On a side note, this whole show is told by the people around Sarah Kim and Sarah Kim herself. The entire narrative…
> I wouldn't be so quick to trust what Sarah Kim described as the truth at the end.
It never was the truth.
She claimed to be MJ so they will be forced to drop the case against Sarah Kim. The detectives knew what she was playing, unfortunately for them, they don't have anything to prove she really is Sarah Kim.
The real truth is what the scenes showed us while Sarah Kim was telling the detective a modified truth. Notice how Sarah's narrative to the Detective wasn't matching the scenes.
Mok Gahui was not her real name? How do we know it wasn’t? Also did she took the bag of money just after her…
1. Mok Gahui was not her real name?
No one will ever know. She never admitted it. And the story flow suggested that when she applied for work as sales, she was _likely_ already using fake names.
2. How do we know it wasn’t?
We don't.
3. Also did she took the bag of money just after her sucide( if yes then what money is it? form where does she have it) and or it is the cost of her husband’s tree?
No. The money she withdrew from the ATM, that came from her buy-and-sell gimmick. Then she used it all, with the last as a tip at the hotel.
As per her suicide letter, she wanted to live as a free and rich person for one day before she dies. That's what she did.
Then she went home to her real place, wrote her suicide note, and jumped.
As for marrying the loan shark, that was after she had a new idea and thus stopped her suicide. The best source of money was the loan shark. Plus, her "partner", that other CEO.
The tree, she can't sell that.
4. also why did she asked the young guy to kill her husband and why did she protected him from being killed?
It was her plan all along. She wants him to make her the sole heir. Then the hospital probably faked her kidney was damaged, so the husband decided to just make her the heir.
Once she was made heir and his health deteriorated, she can just walk away and do nothing. But of course they figured her out. However, since the husband found respect for her, he let her go. Which in turn made her donate her kidney.
5. why did the woman who lost 15 million didn’t denounce Sarah Kim?
She can't. She's protecting her image and her company. No one must know she was scammed.
I haven't read the original source, and from what those who did say, the adaptation veered off here and there—it is an adaptation after all—so my guess is "Mr. President" is actually alive.
Remember the ML said he should restart his shadow government while in prison? The ML probably orchestrated his poisoning and secretly revived him.
I think the ML understood it's better to have him in control rather than a new face no one knows about. The thing is, someone will always set up a shadow government. The best person you can trust to lead it is someone you brought down and offered a second chance—to do things properly this time.
So, in the end, Mr. President is back but surrounded by people who will faithfully do a check-and-balance on each other so abuse can be prevented.
Another hint is when ML's senior talked to him on why he didn't use the files to establish a new shadow government. The ML didn't flinch at the idea, rather, he turned the offer down. It hints that they both know the shadow government will be restored and they both know who will lead it.
That's my take
---
Of course, the other option is the President-elect, and the ML's senior is actually the right-hand man of the new President. The ML suddenly showing with all those plans, their group played with the ML because they have the same target.
Recall that we don't know much about dhe previous timeline. All we know was people who opposes Kang were eliminated one by one. They never gave us a clue that those people were actually a second group.
Since in this new timeline the Kang and Mr. President network has been destroyed, the other group seized control of the shadow government.
---
About Kang being given a phone, well, he still have his own network. His confidence never wavered, it means he still have aces up his sleeves.

Ok, I'm pissed off already. How can you not explain to a contestant what was wrong with his dish. They "Over…
I'm suspecting they just didn't include those scenes in the final cut. For example, in E02,.they showed a few scenes where they explained their reasons.
But yeah, they should've included those for the viewers. We want to know as well because we can't taste it!
As per the other judges, Mimi so far has the highest count of failing contestants. 😝 Looks like she's balancing the situation, the professional judges are too polite to fail them. 😅
its pretty hard not to focus on a main character you are supposed to be invested in having cheating on her husband…
It's not. Remember, this is fiction. They need this plot device to happen. They need her to do exactly that. Secondly, they want to show the reality. People do make mistakes because, like it or not, hormones. You're lying to yourself if that isn't happening in real life.
They depicted reality, people complain. If they tone it down, people still complain.
She lost control of herself. And besides, why blame it on her entirely when her ex was the one who made the first move?
It's funny how women are accusing her of cheating, and here I am a guy I blame her ex. She came there knowing she can trust his ex, and herself. But things didn't go the way she hoped.
If her ex didn't make a move and actually respected her, even if she force herself on to him, he will not accept her. But the worst happened, he made the first move.
No, she was not the one at fault, so give her a break. It was her ex's fault.
I really hope it is permanent because I've seen or read something similar before. Same plot, the cure is in the…
The cure is only temporary, and it varies per person. Even the person whose body became the vessel for the cure eventually relapsed.
But the kicker was, there were people who received the cure and actually got cured permanently. However, no one knew about them because they got the cure in a roundabout way, the blood from one was passed to another then another.
People believed they can get cured even if it came from someone else who received it and from someone else who also did. The story was open ended, basically told us that, a permanent cure can only be found after it passed on to multiple people. The source was only the beginning. It's not perfect yet.
Think of a virus. The story reversed that and considered the possibility that a cure also acts like a virus—it needs to pass on to multiple people so it can mutate.
Depending on how you look at it, the story was either sad or hopeful. Sad because a lot of people died, and the reputation of the source was tarnished and everyone who worked with the company the source signed-up with. But it was also hopeful because humanity will soon have a permanent natural antibodies.

Luckily, the judges felt the same. LOL. I thought it was just me being picky.
Still, I'm happy it's not pure bread. 😁 I love desserts too!
They pushed it too far, they forgot to ask if the scenario they painted is still logically sound.
They depicted reality, people complain. If they tone it down, people still complain.

It will be addressed at a later point, they're using it as a plot device.
