> Seon Young's family registry. We have been told that Su Ji is not on it, but Woo Ri and Doo Ri are.Yes. Suji's…
That's assuming the government is keeping a watchful eye for discrepancies and is pro-active, which is not in a lot of governments and gov agencies worldwide. (That's too much work for them.)
Also, that's assuming bio mom did check. But, as was revealed in the earlier episodes, she never checked her family registry. She just filed to add Uri and Duri, but did not request an updated copy. Hence, she had no idea until now that Suji was removed under her.
> Seon Young's family registry. We have been told that Su Ji is not on it, but Woo Ri and Doo Ri are.Yes. Suji's…
Like in almost every government agency, you have to file a separate request to get the latest copy. It would appear that she did not check at all, that's why she had no idea Suji was transferred.
You are saying that Woori is Yunja's son... wow... that's a very interesting twist. However, we all assume that…
Huh? Wait. I missed that. Which episode was it that she had an illegitimate son? From what I can recall, it was Nayoung's mom who had another child, she left in an adoption center, even Nayoung was aware of it and hated it whenever her mother talks about it.
Hmm… if E56 is any indication, it will be better for Suji not to know about her bio mom yet. It is best that she gets closer to her bio mom naturally and build their relationship. This way, by the time she learns the truth, and she should only learn it from her bio mom, she already have a good experience and memory with her. It will cancel out her resentment towards her, and be more willing to listen.
They won't even need to reveal the truth about Na Young's mom lying that she abandoned her and potentially died already. At least that will save Uri's face later once the truth about his bio mom surfaces.
If they learn that Na Young and Uri's mom lied and created all these mess, there's a risk it will take a serious toll on Suji and Uri, their relationship might end. It's better to keep that particular truth hidden for the sake of those two “kids”. The adults should carry that truth within them as “punishment” (if you will).
"If Suji said they broke up, they broke up. Was it not obvious that her ex-bf is a total douchebag? She blamed…
Yep! It's a strike. Bio mom will need to find a way to reconnect with Suji. She's too quick to judge Suji, and she kept on insisting that Suji's relationship with her ex-bf is not over yet. I mean, if the guy won't stop, that means their relationship is not totally done? And she has to consider the feelings of the other person? That's just so very wrong.
It seems she's thinking in the line of “divorce”. If her ex-bf won't stop, then to actually end it is to get a restraining order against the guy. Then she'll accept Suji's relationship with Uri. While logical, it's impractical, especially in her situation, the media will jump on her once they hear about it.
I guess this will be another frustrating drama with stupid near misses.Biggest problem with long dramas with thin…
I explained it before, there's a weekly theme, and the target audience are those who are stay-at-home. It is _not_ a “problem”, it is the perfect _format_ for their target audience.
Their target audience here are not people who watch 6, 12, 16, 24-episode series.
You could even include people who loves to read novels as part of their target audience, because they have no issues with this format. They actually expect multiple seasons too, and a total of 100 to 300 episodes.
I'd say, just enjoy it. It just so happen you are not part of their target audience.
I, for one, have no issues with it. I can watch the episodes at work at my leisure, without it taking too much of my time and break. So, for someone like me who go to work, this format is very beneficial. It's harder to watch the 1-hour format.
Anyway, daily dramas always have a weekly theme. Think of it as 2.5 episodes per week.
No one in the family knows what Yun Ja did except now NY? And NY seem disgusted. Wonder how the rest will react?
Well, stealing someone's husband/father, and then lying about abandonment, are things no one should ever cross.
Worst, “I did it for you”.
So, yep, Nayoung is “disgusted”. Her bio mom used her to justify what the two things she did. Basically, her mom is not taking responsibility for any of it, and is passing it on to Nayoung.
Unfortunately, Nayoung is like her mother. Instead of taking responsibility for her actions, she still continually blame Suji. It looks like she now included her mom in that blaming game of hers, but only slightly, she still blames Suji. If her mother didn't do anything, Suji won't interfere with her life, that's still her mindset.
I went through the comments and I don't understand why people think Suji and Uri will break up once they find…
In many countries, there is a law prohibiting legal siblings to have any romantic and sexual relationship. Any person's opinion doesn't matter when it is codified as a law. The State will never honour such a relationship, and the State can go after them if they want to or someone or some group decides to.
In SoKor, they have family registries.
Suji's bio mom will definitely fight to return Suji under her own family registry.
IF Uri's family registry was transferred under bio mom's registry, then Uri and Suji cannot marry. The State simply won't allow it, and society will not look kindly to such a union. People will look down on bio mom and the entire clan for allowing such.
Again, laws. Many countries have such laws. Regardless if you are disconnected by a million branches of the human family tree, if the law says no, it means no. And society generally follows after the law (the karens will talk about them if they pursue it).
There only few ways to get around it: 1. In SoKor, one of them has to transfer to another family registry. 2. In other countries, nullify the adoption. 3. In SoKor, the real bio child remains with their adopted family registry. 4. In other countries, the real bio child remains adopted. 5. If in case their parents are going to get married, their respective children should marry first before their parents get married. (This is rare, but there were cases like this.)
I have read many of the comments criticising Seon Young for-- Not looking for Su Ji sufficiently long or diligently…
> Seon Young's family registry. We have been told that Su Ji is not on it, but Woo Ri and Doo Ri are.
Yes. Suji's family registry was transferred by her bio father after they were led to believe that bio mom abandoned her.
> So was Su Ji still on the registry when Woo Ri and Doo Ri were added?
No. Uri and Duri came later, after bio mom recovered from her near-death accident.
> If not, why didn't she notice?
Didn't notice what?
> If she was still on it, when was she removed?
She was transferred after they were told a lie that she abandoned Suji. Her bio father more likely searched for her but no one can find her because she was in a near-death accident. If I remember correctly, she stayed at the hospital for a very long time. And the one who saved her eventually was Hyun Sung's father.
> And, why wasn't Seon Young informed of the change by the authorities?
Because no one can find her. She was in a near-death accident. She didn't have an ID. I think she also had an amnesia. And remained a Jane Doe for a very long time.
As far as the State is concerned, she's missing or dead, and there are no relatives to contact.
Nice save there. They decided to let Suji's mother discover the truth first so she'll have some time to rectify her harshness towards Suji; as well as, figure out how to solve Suji's resentment towards her “mother who abandoned her”.
In E55 alone, those were 2 strikes. In total, that's 4 strikes in the E51-E55 week. I guess we can call it the “Strike Theme” week.
Now that she knows, we can expect her bio mom to start changing her attitude towards Suji without letting her know. Everyone will also notice it, but they more likely will think she's more accepting of Suji, not realizing she's suffering as a mother.
Give or take, 2 to 3 weeks for bio mom to find a way to rectify the situation, both in the present “strikes” and the past that got all mixed up. The truth that she did not abandon her needs to come out, that's her only chance to put a crack to Suji's solid resentment.
However, once the truth comes out about Na Young's mother's lies, Suji and her bio mom will hate her to hell.
This is going to be very interesting because once the truth about Uri's bio mom is revealed, it is going to be an intense emotional and mental battle for everyone involved.
Suji: will she still accept him knowing who his bio mom is? Suji's mom: will she approve her daughter's relationship with the son of the mistress and kidnapper (that's what she is)? Uri: can he accept the fact that he is the son of the very person that destroyed the family of Suji, stole her father, cause their divorce, and their divorce alimony, etc. etc.?
If these truths come out, Hyun Sung will also find another chance to try and get back Suji. However, I doubt Hyun Sung's mother will approve, considering she made a conclusion that her husband is committing adultery through “emotions” with Suji's bio mom.
Not only that, Hyun Sung will also discover who Na Young really is.
Which brings us back to Na Young and Uri's bio mom. She's the cause of all the problems everyone experienced.
She's a mistress. She's an adulteress. She stole someone's husband. She stole her ex-friend's alimony. She lied about Suji having been abandoned. Na Young is an exact of her. Na Young caused the downfall of Suji. Na Young caused Suji to have a mental and emotional breakdown. Na Young indirectly influenced Hyun Sung to make pathetic moves.
And of course, let's not even begin to discuss the family registry. Who's who in which registry.
If not for the poster, we wouldn't know Suji and Uri will end up together eventually. Because right now, it's a total mess.
That was why they focused on the flowers and the ice cream!!! I knew there was something odd about those scenes! What most assumed to be fillers, are actually not. A good writer will never create a scene that has nothing to do with anything.
The ML bringing back flowers and ice cream from the present to the past was a clue to what their first child's power is… the reverse of her father's. His power is to bring something from the past to the present.
It also completes the theme that the FL's past is the ML's future and the ML's future is the FL's past. Her past is what will save the ML's family and his life. And the ML's future is what will save the FL in the past.
That is their child.
Their union saved both the ML and the FL.
Their child represents the FL's past. That past is the fire, not her past when she was in high school, but her past when the ML disappeared. Meanwhile, their son also represents the ML's future. That future is the time jump. It was the only way for him to survive Ina's school fire.
At the same time, their child's power will not exist if the ML did not learn how to control and evolve his own power. And it was only possible because of the FL. Because of it, he passed down a “reverse” version of his power to their son.
1. Chairwoman looking for his other grandson. Yet treats everyone as lowly people, including the grandson she's looking for. I can't wait for the privilege, self-righteous chairwoman fall down.
2. FL always siding with the Director, and not listening to others first. I can't wait for her to fall once she realises she made multiple major mistakes. Also at the time when she starts to fall for him. Hahaha. And he's staying away from her.
3. Following number 2, his mother disapproves of her.
4. Following number 2 and 1, she finds out they're brothers and heirs. How is she going to face herself in the mirror? And how is she going to handle the brothers fighting for her?
What I don't like: 1. Hyera. She's practically an extra right now. She's not affecting any plot at all. She's just a worm trying to make herself important but everyone knows she's a worm, and just keeping her because she's still useful. ROFLMAO.
2. Too centered on “privileged people” looking down on others. It's a 90s theme. Hehe. I hope the rest of the weekly themes will shift away from this.
LOL. Hyera is that type of person who delusions themselves and can't see they're being bitten by multiple snakes all over their body and face.
Can't see she no one's on her side? Can't she see everyone knows what she's doing? LMAO. How can she get what she wants if she just keeps doing the same failed tactic as before? ROFLMAO.
1. Suji's mother not understanding that they broke up already and still blame Suji because she only thought of herself and not the other person.
Baby boomer attitude.
2. She has this attitude of judging people any way she wants, and confronts them about it. But when she's the one being put on the limelight, she's ready to defend herself by being angry and shouting.
Another baby boomer attitude. Principles apply to other people but not themselves.
If Suji said they broke up, they broke up. Was it not obvious that her ex-bf is a total douchebag? She blamed Suji instead of siding with her. LOLWTFBBQ.
She's digging her own grave for her own daughter to hate her forever. If I was Suji, that's Strike No. 2!
Also, that's assuming bio mom did check. But, as was revealed in the earlier episodes, she never checked her family registry. She just filed to add Uri and Duri, but did not request an updated copy. Hence, she had no idea until now that Suji was removed under her.
