Victim mentality. She weaponized her trauma to justified whatever she is doing right now. What happened to her husband was nobody fault as it was an accident and she choose the worst way to deal with it. Go to therapy if you need to but don't push your trauma into others just to fell better about yourself.

Personally, this behavior really trigger me. It was the same in "My Dearest Nemesis" with Grandma blaming her Grandson about his parent death. Completely unjustified. Years of abuse. And she still get "forgiven" in the end. Hope this time, this character will get her karma back.

Like most, I preferred season 1. It wasn't even nostalgia as I watched it 2 weeks ago (as I discovered it when I heard of the season 2). I loved ML in the first season as he always seemed to have 2-3 step in advances everytime like everyone was playing Chess but him was playing 3D Chess. Here ? He lost most of his aura.

I also hated the character growth of the antagonist or the lack of tbh. I was kinda rooting for him in the first half but when he killed FL's Brother I knew it was over and it would just be the typical antagonist. Except he didn't have the charisma. So in the end, the main antagonist was a child throwing a tantrum.

Anyway, I still somewhat enjoyed it. If I gave a 8.5 for the first season, this one deserve a 6.5. Watch it only if you really miss the former cast and lowered your expectation.

Yeah I also didn't really understand the purpose of the final twist. First of all, her being the doppelganger of her mother was very unrealistic. And the fact that we never saw them and everything was resolved off screen was very unsatisfying. I would have liked seeing her confronting her mother at least. But as none of that happened it just seemed very unnecessary.

Otherwise, I really enjoyed this drama.

Technically & literally are kind of synonym in this matter. As technically - meaning strictly speaking - Jira forfeit his right on his art piece the moment he sold it - like it would happen when you sold a design or blueprint - and Koh have complete freedom at how he can use it. He can burn it if he wanted to for example.

But ethically & morally, it was wrong. Very much so.

It isn't like buying a mug. A painting is considered a unique piece. It's similar as buying the design of the mug for example. That + the law & right when it come to AI is basically non existent at this point. It will sure change in the future as AI progress at a impressive pace but the law lag behind for now.

So yeah, it's basically a lawless sector right now and it does spark heavy debate & controversy.

I just have one tiny issue with this: they made it seem like it was too easy for all the foreshadowing they build up. Her saying "I will only do it when I'm ready or good enough" & her leaving temporary her law firm like it would be a huge deal and... We just had a montage when she talk to two peoples and win the case. For example it would have been better if she left her law firm before the 1-year time skip because here it just seems she did it in less than a week. :P

She is in a novel so the ML in the book wouldn't have a older version in the real world - or any characters for the matter like her BFF. But we do know that ML exist in her world as he was the buyer of the streaming company she was working at. And he did seem to know her. So he is either a long time fan of her stream or "future" novel's ML that got transported into reality to reunite with her after she left the novel.

Well, she didn't come back for the kid. She come back for the piece of land inherited by her father's death. Based on the preview of ep. 9, Seon Han Gyeol will reconnected with her on his own and she will welcome it.

Based only on those fact, as it was her son's initiative, I cannot blame her (even if I really want to tbh) BUT the moment she try to use him to get this land, I will go full scorched earth mode.

Yeah... no. It just doesn't work for me. The acting & directing is awkward. The writing itself is quite bland... I even suspect it to be writing by AI. I guess I will just pass on this one for now. Maybe comeback when it's finished to see the finale general opinion but I doubt it.

But I did like the main OST. And the Peach Trivia weirdly enough. :P

Oh it's him again. Did he had two projects back to back or was it one of his shelved project that came back to life ? :O

I personally like their approach with this story. Usually, J-Drama are more focused at how they fall in love and the ending is basically the confession & them finally becoming a "official" couple. Here it feel more natural or organic. They like each other and just decided to start dating like it would happen IRL.

So yeah it isn't some Epic Love Story, hilarious Rom-Com or Tragic Bittersweet Romance with Trauma as Seasoning but just two very young & clumsy peoples discovering each other as they date with some more mundane baggage they will learn to deal with.

It feel almost like a slice of life. It feel very fresh & comfy. Some found them "boring", but personally they always make me feel good. :)

What's more, he get rewarded. I was afraid that he would really lose his career by revealing the actual truth.

He does get better. And finally listen & collaborate to his lawyer near the end. :)

Well that was a bold choice... Not really a fan but I can "accept" it. Still hope we will have a fantasy tag added for the last episode. :P

BUT Than's reaction to the "reveal" was so anti climatic... He just accepted it like it was nothing. IDK about you but if my significant other mistrust me this much + hided the fact that I had a child - even if it wasn't the case - I wouldn't want him in my life anymore. It's just wrong in so many level.

At least, Than should be disappointed or mad. But they even double down with him saying "You're friend just tried to protect you in their own way. They loved you". I can't. It's AI writing at this point.

Nah, I will probably don't even bother watching the final episode. This drama was a real disappointment for me.

Ngl, at first I believed it was just a "joke" where he misunderstood the situation and Don would just show up with a bandage on his head with a "WTF are you doing ?". I'm still waiting btw...

Personally, I like him. Not that I ship him with FL but the story between him and ML seems interesting and I like their "Brain Vs. Brawn" dynamic between them. It just happen he is also "That one character that make the ML jealous" like Han Gyeol's mom (?) did for FL. I wouldn't even consider him as a SML for now as he doesn't have that much interaction with FL to begin with.

It doesn't trigger me as much but yeah, it's something I always notice with those scenes. It's probably cultural - not that they all sleep with light on but how they film those scene - so it's quite odd for us.

I don't really understand the logic behind but it doesn't matter much. ^^

Well... Don't know how to think of this yet. Let's be honest, the first episode was literally soft porn. Based on the trailer, we will get a story so it's fine but what's worry me is that the writing & directing seems to have issue.

For the writing, I should probably blame those subtitles. They are clearly poorly made. But the dialogue themselves felt stiff - especially with those weird long pause between each line.

But anyway, 2/3 of this episode was NC content so I will hold my judgement (... But I personally lowered greatly my expectation mainly because of those subtitles).

I cannot understand how you could found her "old" so my only guess is that it's your own reflection. :P

Typical of abused children. Even when they grow up, they are still "under" their abuser influence.
