I always find these family members plotting against each other fascinating. Everyone acknowledges that she's a tea genius, but they want to turn their empire into another mediocre tea business that'll eventually fail by getting rid of her. Where is the logic? At least, the sisters should be as good if they want to remove her from the equation. Like, their bright idea is to call her a fraud in public and ruin the entire family's reputation. Geniuses. For real.
I'm only 5 episodes in and I still don't understand why she's keeping him... Synopsis says it's for revenge but he didn't actually do anything to her, in fact , weren't they both investigating the same thing just from different angles? Is the beef that he called her for questioning? That's reason enough to hold him hostage? I'm not getting it...
I enjoyed the final episodes a lot and while I did not want to see ZX for even a second again, I was happy to see that even a decade later, that loser was still alone. So glad that his colleague moved on from that disaster.
XG and LYS were amazing but I was sad we didn't get to see Yu Sen's mother again. I was hoping we'd get to see her for their wedding. All in all, this was a great time!
Wasn't the reason she took the case was because Raik's original lawyer dropped it? When he cursed in front of…
She may have come to that eventually, but she rushed to the police station and was the first on the case absolutely because she's a diehard fan who was obsessively keeping tabs on him. I don't doubt her abilities at all, but the only reason she was interested wasn't because noone wanted the case, she was already invested. Now, once she got in a room with the human Ra Ik, she realised that there was more there, but I'm pretty sure she would have found a way to interfere even if the other lawyer did take the case.
i have a legal background so i’m so annoyed by how totally weak the case is but it’s being played up as damning…
And he didn't even sign anything. Even if he said he wanted to leave, his mother signed a contract, not him. How they think that's going to doom him is beyond me. I kept asking myself if I was missing something.
If he feels this betrayed and upset by Se Na (which is his right and makes sense considering what we’ve seen…
I think things with WS wouldn't have been so bad if his mother wasn't such a deadbeat loser. If she hadn't signed that contract and collected the advance, they may have been able to keep things quiet until WS was able to talk to the whole group. Although Ra Ik probably wouldn't have been able to leave anyway cos I'm sure the CEO was blackmailing him to stay.
In next episode teaser when Park Chung Jae ask Se Na " Don't you see how worried i am ? " I was like dude…
Friends can also be worried about you... I didn't see anything in that statement alone to be him forcing his feelings on her cos it was barely 2 seconds long. Maybe more will be revealed, but if I had a friend who was going through something like that I'd want them to know explicitly that they are not alone and there's someone who cares about them. Maybe I read the scene wrong though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've seen a number of people surprised he didn't recognise her as a teenager and I'm a little lost... Has he mentioned that incident as something significant in his life? Maybe I missed it. Cos why would he remember a girl he met briefly over a decade ago? I know it was a major event for Se Na, but that doesn't necessarily mean it was memorable for Ra Ik. Unless there's something I've missed so far, or maybe they'll write that in later. But realistically, he shouldn't remember her actually and that's alright too.
I broke down and watched the episode anyway.I do not get La Ik and Hye Joo's relationship at all. She seems delusional…
Ra Ik seems to have a habit of protecting people who hurt him because he believes he isn't worthy of anything good so they must be right on some level. It vexes me cos several people should've gotten slapped by now for their behaviour, including that idiot ex.
I think with the introduction of new evidence about the victim trying to move their group to a new company, we can now properly look at the CEO as a suspect. He's been shady from day 1, but that didn't qualify him for suspect status on its own. It seems WS was trying to do anything to get the band out of their predatory contracts because he could see Ra Ik selling his soul to keep them together under that company. Knowing this, I don't believe the CEO will actually provide evidence of the new contract to the police because it makes him a suspect now and gives him motive to get rid of WS.
As for... Everything else... The ex gf is obviously batshit crazy. Ra Ik needs to stop internalising guilt from people who are actually harming him like those psychotic fangirls who nearly killed someone. What do you mean let them go? Istg he's getting on my last nerve with that. And hell, he's already a murder suspect so why do you care about what else people will say now? That idiot band mate needs to grow up fr cos this victim mentality is tired and played.
Finally, of course he was going to find out Se Na's secret, and of course that was going to be their major conflict. Did people expect him to just be like "oh well la dee da" about such a major lie? He kept saying she's the only one he can trust, and thank God she doesn't like him, and now that he finds out it's actually the opposite he should just let it slide? Is he not a human being anymore? Cos he'd have to be some kind of Buddha to let that go just like that. She needs to explain herself thoroughly, and then he can decide if he should forgive her or not. Let's also not forget that the only reason she took his case was because she IS a wildly obsessed fan and NOT because she's some superhero of justice who just happened to be there. She may have her principles as a lawyer, but the whole thing was tainted from the start - fruit from a poisonous tree, one might say. Better to clear the air now and move on.
Ep6 So not saying she is his ardent fan is betrayal ? should he not be thrilled she is his fan? didnt she say…
If it wasn't going to be a problem, she wouldn't have felt compelled to hide it and lie to him all this time. I think we all know that she wasn't keeping it from him because she was protecting her personal life, she knew that he would never have gotten that close to her if he knew she was an obsessed fan.
I'm going with the flow bc I love sooyoung and jaeyoung and the mystery still has me curious but right now they're…
This is how I feel too. He seems to hurt his own case more often than not, and I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for his lawyer. I'm still watching because unlike everyone else in the show, I actually do want to find out who the real killer is 😂
I can't believe we're still wasting airtime on ZX and goodness, I wanted to smack XG's cousin shut when he started going on about study overseas and whatnot. ZX is a classic case of "if he wanted to, he would". If he wanted to reach XG, no matter where she was, he would have. Hell, he got her text messages and chose not to use the same mode of communication to reach her. I am so tired of experiencing ZX as a character.
Next, I really wanted them to call the cops on those lenders. Cos XG's father and grandparents do not appear anywhere on that piece of paper so why the hell are you making noise at their house? Let the police come and handle it and they can explain to the police how "it's all the same thing" when you have a written agreement with a whole other person. Her father continues to be an idiot, but I certainly do not subscribe to this bs of passing loans onto a random 3rd party.
I'm looking forward to the conclusion of this drama, but it's been so much fun watching it so far.
I wasn't going to mention him again, but I really feel like ZX is exactly like XG's father. Coming from a poor background with a ton of resentment and entitlement at the same time (even has a toxic and stupid 'childhood love' too), but unlike her mother, XG was lucky enough to see his real colours before they got entangled.
Looks like XG only had 2 decent friends in college cos the others were just chock-full of resentment and jealousy, just because she's from a rich family. Also, the audacity of that girl to say she also liked that scarecrow, ZX, but she and Rong didn't want to actually date him because of his family troubles, and then resent XG for actually speaking up about her feelings is doing my head in. If you're too cowardly or miserable to just like someone openly, then don't complain when someone else steps up.
Love that we've been introduced to yet another boss-ass woman, leading in her field cos that's always fun for me.
Finally, I cannot believe that scarecrow has yet another woman waiting for him now. Is she really so stupid that she'd look at him pining after someone else's gf and say "ah yes, that's the one I want". The 'i can fix him' mentality needs to fade into oblivion please 😩 I'm deliberately not commenting on the scarecrow's actions in ep 30 cos that's how irrelevant and useless he is to me (and XG).
When you’re desperate for freedom, sometimes you don’t care/think about the consequences. He was a part of…
I think he should have exposed his in laws and himself and paid the price for his corruption. Opening a law firm like that means nothing even if he goes on to help all the small people out there. What about justice for his victims? He should have submitted himself to the mercy of the law for punishment and that would be a real ground zero point to rebuild from. That's my opinion though.
Also, my original point that he was a fool for doing this and not keeping any evidence still stands.
XG and LYS were amazing but I was sad we didn't get to see Yu Sen's mother again. I was hoping we'd get to see her for their wedding. All in all, this was a great time!
