My wife just absolutely rolled on the sofa laughing and so cute with the dolphin hats! But that scene when YW jogs to the date site with the huge basket on her back, adorable!!

Was she also the spoiled cousin in Business Proposal?

I kind of thinking that his actions are going to be caught by SY who has been looking out for YW at work and also socially (loved that little bit where she told YW to just eat the gimbap offered to her). SY has been like her guardian angel in several situations.

Yes, although I think it was a hard decision for JH to finally tell her, but I think he had to do it else he may become trapped and could later become resentful. But while there are many things YW cannot immediately comprehend, she does listen and understand opposing arguments and she does adjust her actions accordingly - albeit sometimes to an opposite extreme since she mainly sees black and white.
But it was surprising that the discussion also revealed that the 2 had already been on many "dates" that were on her bucket list already so it must have taken place over a period of time.

My wife couldn't stop laughing at the truck scene! She was so happy to see karma bite the guy! My wife scares me...

Yeah, Min Woo reminds me of Wiley Coyote with the Road Runner. He's all cunning and conniving and while he is setting up his traps, his schemes backfire by the innocence of Road Runner (meep meep!) I think the soundtrack is cute too, cueing the instances where he get's a swift backhand to his head.

Yeah, I am leaning towards the possibility of a S2 just because honestly this is similar to like Hospital Playlist - individual weekly cases with internal ongoing conflicts and character/relationship arcs. The writers and producers see such a great potential, the season finale might be a cliff hanger? That would suck, but then there'd be something to look forward to.

Yeah, MinWoo really upped his prick meter with his manipulation of YW. Just wondering what the writers have in store for him as his just desserts.

Fingers crossed! Yeah, the crazy amount of stress you can see him under in every episode, it's amazing he hasn't dropped dead already. I think the greatest stress was that episode where he took the accountability for the Billion Won loss of contract from the doctors.

I think the winning team of Jung, YW and YS all moving over would be a great addition to Ryu's firm. Doubt RYU can afford it, but with a few good cases the team can probably make it work. Let Hanbada and Taesun mess amongst themselves.

yeah, what the devil is the scene with coughing blood??? That would totally turn this series into a downer if he dies off.

That's what I feel about the father! He is absolutely courageous, honorable and loyal, and for all intents and purposes he kept his promise as best as he thought he was doing. But I felt he just misjudged a lot of things.
That said, the two power players in this drama being HSY and TSM, both seem to just as cunning, cold and calculating that I can see why WY's father was so easily manipulated or broadsided. He stood up for himself and the unborn child to take on the responsibility, and really felt sorry for him getting manhandled by both women as they battled each other. But that's why seeing some of the things that it appears these women have done, WY's dad is like a little lamb to the slaughter if he ever went up head to head against them.
I really felt bad for him in the scenes him with HSY and later with TSM, both leaving him really frustrated and these women were either gaslighting him, or berating him. While he stood up for himself and WY, just felt he's not even in their league of battle.

Yeah, I know. I was wondering that due to Gurami's phone call, that he decided to answer (a dating faux pas), maybe SY mistook that as a fake call in desperation to call off the blind date. So SY did her own fake emergency to save face. I really feel badly for the boss, he is a nice guy, but of course a bit to punny.

Yes, this. Honestly for someone who graduated with legal degree, he's not one to be forward thinking. If he decided to take the BAR become a lawyer, him getting broadsided by events and revelations, he probably would have been a crappy one. I mean he doesn't have to continuously know what happening in other's lives, but honestly it's a small universe. Two of his former colleagues are lawyers and both successful and powerful women. And yes, while the revelation of his daughter having super skills for legal matters, getting her to become a lawyer - worlds are bound to collide.

LOL!! I am so sorry, but your reply just brought a wave of emotions back on me. I remember my youngest daughter at her job at local ice cream shop when she was a teenager, and whenever she had to closing shifts, I would be like parked across the street at least an hour before closing time just keeping an eye out. I was always on time to pick her up she had always told me and she was impressed how I timed my drive from home just right. Not until years later she found out from mom that I spent hours parked keeping an eye out, and I would go crazy worried if cars drive in after the restaurant is closed. When she gave me a big hug, it was all worth it.
So I empathize with your mom...

Seriously I am looking at TSM timeline over the past 27 years.
1. She gets pregnant out of wedlock.
2. She's is getting an abortion.
3. Dad begs and pleads with her to have the baby.
4. His last promise to her to disappear and never see her again.
5. Baby is born, handed to dad, and goes NC.
6. Proceed with her career path and success towards ministry position.
6. 27 years later daughter confronts her...
I'd be pissed too with the dad.

Dad's timeline
1. Get's her pregnant.
2. Goes and begs her to let him take the baby.
3. Disappears and does not take the BAR as promised.
4. As child grows realizes she has autism and unable to speak.
5. Suddenly one day discovers she has genius for legal matters.
6. Promptly puts her on track to becoming a lawyer...
Let's see, I graduated as a lawyer, my daughter is a lawyer and excelled at the BAR exams, my ex is proceeding on her legal career, another former classmate (and good personal friend) is also a lawyer.... hmmm what can go wrong?

Seriously the dad isn't the brightest light in spite of having graduated as a lawyer. I mean, in all these years he just stuck his head in the sand not knowing the careers of either of the ladies (HSY and TSM)? For him to suddenly become aware that Hanbada was HSY, and TSM from Taisan, it's not like either woman continued on in obscurity, both being successful enough for their respective postions. So much of the drama is result of the dad's poor decisions.

So true that about parent's concerns over the child being able to make their own mind. This spring I had a discussion with my SIL, who had been complaining about her son being taken advantage of in terms of his work shifts at the restaurant he works at. As needed the restaurant has requirements for unplanned overtime, or change of shifts due to the dynamics of the work force. But she felt that he was being taken advantage of in that it seems whenever there is need he gets called upon. The problem is not really with him, but actually that the parents need to be on call sometimes in order drive him and pick him up from work, so there is an obvious inconvenience.
But I did ask her the big question, and that was while she saw it in her eyes that he was being taken advantage of, did he feel the same or was she projecting her sense of justice on to him. After a lengthy discussion, and getting him involved he told us that he really didn't mind at all, since the extra work gave him money and while he may have gotten more unexpected work he felt good because he was helping out everyone. The manager sometimes a was bit obnoxious but he wasn't malicious and did honestly treat him well, not someone to be pitied but an equal coworker. The manager also felt he was a coworker he could rely upon when everything else goes wrong since he knew he did everything accurately and detailed. He also knew not to push him too hard during his shifts since eventually everything gets done.
It also turned out much of his stress was not from the job but from knowing his mom will sometimes get upset at him for making his own decisions.
My SIL still occasionally gripes, but it seems she is giving him a bit more leeway on his work schedules and she tries her best to accommodate in her support for him.

Yes, this. Although maybe I feel the way things are going he will wind up helping YW more by accident but will open the can of worms while digging through the dirt for all the connections. Maybe uncovering he will find other things worse than just nepotism, which is his primary peeve.

LOL! If she moved to Boston, I could imagine her going head to head vs William Shatner or James Spader from Boston Legal! I would love to see a courtroom battle with her and Shatner - can you picture autism vs insane? Although I think both James Spader and Shatner will wind up protecting YW just because.
