You watched S1 so you know more than I do , as I watched only Season 2.
From my perspective, mountain gods like other mosters/ creatures have all those powers regardless of their status. Lee Yeon, Moo Young, Hong Joo and Moon Bear (I don`t know his name right now) have trained to become mountain gods. They were the best of many other deities. They were chosen and with that, came up responsabilities and personal sacrifices. Look at Lee Rang who has powers but he is not a mountain god. And other creatures who are powerful enough to fight to a mountain god. I don`t know why Hong Joo or Moon Bear have lost their status as mountain gods (that`s maybe a story for different episodes) but regardless of that, they didn`t cut ties with Taluipa for exemple. Hong Joo had to be punished when she broke the rules. To protect a mountain was a job, from what I saw. Now they live among humans and they have super powers but the good guys are constrained by the rules (don`t kill a human for exemple).
Like Marvel superheroes have different powers and some of them are heroes to fight the bad guys, similar, Lee yeon, Hong Joo, Moo young, Moon bear, Lee rang and others are heroes in eastern stories.

Yes, we don`t know what happened with Hong Joo in 2023. If there will be another season maybe we`ll find out. Before the time travel events from S2, the three friends were separated and never contacted each other. Now they connected again in 1938, and it is possible to rekindle their relationship in the future. There are many years to cover so we don`t know anything unless they will make it seasonal.

I know that they wanted a season 3 to show what happened with the original mountain god. It will be good to find answers as they left it open. This first mountain god has the former mountain gods powers combined, so teoretically, the heroes must reunite to take down a more powerful opponent.

I did not watch S1 so I can`t tell you much but from what I understood, Lee Rang had abandonment issues. He is half gumiho, the brothers have the same father but Lee Rang never knew his father. Lee Yeon saved him when he was a child (his mother abandoned him as well) and later, he felt abandoned by his brother too when he abdicated his post as guardian mountain and work with Taluipa in exchange for his lover's reincarnation. He hold a grudge thinking his brother abandoned him to search for his girldfriend reincarnation. That`s what I know. Lee Rang loves his brother but in the same time he feels resentment towards him for choosing his lover over him. He is like a boy who wants to antagonize his brother, looking for attention.
Perhaps you should watch S1 if you are interested to know in detail what happened with gumiho brothers.

You can watch S2 without watching S1.

1. Eun Ho is not Yoo Ri. They wanted Kim Yong Ji in the drama and gave her a role but Eun Ho is a human who just looks like Yoo Ri.

2. All mountains gods are powerful and have the same status but they have different powers. Lee yeon is a shape shifter and can control the storms , Mu Yeong controls fire and can heal, Hong Joo is physical strong and can not get drunk. I don`t know what super power has Moon Bear (the fourth mountain god) who appeared in season 1 a few times. They said he owned the Mirror of the Moon, one of the four gems of the four mountain spirits. I guess they could explore more about the mountain gods in S3 (if they will produce it) but I doubt it.

The team of Shin Cha Il and Hwang Dae Woong is so funny. They are totally opposite in personality and that`s what makes it so funny to watch. I want more.

Dae Woong and Seo Jin are not blood related.Does the youngest of Hwang brothers have a different mother? The question remain. Why they were so distant? Dae woong must have felt so lonely in that house that only a housekeeper and her daughter gave him some comfort. He consider them as real family.

I can understand that he came to the rescue of those who were investigated of coruption but to start an investigation just because there is a suspision between his relationship with Yoon Seo Jin it is too much. But It could be something else also. We only saw the preview and we don`t have the whole picture.

It is hard to not notice that the current CEO has ulterior motives. Many of his `good intention` were against people who support VP or former president.
At least, the man behind the recent rumors had a precise target from the beginning.
He started the rumor about a certain person in the Audit team that matched with Han soo`s situation and later had pictures with Seo Jin and VP. Now Dae woong is investigated.
It was time for the show to explore a little more Hwang brothers. It is a start . Now Cha Il will investigate Vice president. I hope there is a serious case not just the possible relationship between him and Seo Jin. That`s all.

Seo Jin told him `uncle` and her mother seems to be Dae woong`s older sister but I won`t be surprised that they were not really related by blood. But it could be that they had the same mother, as we all assumed. Dae Woong has the surname of the father (Hwang) and he was not an illegitimate child.
They did not mention but we assumed he is a half brother because his sister in law said that he will be removed from JU Construction when the former CEO (the older brother) will recover.
I think he grew up with his father but he was the rebel, the `black sheep` of the family. They did not take him seriously. But there are people in the company who support him and not the current CEO. I wonder why. There are some people of the former CEO who tend to support Hwang Dae woong rather than Hwang Se Woong.

My question is.... why Shin Cha Il wants to investigate Seo Jin in the fraudulent employment case when the team have investigated her already and she was fine. She had good grades, they saw the interview, the test results. What else do they want more? I can assume they thought she has a connection with the VP (I guess they think it is a romantic relationship until they will find that they are siblings) but the relationship doesn`t affect anyone. She doesn`t work directly with him. Do they think he/she falsified the results of the test? I find it exagerated. I think Hwang Se Woong wanted the audit to investigate his brother. That`s for sure but I don`t think the audit has enough evidence to start an extern audit investigation to find dirt about Vice President just because of a rumor on internet after they investigated Yoon Seo Jin already. I wonder if Shin Cha Il doesn`t realise he is used as an weapon right now.

I am curious about the Hwang brothers. The youngest seem to have a different mother but he grew up with his father and later he became close to his other family?

It looks like Choi Min Ho is a rookie writer.

I don`t remember exactly the words, but one of the elders, an important shareholders, I assume, knew about the former CEO condition and told the current CEO that he deosn`t want to see a fight between brothers. But there is a fight for power. It is not in front of the eyes, but not everything is alright. Hwang Se Woong looks so `innocent`! He wants to fight corruption at his company! I am not buying. It looks like the company`s hope to recover is Technology Development Team succes. The bullying case was just a scratch. Let see what other problems there are there.

In the last episode, Shin Cha-Il was chasing Mr. Im to the roof but he found the CEO instead. I even thought that Hwang Se-Woong was the culprit or made him escape. LOL Of course he was not but I don`t think that scene was random. It might be a subltle hint that the CEO is 'providing' the cases for the Audit team. I can`t shake off the thought that the present CEO is using Shin Cha Il for his own interest.

Hwang Dae Woong might seem the bad guy here because he took the side of the corrupt people but he is trying to protect some pieces from the `chess board` in his fight to survive at the company. Seo Gil-Pyo showed that he is on VP`s side, he is out. The other guy, Yang Jae-Seung , almost was out too. Good thing he was not involved directly in hiring his sister in law. Pyeon In-Ho, one of the right hand of the former president, out. This is not a coincidence. The problem for Hwang Se Woong is that if Shin Cha Il will have to investigate him, he won`t escape because he hired him.

Yeah, it is possible. I see the curent CEO as a wolf in sheep clothes. Even if he is not responsable for his older brother`s condition, he is more ambitious than the show might let us to believe so far.

I did not pay too much attention to the relationship between Hwang brothers but it is an interesting dynamic. The oldest is in the coma and the other two have not a good relationship. When the wife of former CEO (the oldest brother) said to Hwang Se-Woong that when Hwang Gun-Woong will wake up they will fire Hwang Dae-Woong, it was obvious they don't like him. The youngest is a half brother and they don`t want to see him there. It is obvious that Dae Woong is struggling to stay at JU Construction (there is a subtle power struggle) but I think, despite showing a happy face when his brother is having signs of recovering, the CEO (Hwang Se-Woong) is not really that happy. He wants to remain in power. He brought Shin Cha-Il to Audit Team for his own interest. Cha Il is doing the best to discover coruption but I don`t think Hwang Se Woong is interested in having a clean company. He is happy to dispose the old people, the people who are clossed to the former CEO and the vice president. I have a feeling that he is using Shin Cha Il right now. Let see how happy he will be when the Audit team will investigate his own people.

“Virtuous Sales,” is a remake of the 2016 British series “Brief Encounters” . I read about the series and I watched ep 3 (that was available) and now I know what to expect/what is happening.

Yeah.... the cast is very good.
I laughed when I saw Lee Sung Min in the poster. Does he have a long hair in this film?
I usually don`t watch kmovies but I will search for this film.

Yeon Woo Jin`s character, Kim Do-hyun, was a police officer in Gangnam and then he has to go to work in a rural police station. What he has done to go there?

I have a feeling it will be a comedy in the sense of unintentional hilarity. Imagine one of the female leads (probably Jung Sook) arriving at the police station after an arguing with a customer, being forced to show the products she has to sell. I am laughing already. I bet this kind of scene will be in the drama.

And the female characters will have to sell those adult products in the rural area where everyone knows everyone and they are more conservative than people in urban areas? Talk about hard time for them.

Actor Yeon Woo Jin will be the male lead in the drama `Quiet Sales`. It is a comedy drama and the story took place in a rural village in Jeolla Province. I kind of like the vibe of dramas in the province set up. It has potential.

I think Yeon Woo Jin will be paired with Kim So Yeon in this drama. I like it.

A quick Google search and you`ll find the answer. Lingerie, bondage, vibrator, lubes, sex toys.... I think it is the first time they will try this kind of set up but let see if the story will be good.

Not necessary but if you like the genre you could watch it.

I like the aventure dramas, that took place in an expedition. And it is a sageuk. I am interested. I want to see Lee Sung Min too.
