It's so funny how on most shows, we all think the amount of episodes should be shorter, but for this one I feel like 40 episodes would've been perfect.

I definitely agree with you on the FL leaving her brother alone. I honestly can't blame her though, money for sure is a big stressor for her and she deals with that by joking around about it- Her brother obviously doesn't deal with that stress the same way and this is going to totally be a big thing later on.

you have to watch at least the first episode to understand why it has a mystery tag . i went into the show without knowing the genres and expecting a classic sports school drama and was really surprised and happy with how the plot is going

episode four is so good !

i also think it's because he was getting wayyy too close to her and was making her feel unsafe

i'm absolutely loving the new hairstyles teased for the second season ,, dang gu will look extra handsome with all black hair

I have a question for those who finished watching this . Does Danah ever stop treating her brother like shit ?

I stopped watching this show because I couldn't understand how someone could be so mean 😭 - and we were supposed to like her too . Maybe it's just me , because I haven't seen anyone else complain about it . But she was just unnecessarily mean to him and even skipping the scenes didn't help since she is one of the main characters .

I just finished this drama myself and I would say it's a bit of a slow burn. But I don't think that's a negative. It's really easy to become immersed in the content and I found myself really enjoying the acting/characters of everyone.

I would like to say that this show is more about the inner workings of baseball, so there is very little scenes of them playing the sport out on the field. Regardless, the script, especially dialogue from the main characters rarely made me feel confused , so if you're in the mood to really sit and pay attention to a show - then this would be a great watch !

As much as I hate the mother character, I really appreciate how we're seeing a (for the most part) realistic damaged relationship between mother and daughter. Lusi's acting , down to her eyes and small gestures , even the sound of her voice is absolutely wonderful as well.

Episode four was really well done when it came to conversations between characters and even the monologue shaoshang had alone on the balcony brought me to tears .

I sincerely hope shaoshang can find true happiness , love , and support .

honestly i think dejected is what lusi was aiming for and i really enjoy that aspect of her character .

when you take in consideration how her character has been (and is continuously) being treated - that's the only way she can really survive mentally . by being dejected . there was even a great monologue by lusi's character in episode three (i think) , really explaining why and how she's going to act going forward .

obviously that was before the introduction of her brothers and aunt , but as much as i appreciate the dejected acting from lusi . i really hope her character finds real happiness and can express herself more in the future

i totally understand your point ,, i guess i was looking at it in the way how i would react to a friend or coworker doing something like that .

like even though she was standing on the table - given how shocking the sight was to joon ho . i'd figure he would even just maybe say something as " woah that was really dangerous " . or something like that cause that's how i would respond to seeing anyone do that . even if they were on a sturdy surface

it was mainly surprising to me how nobody said anything about it at all , you know , like the scene happened and then that was it . but i may be a little sensitive about stuff like that

i'm talking about youngwoo attempting to hang herself in the office , i'm only so hung up on it because it's never made clear about how far she was going to take the experiment , and everyone kind of just accepted it and didn't say anything about it afterwards

maybe it's just me but i wish there was some sort of confrontation or at least joon ho or her boss questioning her on why or telling her she shouldn't have tried to recreate that scene .

it was quite shocking to see her go so far as to do that and while i understand that it was just one of her methods of learning about the case , i feel like someone needed to tell her not to try that alone or at all - because that could've gone so wrong if he didn't walk in at that time .

i'll describe the specific scene in the replies as a spoiler ,,

i know it's been awhile since you commented this ,, but i don't think they were encouraging cheating . they were just saying how they would be happy with whoever the FL chose . As in if the boss and FL got together they'd be happy or if the emperor and FL got together , they'd be happy .

although i do think as the story progresses , the FL might loosen up a bit - or at least get more comfortable with the ML and not keep everything to herself

it's kind of funny , like usually i would drop a show if one of the main characters felt too dull but with this one - the plot is too interesting to drop

i have a soft spot for the crown prince 😭

just from the previews of the next episode . i'm kinda loving the idea of mudeok becoming the maid of the crown prince . i think that would be interesting

the second episode was very good ! it's been a while since i've sat through a whole episode of a show without skipping a scene

wow this was really great ! i watched this on a whim and it just made me happy !!

i wish it didn't include the part where that lady spikes kuranosuke's brother's drink though . it was a small part and didn't really do much to the plot , but i felt that using that type of situation as a quick joke was distasteful .

all in all though , i loved each character in the main group of girls and also kuranosuke . i was ready to go into this anticipating that they'd portray drag queens as a joke , but his whole character was done really well , which made this ten times better then it would've been if not.

i also really loved tsukimi and kuranosuke's relationship and wish we got more moments with them together .
