So far i love everything about the drama, the characters and the story. I too believe the Queen Dowager used to have a crush on Ian but was forced to settle for his brother as he was the actual successor. This is shown in many of her dialogues in the episodes so far. She has such a disdain for her dead husband for not having the same ambition as hers...she has now transferred that feeling towards her son because he reminds her of his father. She has seriously messed up priorities and I think our Jinmu might be a gray character and nudged her but she is truly unstable because if some perceived threat makes them cause brake failure in Huiju's car that's insane. Like she hasnt actually done anything offensive to them yet except enter their circle. Also thank god Ian wants to take the throne from his nephew cause he can see that his powerhungry sister in law doesn't care about the kid's wellbeing beyond him gaining more respect than Ian. I also loved the fact that Huiju has been treating the young king like a kid that he is ever since their first meeting. Maybe she recognized the lonely kid he is as she herself was one. Also Huiju's father is a POS who blamed her being born rather than face the fact that he was the reason his family fell apart. The audacity.
I think they are referring to the current emperor.
Then maybe that is Consort Shu's son and that would explain the heavy foreshadowing that is done for her brother who I feel was involved in the killing of Peiyi's father as well as the guy who ordered the ambush on Peiyi
I am just feeling what a waste of talents and life after achieving everything the two of them wanted.
I am fine with the tragedies but every case so far the victims have died at the end of case. The others it was understandable but this last case I feel like they went of their way to add that death which is why is felt so iffy to me. If she had died when she ingested poison it would have made more sense but they revived her and she got acknowledgement and achieved something then promptly died the next scene.
I like your theory because it sits well with mine. I feel that the writers have thrown several suspects at us…
It showed the manager and the ceo being in the company office while being on the call so they are definitely not the ones.
I am absolutely ready for the reveal next week. But I pray the show doesnt go all illogical in the last episodes and make the suspect someone completely unexpected. 😅 it would break my heart but more importantly my brain too.
That's exactly what I was thinking (including the fourth band member, which I also dismissed)... I think that's…
I hoped the prosecutor would finally investigate properly but after he pushed for the indictment yeah no there is no redeeming that man. He is too cowardly to face his father's dissappointment to pick a side of his own volition.
Omg, I feel like I'm back at square one now after Ep10. CEO Geum willing to share the audio recording is a huge…
My possible explanation to the earring thing is that Raik still had feelings for Hye joo which was evident in the earlier episodes. He still clung to the residual feelings he had for Hye joo and tried to protect her. It was only after being treated better by Sena and making peace with his past with Hye joo was he able to move on from that relationship. Hence the stopped wearing the earring recently comment.
But Sena and Raik could hear the door passkey being typed while the Ceo was on the call with wooseung and if I am not wrong didnt they show the manager guy standing near the ceo while he was talking on the phone.

Our theories match exactly lol. So far the drama has done a great job at keeping everything feeling pretty grounded and logical so I am hopping they stick the landing and dont mess up the ending. If they stick to logic then Hye Joo makes the most sense in terms of solving all the unanswered plot points so far. The fourth band member just doesnt have enough motive for the murder plus he also had an injured arm from the fight earlier in the day. Hye joo has the strongest motive apart from the ceo who could have orchestrated everything through the manager. Then again it doesn't solve the older case nor does it explain the earring. Also as per preview it looks as if Raik is confronting Jae hee but previews are cut up in a way that is almost always misleading so I dont think that is the case. Jae hee also doesnt have enough motivation he is a irritating brat sure but he did respect wooseung too much not to mention the new contract would have been beneficial to him. He was only mad because he thought Raik was signing alone and that would break up the band which had his inferiority complex rearing up.
the ML's manager seems sus, its hard to identify a psychpath
Valid but then Sena's dad case wouldnt be solved. That would require another episode. Or maybe they go the route where both the prosecutor and his dad are implicated with shady investigations by Sena in both the Raik trial and her dad's retrial.
So my theory is it's the ex gf Hye joo who did it. The earring is from a set that Raik stopped wearing his half because he came to terms of her leaving and moved on. It would make sense because she has always had a unstable nature even trying to kill Raik with the car on that night and for that even her dad is covering for her. With her industry connections she would have come across the fact that WS was tampering with the contract and that it would be putting raik in a bad position legally. Also if she killed her mom accidentally and then her father and the dad prosecutor framed sena's dad for the murder it would also get solved this way and clear the dad's name. Plus it would explain all the loose ends and would wrap up in a couple of episodes. Because it just needs a tug for the whole thing to unravel. Would also explain why her dad keeps trying to send her out of the country. That would also be such a betrayal for Raik though. The only other suspect is the fourth member but that doesnt make much sense.
