Channel makes more money by airing the major event happening next Tuesday than they would airing Ep 12. Usually, they will push the episode to the following week, but instead of pushing it they just moved it up. No drama, no matter how popular, is going to make as much money for them as a once a year sporting event

Some major sports competition that is taking ep 12s time slot. it's very common in SK for the channels to push dramas for major events because it's a lot more advertising revenue and ratings for those than for any drama.

Using the US as an example, if you were a channel would you air the new episode of Chicago Fire(any show, just first that popped in my head lol), or the Super Bowl? Easy choice

I agree, but to be fair she was hurt in the very recent past and her first impression of 2ML is that of a playboy. She heard the conversation with his ex, he didn't care about that relationship ending, and slept with her that night. I think he's proven himself personally, but I can also see where and why she would have hesitations

There's a sports thing or something idk what on tues, so instead of pushing the last ep out, they are just releasing both on Monday

I've respected her ever since she called out the KBS on a live. Don't remember the wording, but basically told a commentor not to strive to look like her, it's unhealthy and unnecessary and she only maintains it because it's her job

I'm sorry that happened to you, but I was agreeing with you and saying it's a cultural thing in China, really Asia in general it seems. It's disgusting, but expected was my point.

Yep lol, and I don't even watch everything. I'm guessing they get like a bulk discount with the broadcasters or something though, it's the only way it's feasible to me for Kopiko

Yeah, there's other benefits for the company in the US if you quit over getting fired, like unemployment, severance(depending on company) etc. At will does make it easier to fire someone, but there are still stipulations to it and the person they want to let go might not meet the criteria

Driving undesired employees out by making work so unbareable they quit is global. I (US) worked for a company that had an a-hole supervisor who always got the "problem" employees that they didn't have a valid reason to fire in the hopes that they would quit

10 shows a year is VERY conservative, it's probably closer to 30 minimum. I've already seen them in 5 dramas that started in 25

lol yeah, he saw the egg and ran home. He saw it was missing, but looked around (think it was the same scene, might have been later in the episode, I don't remember for sure) and it was under a cabinet. Later on, that lady came to collect her egg

both on Monday though :)

End scene of 8, she suspects. Opening scene of 9, they both find out

It was actually the lady's lol. Ju Yeon just thought it might be his, but he found his in his room

Won't watch it more than likely, and I'm sad about it. Not willing to give Kim Soo Hyun ratings atm

yeah, it kind of read like it's a contract where they say what they want from each other, but it's not legally binding like a real contract. Kind of a weird we do this, you do that, then we will actually agree to work together type thing.

As per AI (I wondered myself lol)

A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is a formal, written agreement between two or more parties that outlines their mutual intentions to collaborate or cooperate toward a common goal. While not typically legally binding in the same way as a contract, it serves as a foundational document to establish expectations and frameworks for future agreements.

I was actually hoping that instead of Ju Yeon appearing for the contract signing, the other party would cancel the contract since they agreed to work with the leads and the leads being out caused them to be out.

It's still a possible thing to happen I guess, with that sweet grandma that owns the ice cream(?) company they visited only agreed because of them.

It would be a great way to show grandma that she's the fuck up, not him

That was my thought too. Ever since the hookup in ep 1, he's been very open about wanting it to be real and he's in it for the long haul. I don't have a problem with her not wanting a serious relationship in general, but accepting someone that wants a serious relationship you have no interest in having is just cruel

Self guilt would be understandable from the ML over it, it's actually really common even irl, the grandma blaming him though is so weird and forced feeling
