finally FL acheived her dreams indepently

❤ animated intro layout integrated with character highlights.. so thoughtful. some practical side to the story worked well and and plot didn't get too heavy or burdensome. loved the series.I'm soooooo happy with the ending. Finally!!!Female lead did accomplish what she had always wanted to do. Honestly I thought "oh no here we go again the FL is now so happy and comfortable the knight in shinning armor will save the day for her and it did feel like that but they gave it nice twist in last two episode and the conclusion I had hoped for and what the show deserved. After all it's not just romantic story it's story of people dreaming to get their own house. Completely understand their breakup and for 3 years, cause of course it's not possible to live with so much emotional burden next to person you've loved and left and still be able to achieve your dream. I don't agree with the timeline though cause we do see FL struggling while she was in office. so I thought maybe she would need 5years for that.

(P.S One thing that I didn't agree with is small part where chief is complaining and drinking with CEO's secretary and sec comments that instead of complaining he tried to learn and hence achieved something. I mean whoa you've got no understanding of the kinds of bosses people get. Even in context to the series I don't think the CEO would have developed any caring side if he had not come across Editor Na won, and second point no body in their right mind divulges trade secret, even to their secretary. It's shown here to glimpse at hardworking side of CEO. In reality to learn from you superiors and to put it in play requires much more hoops to jump. I don't blame Chief editor to be nagger, even though it did annoy me from first episode to last at least he was constant.)

Greek tragedy happening in korea

Daesan is heaven, the big players are trying to be god. after watching the series, Its like every character got what it deserved and more so than anyone the deokhui.
The chairman: even though friendly he is constantly showing his true colors by dangling a bait in front of dongju and asking him for help at every turn. By the end of the season he barely gives in and that after twisting so many hands is he convinced to handover the position to dongju. He keeps on clinging to the Son he procreated but forgets the ambition of his legit kids who are girls.The eldest is lazy and just keeps seething over anyone trying to take power but herself does nothing more than holding shares and housing a husband like one does like a pet owner. only here her value as women and mother of a son is more than her individual identity so i wonder is she a pet or her husband. She has a kid with her first husband who is a girl, but always dreams about her son owning daesan, like why not her girl, oh but for her they have prepared for her to go marry to another house. one would assume that this women would refuse such archaic arrangement, after studying from nyu, oh no it gets juicy. she keeps her relationship with her first guy a secret and marries into the plan we can say to how it was laid out for her. She also is never considered an heir to handle daesan by her grand pa or even she is hardly seen trying except her shares that she keeps and fights for.i will give her 2 points for that but her overall traits are nothing to be praised about. She paints material comforts that show happiness it seems, and her boyfriend also likes them which says a lot about both of them (meaning both her material creature), atleast that's how i see it.
yang jang seon is a manipulative, power hungry, self proclaimed country lover, who stops at nothing to get what he wants. He gaslights people after he had made them do several things or made things happen to them by saying you are to be blamed. He accuses the second husband ill do as very caring father which was troublesome he says after a mission to kill donju fails. But he himself is trying to extort and bribe for his nephew when he was in school and for his upcoming divorce. But again he is not faithful to anyone not even to his own family because he can hurt them and manipulate there life as well to get what he wants. ill do i felt sorry for him for only a second, but both his actions and how he wed into a family of his friend is hard to watch. Also his friend, not that great of a guy, he says lots of big words and he does nothing. I agree when ihl do says to him when you are at the place you are now you are acting too high and almighty. I agree. He gave lots of advice and none as friend. Even if he cant help as company why cant he do that as a friend. And i dont understand him running around with a kid he has no connection to that was again, trying to be too good. And with a wife who is compulsive hater of everything and is suspicious of everyone he should have known better.
Too many collateral damage during all the drama, and as you wonder about them surprise they sound it out too in the episode. As the show grows dark on every character, it does for seonu too. I hate the fact in every conglomerate series they throw in a humble beginning guy and somehow they always go power hungry mad. Are they trying to tell common public how incompetent they are for any powerful position. Of course it hard to come to terms with it all in one go but with gradual work and study can one learn right?I don't agree with nepotism that all these plot usually follow, but at least show the fight is on capabilities and not gender basis ranking than who is direct and indirect descendant.

In my review i have criticized every character because that's what the show does. It shows how unremarkable everyone is (except donju, sometimes) when it comes to falling prey to hunger for power and being deeply flawed.
