> I don't care if Ah Jin was desperate because of all the hate she was getting over In Gang's death, and Longstar Entertainment trying to blackball her from the industry. There's no way she'd believe Do Hyuk's nonsense about becoming her guardian, and wanting to marry her because she lived a hard life and he can't see people like her suffer.
No, no. She didn't see him that way. She saw him as another person she can used.
But she failed to identify that the guy is possessive and obsessive. In fairness, these two qualities often only show after getting married.
Basically, she was blindsided because she was still on a downward slope after what happened to grandma, her step-mother kneeling before her, and her boyfriend who she learned to love for real. Those events, right when she's starting to see hope that there are genuine people without a secret agenda for her, destroyed her last sanity.
The husband, meanwile, was observing her and he came into the picture at the perfect moment because he knew she is at her most vulnerable moment. He took advantage of that when all her guards are down.
She wasn't dumbed down for the sake of the story, she was written the way most people act and react when their last hopes were destroyed.
He knew she was the killer of her father and still turned a blind eye. He supported her and let an innnocent go…
But later, he recalled the scene outside of interrogation, just himself. He remembered it as him arriving at the scene and seeing her. She told him, "it is over" and she collapsed. But when he checked him, he was still slightly moving.
That was when he hit him.
Recall that the forensics discovered the father was hit three times. There were minutes gap between each hit.
The first hit was the cafe owner. The second was the FL. The third was him.
His blow was what ultimately killed his father. So by law, he murdered him. The cafe owner was an accident. The FL the conspirator, it can even pass as self-defense for her.
It was why the detective was on her, he knew she did the second hit. But JS was claiming he did both the second and third.
Ahh! I remembered another thing. When the detective was interrogating him, he mocked him with something like, "So, you are saying that you hit him when you arrived, and then a few minutes later you hit him again?" The detective detected his lies and was covering for the FL.
Hello, I see this has finished airing. Could someone please spare me a bit of their time and tell me, if they…
From what the others said, no, it's different. However, don't forget that adaptations never followed the original material to the letter, the mediums are different, the industries are different, the target audience are different, even the goals are different. So, if you'll watch it, watch it as a standalone work.
I think Jun Seo deserved to be punished. I just don’t understand why she and her husband, who deliberately drove…
I doubt the FL is living a "good life".
Her husband exposing the phone video and drone footage is him ensuring she will never be able to show her face in public ever again.
- The phone video was taken by his goon. It is not normal for a regular person to secretly film someone who pulled themselves outf a wreckage.
- The drone footage wasn't a CCTV, the elevation and angle is too high, you don't set up a road CCTV that high and in that angle.
Also, the investigators tried to search for her for days, probably even weeks , if that was a CCTV, they wouldn't declare her as "missing" and then later as "dead", because it was clear she wasn't dying-weak. She climbed up those stones and stood upright.
The same with the phone video, a regular person thinking of a scoop would've shown it to the police or sold it immediately to reporters. But it took days/weeks before it was revealed.
Jae-Oh used himself as bait for her and died. Jun-Seo exposed her to the world after she received the best actress…
No definite proof. But it was implied that it was her.
What the OP said was the investigators concluded she is dead because they can't find her. Probably died somewhere due to her wounds and her body washed or whatever.
They never explained why Baek Ah Jin started losing her sanity and having hallucinations as soon as she moved…
There was no need to "explain" it. The scenes in the entire episode was made it obvious what was happening to her.
Actually, the first time the husband told her the story of his first(?) wife was already a clue as to what will happen to the FL. But they dedicated an entire episode later just to show it.
In creative writing, the rule is "show, don't tell". That's what they did. They showed scenes, an entire episode at that, to establish that her husband is poisoning her. And yes, there are medicines that can be used to destroy the sanity of a person. Just give those medicines with such side-effects to someone and you'll see them slowly break down.
We understand, seems you don’t understand. He wanted to take ajin down so she need him again . He noticed ajin…
No, you're the one who doesn't understand.
This is an adaptation. Adaptations have the freedom to change anything. It has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the source material. Insisting that these are the same is exactly why you are failing to understand and appreciate the live-action adaptation.
maybe they wanted something cliche and webtoon one and the drama one never matches idk why did they had the hope…
Actually, they're not rating it low because they want it to be the same as the original source, the original source is way more brutal according to some people who've read it.
The reason behind the low rating is because those viewers are looking at a fictional work written by someone else from their own personal lens influenced by their religious beliefs and biases.
For example, someone said that they dropped it because "God" sided with the FL. Another said that the ending s*cks because the FL survived and was not punished.
They want the fictional story written by someone else to conform to their own personal beliefs, religion, and biases. If it goes against those, they drop it, rate it low, and give all the worst feedback they can think of.
They don't care about anything else. The message. The implications. The dynamics. The why's. It's either you subscribe to their subjective beliefs and biases or get a low rating.
LOLs. Does Ashtine wear wristwatches in either hands? In the S01 flashbacks, it was on her left, in the S02, it's on her right.
If not, they should hire someone who pays attention with continuity. I mean, that's SOP, there's a small team whose job is to take photos/videos of the set, props, and style of the actors, so they can maintain proper continuity per scene.
The absolute hate comments against the FL is defeaning. 🤣 They didn't see how worse the husband and JunSeo…
What they're saying is that you are an evil person even if you're just trying to survive. - It is fine if your husband is abusing you, poisoning you, because it is your punishment for trying to survive. - It is fine if the CEO used you because you let your mother die—let's not forget she was warned by her abusive father he'll get rid of her if she doesn't turn a blind eye. - It is fine to have a "friend" who delivered the killing blow to your abusive father and then frame you in national television as the murderer. - It is fine to have that same "friend" to drag you to hell because of his personal revenge against his mother. (Assuming the husband had nothing to do with the car accident.)
It is all fine because you're being punished. All those evil men and women around you are being used by some supernatural being to punish you because you tried to survive. Forget about the fact that you tried to wiggle yourself out of it because you don't want to manipulate anyone ever again.
Conclusion: Once a sinner, always a sinner.
The FL: Let those who have not sinned throw the first stone.

No one is saying that their deeds are justified. However, you cannot absolutely hate the FL while ignoring everyone else who drove her to do it.
