I was like damn, I thought they will finish with that kiss in ep 5, but hell no, they delivered!

What do you mean, it was hot af in that sea 🥵

I'm telling myself that the ML already took a bullet for the FL in ep 7, so he won't take another one. Right? RIGHT?

My only gripe with this show is that it's too fast paced, ep 5 could be two separate episodes tbh. The second is the looming theat over the ML. I see no way for his character to end up alive at the end of the series. Not with the foreshadowing "I wish I took that bullet for you"...

I find the pace of the romance very fitting and the chemistry incredible. She just lost her husband, yeah, but I think she was lying to herself when she said that supporting his career is enough for her. Also the fact that he was keeping secrets, and not respecting her wishes (about running alone) means he didn't think about her as a competent and trustworthy partner. Not to mention their views didn't totally align with each other. And now she found a respecting, supportive, competent and swoony guy who is by her side at the most crucial moments when she is not supressing her ambition anymore. She is grieving, sure, but I don't think it's necessary to grieve for eternity.

Controversial opinion, but rather than Iraqi and Chinese people, the ones who were depicted the worst so far (I'm at ep 4) and have the biggest reason to be mad at the show, are the Americans lol.

The same people have no problem with their ~30yo favs playing high schoolers...

Ep 1 was fantastic, but the start of ep 2 was kinda messy, everything was happening so fast and I was not sure at which timepoint we are

I'd rather watch a show about Hwa Yeong unni, instead of these dense sisters (In Hye being at least somewhat resourceful). Really hard to stomach, I don't usually watch a show sped up, but here I really wished I did

In Joo has nothing going for her. In kyung at least has a head for economics and her morality. In Joo is not even a good accountant. I hoped she will get some development eventually but nah...

Yeah, but this is partners we're talking about. Unless they are just starting, or are doing pro bono cases, they should be bringing big clients, that's their job. More even than leading cases. They are most likely already rich people already. And to become an equity partner and get a share in the profits, they have to bring their own money to the table as well. So we're not talking about associates who don't really have an impact on what projects are being brought to the firm.

Way better hairstyle than in Melo Movie

Yeah I agree, the whole twin plot is really poorly done. She is not a character herself, only a tool for the FL to have an "imperfection" on her otherwise perfect life. Or at least make it seem that way to other characters/viewers when it's relevant to the story...

I have an issue with how the FL treats her mother. Like, she gave away her kid (to a childless relative, not some random people), but it happened 20 years ago, and the FL is still salty about it and complains about it every chance she gets, reopening everyone's wounds. They should have talked it out a long time ago, and perhaps FL's mother could have shared her perspective and gave some nuisance - maybe she wasn't equipped to handle a child with a disability and wanted better parents for her. It's painful for both of them to go back to the subject years and years later.
As for the bullying case, I just don't see how an accomplished and rich lawyer got scared by another mother threatening that her kid will be bullied as well. Not even mentioning that the FL had good friends at her school, so she wouldn't be alone, and the bully would get some sort of punishment, but I think that the mother met more dangerous criminals in her days as a lawyer and would not be so easily threatened lol. Also she deduced the perpetuous jaywalking on the base of one incident where the girl was looking at her phone?

Wasn't it meant to show that the can hear/speak enough? I thought that she could use the sign language, she just chose not to with her sister.

Hard agree. Especially after he told the other female associate to lean on him if she ever needs ADULT'S help. He clearly sees them as kids.
Also, the leads are on different stages of their lifes. The FL is working on her career development, whereas ML wants to be a father. I can't see it working out for them.

Former empress? She was not shown until the last minutes of the last episodes. She was not a character in Mr Queen at all. It was very very clear that the emperor loved the man inside.

Although a nice watch initially, it got boring for me as there are no stakes whatsoever. Our FL is beautiful, rich, from a good family, kind, top student and employee, which leaves barely any room to grow. Her clumsiness in ep 1 was a cute trait, not really explored further. Our ML is successful, handsome, rich, and so on, and so on. Only needs a kid to be happy and feel complete in his life.
They are managing pretty much only victims' cases, so no moral dilemma, winning everything they get their hands on. In the office they are facing utter dumbasses, so there is barely any office politics that would threaten them. The romance on the other hand is not getting developed, and even if it was, it feels weird to me how they would get involved - they are clearly on different stages of their life (her starting a career, him wanting a kid), I can't see it working out.
In the end, the drama got emotionless and boring... Fun initially but didn't really bring any interesting concepts to the table.

Romance dramas with high-traffic actors of clurse

It was even worse with Mr Queen, where they made us believe that message for 19.5 eps and then made a 180 at the last minutes and said - never mind...
