Yeah, probably. TBH, I didn't think too much on that. After all, the two siblings are quite close. Plus, according to Jihyuk, his stepmother treats him like he's her own son. So it doesn't look like they care whether or not they're blood related. They just accepted each other as family.

16 is a good number, imo. After all, things didn't really go downhill for the Minhwan and Soomin until after they got married, and now that it's confirmed that Yura will be written into the series, I doubt they can wrap everything up in 12 episodes.

I haven't read the novel, but I read on AKP that Oh Yura is a villain who has a privileged upbringing, and was arranged to marry Jihyuk. I don't know how they're going to write her character into the series, though, since there are only six episodes left. Frankly, I would've thought Minhwan/Soomin are enough for antagonists.

In the webtoon, Jihyuk said his mother died when he was just a child, and his father later married Cha Geumran, who's one of the regional directors of U&K. There're two ways to explain this. 1) In one translation, Heeyeon is Cha Geumran's daughter from a previous relationship/marriage, because Jihyuk said he got a stepmother and stepsister when his father remarried. 2) In another translation, Heeyeon was born after his father remarried, which would make them half-siblings. The only clear fact is that Cha Geumran is Heeyeon's biological mother, but there's not much information about who her biological father is.

In the webtoon, there was a confrontation between Yang Jooran and her cheating husband, resulting in an altercation that landed her at the hospital (or something along that line). There, the doctor gave her a full body checkup and they found a tumor. However, since it was in the early stages and they caught it early, they were able to operate on it right away.

Personally, I don't think Jiwon passed it onto her. Jooran was already stressed with work, raising her daughter, and dealing with her cheating husband. Also, Jiwon was with Jooran when she confronted her husband. If she wasn't there, she wouldn't be able to take Jooran to the hospital, and she wouldn't have gotten that checkup. However, Jiwon blamed herself because she thought she'd passed it onto Jooran by trying to change her fate. She thought it would be passed on to Soomin.

Lol they did. Na In-woo is about 6'2" and Park Min-young is about 5'4". In the BTS, you can see her wearing platform shoes AND standing on a step-up stool. It's pretty funny, and the actors got a good laugh out of it.

So true. I thought Lim Jiyeon played an incredible villainess in The Glory, but Song Hayoon's acting in this series could rival that. I sure hope she gets more recognition after this series.

Yeah, that's messed up. However, she hated that Jiwon lost a parent just like her, yet she was happy because her father really loved her and stepped up to made sure she was well taken care of, while Soomin's mom treated her like sh*t. Obviously, she should be hating on Jiwon's mother, but since she couldn't do that, she projected that hatred onto Jiwon. It doesn't make sense, but I guess with people like Soomin, you can't really use logic to understand her action.

I'm not sure. Her character in the TV series doesn't look as innocent as in the webtoon, and she's more manipulative, but the self-absorbed personality is still there.

I think the obsession you mentioned is less about obsessed over Jiwon, and more about being obsessed with causing her pain and making her life as miserable as she can. In the webtoon, when Jiwon was sick with cancer, Soomin was pretending to care for her, and she said something like "the only person you need is me." It's not because she cares, but because she wanted to Jiwon to depend on her 100%. By isolating Jiwon from everyone, she can continue to manipulate Jiwon and the latter wouldn't suspect a thing. As a result, Jiwon didn't find out the truth until she was dying, and by then, it was too late.

With the lake scene, it was a test to see whether or not Jiwon still care enough to jump in and save her. Pretty twisted, but I honestly don't think Soomin wanted to die with her. She was determined to make Jiwon's life hell for as long as she can, and she can't do that if Jiwon is dead. That's why they didn't drown. It was just Soomin's way of reminding her that she still has control over her.

Of course, I could be wrong, since they made some changes in the drama, but the beauty of the TV series is that the characters' actions are open for interpretation.

Jiwon's mother had an affair with Soomin's dad and they ditched their respective families to be together. Soomin's mom became abusive, so Soomin had a miserable childhood. By coincidence, she wound up going to the same school as Jiwon and they became friends. She later found out the woman who stole her father was Jiwon's mom, and she became hellbent on revenge.

In the webtoon, there's a backstory on why Soomin is the way she is and why she did all of those things to Jiwon, but I don't know how much the TV series will cover that since there's only 6 episodes left.

There's something very satisfying with the way Department Head Lee recited his nicknames before banning them. I could feel him smirking from the screen. XD

That ice cream scene got me laughing so hard. Gotta love the two siblings. Episode 10 definitely did not disappoint, and I can't wait to see the drama that'll happen at Minhwan/Soomin's wedding.

Fanmeet? Concert? Special episode? Never-seen-before footage?

I'd love to see them in another series, but I know they both want to be more versatile and not limit themselves to only doing BL series. That being said, I'm sure they'll return when a good project comes up.

More like, IN YOUR FACE, AHJUMMA!

I smiled so hard at that final scene! It wasn't in the webtoon so I'm so happy they added that into the tv series. Kang Jiwon hwaiting!!!!

I get what you mean. I think Thailand productions are beginning to understand the importance of international viewerships and bring their shows into the 21st century. They're learning, abeit slowly, but just looking at the dramas (BL/GL/BG) and you can tell they're trying. That's huge for a traditional country such as Thailand.

In North America and European countries, police dramas tend to be more realistic. Like, they're ordinary cops/detectives going about their jobs, while dealing with the problems in the personal lives. It feels real and relatable, yet some may find them boring since they might not find the characters interesting.

Then you have Asian countries, where the police are either portrayed as invincible heroes with an IQ of 180 or they're strong enough to take down ten people at once, or idiots who messes up the investigation and make things difficult for the lead characters. It's only in recent years that some countries start to copy western countries and even adapt some of their shows, but Thailand seems to be slow on following the trend.

Of course, these are just my observation. While I don't think it's fair to compare Thai dramas with Korean dramas since their styles are completely different, I get what you mean. Thailand seems to still be trying to balance between pleasing international viewers while keeping their roots.

Always watch the uncut version
