I definitely missed the part where she was throwing away her diplomas, so thanks for pointing that out.
I understood what you were talking about; I was moreso confused by your second paragraph due to not understanding how it addressed what I was talking about. I was referring to the *way* it brought up towards the end of one of the episodes. There is no actual foreshadowing to that event; it was abrupt. Yes, there we are given information about his 'father', and his relation to Dani, but that didn't have any impact on how the scene was brought up. The scene would have been a lot more 'relevant' if we had actually gotten some meaningful screentime with the father beforehand, hinting towards that event, and if the entire event wasn't just brushed off a couple of episodes later. There was *a lot* of emphasis on that scene, but it wasn't half as important as it was made out to be.

Her application was submitted as highschool graduate; that pretty much suggests a lack of professional experience//desired skills in particular work fields. If it was mentioned that she was accomplished and had awards under her name in the beginning, then I stand corrected. Could you point to a time stamp where it mentions this? I definitely must have missed it.
As for Eunho's father, there weren't any hints thrown to situation when Eunho rushes to his father and weeps. It's hardly even acknowledged afterwards, and much less so by Dani who's barely aware of the situation. I... didn't really quite understand the rest of what you were saying in the second paragraph, so I apologize for that, but if I missed something there as well in regards to his father, then I retract my statement.
You do make a good point about developing the characters around Dani; I personally wouldn't have preferred Ms. Go retreating back to her former after being opened up to Dani, but I'll wait to see how that plays out.
I feel like the directing in this drama kind of lacks. There is no clever foreshadowing, or rather a lack of foreshadowing…
The whole situation with Eunho's father and Dani's application were really random and felt way too out of the blue in tone with the rest of the story. The former almost completely unnecessary and not adding any depth to the story or Eunho.
The latter, while it can bring about more depth to Dani viewers were unaware of previously-- how it was brought up was so sudden and misaligned with her character thus far. She was portrayed as not having any apparent remarkable skills, hitting rock bottom in life, but then getting back on her feet and working her way back up through mostly sheer determination and effort. But then the drama's like nope, jk, she was actually this amazing person this entire time pretending she didn't know anything. It kind of detracts from the genuity of her character we were supposedly drawn to.
I feel like the directing in this drama kind of lacks. There is no clever foreshadowing, or rather a lack of foreshadowing altogether for pretty key moments in the drama. They just hit us with some events out of nowhere, and I'm kind of just questioning where it came from, and was it added just to create conflicts on a whim. (I'll post examples in spoiler)
Overall I still really like this drama and its characters, but that's just a tiny gripe I had.
On a side note, I was finally starting to feel for Ms. Go, and then she just has to..ugh.
So excited! I know it won't be the same without the old cast, but I think this cast has the potential to deliver the comedy we so loved in the first season!
Dani deserves better
