Ma Hoon, at least that's what the characters' chart says.

Right, the names are awesome. They basically explain the leads name in the end of ep 1 haha (or 2, depending on the format one is watching the show with). The Yang is probably from 양아치 right? hahaha anyway, for us the names are funny, but they show the lack of creativity of the writer of the webtoon hahah which makes it even more funny.

same. I am questioning whenever Jenny's and sun Woo's feeling for each other can be even called romantic love. She is seeing him more as a link to her past self and sacred haven. Like the only person who "truly knows her" and keeps her sane. And for him he is just fixated on the past and have a huge sense of responsibility. The connection between them is strong but I would never put them together in a romantic relationship.
I love Sun Woo and Hyun Ji tho. The relationship they have is more natural and well balanced.

tbh I don't quite remember how this drama made me feel, so it would be hard to recommend something similar... it's been 2 years after all...

one of the genres is romance + first 2 episodes (or 4, depends on what format you are watching it with) quite clearly shown who is into who. If I had to guess, Sun Woo will slowly get into Hyun Ji and give up on Jenny.

I like Gong Seung Yeon scenes when she is more quiet, but when she is screaming... it's just over the top. I don't feel god about her character here too...

I don't think so? There are some romance difficulties, but nothing I would describe as your typical kdrama love triangle.

If we believe the characters chart, Min Jae is 100% male lead and the end game :(

well the theme is really dark: mental health issue, murder, manipulation, abuse, ptsd, etc. Male lead instead of getting better is getting worse with every ep. I don't see how this all could lead to happy ending. But it also depends on what do you understand under the term "happy ending".

Ma Hoon (the silent leader matchmaker) is the male lead character that will end ep with Gae Ddong. Lee Soo (The King) is the 2nd lead. The characters chart shows love line between Ma Hoon and Gae Ddong, and only one sided love between GaeDdong and Lee Soo. Which is stupid tbh, coz they established in first 2 episodes that Gae Ddong at least strongly likes Lee Soo... But yeah, sadly Ma Hoon is the end game.

I don't think it has to end in a good way. It would make perfect sense for it to have tragic ending.

they will, it's shown in the characters chart. they are the end game. Poor Lee Soo

Yeah, before watching episodes I was ready to ship Gae Ddong with Ma Hoon since i love Kim Min Jae. But
Gong Seung Yeon has honestly way better chemistry with
Seo Ji Hoon and it's so frustrating ;/

Yeah, Ma Hoon, the "silent" leader dude. What frustrated me was that on the characters chart it showed the romance between him and Gae Ddong and that Lee Soo is in one sided love with Gae Ddong. They literally were about to get married and she is trying her best to find him. It's obvious she loves him. I don't know, I don;t like the romance in this drama... I prefer the king over the matchmaker...

I know who she will end up with but I already wish she did with the other dude. I might drop it because of that too...

I can tell you if you don't mind spoilers. You can check characters chart too to find out

I feel you on this one. Especially with how preview of ep 13 is kind of focused on them!

Up till episode 12 it was amazing, but eps 13 and 14... I don't know... lightsabers were a bit much for me hahaha

True. I mean i wrote that comment before watching episode 5. Now I feel like Joon Ho is a progressive, but is in conservatives just because of his father, and Dae Han is just all over the place. But we need to also remember that being more left or right leaning does not mean you have to agree with all the stuff in said ideology. Maybe (highly doubt it) Dae Han agrees with progressives in all aspect except from abortion + honestly I am so use to politicians calling themselves one thing and doing an opposite, this just looks really realistic for me. In Poland conservatives want to give high social aid/welfare to everyone, when the progressives want to take it back. Does not exactly fit the ideologies too hahaha

He is representing progressives because the other guy is conservative. He wanted to be in the show, he would call himself whatever is necessary to be part of the cast. At least that's what I think is happening. He goes with whatever gives him more opportunities.
