Ep 90:Am I supposed to feel bad that Baekho is sad because Jangmi is trash? Dude you dodged a bullet. Both Taepyung…
ep 91: Youngja is the MVP of this episode!!! She said "these hands are rated E for everyone!" Her slapping the shit out of Hwayoung added 10 years to my life! By far the most enjoyable part of these last few episodes π€£π€£ she's about to unleash hell on Hwayoung... Jangmi WISHES!
Getting a wisdom tooth extracted is a more enjoyable experience than watching Junho and Jangmi's "relationship" play out but it's nowhere as annoying as watching Nambong ignore reality and chase Hwayoung lmaooo I hope this bites him in the ass big time. Hwayoung is trying to do her best to do damage control while Nambong is talking himself into a hole. Good luck trying to outsmart a divorce lawyer π Nambong better have a horrible ending he's earned it.
It's very telling that Baekho cared more about Youngja's feelings and what Nambong's affair will do to the family while Junho was more concerned about this damn wedding.
And of course it's not an episode of The First Man without empty threats from Jangmi. "Chae Hwayoung I'll make you cry tears of blood!" Yeah okay and I'm a chaebol heiress π you aren't even brave to tell Baekho the truth of Hwayoung and Junho's relationship. Good luck trying to take the Root of All Evil out on your own. During the midway point of the drama Jangmi benefitted from Baekho and Taepyung's plots and now she's about to benefit from Youngja...
Seorin...! π I actually gasped! Hopefully she rejoins the story soon because it needs her... Hopefully without amensia (unless she fakes it π) this drama is frustrating enough!
As for the next episode? Youngja is going to serve papers to Hwayoung during the family meeting (actually iconic tbh), and it's possible that Sukhee may get her memories back (please... I find her very annoying lmao). And of course... Seorin!
Ep 90: Am I supposed to feel bad that Baekho is sad because Jangmi is trash? Dude you dodged a bullet. Both Taepyung and Jangmi withheld critical information from him... if I were him i'd be jumping for joy that the trash took itself out. But in this bizarro world of a drama we're supposed to feel inspired by his undying devotion to Jangmi because that's true love!! π Also rolling my eyes at Junho punching Baekho for absolutely no reason. My fellow Junho shooters it's about to be a rough ride.... and hats off to the writer for making Baekho look absolutely pathetic.
However I will give Baekho his flowers for locking in and trying to find Seorin. THAT will shake Hwayoung up more than any wedding will.
So now we're in the arc where Baekho is blaming himself for something that has absolutely nothing to do with him and Jangmi is going to cry talmbout some "mianhae Baekho..." You weren't very sorry when you lied by omission to him... several times.. and I still don't buy that Junho actually likes Jangmi... Never have actually.
Youngja finally finds out about the affair and I'm pleasantly surprised it wasn't a fake out by the writer since she's fond of those....
Not Cha Jung-Won π I miss her! I WISH we had a Cha Jung-Won or Shin Hwa-Kyung (from Secrets and Lies) here.…
LMAOOOO??? not KBS trying to erase that drama from existence πππ
I've found that SBS will upload some of their older dailies onto YouTube.... KBS is the best about maintaining their yt channel but MBC is the worst about it
I know a little bit of Chinese and I've had the idea to try to search up these dramas on like bilibili (?) or youku or something... Guess I should try that ... π€
Now appleTV has a bunch of old MBC daily dramas but I think they're region locked π I don't have appleTV but if they aren't region locked in the US I'll subscribe so fast.....
How could I forget Eunbyeol omgggg I tried to keep it together but seeing the news delivered to Haryu and his reaction broke me π Samdo helping him through that ππ it killed me when Samdo was like "our daughters probably already met and are playing with each other" π
Haryu sinking lower and lower makes sense lol shit depending on where you watch the title is either queen of ambition or king of ambition π this is going to be one of the more interesting games of cat and mouse in a kdrama
Not Cha Jung-Won π I miss her! I WISH we had a Cha Jung-Won or Shin Hwa-Kyung (from Secrets and Lies) here.…
I'm crossing my fingers that the follow ups to Pearl in Red and this deliver on this lol
Don't Be Swayed sounds wild I'm adding it to my list.
And I want to watch dangerous woman so bad (for ko eunmi but hearing that the antagonist is the real protagonist?) it's just impossible to find, even a raw version π
I think the only drama worse than WIAV is the two sisters. Like those dramas are so bad it takes effort to get on their level lolll
Villain origin story π everyone here has high hopes for these ppl to suddenly turn dark .. theyβre dorks…
My off the rails prediction is Baekho is the child of the Geumsoon and the chairmans son ππππ the first man takes on a whole new meaning. Instead of first love it really means first son π
The synopsis does say- "love turns into a weapon".A Baek Ho villain arc- I would love that and that will…
"writers wasted so much time on stupidities"
This is exactly why I think the characters are going to keep messing around until episode 118, then the writers will remember there's actually a plot going on π€£
The synopsis does say- "love turns into a weapon".A Baek Ho villain arc- I would love that and that will…
I have given up trying to understand the writers logic lol I'm just strapped in for a very wild (read: frustrating) ride for these last 30 episodes ππ
They have so much to address but not a lot of time to address those things
Not Cha Jung-Won π I miss her! I WISH we had a Cha Jung-Won or Shin Hwa-Kyung (from Secrets and Lies) here.…
Omggggg yes!!! Jeongwon would absolutely destroy Hwayoung there would be no question about it. And Hwakyung would absolutely use Baekho and Junho for some corporate warfare.
A graceful liar really spoiled me π and now I can't help but to think that Lee Dohyun would've bodied this scenario π is it too late to switch writers? lol
Re: Hwayoung... I said the same thing after watching yesterday's episode - this drama is like woman in a veil where the antagonist is really the secret protagonist. Especially since no one can stop her π€£ I swear Jeongin from Snow White's Revenge walked so Hwayoung could run
Made the executive decision to watch today's episode on my laptop as opposed to my TV because I was serious when I said I don't want to see Jangmi cry over Baekho after yesterday. I'm not ashamed to say I fast forwarded through their entire date. I caught a bit of Baekho running holding Jangmi's letter and all I can say is this better trigger his villain origin story because this ain't it... like at all!!! She didn't even have the bravery to say that she is going to marry Junho... Baekho will find out tomorrow.
ONCE AGAIN I am asking why people keep thinking Baekho is too soft to learn the truth about Junho's parentage. What do Taepyung and Jangmi expect to happen? Baekho to self destruct? Come on now.
Speaking of Baekho you mean to tell me that he's a Ma?! You know what this means - Jangmi and Baekho can't end up with each other. What is the screenwriter planning with this twist.... tbh it feels kind of unnecessary considering all the unturned stones in the plot and there's like ... 31 episodes left. Hopefully this doesn't get extended lol. But back to Baekho... how the hell does he have blood ties to the Ma family....
"This is harder than revenge" "this is my punishment for not protecting my dad" "I wish tomorrow would never come!" Whatever Jangmi! Your pain is self-inflicted.
At least Junho has Youngja in his corner... which triggered Hwayoung lmaoooo girl bye you literally abandoned him as an infant while Youngja (and Nambong) stepped up to the plate.
Tomorrow's episode looks annoying ... why is Junho punching Baekho in a cremation hall... why the hell is Jangmi thinking she is going to get away with living as Seorin.... does she have Ripley syndrome now? Relax Cha Jeongwon.
Say it with me: poor communication kills
Meanwhile, Hwayoung's going to up the ante with Nambong because she's feeling inferior to Youngja. Yikes. This screenwriter is fond of weaponizing relationships as a form of revenge I see... can't you think of anything else?
Also I'm plugging Queen's House here because Eunjung can do SO much more than what this script is requiring... Jaein would never fumble a revenge plot like this!!
Wholly agree tat Jump Me shldn't pose the challenge to JH. He was initially willing to reason. Obviously JH took…
I like your idea! After the accident Seorin should've gotten plastic surgery or something because they would be fun to watch. Iirc when Seorin and Jangmi first switched places I remember being Jangmi being shocked that Seorin isn't as nice as she thought. That could've lead into some excellent conflict...
Re: Junho! I agree Junho's reaction to Hwayoung being his mother was excellent. I had feared that he would just follow her but he's sticking to his guns and we love that for him. (And I love how he doubled down once Jangmi explained everything lol) The whole thing with him getting possessive over Jangmi was so unnecessary and felt... out of character.
I swear if he doesn't get a happy ending after surviving abandonment trauma and leukemia I am taking 3 stars off my final review on principle....
You are right. Jang Mi did search Seo Rin's bedroom, but that was about it. You also make some good points about…
It's so illogical. I feel like this show will end with Hwayoung's own ambition doing herself in, or she'll die ... Jangmi's kinda bad at this revenge thing lol
Have been wondering about Seo Rin's evidence too. She transferred it from her laptop to the flash drive- so did…
I don't think Jangmi has a plan lol
Another thought that came to me... The wedding might not even happen since every major thing (that actually furthers the plot further) tends to get interrupted ie literally every time Jangmi attempts to expose Hwayoung to the chairman something happens.
With how this drama is going (and how late in the series the marriage is) I am hoping that Baekho and Taepyung crash the ceremony and bust into the wedding hall with Seorin π€£
Havent watched today's episode yet .... but I am at work thinking : what exactly will be different if Jangmi marries Junho?
It's not like Jangmi is marrying into Junhos family, Junho and Hwayoung live together and by marrying him she would get access to Hwayoung's household..that would make more sense. It's not like Junho and Hwayoung have a close mother-son relationship and her presence would weaken that bond, which would also make more sense.
Jangmi's been living with Hwayoung for like 40-50 episodes but it never crossed her mind to start looking for proof. Oh wait it did, when she first entered the house: whatever happened to Seorin's lipstick shaped USB with the "proof"? Last I remember was Sanwol taking it and that was like what? Episode 55? That USB disappeared into the void.
I like how both domestic and international audiences are taking this marriage plot negatively π well back to work...
Wholly agree tat Jump Me shldn't pose the challenge to JH. He was initially willing to reason. Obviously JH took…
Yesss Seorin waking up and coming after Jangmi is the only thing that'll bring some sense to her π€£ hard agree that her revenge is juvenile. Especially since Hwayoung has literally committed felonies...
Jangmi plays checkers, Hwayoung plays chess....
Junho is actually my favorite of the MLs he's been my favorite ever since the press releases described him as a cold city man lol. So I want a little more for him that's not him chasing/being baited by Jangmi. And considering all he's been through I hope he gets a happy ending....
I suppose Hongju has to do something of note since the writer forgot that she was supposed to be a villain lol
Youngja is the MVP of this episode!!! She said "these hands are rated E for everyone!" Her slapping the shit out of Hwayoung added 10 years to my life! By far the most enjoyable part of these last few episodes π€£π€£ she's about to unleash hell on Hwayoung... Jangmi WISHES!

This feels like it's going to be a slow burn tbh
The most logical thing is like you said.. Baekho's original family having a part in the creation of Dream Group.
It makes the most sense which means the screenwriter is going to completely ignore that option and go for something more convulted π€£
