It's just getting better with every episode. Im Si-Wan is hilariously bitchy, achingly vulnerable and hands-down adorable. And the female lead is killing it. I'm so enjoying this.

Okay, but he could be thinking that's she's someone in transition. Born female, but identifies as other. He recognizes the voice as feminine, he recognizes the lack of adam's apple, but if she identifies as other? Saying "Ahah! You were born female!" is offensive and serves no point. I think he's both attracted and repelled by her, but those are *his* feelings. Right now, she's got a job, and he has to stay in his lane. Even if everything in his life is off the rails.

I'm really enjoying this trope against trope tug of war. Yun I Jun's reaction every time he's losing in a war of words is super funny.

They keep deliberately playing with does he or does he not. A lot of scenes in the last 3 episodes have ML reactions/actions that could be read either way to support yes or no.

Funny as hell so far, but there's enough foreshadowing to indicate things can develop deeper. Both actors are killing it.

Predictable, except for Kim Young Wang. As the story progressed and his character shed the Cold C.E.O. trope, my thumb lifted from the fast forward button. I'd watched Trigger, and his character in this was so far from that--bottom line, the man's fascinating when he's a villain, and utterly adorable when he's a Geek.

Just. Excellent

Totally with you on that one. It would make sense of the dangling plot elements that always bothered me in the first series. There was always an undeveloped secret about Ji Woo's family and background. Why did he deliberately turn the bed-side family portrait face down when Sio Joon first moved in? What was he trying to hide? Why did that same photo suddenly turn face-up on their bed-side table when their relationship was on track at the end of the first series? Who actually learned authentic Italian cookery in the restaurant that folded? I always felt the writers were hinting it was really Ji Woo, not the creep who blackmailed Seo Joon. And why did Ji Woo have such an oversized reaction in the first series about being perceived as taking something for nothing? That was an oversized chip on his shoulder, and there has to be some reason for it. If all these questions tie back to what's happening in the second series, I'm going to have to applaud the writers. Laying down tracks of foreshadow like that, and knowing you're going to take a hit for it, but figuring that it will payback tenfold later....that's freaking gutsy.
