Agree with you that it doesn't need a S2

😆😆😆. I did say it was an unpopular opinion

My qualms with the mistress is that she's mad the wife isn't grieving as much as she thinks she should. FFS, it pisses me so much. The audacity, just because she has a child.

I have an unpopular opinion.
I would have appreciated the intense and palpable yearning of our leads more than them actually acting on their feelings. This is a political drama, kissing just seems off to me. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely do not mind it, but I'd have liked it better if they just yearned maybe till the end of the drama before acting on those feelings.

Think of it this way. The world is about to end or is ending. There's very little you can do at this point. You could decide to spend those last hours with your lover, family, etc. People tend to seek comfort in these moments. I guess it's just you but it did make sense

I'm here to rant. Episode 5, 08:55. Trust a man to always fuck it up. I'm not even surprised but Why is "the other woman" being angry and blaming the actual legal wife for not grieving as much as she thinks she should? I'm so mad at the turn this plot is taking. This was supposed to be about Seo Munju, no? OMG!!!

Even Yumi's cells S1, she's the female bestie that comes between Go Eun and her man. Didn't like her there, don't like her here either.

You just reminded me of "Interest of Love". Yeah, some themes are similar

I don't know about any other person, but I wasn't pleased about that casting choice. Not the Shin Soonrok I imagined. I do hope he makes me eat my words, I really love Yumi's cells

Thank you for your comment. You summed up very succinctly my whole thoughts about their friendship.

The root of the romance and love triangle made sense in that they didn't just arbitrarily fall in love with the same man. There was a story, a connection there, which is the trauma from SY's brother. His shared name and hobby is what brought their paths to cross and I respect that. Which is why I'm not mad about the love triangle. I also like how it was handled in the university days. You couldn't definitively point accusing fingers at SY, rather it was Sang-hak who got swayed. The plot got frustrating in their 30s

Exactly. Not because you don't fully trust them, but because you don't want a situation where it can happen. There's a bible verse that comes to mind in these scenarios "flee from every appearance of evil". It doesn't say flee from evil, but the appearance of it.

Honestly, I saw it coming. But I was still shocked when it actually happened. Do I think his death was unnecessary? No. Trauma surrounding his death is what brought about the supposed triangle between KSH, REJ and CSY, and furthers the hate and mixed feelings these two women had for each other. They could have done away with the love plot when they left Uni though

I cried in the last two episodes, like throat-choking nose-blocking tears. IRL, I would never tolerate a friend like Sang Yeon, would've cut off since University. But this drama shows how magnetic these women felt towards each other. Despite common sense, Eunjoong still considered SY her friend. It wasn't just mere friendship. There was adoration, despair, hate, love.

This is definitely not about a man. It is about the two women.

She wasn't freaked out to find that her brother was in fact her 'sister'. She was just really sad and shocked to find out the real reason for his death. Remember she blamed herself for it.

I'm sorry you feel that way about the characters. I'm saying sorry because I can't fathom that you weren't able to understand the characters. They were complex, gray yet colourful.

My God! Thank you! Multiple times in scenes with Eunjoong and her mother, I kept asking "where is her younger brother?"

My qualms is in how he handled the situation. He was avoidant. Sure he could be conflicted but all he had to say was "I'm beginning to get curious about this person. I don't know yet what it means for me and you".
He went from 100 for YiDo to basically 0 in a matter of hours, after one conversation? And suddenly he wants "marry" JiYeon (his own words) the next day?
Maybe the editing misguided us but it just felt off.

You've expressed my sentiments exactly. I thought ep 7 was hard to watch for YiDo, but ep 8 was even worse. I hate that she's blaming herself and trying to fix things with Jeongmok. She's such a bubbly person you can see, but she isn't handling the gray area well. As for Jeongmok, I agree that feelings could change but his earlier reason about their family backgrounds being different seems like a shallow excuse now. JiYeon is such a strong person and I can't have ill feelings for her so if they both feel the same way about each other I guess I wish them well.

A lot of conversations didn't go down well. Why is it so hard for people to be honest about their feelings, and their sentiments towards each other.

Lastly, where are Minji and Seungchan? They barely have any screen time.
