As far as this Korean adaptation is concerned, I'm suspecting these two characters:1. soon-to-be 3rd husband:…
Ahh. The hand thing. In the past, her bf attacked her and injured her hand. In the present, for some reason, she repeated that incident.
Although, I just remembered, the Prosecutor probably asked her what to do. At least based on when they captured and tortured her, the Prosecutor said something like "I thought I can use her".
People focusing just on the cheating arc are crazy here, there sexual trafficking going on and all they care about…
Just ignore them. They're a waste to deal with. I gave up on them. 😅 For one, it's fiction but they're so affected. Secondly, it's being used as a plot device to make it even more interesting, but they're ignoring that fact. Third, any human being do make mistakes and it has been proven scientifically that if we don't reign in our hormones, it does lead to mistakes in certain situations. But they don't want to admit it either. They act high and mighty. I just hope they don't make the same mistake themselves one day. 🤣
As far as this Korean adaptation is concerned, I'm suspecting these two characters:
1. soon-to-be 3rd husband: The real brain behind Connect In.
a. How was it that one of the hotel Connect In is using is his company's client? b. How was it that knows how to crack the system of Connect In?
Only the devs know how to bypass all the security they put in their software. Unless they want his character to be the world's greatest and ultimate hacker—which would be high school level writing.
2. The revenge victim.
I'm suspecting she's the child of the attorney.
a. She intentionally got close to her "younger sister". b. She was partially holding back on cutting her face, because she's trying to sort out her thoughts: revenge vs she's innocent why should I use her, she's my "half sister". c. She could've killed the other attorney with her drugs but only gave a.small dose. d. She duplicated the incident her "mother" had, for what? Only reason is to remind her it is not over. e. She got too angry when the attorney said to move on. For her, it's revenge. It is deeply personal. What could have made it so? Only plausible answer is, her father is the prosecuter and she hated it, her mother is the attorney and she doesn't even remember her. f. She saw the baby clothes the attorney was keeping and she was taken by surprise. Her idea was she abandoned her, but after seeing it, maybe she had a reason. g. She made sure the laptop is safe from Connect In suspects. But she's going to use it to get information about the suspects and destroy them herself. h. She left because she realized her "mother" completely abandoned her past, which includes her.
They really played well the fact that it is brands that we're actually paying for. Be it things or food. We're paying for the brand, the name, the prestige, everything else are just bonuses or a small percentage of the price.
They also played well how local products are exported elsewhere, branded as Made in elsewhere, then imported back in the origin country. This is very true. There are many Made in the Philippines products that are later imported here with Made in US/CANADA/EU and a different branding. It is a legitimate process in the industry.
The two "Sarah's" do not look similar at all regardless of what the show was preaching, lol. That whole…
That is the entire point so the "truth" is obvious.
When Sarah Kim was telling the detective the "truth", her narration was not matching the scenes we were shown. She never told the detective she saw her husband at the event, but the scene was telling us that she did.
And the husband recognized her, which helped the viewer to recognize that she is the real Sarah Kim. But Sarah said to her husband that he got someone mixed up. That was her telling him, "you haven't seen me", because right then and there, she figured out her final curtain call.
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. 😅

They already did. That's why they want her to admit it herself.
They also cannot use the "witnesses" because they either are keeping quiet, or they want things to be private, or crazy in the head.
> And why didn't the police look for her kidney surgery mark?!
They already know it. But that won't prove anything. She can simply create a new story. And they cannot force her without a warrant.
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.

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!
