the-simpian

watching ep 34, and the aunt still makes my blood boil... telling your own niece that she should be ashamed of herself when you're siding with and lying for the cheating, lying scumbags!! Make it make sense!!

19:30 She's worried about her fake ass niece XD lol I really hate her. I hope her real son turns his back on her for good and gets her karma

ohh Ham Eun Jung looks like her character from her Dream High days. Almost forgot she was in the girl group T-ara

Obviously, that won't happen, and she'll get her redemption arc. 🙄I hope the writer has her exiled from the country and she gets kicked out of the company with nothing to her name like Jae In in the beginning. I hate her more than the main villains.

I caught up to ep 27, and god do I hate that aunt. I hope she loses everything and her son abandons her. If I were the FL, I would never forgive the aunt after saying that losing my son is my fault and siding with the actual murderers. Fuck her even if she does eventually side with Jae In. I would not want her help ever. Even if I did, I would use her and throw her away like the garbage she is.

well finally... I need to catch up. I haven't been watching since ep 15 cuz I was waiting for the revenge glow up

Hana always had short hair, but she dyed her hair black. FLs almost always dye their hair black or a darker color when they're feeling vindictive in these makjangs.

yeah I was about to say... I see where Jae In gets her brain cells from...😂

I agree with everything you stated, and I have to say: I love the way you write! I understand why you will not continue watching, but I hope you continue providing some commentary based on what you read here.

You say the same things time and time again... I want you to understand what gaslighting means and what certain toxic relationships can do to a person and their mentality. Again, I don't mean to offend you this time, so if I did, then I'm sorry. Yes, I agree that Jae In made some dumb decisions, but she grew up as a clueless, rich princess. The important thing to note is that she is growing and learning to be independent, without all the privileges she had before. It takes time for someone to learn and adapt to a new lifestyle and be street smart. Everyone has different experiences in life that shape who they are. Unlike other FLs in these makjangs, she was not raised to be street smart because she did not need to be before. She happened to marry a dirtbag husband who meant her ill intentions, BUT she did not know that because the dirtbag put on a facade of a good, lovable hubby for their entire marriage. She is an inherently good person who trusts others and believes that everyone is good as well. Even if the clues of an affair were obvious, she would probably write it off as a misunderstanding since she believes her husband to be a good person, and that is the way she thinks. It's very hard for a person to change their way of thinking overnight (I mean like you, for example; you're very obstinate about your opinion of JI). She is already a person susceptible to manipulation and an easy target for others to take advantage of. Now, (to put it short), gaslighting is manipulating someone using psychological methods into questioning their own sanity or powers of reasoning. Add in the fact that Jae was drugged and grieving for the loss of her unborn child, she was mentally incapable of making good decisions because grief and drugs do that to people and change their brain chemistry. You may argue that she allowed herself to be manipulated; though, that argument does not make any sense... she wasn't aware of it then and couldn't tell that GC and co were lying. I'm not saying Jae is not naive and gullible; she is, but I don't think she is as awful as you make her out to be. She is just human. It is not like no human has made stupid mistakes that they have come to regret before.

Whew! I've never typed this much before on an online forum. If you still don't see what others and I are meaning, then idk... I think this is the last time I will discuss this with you.

In a story, a villain is an evil person who INTENDS harm, often opposing the protagonist's goals. Yes, Jae In's dumb decisions caused problems for her and indirectly for others (tbh I think it's just her son; dohee and the chairman dying is not her fault, and I honestly think dohee's dumb for withholding info that started all this mess, but I digress). Anyhow, 1. Jae In is not inherently evil, and 2. She did NOT intend harm before. Right now in the drama, she is INTENDING harm to take revenge on those who wronged her (and rightfully so); however, in this case, Jae In is called an ANTI-HERO, who is a protagonist engaging in questionable or immoral actions, but strives for the greater good or seeks justice. I hope this answers your question.

nah, I thought she was dumb for not seeing that GC has stabbed his now ex-wife in the back. Idk why she thinks GC would not do the same to her or SW.

lmao if you really think about it, that's exactly what Gichan did... Married her, had a kid with her, cheated on her, betrayed her, and took away everything she had. Her ex-hubby has already done the revenge thing for Do Yun.

can you expand on this? Making assumptions about who? The antagonists who gaslit and drugged the dumb FL, who wasn't capable of making the right decisions because she was DRUGGED, and was GRIEVING because she had a miscarriage? You also called the FL hysterical (I don't deny that she was), but she was that way because of the dire circumstances she was in. Some of the comments you make about the FL are lowkey misogynistic.

Kumu is the Korean word for aunt

I don't understand how you sympathize with the antagonists who gaslit and drugged the FL into making the dumb decisions she does, and then blame and villainize the dumb but sweet FL. Next, you are going to be saying the FL's MIL is not at fault for drugging her ex-DIL, that we should be understanding of why the MIL did what she did. Good lord, I hope you're never part of a jury

The aunt should know that gichan is greedy to keep the company to himself, while her niece is naive enough to willingly give away the company to her half-brother/cousin out of love and sympathy (I mean, she already gave away her shares to her ex-husband). If I were her, I would have cast my vote on an easily manipulated niece who could act as a puppet for her, but I guess kumu is on Seri's side just because seri reminds her of her younger self, which shows what kind of person she is.

yes, see how they're not blaming her for everything that's happened and giving the FL some grace to grow?

kumu is an idiot too if she voted for gichan. what makes her think the cheater will hand the reins over to her dear son?

How is calling you "this person" rude? You are a person, no? What am I supposed to refer to you as? If I had called you by other names, then that would have been rude. I did not want to misgender you, so I went with "person". I didn't mean to offend you by calling you a "person". And yes, I am blaming and calling people out like you, who go around spreading this harmful, unhelpful rhetoric that distracts from the real issue and allows the perpetrator not to take accountability for their actions, just like how you're blaming the dumb, naive victim. Anyway, we can agree to disagree on this matter. Have a good day :)
