It's the female lead "glow up" a personality change is on the horizon lol

Tomorrow's going to be fun

The "problem" with Yeojin calling Eunchong her grandson is that it implies that Eunchong isn't a stranger and there's a relation between the two ... Which would raise a red flag as the story that Yeojin has been telling everyone is that Hana is Yunjin and Eunchong is Hana's friend's son that she takes care of. It would expose the lie that Yeojin wasn't searching for her daughter, but actually her grandson. Both Richard and Yeojin kept Eunchong under wraps while they were investigating him as they felt like someone [Myeongji] would target him

Yeojin doesn't want to admit Eunchong is her grandson because that would lead to the lie being exposed, which was why Myeongji staged everything in the first place

It also helps that whenever Seyoung interacts with Bangeul, you can tell it's not from a genuine place... (I used to hate those scenes because you could see how fake it was lol ie the one where Seyoung bought Bangeul the luxury coat) whereas Hana and Bangeul actually seem to like each other.

No but did anybody actually WANT seokki and his mom to come back? Hands down the two most annoying characters in the drama and I hope they don't come back. Give us Hana's birth mother instead!!! you know the questions we actually WANT answered ....

Edited not even 10 minutes later:

Now THAT'S how you end your Friday episode off on a cliffhanger... the cat is now out of the bag...

I totally agree with you!

Yes I agree, Hana deserves the fairy tale romance the most... I am just hoping that the big reveal doesn't irreversibly damage Jingoo Hana's relationship ... !That's the biggest hurdle I think they have outside of Seyoung and Myeongji

Yeojin slapping the crap out the ex boyfriend was so satisfying lmfaooo I didn't forget about his messiness from the beginning

Wasn't expecting for Myeongji to expose Hana like that (to Seyoung) so early ... I thought it would take 10 more episodes but nope.

So the plot is moving... faster than I expected it to. Considering how the show opened up with Hana playing piano with her birth mom, I wonder if she'll be showing up? I hope so. I'll take that over this affair storyline/the multiple scenes of Seyoung being a jerk to Hana.

Interestingly enough, of the four lead characters, I'm only really cheering for Hana since she's really the victim of the other 3 (in different ways). Don't shoot me but I actually like Jiseok and Seyoung as a couple lmao. As the lies get deeper I don't see Jingoo and Hana lasting once his involvement behind the scenes gets exposed. But I could honestly care less who ends up with who rn. I'm not really watching this for the romance - I rarely watch dramas for the romance - I'm here for the scheming, drama and fraud (which this drama is definitely delivering on...)

That being said Hana, Eunchong and a happy ending is what I'm rooting for... but with how everyone is linked together rn, I'm so curious....

Hana reversing multiple times to back the car into a spot... relatable!

This drama is getting so messy and I am loving every second of it...

I'd like a wish a very happy Valentine's Day to Oh Sanghee for FINALLY breaking up Seyoung and Jingoo!!

I'm like a week behind but I actually didn't see Jingoo's mom owning the shabu shabu place coming? ✋🏾😭 I knew that Jichang was going to own a food place (I just had a feeling lol) but I'm actually shocked by this lol

That (Jingoo punching Jiseok) was the most obvious fake punch I've ever seen in an drama 😭😭😭

Finished episode 41. Yoooo.... they picked a very good cliffhanger to leave off for the Lunar New Year 💀💀💀 that preview... What did Yeojin see that got her shook? What is Seyoung going to realize about the picture of Hana and Duna?

Anyway of the main four, hands down Hana is my favorite... Seyoung is my second favorite (I actually understand her character so I don't hate her as much as everyone else does 🤷🏾‍♀️...) Jingoo is just "there" and Jiseok... has potential for growth. The story is starting to slow down a bit, but that's expected. I just hope it doesn't slow down too much

It's really crazy how this entire situation (well, the entire drama) could've been avoided if Myeongji did the right thing as a mother and held young Seyoung accountable and told Yeojin the truth about what happened. If anything, Yunjin and Seyoung probably would've gotten in trouble for sneaking out of Sungho's car, which is miniscule compared to the butterfly effect that Myeongji's lie set off.

Happy lunar new year 🎊

I also wish Yeojin would let me use her credit card 😭

If you liked the actress who played Jugyeong I highly recommend you watch Witches Game. She plays the villain in it and it's one of the most intense dailies I've ever watched. It's also written by the same woman who wrote one of my favorite dailies, ice Adonis/yellow boots (which I HIGHLY recommend. It was a tvn daily from 2012)

I want to watch Cheongdam Scandal so bad .... I like the lead actress Choi Jungyoon. I could watch the dub, I would probably just watch it unsubbed (or maybe use that as motivation to study Korean lol) low-key manifesting it gets uploaded onto KOCOWA since they usually upload old dailies....

Looks like our fast food sponsor for this daily is going to be Stella Ddeobokki... How I wish you were in the US 😭

Myeongji wins the award for most toxic k-drama mother. When she told Seyoung that she should just kill herself I actually recoiled like YIKESSSS

I've heard other kdrama characters throw that line before but they usually never say it to their kids, or it's played for laughs... Myeongji was completely serious... just look at the way the camera dramatically zoomed in on Seyoung when she said that.

No wonder Seyoung is so messed up... Myeongji is a narcissist and is using her to fulfill her dream as Hyesung's first lady. I empathize because my mom is unfortunately very similar so want her to break out of this toxic dynamic so bad, just as I had to 😭

Ji Suwon's duality is crazy though, it feels like I'm watching a completely different woman from in Vengeance of the Bride (if you want to see her play in a good role!)

This Seyoung Jingoo and Jiseok love triangle is ... starting to get real annoying to watch. Seyoung is a cheater, I don't really like Jiseok after the events of last week or how he goes about his revenge (he really thinks he's Light Yagami, lmao. Can't wait to see him get humbled) , and Jingoo is just lost in the sauce. I'm about to start fast forwarding through their scenes because we all know Seyoung /Jingoo relationship was dead on arrival

I'm not surprised Sungho & Yeojin didn't end up meeting, but at least it's not because he got killed off* (as I feared)

* As far as I am aware. I am not caught up lol

It's interesting, right? I use Kocowa for my dramas ... But for American shows I use Hulu/peacock/max/whatever and they don't cut the opening credits out... same with anime on Crunchyroll. It must be a cultural difference! Shame, because some of those are really well made!

(this is also why I'm willing to give the two sisters a second chance haha)
