Why is KyungChae is so mad about chairman having a romantic life? Her anger doesn't seem to be particular to Lucia. Even if Chairman had hooked up with more age-appropriate Stella, she would have still been piping hot mad.

ooh, didn't think of that possibility... should be interesting if that pans out!

Interesting real life story. I heard of something similar but more scandalous from a gym friend years ago. She went home and was totally taken aback by the swirling gossip. So in a certain party, a famous businessman of that area walked in with his girlfriend and everyone was totally taken aback - the girlfriend was his daughter-in-law!!!!!!!
Basically she got annoyed with her husband (the son) who didn't have any of the attributes of his father that made him successful. Their marriage was rocky from the start and just devolved. Not sure when the affair started but at that moment, they were separated and on the way to divorce.
Businessman had no qualms or embarrassment about what society taught and was openly flaunting that this girl was his girlfriend. Meanwhile his wife and son were hiding in shame and not meeting people.

A haircut in kdramas always signify some sort of emotional leap for the character. There was also super dramatic music with the scene. Maybe they are showing that she will be against everyone including her father?

So the revenge plan is becoming clearer -- basically since they took MiSo's life, the plan is to take what is precious from them. So with Chairman, it is the company he holds dear to his heart; with KyungChae, it is Seri as well as the company.
KyungChae and Chairman's relationship is so weirdly antagonistic. I won't be surprised if it turns out that she had something to do with the death of SooJung's mom... There are more secrets to come out...
Wasn't expecting KyungChae to get a makeover with that new hairstyle. Wonder why though?

Since it is SeungJae's stepmom, they may not be biologically or legally related. Otherwise, we are less likely to have this unneeded triangle.

Exactly! She is far more interesting in the brief scene and you wonder what is their dynamic...

Is she his coworker? If so, they had more chemistry than he and EunOh. They really come across like siblings. It is so boring. Sigh.

Eun Oh comes across like a creepy stalker. Why does she push Ji Hyuk for a reason? If he doesn't want to date her, he doesn't. Why can't she take a 'no' which is valid answer. He is not obligated to give her any reasons. She pushed him and then is shocked that he is blunt and mean. What a weirdo. 😐
I really hope that he does not circle back to her later. Please, can we another pairing for Ji Hyuk. I don't like this chick.

Still watching woman who swallowed the sun. Just not inspiring much reaction from me to make comments regularly.
Fingers crossed -- we get more square. I hate the love triangle trope. Then it just turns to betting session where each team argues which coupling is better.

It could be like the old weekend drama "what happens to my family?" where the dad (who was terminally ill) stayed till the end of 50 episodes....

Since this is supposed to be romantic drama, I guess we are in for a love triangle. Not a fan of the trope and there is no real chemistry between the leads besides friendship. Instead, can it just be a story about three friends who remain friends while going through different life changes and events? Probably not but putting my wish out there anyways. 🤷

They could have paid some thug but instead it is TaeJoo pretending. At some point, Seri will recognize TaeJoo when she runs into him with Stella or with Lucia. She will then figure it out that she got played.
P.S -- I want to see more story for TaeJoo than just him popping up occasionally

I don't feel sorry for Seri. 🤷 She is way too ill-mannered and rude. Nothing about her lack of emotional regulation and breakdowns makes me feel like she deserves a chance. She is selfish and entitled. She cares for no one but herself. As punishment, she should really get slapped by life hard so that she gets a full reality check.

That said, it feels like the ultimate revenge would not be Lucia vs GyungChae -- instead it will be Seri herself who will be the trojan horse that brings this family down in flames.

It kind of feels like Seri is getting off too easy though if the characters are starting to feel sorry for her.... I hope the writer does a decent job if they want the audience to feel that way.

Given how Stella keeps talking about wanting a grandchild, do you think Seri will be magically redeemed? Or will she face some sort of consequences/punishment with what happened to MiSo? Or will she discovering the past and what all was kept from her be her punishment? How do you expect to play out?

Ah, that is a great take -- so that was why Reina kept saying that Misa was playing the victim. Basically people pleasing is not a good trait and it is not just romantic relationships that can get twisted but also friendships!

That is a fantastic take and really quite deep. It makes sense to me now why Misa was taking accountability -- it wasn't an apology to Reina but an apology to herself for staying in a friendship that served neither of them.

Can anyone explain the twisted dynamic between Misa and Reina? I really didn't understand their final confrontation and how they interpreted their history. Basically both hated each other but for some reason, they were still friends for years and pretended??????

When will Stella herself start making moves instead of using Lucia? Am curious to see what that would entail because I think she will be far more interesting to watch as she knows how to hold on to her emotions without giving any indications
