Exactly! Only Park in the office knew that Sa Eon was going to the villa. Asuming the culprit was close to SE, this is another point against Park🙈

Heeju being there is a coincidence for now but then again sjnce Sang U was the one who reache out to her, it could mean anything🙈

Exactly...as a trained psychologist, he would be good at masking his emotions too and he himself admitted that he has been planning for a long time (even using his YT channel and background to gain as much attention as possible).

Even the Twin theory can still work on him since the Nun at the orphanage joined after the incident so it's possible that she joined after he left (so she wouldn't know what he looked like as a kid)🫠

Ngl I'm loving the fact that his character is so complex instead of makjng him part of a whiney love triangle🙈

Considering the kidnapper situation, i get what you mean. I kept waiting for a jump scare since the kidnapper did say he was coming to get the phone too. The scene made me feel low key anxious 🙈

Based on what we know about the assistant so far, he has been by Sa Eon's side for a verrrry long time- even long before they joined the Presidential Office (ep 1- Chief Kang implied that Park was a former reporter/ later one of the female coworkers mentioned that SE brought Park to his team).

Sa Eon may be meticulous for the most part, but he seems to be a little too comfortable with Park- even enough to get his help with Bodyguards and choosing a home for Heeju's dad. We also know that Park is tech savvy or at the very least has tech savvy connections. He could have figured out HeeJu's connection by hacking through something may be?

One thing I'm curious is about SE's marriage records. How easy is to access marrital records in South Korea? If they registered their marriage, there should be a record somewhere right? 🙈

Not yet ...but i think this could be foreshadowing. The preview indicates that Sa Eon survived the fire (and it's public knowledge since he was brought to a hospital). It would be too difficult to fake his death in a place where he doesn't have control of.


It's hard to say honestly since they've changed the plot quite abit.

It's his way of protecting his heart probably?

No SL= no way to communicate with Heeju= no way to connect with her on an emotional level.

He may have known a few basic signs like "it's ok" due to his exposure (and he is smart enough to figure them out if the same terms come up alot like how international fans know certain korean words)🙊

SPOILER IF YOU DIDN'T WATCH EP 8!!!



Based on ep 8, our Sa Eon doesn't seem to have any connection with the Orphanage at least at the time of the disappearances. He already had a guardian before he was adopted.

I agree with Bowwie's comment about the Twin theory- it's the most logical one so far 🙈

The real Sa Eon is probanly the kidnapper because SE's mum and Sang U both reacted strangely when "odd eye" was mentioned (+ the guy was waaay too fixated on SE in the hospital scene).

How poetic...and true!🤣

Oooh....good eye! I totally didn't realize why they showed the shoes! You just made this even more intense 🙈🙈🙈

Like SU could have met the dad first to get more clues for whatever reason and while returning may have seen SE coincidentally....ORRRRRR....he could have hurt the dad and then decided to follow SE to complete the job/ give himself a good alibi by saving them?


Sang U did look really creepy during his confrontation with SE....almost viper like the way he was focussing on SE (then again it could be that he was blindsided by SE's confrontation and was too excited about the new crumbs he got)🙈🙈🙈

True, even as a spokesperson, it would have been difficult to set it up last minute since even the call happened way past 10pm...but eh that's kdrama magic?🤣

If I'm not mistaken, it had been a few days since the accidentand HeeJu was mostly there to get bed rest since like she said, all her tests were back normal in a previous scene. If it's bed rest, then may be she was able to sneak out of the hospital (specially with the help of kdrama magic again🙈)


Kdramas aren't complete without a carrousel ride at the very least anyway🙈

It is an interesting theory ngl.

I agree with you on the fact that Mama Baek may have known that her son was alive but didn't have any contact with him? I mean why would she send a message on national television and risk blowing her cover if her son was only one call away? She definitely regrets her past actions though so will probably join forces with him eventually? She kind of reminds me of the mum in Flowers of Evil 🙈

Since the drama revolves around politics, perhaps the reason why the Hongs might have been in trouble was because of some kind of political scandel? Perhaps something to do with bribes? But since In Ah was a kid when the accident happened, idk why they'd target her unless it's because she is the heir of the Hong family?🙈

Ooooh yes! That makes more sense. Our Sa Eon would have been too young to notice this/ may have not spent long enough to notice the eye mutation but his dad would have and never forgot about it!

The real Sa Eon does seem kooky enough to wait till the EOD to cause chaos 🙈🤣

I absolutely adore Lovely Runner but I'm glad that WTPR and LR do not really have to compete together in this awards season. I honestly can't choose between the 2 atm. The genres are so different and similar at the same time, and they've both got me hooked 🙈

I really hope WTPR will have a strong finish just like LR...it's been so promising so far🩷

Sang U mentioned about a portrait that was in the villa when he was with Yuri.

Assuming it was a family portrait, may be he saw the ring in it? As a kid, he would have been more interested in the "cool" dragon ring than the people posing so that's why he might still remember the ring and he's trying to use the ring to identify the mask kid's identity?

Yes- the person who keeps texting the kidnapper🙊

You do make a good point. Either way, it's going to hurt 🫠🫠🫠

Unless the kidnapper heard SE's dad make the call may be? But I can't imagine why Sa Eon's dad would be allowed to know that the real SE is alive.😅😅😅

Haha even i don't really want Park to be the culprit since it's going to hurt SE alot.
However, since it has to be somebody close to Sa Eon AND tech savvy, unlike Park, Sang U doesn't really fit the bill🙈

I mean for instance, how would Sang U know about SE's private office? Also how would Sang U know that SE would be visiting the villa at that exact time and have time to set up the projector, etc and yet not wait long enough for HeeJu to see SE leave the house? Since the Master wants to cause a rift between Heeju and SE, this would have been a perfect opportunity.

The paramedics probably prioritized the most severely injured first (plus they would anyway have to be moved to reach HeeJu)

In reality it probably was only a few seconds, but to Heeju (specially in her delirious state), it must have felt like an eternity?

I feel that way too 🙈

Whatever the secret was, it was compelling enough to let Chairman Hong quit the investigation of his own son's death and In Ha's disability (would love to add that he cared about HeeJu too but I'm still not feeling it).

I'd love to know what forced Chairman Hong to even consider letting In Ha be part of the Baek family even for a moment🫠🫠🫠🫠

Probably fake...so far HeeJu only said that she started to fantasize an ordinary life with SE after the dad's incident- not that she fell in love with him at that point.

Given her obsessive SL practice, i'm guessing she has loved him for a long time too (but may be didn't realize it or surpressed it too?)

Also we don't really have enough episodes to add another guy into the mix...unless, Wonwoo will be making a cameo as himself and HJ is a fan (you know that Sa Eon would probably still get jealous🤭)?
