Dosan went to the party on his... The deal was off b/w HJP and dosan at that time and HJP didn't even know he would come... HJP was going to tell dalmi the truth before dosan entered...
Then after dalmi coming to the office it was dosan who stopped HJP from telling the truth to dalmi as he wanted to spend more time with her... He wanted to tell the truth only after realising except for his hands, everything else dalmi likes is not about him... Then he saw grandma and her condition, and he again played along...
When dalmi asked HJP on why he went along with dosan's lie of being rich, HJP was going to tell the truth but it was dosan who came up with the lienof them being like brothers..

So stop behaving like dosan is some innocent naive baby that got tricked by hjp and grandma... He is a guy in his late 20s and knew what he was doing...stop blaming someone for the actors of an adult... They both lied and that's it... If HJP is a lying jerk then so is dosan...

I think hospital playlist is the kind of drama that first give a false assumption to the viewer and turns everything positively... Like there were a lot of characters and stories we thought would turn negative but wasn't...
I personally think the show won't have any negativity at all...

But njh seems to be in his new look... Anyway it's more than obvious that these two will end up together

You know the lying jerk thing fits perfectly to dosan as well... They both lied... Hjp atleast only lied to dalmi for grandma's sake whereas dosan lies or hide things from his parents as well... Also dosan lied so that he could spend more time with dalmi and hjp lied for grandma and dalmi... He himself had no problem coming to dalmi and say the truth about the letters... Grandma asked him to cover it up and he did... Hjp didn't lie for himself...
Grandma is team dalmi and not dodal... If dalmi starts having feelings for hjp then grandma won't mind that as well... Infact she will be more than happy...

If hjp was immature and childish he wouldn't have been rich and successful... ep 10 itself shows how matured hjp is...

Revenge? What Revenge?

Strong actors rarely get overshadowed... Just looks at hospital playlist... Every one of them are amazing actors and none of them got overshadowed by the other...
If two strong actors do a drama then the only way one get more support is if the character is more well written or one is more famous than the other... But if they both are written with equal importance then none will outshine the other... They will stand on their own...

Best not to get excited with offscreen pics... She just posted a pic with her co-star like everyone...

There are slice of life dramas which are closer to reality but dramas with popular actors with a colourful setting like this tend to be unrealistic even thought they say it is a realistic setting... Morals and principles are way too high in these kind of dramas and female leads stay extremely faithful to the male lead...
I guess strong woman do bong soon is the only drama I can think of were the female lead even after having an enormous crush on the second lead still fell for the male lead but in there the 2nd lead didn't had a huge backstory so audience were that attached to him...

Whatever that is, it's between two sisters and dalmi is capable enough to talk back to her sister if she wants and if what dosan said to injae was correct what injae told dalmi was also right...
It's not like injae is a bully and dalmi is a scared cat infront of her and cannot take a stand for herself... Injae isn't the typical evil female SL that bullies and belittles the female lead for no reason and dalmi isn't a damsel in distress that needs saving... These are two capable women who can fight their own battle... If dalmi cannot handle her own sister's harsh world's which she is used to how is she gonna handle the questions by the inverters...

If injae don't take crap from her stepdad who she considered as a father for so long then why would she become tight-lipped in from of dosan...

He looks so much like exo suho in those pics...

Whenever I saw his, I always felt he kind of looked like someone but never figured out who even when he worked with d.o...
But these pics make him look so much like suho...
He is like a taller suho with dimples...

We are talking about kdramas... She won't become close to hjp while being in a long distance relationship with dosan... That's emotional cheating which kdrama female leads won't do... If dalmi can stay faithful to a penpal for 15 long years she will definitely stay with sosan if she chooses dosan...
If she gets close to hjp while dosan is away then it will be only after they breakup before dosan goes to US...

If they want this drama to show dosan and dalmi just making it big on their own individually then dalmi might end up choosing hjp but this is kdrama we are talking about...
If dalmi and hjp ends up together then this drama might create kdrama history... The drama will certainly won't flop if she chooses hjp as almost everyone is in love with hjp and kim seon ho..

the ceo and cto thing wont work in the long run... since its kdrama and dosan will literally do anything dalmi says they wont have any conflict but in reality after dosan gets experience and starts thinking without dalmi in mind they will have conflicts and dalmi literally will be a useless ceo as the other 2 guys will mostly agree with dosan...

both of them lost their bangs after the time jump...

if her character is written in a way where she dont care then she dont care...
kdramas work like that only... if the leads fell in love and was apart from each other for years they will still be in love with each other...
after all its kdrama and they dont do 'realistic things'... everything works on destiny, faith and pure love...

I personally think a 3rd person should not interfere when 2 sisters are fighting...
It's not like dalmi don't know how to deal with her mean sister... Dalmi didn't had a comeback because injae pointed out something that was going on in her head...
Are they showing that a girl who don't get intimidated by her super rich stepdad and brother got intimidated by someone like dosan?
Going by how cunning and clever injae is she would have gotten back at him as well... But since he is the male lead and she is slightly on the negative side, they won't show the lead guy loosing to the 2nd female lead...

Like hjp told dalmi, one can either be a good person or a ceo.. injae chose to be the ceo and she by far is better than dalmi... Ofcourse she has the advantage of having more experience in the field but she is a capable lady and that's why her stepdad used her to run his company...

But since this is kdrama it's not gonna happen... He is gonna be in love with dalmi no matter how rich or confident he gets...

Also when dosan gets rich and confident, dalmi will also grow professionally and personally...

If their growth is away from each other, it's quite unrealistic that they both harbour feelings for each other for years while being apart... Their current relationship is nothing special to be remembered atleast for dalmi... For dosan it's still his first love and first relationship... Until now it looks like dalmi entered into a relationship solely because she thought he was her penpal... They randomly started holding hands and hugging... Even their kissing scene seemed quite disconnected... Going by how Love struck dosan is, they are never shown to act like a couple in love except for the beach scene...
Even now their relationship status seems complicated... Dalmi don't really acknowledge dosan as her bf...

But if dalmi can be in love with her penpal for 15 yrs without seeing him then the drama can clearly show her still being in love with dosan after 3 yrs... It's pretty obvious dosan will make it big only to come back and get dalmi and dalmi will be all starry eyed when she sees the super rich and confident dosan even if she herself might be rich and confident herself...

If it's 2 episodes per week and 12 episodes in total then it will end in one and a half month

NJH should not choose dramas with strong second male leads... he always gets overshadowed and to top it, dosan isnt the charismatic charming male lead...
he improved a lot from what i saw of him in weightlifting fairy and bride of haebok but he isnt exactly a very strong actor with amazing screen presence... he can easily get overshadowed by a better actor...
one of the main reasons why kim seon ho shinned even more is because NJH and suzy arent exactly very strong actors even though they are not bad actors...

i dont feel like it was supposed to attract western audience...

the startup is based on IT field so to make it to the top they need to attract american market... i dont have much knowledge about IT field but i guess US companies show interest in IT based startups in other countries( esp asian countires) and they invest in it.. its also to show that the opportunities given by sandbox can help people to end up in silicon valley... thats why they constantly refer the US and has actors like saha and alex who are from the outside...

kdramas always prioritize their korean audience over their international audience and they promote korean culture as much as possible through kdramas...
korean government uses kdrama, kpop as soft powers... so they will never completely westernize kdramas to attract more western audience...
people watch kdramas because its different from western dramas so why westernize kdramas?

won injae is the only exception and she isnt getting enough screentime...
alex and saha would be perfect...
i guess even yongsan is a better choice than chulsan as he didnt go around irritating saha like chulsan...
