to me this BL has become rage bait & yet…

to me this BL has become rage bait & yet i wasn't that angry this ep - 1st of the shocker that Jimmy can be a good human-being when he wants too. him running off to help an ex, isn't anything to scoff at. plus he gave Run time to heal at his place & he wasn't creepy about it (given they were more friends with benefits then actual boyfriends), it's normal & very easy to "trip" into bed, with someone u had good sexual chemistry with - even if u hate their guts lol ************************************************2ndly Toh doesn't evoke my sympathetic side, every time he cried i rolled my eyes. cause the dude needs help not sympathy(!), from how Jimmy has treated him from the start, to assume he ever loved him, like what?!?? but this the same dude that convinced himself, that no matter why Jimmy too him to bed, he was gonna make Jimmy love him & the part that made me shudder, was when he told himself "...don't be petty & make him angry..." that's how abused women talk about their abusive husbands, this dude needs help, so he will stop seeking out abusive people to partner up with. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw i love Run - from the start of this i loved his sassy ass & i loved how he gave as good as he got, when he was with Jimmy. the fact he tried to get back together with the moron, was cause he's in a vulnerable state & Jimmy offered a safe haven. & call me mean, but i kinda enjoy his mean girl act towards Toh. ******************************************************************************but we all know that if they did get back together, sooner or later they would break-up, cause Jimmy is a personality only a mother can love - well his mother & Toh the masochist *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also, don't buy Jimmy suddenly actually caring for Toh, why him? he's been bed hopping for ages & the sec he gets his prey he moves on to the next conquest. but this time it's different - why? cause Toh was such a doormat?

Sons in mourning and investigation continues

It is believed Mr Jin committed suicide after talking with ISu. I guess I am relieved they didn’t think he murdered him. The death is flakey like his mother’s, but right now he is consumed by guilt. During mourning period, it is poignant the divide between support for the brothers. The eldest has his crazy ass mother show up, again loudly blaming ISu for everything. I despise her character and have no words strong enough for how I feel about her. The team showing up for support says it all. His hug from Choi was like a little brother grieving with him. Stepbrother stepped out to let them mourn privately. He goes home and finds his father’s keepsake box that had a picture of his mother, her necklace, and a promise on the back to be a good husband and father. ISu is struck that his father’s words of love and devotion were true. At the gravesite the vultures are swooping wanting the elder brother to take over the company. Lee is pondering the lack of sleeping pills for Jin’s mom and is off to investigate. She has confirmed that sleeping pills were not anywhere in the vicinity of the villa even is Mr Jin went there for the sole purpose to commit suicide. At the reading of the will ISu leaves and tells the brother to handle it however he wants. The lawyer and Choi both know elder Jin wanted to revise his will and didn’t get to. Lee mentions the lack of pills to her dad and then chats with Jin. She tells him what she’s discovered and the case is still being investigated. Choi is struggling to let the board know his decision of who to make chairman and is saved by a phone call. Another twist is that Mr Jin knew all along about his wife and son, he opted to change his at the discovery he had a real son. Choi tries to get proof of who left the mansion but the SD card is removed. Jin has memories restored and remembers stepmom at the house. The investigation is swirling with the clues of stepmom and son trying to determine which or if both guilty of murder. The murderers calling each other out? They question each other about the two different murders. It was a rather chilling conversation from the son. He learned to be exactly like mom but the w.0 version. He is calmer and stealthier combined with pure ambition. She should be grateful his first choice is to protect her. It segues to the conversation with elder Jin after ISu left. Mom already asked if he took her pills and once dad revealed he wouldn’t become head of company son left and pills added to drink. That was quite the dramatic pause at the end when elder brother sees younger brother at his award ceremony. The extra segment with the brother that never lied. Can’t wait to see how they wrapped this up.

Sins of the fathers

Jin was surprised to find his stepbrother involved. So originally it was not him trying to investigate his family via police. As the past crashed into the present, stepmom was also guilty of infidelity and was being blackmailed by her son’s father. In a twist of fate the true blood heir was the one always tagged illegitimate, while the son tagged legitimate was not the heir. As the story unfolds and Jin learns the truth of his stepbrother, he gives the paternity test to Lee and resigns. He then meets his father in some family cabin and demands the truth about his mother. He hid the pills as a child and they were for anxiety not sleeping. His dad is overwrought when he gets this news and is shown collapsed in a chair as Jin leaves. It is made to look like Jin killed his dad. Since he was still searching for the truth, it made no sense for him to do this in spite of how evidence points. His dad had relinquished his bid for mayor and discussed with Choi that eldest boy was not leader material for the company. The stepmother begged for her son but that wasn’t happening from Jin. It is to be determined how things will play out with the brothers, but their fathers caused a lot of grief, one by greed and one by manipulation. He was guilty of believing his wife and not questioning cause of death for his mistress. The stories of the woman he married and the woman he loved is coming to light. Even with another visit to psychiatrist, Jin cannot see who entered the house before his mom’s death. This drama does not fail with twists and unexpected turns that completely flip perception of what really happened, who did what , and when.

i get Tul pushing Boss away, but i don't get Thiu pushing Guy away, that is such a cliché & it is pointless as Kenji is aa moron & he doesn't act on logic. he hates Thiu - when he really doesn't have a reason too. at least with the flashback u get why Thiu didn't want to kill him. but Kenji ended up in his position cause of Thiu not cause of Phaibul the big-boss. so why does he have such a grudge against Thiu?!? after Thiu keeping him alive he rose in the ranks & ended up being the bosses other "right hand" equal to Thiu who had seniority over him - Thiu didn't begrudge him the position or the power. so just cause??? *********************** so Thiu still thinking his breaking up with Guy will keep him safe? really?!?? if anything him being in the dark puts him more in danger as Thiu can't hunt Kenji down & also be Guy's bodyguard. *****************************************************************Guy on his part is a bit of an airhead - which is tedious to watch - how he goes around with a brain in that head of his. but this another trope where the bottom is a clueless fragile watering pot. *****************************************************************the fact Whal got dumped now that Guy got dumped is ironic - but at least Whal now realizes his feelings & is gonna act on them. the question is Guy gonna accept him? or has being with Thiu broken him of the habit = crushing on Whal. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************Thiu told the gamer friends he would inform them when he found Guy & he has done everything but contact them, but they just props that r taken out when needed & then forgotten when not. like Guy suddenly contacting them after ghosting them, cause he wanted someone to help clean up Thiu 's restaurant. whack writing.
