Muddying the waters

All the positions for the new project are topsy turvy. First of all Jin Yu should have known something was up when his mom acquiesced so easily to him leading the project. Her grin was a mile wide that he and all his friends would burn brightly in whatever ramifications from Wang debacle comes to light. She is more than willing to let her company take the hit to watch him fall hard in such a big way. Wang is not dead apparently, but he was cleaning up something. This is probably key to whatever Ye Meng wants to know. Jin Yu again is doing things to protect her instead of devising a plan with her to counter. This has always been their biggest trouble as a couple. This is why ms nemesis had a foothold to weasel her way into the project. How ironic that they were both part of same three musketeers. Of course she didn’t know him. She was too busy thinking he was a kid to boss around and serve her at her leisure. A twin? Divorce papers in hand? She knows he was blackmailed by nemesis girl and using Kai to hinder her investigation. She should just get in his face and ask why? Their games are tiresome. Her rebuttal to his forced protection will just get her into greater trouble. She is reckless when pissed off and he gets morose and silent heading to a depression spiral rather than clearing the air. Their best option is to get their mutual therapist in the same room and hash things out with a moderator. He might have the know how to get them past themselves. I don’t know if they will ever have a real relationship and I really don’t care at this point. But they need to figure out this mess that has their families intertwined so they both can stop being haunted by it. Then their lives might actually be better whether together or no. I like how he gets sis to do dirty work and get Gma’s involved.😂 That and Kai’s reaction to Jin Yu’s office were the highlights of the episode.

Business as usual

For unknown reasons Jin Yu has requested his company shares and wants in on the project. He is probably wanting to work on the inside to find out what happened to Ye Meng’s mom. If he wanted to keep his wife away from his mom he definitely failed. Ye Meng really didn’t have time to chat prior to her plans but she tends to do first and think later. Jin Yu thinks too much and then finally acts. She feels she returned tit for tat in betrayal dept but she is supposed to be older and more experienced. This again is another wall of half truths and misunderstandings to work around. She has given her boss reason to hope and keep too close to her. If they would have worked, it would have happened long ago. She and Ya En trashed a hotel room while tossing paint on her good for nothing ex to be. He has asked for it and defamed her, but with his temper and proneness to violence, this was not the wisest course of action. He will come back like a wounded bear to cause even more harm. She did get her moment of satisfaction and I hope it works out for her. But the odds are not in her favor after this stunt and Ye Meng will not be around. I want them to solve this ring mystery but after this consider going their separate ways. They are a toxic heat and it seems to get more rather than less acrimonious especially from her end. His penchant for trying to think for her isn’t working either. He is a well intentioned knight, but his prior hurts make him too hesitant to react timely. He has to beat himself up first and then go in a bloody mess mentally to try to deal with her infantile crap. Again the writer and director does them no favors being a couple other than making them pretty and having the potential for steamy scenes. She lacks depth and he lacks confidence. They continue to show what each other lacks rather than a united front to take on the crap that surrounds them. Still waiting to hear about the ring. That has more interest than these two for the moment.😝

woman is always the main problem

This is a good drama with amazing acting and visuals, the prologue to the conflict is no problem with it, the plot is also interesting.However, it's really annoying how ml becomes fickle and messes up his plans just for a woman, then, he looks like he's so great at revenge, but in fact he only managed to kill 1 person for a very long time, and after that, it's really nonsense, he has no stance, poor strategy and even sacrifices a very loyal person. I can't stand watching this anymore, even though I praised him at first. This is really bad. Usually fl can at least help a little, but she's just a burden this time. I don't know what the focus of this drama is, he wants revenge, but he's so long-winded. He always threatens and looks confident, but turns out to be just trash.

Meeting with mom, dueling Gma’s and jerky boy soon to be ex husband

So had that wrong, her ex boss is Jin Yu’s friend and their mysterious buyer is fresh out of prison looking for compensation from Jin Yu’s mom. He also saw two fighting in a car the same day Ye Meng’s mother ‘committed suicide.’ He has all the missing video but he again only dealt with half truths. This time I feel Ye Meng has a reason to be pissed. Frankly, I was glad they had to deal with the dueling Gma’s.😂 There was some shady business acquiring the property for a new project now underway and I thing Ye Meng’s mom was caught in the crossfire. She most likely wouldn’t sell, or was going to advise a friend not to sell and they killed her. The timing is weird so maybe something with his step dad and her mom went down over property. That she used his depression against him is par for the course. I don’t think a level exists she won’t sink to. So now ring seller is gonna turn up dead or disappeared. There was some deal Jin Yu made with his “mom”. Curious about what that was. He is holding his own with her better than I expected. She can’t kill him off or what would happen to perfect son’s donor?😝Ya En is in real trouble thanks to the guy she can’t divorce fast enough. In addition to wife hitting he is a spendthrift taking out loans his body can’t cash to have the appearance of wealth for possible clients. Like they can’t tell he’s a loser and just letting him waste more money he doesn’t have. Kai showed up just in time to get her deeds back and get creep arrested. I hope he volunteers his safe at business to be sure there is no way he can have her robbed later. Ye Meng should not have charged in alone. She is not thinking straight and could have been in as big of trouble as her friend. The guys are picking up Jia Yu to keep him away til the mess is cleaned up so he won’t find out about the fight his parents had. The one funny thing is how sweetly the grannies conversed with hopes of a grandchild. These families are seriously messed up and quite normal 😝😂 Things are still heated between Ye Meng and Jin Yu but quite interesting that the two guys she let in her life were once friends. The one is so pompous that I really can’t see them having a work venture together. But maybe rich guy handled the books and Jin Yu the club entertainment. So what happened that made Jin Yu pull out of college? When did that fire happen and how was it caused? Did the fire have something to do with real estate deal and getting land acquisitions for projects? This is an ugly mess that seems to involve both families. I don’t know if our couple will get through this to have a healthy relationship or not. There may be too many obstacles and too many half truths for them to muddle through. I still have strong hopes for Kai and Ya En. Their relationship has more promise. Ye Meng and Jin Yu will never lack for steamy passion, but they do lack common sense in when to be upfront and direct with information. They are exhausting as written. They are not even allowed a full 24 hours just to enjoy each other before some serious calamity strikes. This writer punishes them too much for their parents. 😝This is why I am indifferent with them as a couple. They can create lots of steam, but they have yet to do anything that really brings out the best of the other. They are less stressful and more interesting to watch as flirty friends than this huge mountain of trauma and drama as a couple. Kai and Ya En have my vote as most popular couple of the drama so far. Their future holds much more promise. Jia Yu will keep them in line nicely.😂

Wedding plans

Hi jinx begin already with old boss offering apartments and nemesis girl showing up at Kai’s place. I was getting annoyed with Jin Yu’s half truth collection but this time he showed up. Baby steps. The boss is a rich version of Kai.😝 He obsesses over Ye Meng and thinks he has molded her into the perfect wife to be for his family. However, IF that was his plan, why did he pull the rug out from under her over that project she’d spent a half year working on? How was undermining her job performance to either advantage? He’s a manipulative creep and here is where he is not like Kai at all. He knows how important that ring was to Ye Meng and he cancelled the meeting. Not only that, he made sure the guy was not to be found. Kai would never do such an underhanded thing. I am guessing the nice colleague is Jin Yu’s family member. Jin Yu is going to have to come clean about his family. Ye Meng told them she was married and drew the line in the sand of propriety. She pretty much told ex boss to shove off. 🥳she shouldn’t have left the day after marriage certificate. The info wasn’t going anywhere and there was no particular rush to get that started. She could have worked with Jin Yu from the beginning and cut out the worthless middleman. Now here is where ex boss IS like Kai. She hired an actor cause none of us has even see this guy. 😂 Even his friend knows this is a stretch. She and Jin Yu are now hoping to work with fat Buddha to find the ring seller. She does recognize him as a driver, but for who? They are at least getting a wedding night and Ye Meng is plus one in truth completion category for a change. It is now Jin Yu that must fess up about his family. Now the funniest and scariest part is the battle of the Gma’s. 😂🫣 This is Ye Meng and nemesis girl 30 years from now. IF they can be in same room.🤣This episode was worth it just to watch them have it out. You can tell they go waaaaayyyy back and this battle has been in the works for decades.They did not pull punches and fortunately no bloodshed. But damn, they were feisty and funny. 😂

grim reaper + weightlifting fairy = ❤️

i'm excited to see LDW play a realistic character. i miss lee yeon (and his hair), but seokcheol is worth spending time with. seokcheol is an interesting, multi-dimensional character, and i feel sorry he basically gave up his dreams for his family.the story is good so far, the plot believable, and despite the thugs and gambling, not over the top. the dynamic between the three siblings is believable.i enjoyed divorce insurance, but this drama feels like "real life" and gives LDW a chance to act in a way he hasn't since bad and crazy IMO.i'm not sure what the opening scene meant, but i'm looking forward to finding out. these are people i like spending time with. i hope seokcheol and miyoung can find happiness and peace with each other.

Crazy matches crazy—you two deserve each other

Ya En said it best😂🫣 There is no telling how long these two will get along, but I loved the flower courtyard and her finding the dog cam that told on him. Gma again has good sense when she chats with Jin Yu. The toast of the aunties 😂🤣 I’m as shocked as Jin Yu because he was not getting good reviews first visit. This is more how I thought they would react first time. Kai and Jia Yu are very cute. Ya En needs a divorce. He is not ok when angry and their arguments are far more alarming for a kid than two peaceful homes. I love how Jia Yu is attuned to Kai and trying to keep him in the loop. This will be messy but I really want to see this couple succeed. Their marriage vows. 🤣😂 Maybe they will make some couple time now since they haven’t managed it yet. She is still heading to the city. Jin Yu won’t go because of family. I would really like to know what that’s all about. He is regretting his choices and lamenting his current financial status, but that is all fixable. I am hoping they take grief therapy together and somehow for him to help with the ring hunt regardless of his family issues. This means her boss probably knows about them. Can’t wait to see how all this good news pans out.😝 I would like to see Gma’s face over this choice and sis….no death metal for reception.😂🥳
