The whole sleeping with his wife was never explicitly stated. He jumped to conclusions and the wife never said that's what actually happened, I don't believe any of that was the truth or real. I do think them even filming the scene was gross albeit, but I believe it's supposed to be a figment of his imagination run wild like Heo has been doing this while time.
And Heo isn't supposed to be a good person, that's the whole point. He wants the gossip on his rival, so that's why he continues to listen to the whole story without a second thought.
Another show with a FL having an obsession with an idol in an unhealthy manner. I don't understand why people keep watching this stuff. A lot of it is the reason idols and actors lives are miserable, always feeling suffocated and can't date or be who they want to be. They make it look as if it's okay to be overwhelmingly obsessed.
Does anyone know why Lee Kang was specifically attracted towards Se huns mother? It seemed like a big part of…
Thank you, this explanation helped me a lot. I totally got it now. I think I was so weirded out by that plot point I overlooked why it was there in the first place, but that makes 100% sense and is no different than everything else being purposely fake and jabs against Heo.
I have a question for those who are knowledgeable of the play, hopefully someone can help!:
Does anyone know why Lee Kang was specifically attracted towards Se huns mother? It seemed like a big part of his character besides being envious of the family itself/wanting a mother. I thought they would explain that part so we'd know why, was there something in the original play that explained this?
After seeing a handful of people's explanations and theories, I tend to agree. The motive must've been to imbed a jealousy in Heo, same as describing seeing Eunjoo and Se hun being intimate, so he could mess with heos wife and their relationship later on and make him angry plain and simple because he liked Eunjoo. Got it! haha
I'm beginning to think this is a very Niche type of show that only appeals to a smaller group of people. Genuinely shocked there's minimal discussion surrounding it. This is not something to be missed or go under the radar I can say that much.
I am kind of shocked at the low rating. Like I love me a good romcom don't get me wrong, but this was ART, this…
I feel the same way. I waited a couple of days before binging due to being busy, but when I saw the score hadn't gone up after that period of time and still only 9K viewers for something with such high profile actors in it, I was expecting something mediocre. Instead I was pleasantly surprised at how well done it was. This was definitely the word you described it as, Cinema. There was a seriousness that the story was handled with that really gripped me, more than most Kdramas. The crew definitely put their hard work into this project and gave it their all. Lazy is the furthest thing from this show in my opinion.
Ok, out of all the disappointments with Kdramas recently, this was AMAZING! I don't care if the ending should've…
On a less spoiler note -
Go watch it!
9 from me, i'd rewatch in a heartbeat. I honestly feel a show like this requires multiple viewings too, so it's worth a watch for that alone in the sense that I'd even consider watching it again so quickly. Choi Hyun Wook did so so well, I knew it would at least be decent since he seems to be really great at picking projects.
Hats off for them pulling off a Play very well. I need more psychological thrillers in my life that are actually psychological and not just thrillers with that tag. This scratched the itch.
Don't hesitate, this is one of those that's actually worth it and deserves so much praise - and if you don't like it, there's only 6 episodes so it won't feel like a complete waste of your time.
Everything comes together perfectly, it's high budget and there's top tier acting from the whole cast. Enjoyed the heck out of this one.
Ok, out of all the disappointments with Kdramas recently, this was AMAZING! I don't care if the ending should've had a bit more explanation on how he decided where to draw certain events from and twist them, like if he really did live at their house and all, but this was freakin awesome. I don't have that many problems with it and it was just right up my alley. I haven't read the play itself due to not wanting to know spoilers ahead of time, but I love when twists are pulled off correctly like this was. I guessed a couple of different outcomes (wasn't sure if murdering anyone would actually come into play), but I'm completely satisfied with how it ended, even if nobody actually was harmed. The injury was pure Psychological torture to Mr Heo. Loved it! And now Lee Gang has a story from real life events to write about to screw with him for fun, just like he did towards him when he was young. Best possible ending that made me smile in a devious manner haha
Yes, his character is an absolute beauty. I loved him. And I've never seen Uncanny Counter so I can't compare…
Awesome! That's great to hear, maybe I'll try this then.
His character in Uncanny Counter was so good he won a Scene Stealer award, which he really does deserve. He had quite a bit of screentime there, so I'm happy he also got quite a bit in this one too.
And Heo isn't supposed to be a good person, that's the whole point. He wants the gossip on his rival, so that's why he continues to listen to the whole story without a second thought.
You can be a fan, but they never stay just a fan.
