Yes it is, but we're aren't in real life.

She's definitely portrayed as timid and naive, but it's all done for the storyline to proceed as planned, right?

Yeah, she should have gone to the chairman like Hwa-young did...but then again, if she did that, we wouldn't have the same type of drama, right?

Sometimes, reality just has to be put on hold.😁

That is possible...

@joetoca, I agree with you, it looks like this will be the way it goes. I also agree with you that the 1st episode is promising. Fingers crossed that it stays this way.

The only thing I'm not sure of is the chairman's son - Dong Seok. He is listed pretty far down in the credits. Doesn't that mean he won't have a lot of screen time?

I have a feeling that it is to help Woojin. Not sure exactly how, unless it's just financial support if he breaks free from evil mom.

That would be awesome if the 3 kids and stepson joined together to defeat her.

I'm thinking JiHyeok's just happy she didn't definitively say "no way".

What you said about Seonghui harming JiHyeok is very plausible. She's upset for sure at the fact that he knows her secret. If that happens, then Eunoh might definitely realize that she still loves him.

I guess things need to happen pretty quick, unless they are going to wait till the last episode to have the leads be together. We only have 12 eps left.

Somebody needs to defeat Seonghui quick. I'm tired of watching her do whatever she wants and getting away with it.😡

You're right about "old history", it's like an loose end that they felt needed to be tied up when it really didn't.

I did...I just commented on this a few minutes ago. I didn't get it. To me it seemed very random or haphazard or unnecessary.

My burning question of the day...do the actors have to rehearse how to hold the Kopiko package? 😆

The situation between Jihyeok and his dad...I'm not sure what was gained by resolving it this way. Jihyeok didn't feel he was wrong for feeling the way he did up to this point, but because he finds out that Jung Bo A's dad humilated his dad, then all of a sudden he realizes he was wrong.
It doesn't really make sense to me, but whatever...🤷‍♀️. Maybe my brain is frozen!

I was afraid that Eunoh was still going to emphatically say "no chance" to a relationship with Jihyeok, but it looks like there's a glimmer of a chance, but he's gonna have to work hard for it.

I was hoping that Eunoh would throw the money in her face and say **** off, but it looks like she takes it. Maybe it's a misleading preview thing.

I'm hoping Woojin doesn't go along with Seonghui's plan.

Yes...it was the humiliation part I was confused about...

What's your take after Seonghui confronted Subin in the preview.

I sort of got the feeling that Subin will break up with Seonghui to protect her family. Another one that bites the sacrificial bullet.

But I could be wrong!

Ok...I see. I thought you were thinking she will try to break up Subin and Seongjae (which it looks like she will).

For Seongjae's first marriage, I'm sure she was the driving force behind the breakup, but Dad went along with it.

Seonghui wins my vote for "Most Hated Character in a Kdrama".

Wow, a very emotional episode. One of the better episodes, imo. I feel like everyone did a very good job with their roles.

I'm a little confused about what Jung Bo A was talking about with Jihyeok. Have I missed something or has whatever it was not been shown yet? I guess I'll find out tomorrow...

It was sweet that Eunoh brought the last serving of porridge to Jihyeok. Very touching.

No telling what she will do.

I agree. Unless the big bad witch goes away and dad has a change of heart.

It may be that partly, but also because he knows how Seongjae's family treated his first wife (because they thought she wasn't good enough) and he doesn't want his sister to suffer the same treatment.

Yes, please. I don't ever want to waste my time like this again.

Just thankful it's over.

My comment referred to JiWan, the younger brother...not the ML.
