L13

Which doesn't make any sense because the presence of a unique chromosome should make DNA testing easier, not harder, but I went along with it for the story.

He's had two minutes of screen time and one line so far.

It absolutely is badly written and overacted and every rabid fangirl who thinks it's a masterpiece proves how easy it is to manipulate audiences with crude vibe markers instead of constructing an actual plot that makes sense and leads somewhere.

I'm still on episode 8 and all I have to say is that the leads are so hot together it's melting my brain. Cdramas NEVER get sexual tension right! What happened? Kudos to Ni Ni and Bai Yu for portraying their characters so well, but also to the scriptwriter for making Liuxi so cool. I can't think of any other contemporary Chinese actress who could have done justice to this character, except maybe Liu Yifei. They both have that queenly presence and smouldering gaze.

Right, but what does he do? Why is he interested in a different outcome from the other investors? We need to learn more.

Who da fuck is “Jayden”

For killing him in their past life, which she doesn't remember.

And I lap it up every time!

Isn't the FL supposed to be a firefighter? Why do the tags list both leads as students?

There seem to be a lot of moving parts in the premise of this drama and I guess I won't really know what it's about until I actually watch the first episode. But learning that the ML will want to take revenge on the FL at first made me intrigued.

OMG, episode 2 was even better than the first one! It kept adding layers of psychological nuance to the foundation of the first episode.

Mahiro and Kaori are both flawed and occasionally frustrating people—Kaori can be really self-absorbed and insensitive in her pursuit of the truth even when she thinks she's being empathetic and Mahiro is self-pitying and bitter yet can't stand up for herself—and this episode heightened the interpersonal tensions that come from that. At the same time, it showed us why they are the way they are and also highlighted their good sides; they're not bad people, or rather, they're trying to be good. And they both have a point re. the ethical disagreement between them.

If the first episode was about setting up the mystery of what happened to Sara, the second was about our main characters and why they see the incident from 15 years ago the way they do. We didn't get a lot of new information and Tateishi Rikito remains a total cipher. I hope we'll finally learn something about his motivations in episode 3.

Mahiro's boss is total trash and I hope her sensationalist script and the production studio pushing it on Kaori won't be a major plot point.

Finally, the little girl who played Mahiro in the flashback scene in episode 2 looks SO MUCH like her it's uncanny. Good job to the casting director!

OK, one last thing: Kaori's nightmare was really well done. It gave me an actual jumpscare.

Umm, PSH? He looks amazing here.

It does have a handsome oppa, though?

The anti-Japanese sentiment in Korea is much stronger and more racially targeted than the anti-German sentiment anywhere in Europe or even Israel nowadays. So it's not unreasonable to ask how palpable it is in this drama.

I also don't think the person you're responding to indicated they feel personally responsible for Japanese imperialism anywhere in their question.

I think it’s up to you to interpret that scene.

I'm afraid Myungjoon might be forced to choose between saving Heeae and betraying Rohee at some point in the drama. No one has threatened Heeae so far, but she's an obvious weak point for him and if the people after Rohee get sick of MJ beating up their goons they might just threaten Heeae to get him to cooperate.

I hate the thought of this plot development, but it makes too much sense IMO.

Are you kidding, Park Sunghoon looks better than ever in his emo leather jacket!

I think she may be the dead doctor's mistress, who was mentioned in a conversation between the camera repairman and the greasy doctor in ep. 4.

Right, she's super smart and I love those moments when MJ proposes something thoughtless and she counters with a reasoned counterargument that he clearly hadn't considered, but at the same time her determination to stick with him is fundamentally irrational. She's a child, so it makes sense; he's the first person she met after she lost her memory and she can sense he's a good man who will take care of her.

Is Hyeeun the dead Dr Choi's mistress? Was she lying about being HIV-positive? For some reason when she was opening up to Rohee and Myungjoon in the hospital, I felt like she was telling the truth about her disease, being part of a clinical trial, not wanting to expose Heeae, etc., but at the same time it felt like she was telling them all that to manipulate them and she's more involved with the case that she's letting on. She also seemed to have an idea of who might have paid Heeae's hospital fees when Myungjoon told her about that.

Also, seriously, her apartment is so nice? She seems to be working as a sales rep at a jewellery shop, which is a good job, but IDK if you can afford a nice modern apartment in Seoul on that salary alone. Fortunately for her, MJ is too slow to ask obvious questions about how suspicious she is.

What the hell, why is this drama so good! The end of episode 4 was so thrilling! The big picture is starting to come together little by little. Park Sunghoon remains mega dreamy in his emo all-black getup.
