That last scene wasn't really a reveal since I think most of us already knew Sung Hoon was one of the kids. There…
Yeah, In Sung and Sung Joon seemed to have met at least once outside the court and had fight--by the way they acted to each other during a funeral. Even the way In Sung greeted him was loaded and Eun Ki did not catch it.
Then when she mentioned Hope center, both In Sung and Sung Joon reacted similarly.
The traitor kid was murdered by the suspect because, well, he was a traitor.
However, the mysterious thing about it is that, the traitor said when they all escaped Hope center, they all helped each other growing up, even in their 40s and 50s.
So… where's the suspect? 1. Was he one of those who “helped each other growing up, even in their 40s and 50s”?
2. If so, then why did he kill the traitor later? What changed?
3. Or, what if the suspect is the kid that was supposed to have died, but is actually alive?
4. He only got to start his revenge because this was only when he either regained his memory, or found out where his targets are? Because, at this point, the suspect appears to have planned this for a long time. The suspect already have his targets laid out. So he needed time to find all his targets, so he can plan accordingly (and in what order he's going to kill them).
Re: In Sung. He's too suspicious. But if the traitor kid's word is to be taken literally, "40s and 50s", then In Sung is indeed too young to have been part of that group.
What if the suspect is that witness who have a stomach ache and saying that the Detective is the suspect? It was if he was waiting to say that with full conviction and was waiting for the news to drop. But he wasn't aware there are new developments, so his 'news' was actually old/false by then.
lol it is.. I just checked ep 1 and it says it's 2011still confused about a few things tho.. if someone could…
Ahh, not sure on that, I haven't read the webtoon.
If Korean screenwriters and/or directors are like in other countries wherein they change some events/outcomes in the adaptation, then I think they'll do it. Personally, I want them to do just that for two reasons: 1. Marketing perspective: those who haven't read the webtoon will be curious.
2. It's an “alternate reality”, or a fulfilment of a “what if”.
But this MDL listing of a “Special” has a different description and has nothing to do with episode 24, yet people left reviews about episode 24, not the “Special” MDL described.
Is there really a "Special" as MDL listing description for "Special" really claimed or not?
If there is no "Special" then it should be deleted. Both Netflix and Viu have 24 episodes. Even TMDB, Track.tv, and IMDb, listed 24 episodes.
Today's episode had a lot of fluffy cheese and hot stuff, and that treasure hunt was entertaining. However, I…
Same thoughts. If she failed to solve his riddles… her life might have turned for the worse because of her brothers. And the gold would go to their former employee without anyone knowing it existed. And that piece of land probably sold to be developed without anyone knowing it grows flowers in season.
Total waste it would have been not just for them but for nature and the country.
It would have make sense if he was returning after a long break, but yeah, too many in a single drama. I agree, it won't make sense either if one hasn't watched the other shows, or remembers them.
50-50? It's hard to say, I'm not familiar how popular the pairings are in Korea. But his works with Kim Ji Eun and Lee Chung Ah were popular. It was also brilliant how they solved having two pairings for him--one present, one past. I wouldn't even think of that solution.
I hope the story is good. I mean, if we look at Hotel del Luna, while they wrote it for the actress, they still were able to create a memorable story.
It looks like they're going to spend a lot of time about his past so they can pair him with Lee Chung Ah (Awaken)…
Yeah, I think it will happen in ep 15 or 16. From the looks of it, whatever happened to his late "girlfriend" (at least we're assuming they were a thing back then), it changed him.
With the revelation in this episode, it's as if his new life is his way of paying her back. Maybe out of respect (she was an honest lawyer stuck in working for a firm who protect even criminals); or something happened which led to her death.
Hmm… could it be that he won the case and later someone discovered she was some involved or learned how she truly felt about the client she tried to defend? Which led to her death?
I mean he is the "main" main lead so the obvious focus would be on him.
I think you missed the point.
A good example is Hotel del Luna. It was written for IU / Lee Ji Eun. The story was written around her specifically. The story and other characters were secondary. They literally wanted her to wear a plethora of fashion. The focus was on IU not because she was the "'main' main lead" rather it was because they wrote it for the actor herself.
One Dollar Lawyer is no different. The story was written for the actor. To make him shine.
It differs from a story that was written for the character, or the message the writer wants to convey, regardless of who the actors are.
Example, Café Minamdang. While Seo In Guk was the "'main' main lead" the series did not focus on him nor revolved around him. The story was about a series of murders and how different characters apparently are actually connected to each other.
That was what I was trying to convey. Not because an actor is playing a "'main' main lead' role does it mean the story is about the actor. Hotel del Luna and One Dollar Lawyer are both obviously about the actors, to make them shine, to show their talents in acting. The story is only secondary, to make people watch.
Ahn Hee Yeon and her husband, are resting on the porch of their house on some island in the Philippines. Hee Yeon checked her phone and saw a photo of her three daughters. She was satisfied when she saw In Hye with Hyo Rin.
She searched her phone for a dress she saw a few weeks ago and sent it in their family chat, “will this look good on In Hye?”
She looked up from her phone.
“How are our daughters doing?” Her husband asked.
“Amazingly great.”
They continued to watch the sun as it sets behind four tall trees with beautiful blue flowers leeching off its nutrients.
Bonus option: Scene: prison, Oh In Joo and Jin Hwa Young talking.
Jin Hwa Young: They have a gardening program here. Oh In Joo: *smiles* really? Jin Hwa Young: When are you going to join me? I'll wait for you here, okay? Oh In Joo: In two months. I'll save the other 3 months of my probation for later.
Option 1: Scene: green house preservation museum(?)
*In Hye recalled the question of Park Jae Sang if she is willing to sacrifice everything to take what she wants.*
*Once they reached the top of the platform, In Hye pushed Park Hyo Rin.*
*She got away with it because it appeared Park Hyo Rin committed suicide, and people assumed it also because of her medical history and how she's related to Won Sang Ah.*

There are 24 episodes in Viu and Netflix.
Episode 24 is about Xiao Xi's audition.
But this MDL listing of a “Special” has a different description and has nothing to do with episode 24, yet people left reviews about episode 24, not the “Special” MDL described.

It is not episode 24, it's a different, separate one.
Episode 24 is about Xiao Xi's audition.
The MDL "Special" description is different from Episode 24, yet people are leaving reviews in the MDL "Special" listing referring to episode 24.
