Nah there is a difference.... Jae In refused to look into reality even when she SAW bad stuff and even when told…
Oh and question : what did you want her to do while she was tied to the bed? The only person she knew in that room was her husband. Was she calling out his name in disbelief because she couldn’t wrap her head around what was going on? Was she calling out to him for help? Maybe both but point is there wasn’t much else for her to do except hope this was a sick trick.

You keep saying that she caused death and suffering to her son and those around her but she has not. Nothing that’s happened has been her fault. ❌ Dohee was killed by the husband because she had information about the scheme the husband was cooking up. ❌ Dohee was almost killed by the mother because the mom assumed she was the mistress. You could argue that it is related to Jae-in because the mom claims to have done it for her. But let’s be real, the mom did it because she never got to get back at the woman her husband (allegedly) cheated with. ❌ The son was kidnapped because the brother-in-law was greedy and strapped for cash. It’s not Jae-in’s fault that she’s wealthy. ❌ Jae-in’s dad died, and again not because of her or anything she did but because the dad found out about the dual contract.
And you could say “well had she been more suspicious and street smart, none of this would’ve happened” but yes it would’ve. Her having her wits about her would’ve only made the antagonists work harder and probably faster and it would’ve been different people involved. Maybe instead of Dohee, it would’ve been Seungwoo or another coworker who found out about the contract. Her being less naive, less trusting, etc couldn’t have stopped anything.

gonna reply to you with a few comments or it might be too long lol & marking them as spoilers so they’re not clogging up the thread ________
I agree that Jae-in should’ve investigated her husband after her mom’s comments and I’d like to believe that she would’ve had the timing been different. Personally, if I witnessed my mother set up my younger brother for murder -my younger brother whom she had doted on- I would have a hard time believing anything she says. To Jae-in, it may seem like the mom is acting out of her insecurity from the dad bringing in another woman’s son + up to that point she had no real reason to be suspicious of her husband.
Now for the point about her willingly ignoring signs, can we really say that? She was being drugged morning and night and wasn’t of sound mind. Everyone around her had one story and her account of things was the only different one. It’s easier said when you’re outside of the situation but if you’re in a room of 100 -hell even 10 people and everyone is recounting that the frame in the hallway was a painting of dogs but you think it might’ve been of cats, would you not question what you saw? Now add the fact that you’re drowsy and constantly lightheaded from being drugged. Would you be able to say with 100% certainty that what you saw, though different, is the truth? It may be your truth but is it the real truth?
And I want to make it clear that I’m not trying to absolve Jae-in of anything or say she’s perfect because her being so trusting has made it exponentially easier for the antagonists to achieve their goals. But I do think she deserves some grace with the cards being so stacked against her. I think she’s silly but I’ve resorted to being her lawyer cuz the hate for her in this comment section is wild lol😅
You're right. She is naive but I also see her as willfully ignorant at times. She can be perceptive enough to…
I’ll be honest I’m too lazy to go look for the specific comments I saw but I’ll just say that there are more than one calling her evil and saying/implying that she is the cause of everything that’s happened.
It's one of those "I'm the only one who can hurt you" situations LOL he needs her freed from her freak husband…
I agree. He thinks causing problems between her and the husband will make her sad which will in turn hurt Jae-in's mom but little does he know her husband was a few steps ahead and hates her more than he does lol. He's still blinded by anger and grief but I'm sure it won't be too long before he thinks back on all their accidental rendez-vous and sees how he misunderstood her.
You're right. She is naive but I also see her as willfully ignorant at times. She can be perceptive enough to…
I 100% agree with you! You've quite literally put my thoughts into words. Kugyeong wants someone to sit beside her in her victim cell so I'm not surprised that she didn't warn Jae-in and is now actively contributing to her suffering.
i don’t see her as the villain at all but it is very obvious she was very sheltered her whole life. she has…
She's condoning it because she wants to see Jae-in suffer. She's been getting abused by her drunkard husband and wants Jae-in who she views as the poster child of a perfect life to experience some pain. She's not a good person but then again who in this drama is lol
You're right. She is naive but I also see her as willfully ignorant at times. She can be perceptive enough to…
Agreed. I think it might be a coping mechanism cuz she has nothing else to rely on? Her parents haven't equipped her with the skills required to deal with confrontation cuz they've sheltered her so much. Ignoring the problem and hoping it goes away seems to be the only way she knows to deal with things. I wish I could repost that last part. Some of the comments act as if her naivety is what made them mean-spirited when these people were obviously not kind-hearted before meeting her. Her ignorance just makes it easier to go about their plans since there's no resistance from her.
Yes, I said yesterday in a reply that JaeIn isn’t a villain. She is not trying to hurt anyone at all. Perhaps…
She is dumb but I have to put the blame on her parents especially her mom. They've sheltered her so much and now all this is happening and she's not equipped with the skills to deal with it. Not much critical thinking or discernment so all she can do is rely on her husband who unfortunately does not have her best interest at heart. If at least, she had gone back to work in episode one, she would've had something to lean on but alas :(
i don’t see her as the villain at all but it is very obvious she was very sheltered her whole life. she has…
This! It's clear she's never been faced with a situation like this cuz her mom took care of any issue that arose before it could even reach her. All she knows is the love and safety her parents provided then her mom basically has a psychotic break and everything she knew of her parents is shattered. Of course, she'd hold on to the only thing she knows is true (to her) which is her husband's love for her. I'm very frustrated with her but these comments have no empathy and see the situation as black and white when abuse especially domestic is never a black and white situation. Kugyeong is worse than the others to me because she sees/knows EVERYTHING that's going on and has info from all sides but she doesn't divulge any of it.
while I agree that Jae-in’s naivety enabled those around her, it feels like y’all are blaming her for every wrong. she could’ve been the most suspicious, highly alerted person and it still wouldn’t stop bad people from being bad. take her mom as an example.. she’s aware, she’s cunning and that still didn’t stop her from getting caught in a trap. I don’t know lol I just don’t like the way you guys villainize her when naive or not, her husband could’ve still cheated, murdered, etc.
