it started off draggy for me, I paused midway in ep2 and only came back a couple of days ago and reached ep4, and a half. i find myself pausing mid ep cuz for me the 40-50 mark in any drama happens and I start losing interest

I'm not arguing, just stating my interpretation, it's exactly the same especially while binging🤣
I'll continue cuz I like the actors, but I can only like/care for at most 4 characters here

I did say "16eps of one hour and a half" is like being 24eps🤷‍♀️

Honestly the plot around the two leads is nice but this does not need “24” eps, ie 16eps of one and a half hours
Every other character feels like an afterthought to drag it out

I like the dynamics of the main couple, but one hour and thirty minutes? And so many side characters with their cheap makjang elements are a snooze🥱

Ironic how such a short drama can be so uneventful yet draggy😪

The plot sounds meh but Lee boyoung🥹 I even watched mine for her, tho that atleast had Kim seohyung eventho the plot was 🥱

The thing that was shocking was her killing that guy, the fake sister, the cheating husband, the revengeful son, the corrupt politician 😪
There’s nothing going on besides dragging all of that



In trolley the shock was that her sweet husband wasn’t just a cheater but also a rapist who hurt her good friend and kept tormenting her, I think 🤣

Unless something happens, with twists, imma drop this 😴
Everything is exactly what one would think from ep1, only one tho was different, but now it’s a boring circle which is sad cuz the cast are amazing but his became another “Trolley” which just means typical repetitive cheap makjang🥱

I’ve watched six eps and it is incredibly slow, to the point that everything was obvious in ep1 and yet many things are dragged out so thin it’s a wonder those secrets weren’t discovered 😴🤣

For the third case, it’d have been good plot twist to say reporter accidentally killed thinking he was already dead but he wasn’t and that he was paralyzed cuz of the dad’s poison

The pen and fish were 1000% evidence to criminalize the lawyer, especially her choosing to tell the truth, she didn’t know he was allergic, also her time frame was empty which shows a big plot hole in her murder which was sad

this was what it exactly promised to be, not too dramatic, and not too unrealistic, I loved the characters, and their friendship, it was not perfect, but it was perfect for me


I lowkey wanted to see their amusement park date🥺

This is exactly what it looks like, a webtoon made into a live action
The comedy, the nonsense, it comes from the world where everything is extremely comical

Idk tbh🤣 I had this on my ptw for a while cuz I’m a Kim kangwoo fan so I don’t remember if it was but I assumed it was🤣


I think the thing with the neighbor is a red herring, like she only saw the “not sister” leave and maybe leave the door open as she hurriedly left💁🏻‍♀️

I thought that was in the synopsis from the start🤣

lol it’s so funny once you put it all down, add that it’s the adoptive sister that’s cheating with the husband and boom you get every single makjang in history 🤣

This got boring the moment they added the repetitive cheating husband and it’s been going in a circle with minimum “twists” and they call it plot development 🥱

The dodgeball and the paintball game, all were games to throw someone under the bus to save themselves but our girls turning it around and making it the most heartwarming moments🥹😭

I heavily think it’s eunbyul that causes the fire, I’m the middle of the psychos she feels the scariest 🤣

The thing about this drama is that this isn’t another cheap bullying plot
Everyone isn’t black or white

In the midst of the bullying, they have an ever growing bond between the girls, unlikely friendships and interesting mind games
It’s not the betrayals, it’s the betrayals of betrayals, and beside the pyramid game they have other games, that become tests of friendship

I simply adore the girls, I love their weaknesses and strengths and I am a sucker for “underdogs turning flow of the game”🥹
It’s a makjang with teens mixed with slice of life and sismance in a great balance

The person in the picture isn’t the neighbor, it’s 100% yoori’s hair

He’s meeting the neighbor for something else

The assemblyman showed suho a car cam of their door
And it was such a big secret that Suho left the mystery around his son’s death until he got “stronger” or more clues

Now that cam was from a car or it was from the neighbor
And that’s why suho is meeting with her


The assemblyman could be the one who drove and used that guy to get away knowing “both” can get away without him tarnishing his reputation, and suho wants to expose that
But someone did open the door

So who opened the door the kid couldn’t?
why was Suho nervous like he was hiding someone that day?
It all points to yoori
