It would be the logical conclusion to the her special ability. She got a phone call instead?! It is as if another writer was brought in to finish the show and just ran with the succession plot instead. Weird.

I wish I have answers! LoL Maybe Chae Jung-Hyeop wants to seriously break into the Japanese market. All power to him. I liked Eye Love You. :) I wish it was 5 Japanese and a villa. It might even be funny. Right now it is just cringe. π«
I checked this out because of your review. All through it I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop (I mostly…
Thank you for taking your time to read my reviews and I appreciate your considered comments. π€ This j-drama was definitely not your standard issue, but j-dramas do have a reputation of taking a niche idea and see how far it can go. π There are other gems like that out there.

You should have seen my first and second draft! They are not PG rated. LoL

There are few shows I would drop with extreme prejudice and this is one of them.
Lot less pain to watch cats and dog videos on YouTube nowadays. π
9+ is the stratosphere of dramas for me nowadays. ;)
