So, I Dol I is over. I honestly loved the chemistry between Se Na (Choi Sooyoung) and Ra Ik (Kim Jae Yeong), but damn… episode 11 was **fatal** for the drama. On top of that, we’re not even told that Hye Joo was helped in the final episodes — the show makes it seem like she did everything on her own, and that the Seoul police (yes, **Seoul**, not some tiny town of 500 people) couldn’t find any fingerprints or even the dropped piercing.
Honestly, it’s completely incomprehensible, and I have no idea what was going on in the writer’s head. For me, this drama gets a 6.5/10.
I've just discovered a new passion: watching Neo Hou get out of his van and arrive at the film studio every day wearing a new outfit. When I try to find out what he's wearing most of the time, it's way too expensive, lol. Neo Hou has so many outfits.
Am I the only one who’s literally disappointed by this drama? It was originally supposed to come out in 2025, we got it in 2026… and *this* is what we get??? I feel like I’m watching a drama filmed in 2016 with a 2016-style plot. Nothing works—the way it’s filmed, the overall vibe—it honestly doesn’t feel like a 2026 drama at all.
Park Shin Hye has been absolutely incredible since *The Judge From Hell*. Honestly, I adore her. I’ve watched her growth year after year, and she truly impresses me. I think *TJFH* will remain my favorite drama of hers.
Episode 11 literally killed this K-drama. I would have even preferred to hear that it was the CEO. Damn, the Seoul Police can't find any fingerprints or clues 😂😂. Damn, why did they have to kill the drama like that?
We're meant to believe either Hye Joo did a professional level job cleaning up that crime scene OR the crime scene…
I completely agree with you. Honestly, it was so absurd when I found out it was her, all by herself, who did it. On top of that, she cleaned the place like an amateur… and the piercing? They didn’t even find it at the crime scene 😂😂😂. They cleaned the entire house but somehow didn’t find the piercing to run any tests. Honestly, there are so many inconsistencies in this drama, it’s just crazy. And like you, if I don’t find out that her father was pulling the strings to help her, my rating honestly won’t be higher than a 6.
Why is it considered a surprise that he agreed to play in season 2?? It was literally 99% certain. Of course nothing is ever 100% sure, that’s why I say 99%, but they still haven’t started filming? He was discharged on December 20, and it’s been more than a month already — I honestly don’t get it. Normally, the locations, actors, and everything else should have been ready a long time ago. So we’ll probably get it around November–December 2026.
After 11 episodes, we finally know who the culprit is. Honestly, at first I thought it was the manager, but later my three main suspects were: the manager Hye Joo Hye Joo’s father. To be honest, finding out that it was Hye Joo who did it all by himself was a bit disappointing. I would have preferred it to be someone we didn’t suspect at all, so we’d be genuinely surprised. Instead, I literally had zero facial reaction when I learned the truth. I was right in thinking that Jae Hee’s accident and Woo Seong’s murder were committed by the same person.
What the heck was that kiss 😂😭Like, I don't know why the kiss had to be like that, but even if it was uncomfortable…
The kiss is consistent with ML's character. It would be really weird for him, being shy, to start kissing her passionately for 10 minutes. There will surely be one.
Yes, exactly, you can really see that she still lacks experience, and again, I would say that this is more of a web drama than a drama. It could easily be shown on a platform like YouTube. Given that she is well known, I think that sooner or later she will have a leading role in a romantic drama.
I just watched the two episodes before tomorrow's episode, and I like that it's lighthearted and cool, and they're both so cute. Finally, it's nice to see Hyweon in a different role than the bully, but I'm really afraid of how things will end between them.
Listen to me carefully, we're not ready yet for the performance that “Ryeoun” is about to deliver. He's a fabulous actor, he's so incredible at expressing sadness and crying.
I agree with this list but I'm adding Yeong Bin too just cause he's been on my list from the start. If I had to…
It’s quite a complex theory regarding Hye Joo’s father, but in any case it necessarily means that someone who knows the group perfectly is involved — the manager. Otherwise, how could the killer have gotten into Ra Ik’s place while he was drinking with Woo Seong? Only the two sasaengs had managed to find a way. I don’t even know what kind of apartment it is, but it looks like it belongs to the label. Actually, I even doubt that the manager has the keys — it seems like it’s Ra Ik’s apartment and that he’s the one who has the key. Damn, it’s so hard to know what really happened that night. I’m really afraid they’ll rush it and mess it up.
I agree with this list but I'm adding Yeong Bin too just cause he's been on my list from the start. If I had to…
I had completely forgotten about “Yeong Bin.” He’s very discreet, and it could very well be him. But then, is this really a solo act? Honestly, I rather think there are at least two people involved here. After that, why would he have done it? Out of jealousy, I suppose—maybe he’s always been sidelined?
Where I struggle to see it being him is that he doesn’t have the right attitude for it. He really comes across as someone shy and reserved. I would be very surprised if an actor with such a weak résumé could carry this kind of role.
Now, as for Hye Joo’s father—or even Hye Joo herself—the real question I keep asking myself is: what do they actually gain from killing the two group members? I try to find a motive, but I can’t, and that’s why from the very beginning I’ve been convinced that it’s the “manager.”
One of the best C-drama endings I've ever seen. Just incredible, thank you Lu Yuxiao and thank you Chen Xing Xu. Goodbye my dear “Love Between Lines.” Just a 10/10.
