All of the family members owned significant (2-5%) of stock in Queens Group, so that's why they were on the no-fly list.

I thought Episode 15 was great - I was afraid they would stretch out Hae-in's memory loss into Episode 16. Hated the prison scene, but at least it served a purpose when she was able to read her notebook.

There's nothing secret about it - it's been shown several times that he is working with Hyun-woo to destroy Eun-seong.

If you skipped all of the scenes involving the corporate battle then you missed the part about Uncle forming a company called "Ever H" (the "H" presumably for "Hong") = a company that was buying up shares of Queens Group as the stock price plummeted after Hae-in turned against Eun-seong at the press conference. He's been working with Hyun-woo all along - perhaps for years.

Eun-seong is the "General Partner" of the various major stockholders (some of which are shell companies) and they are unhappy that the stock is plummeting. Many of the Limited Partners want Uncle Beom-seok to take over as GP.

In the preview for Episode 16, there is a brief flashback to the time the Hong family visited the orphanage. I have been waiting and waiting for that flashback because I'm convinced Uncle Beom-seok was there (the man in glasses who rushed to Hae-in when she fell) and somehow we will learn about why Moh sent her son off to the United States a few months later.

Which ratings? They broke all tvN ratings. They broke CLOY ratings for Episode 14.

It will be hard to beat the current top 2: (i)"World of the Married" (something I've never heard of but I guess it is ultimate King Kong/Godzilla ratings King) and (2)" Reborn Rich'

If I am wrong, don't kill me, but according to the tvN schedule for Sunday, Episode 16 will be 1 hour, 40 minutes.

Episode 15 is 1 hour 30 minutes.

The first 10 minutes are always commercials so it's possible (but unlikely) that tvN will make viewers suffer through more than 10 minutes of commercials in the beginning.

In terms of Netflix release: it's usually 30 minutes after the drama ends.

So, Saturday, drama ends at 10:50 (KST)

Sunday, drama ends at 11:00 pm (KST).

One final weekend of me getting up at the crack of dawn to watch when Netflix releases. And it is worth every minute!

She is definitely back to classic Hae-in. Cool, business-like, taking notes on "this guy", and rationalizing why it's okay to be curious about him - to see if he does anything "strange" [or "weird"]" again.

I posted the dub version above.

She's taking notes on him. Notes that he has a sweet family relationship. does he like tofu - or not - she likes it, does he hate it? 😊

at the end, each one of them repeats the same phrase to their family/Na - but I couldn't catch it.

She's not stalking - she's just try to follow and see if he does anything weird again.

After yesterday's awful pre-release, at least they are giving viewers hope that hyun-woo won't be stuck in prison very long.

Episode 15 pre-release

I didn't see the English translation/dub below, but this might be a repeat.

Well, if he's threatening Hae-in's life, then a sniper shot to the eye would be right down Hyun-woo's lane.

I will be shocked if we don't see some sort of physical battle between the two - it was foreshadowed in Episode 2 when they were pointing their rifles at each other - and then again, when ES pointed at HW in Episode 3 and said - with a smile - "Oh, I almost shot you again".

Once we found out he killed a man (not just a dog), he was past redemption. Eun-seong said that he won't stop pursuing Hae-in until he dies - and Hyun-woo is the man to put ES out of his misery. 😊

Before the big finale weekend, I updated the following topic discussions - each of which include info on timelines, dates, Mad Moh's body count (suspect and confirmed), etc. Both contain spoilers through Ep. 14

My Crazy Theory about Eun-seong's Father

Please don't - the honor of killing Eun Seong belongs to Hyun-woo. 😊

The SML is a sociopath - but the FL makes it clear that she has no interest in him. There is no triangle in the classic sense of the FL going back and forth between two guys. He's really rotten and if writers do it right, he will be dead by the end of the drama.

If you don't find the end of episode 2 to be absolutely epic, then you might not enjoy the drama but that' when I was hooked. 😊

No way. He promised to always be by her side. What are people thinking???

I'm a bit worried about Hae-in's vision of the elderly man bringing flowers to a grave - when she was on her honeymoon. But, if it's a harbinger of the future, it is decades in the future - and HE is the one alive.

Hmmmm, haven't paid too much attention but predict he saves Da-hye from the bad guys and they live happily ever after. He is a fun, oddball character but my gosh, I was hoping he would grow a brain, but perhaps finding courage is the true mark of a hero. So, prediction: Hero, happy life with Da-hye and more kids.

As I type this, we are approximately 2.5 days (~60 hours) from discovering/learning the entire story and final end. 😊

I hate to admit it, but the numerous cliffhangers of kisses/divorce ultimatums/kisses/Eun-snake - this IS a soap opera.

I like the romance, but I love the dual family dynamics and corporate/family battles (which Hyun-woo will win, of course). In a soap opera, the villains always rise again. In this drama, Madwoman Moh and her son Eun-snake are toast. Perhaps literally in the case of Moh (I can't help but envision her torching the home and burning up [toast]) and figuratively (Eun-seong) who will die at Hyun-woo's hand. Hopefully with a sniper kill shot because I have been wanting that ever since Episode 2. 😊

It usually drops around 8:00 am KST (use a time zone converter to determine the time for your location). It's Thursday, Saturday and sometimes Sunday morning in KOREA. It's 4:00 pm in my time zone - the day before, lol.

Example: 8:00 am thursday morning is 4:00 wednesday afternoon for me.

I'm making a list of predictions for many of the characters and for Grace I think Madwoman Moh will die before she releases the money in Grace's account. 🤣🤣
