. 8. It is clearly not his wife, but difficult to determine if the ring is identical to The Family Ring. My wild guess? He asked that person to meet him.

Father Soon Gu knows that something does make sense w/r/t that Family Ring - because, if camera hints mean anything, was in one of those ring boxes at the wedding.

I theorized last week and I'll do it again - if the latest poster means anything, there is another family member that has not appeared yet OR Father Soon Gu has his own superpower. .What is the importance of that cave or tunnel that Da Hae saw when she first visited the estate? Is Da Hae a distant relative w/her own power? 2 episodes ago she pulled it out of her suitcase - time for the writer to tell us how she obtained the ring.

If he was having an affair, they wouldn't give us all of these ambiguous "hints". So, no - he is not cheating. He loves his children and grand-child.

AND, he knows - or suspects - more than anyone else - including the viewer. the "family "ring" was in one of those boxes! That's why he kept looking at the box!

If he was a villain or cheater, Yi-na would have known by now. Meaning, after Seven years of living with a grandfather who she trusts and has treated her with affection and concern time and time again? And who she can "hear" his thoughts occasionally (or, writers going to try and convince us that in those seven years, she never once - Never Once - saw his possibly "nefarious" thoughts)??

Pffffttttt. If that happens, this drama is worth about . . ..1/2 ⭐

If Grandfather was the villain then why didn't Yi-na figure that out long ago????

in fact, Yi-na trusts him more than anyone else (he was the 1st person she tried to call when "Uncle" was stalking her).

Thus far, writers have been straight with the viewer - there is more to be revealed, of course, but no reason to believe that he wished to harm his son, granddaughter and daughter-in-law.

I believe it was an accident because the mother screamed (in the first flashback) as the car went over the barrier. That's not the reaction of someone acting intentionally.

It's still not clear what Yi-na "heard" when her eyes turned blue. In today's episode, her mother was speaking while well inside the tunnel. I re-watched again - her eyes didn't turn blue in today's episode and they didn't show the eyes-in-the-mirror sequence. Which may be a mistake by director OR we are still missing a few seconds??

Perhaps we will find out that Yi-na's eyesight was damaged during the accident (the white flash?) because there wasn't any indication that she was squinting or having trouble looking into the front of the car.

I'm lowering my rating for the show, but if the cliffhanger in Episode 8 provides an awesome surprise, I'll reconsider.

I don't like the romance. Do-hae as "magical" cure for everything that ailed the family is a farce. A family that is supposedly suffering from various disorders (physical and mental) needs help, not hocus-pocus. However, IF the writers eventually come around to that point - namely that there are no magic cures for these disorders, then I'll move rating back up.

And I will definitely move it up if Father Soon Gu turns out to be the real hero of the show.

Best line today: Yi-na to Grandmother: "you're a thief too."

Perhaps "Mom" has something on her as well. In a prior episode, she talked about how she wanted to be an actress, but her only value was her body - her so-called mother prostituted her out. I think the same for Uncle.

However, the made-up family of crooks acts more like a family than the super-power family. They protect each other, look out for each other, eat together.

The writer made it clear today - the two really "evil" (heartless) characters are the two mothers.

Honestly, this couple does nothing for me. It's not the actors - it's the script. His stalker behavior in Episode 6th was kind of the last straw for me.

But, I find all of the other characters interesting - there is still more to learn about most of them.

No. If they wanted to shock the viewer with that plot twist, they wouldn't telegraph it. But I admit, I want to know more about his story and history than I care about the main couple who are boring in their collective misery/guilt.

I think Grandpa Soon Gu is trying to figure out how there could be two rings - the one in the ring box (which we have not yet seen) and the one that Do Hae had. Or, perhaps he has suspicions and asked someone to meet him.

Well., . . that's my guess. 😎

He lied to his parents about her background. He thought he was protecting her - but she thought he was ashamed of her. Rather contrived - but that's the story. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Depression and/or PTSD comes in all shapes and sizes. Dr. Slump was actually a very realistic reflection of how they may manifest from one human to another. Dr. Slump also portrayed individuals who sought help - counseling/therapy, accepted the diagnosis, and over time - quite a few months - were able to heal. With the help of professionals.

I enjoy this drama except for the ML. He neglected his wife and baby girl for 6 years. There is no indication that he sought help. Then for another 7 years, he literally abandoned his daughter. The drama began with him evidencing all signs of alcoholism but suddenly he simply stops? w/no withdrawal symptoms? Total Garbage. And still. . . no counseling/therapy or attempt to get better? Oh, right - he's beginning to "heal" because of some mumbo-jumbo, hocus-pocus there is only one person who can heal me diagnosis.

Mentally Ill - but Insta Cure? No Thanks - it is totally unrealistic, but that's why this drama is called a "fantasy" whereas Dr. Slump was labeled "healing".

MDL is wrong - Moon Joo Win (actor)should be listed as "support" role - I have twice submitted the information to MDL but they haven't changed it. Same for Kim Soo In (actress who plays classmate). Both are listed in the credits with the other main and supporting cast which means they will be in most, if not all, episodes.

You don't need to use the spoiler tag for anything that is already public on MDL. 😊

Actually, she also has a bond with her grandfather - he was the 1st person she tried to reach when she was being followed. She came down to blow out the candles because he asked her to.

If her grandfather turns out to be some sort of bad person, I'll be pretty upset because after 7 years, she would have been able to read his mind from time to time and know his true personality.

As far as I'm concerned, NOTHING will ever explain why they can interact with each other. Bro saved her in the past/yellow door mumbo-jumbo hocus pocus would be lazy writing. But right now that's where writer-nim is taking us.
