don't know a things about bombs, but given…

don't know a things about bombs, but given the blast there's NO WAY anyone in that room survived. maybe Baek Sa Eon (cause he was in a different room), but he too should've been seriously injured given the blast blowing the door into his room. Park Do Jae who was standing near the guy opening the pizza box, for sure shouldn't be logically standing there, being capable of worrying over his boss. *****************************************************************************************************************************************& get Hong Hui Ju not thinking straight (considering everything happening to her) let alone her cold weird relationship with that douche of a husband, but the sec he took her phone to check for hacking, shouldn't she have told him that the car was for sure hacked?!? & considering it was done once, why wouldn't the kidnapper try again?? especially after almost getting away with it the 1st time?!? & after the way the car "acted" when she came to get, still staying in it, let alone driving off was a stupid move IMO *****************************************************************************************************************************but after her knee-jerk reaction of not just taking the encrypted phone, but calling her husband to threaten him, she seems a bit lost without any forethought as to what she wants to achieve & how to go about getting it. Baek Sa Eon who is made out to be smart, should've clued out by now that the person on the other end is female cause of the way she was talk - which was more emotionally motivated, then pragmatic. *****************************************************************************************************************************************also the whole back-story is confusing me a bit. when Ji Sang U spoke about his childhood playmate i was sure it was Baek Sa Eon. but now i am assuming it was the male child of the Chairman that Hong Hui Ju's mother was talking about. so am guessing that she has 2 girls from her marriage to Na Jin Cheol. & the rich man she married had 2 kids that died - guess her daughter Hong Hui Ju was involved in the accident, but was the sole survivor. **************************************************************************************************************so the chairman wont get angry that his children died, while his step daughter survived - her mother forced her into acting mute \(〇_o)/(ノへ ̄、) poor kid/girl/woman.

This is the worst drama I've ever watched…

This is the worst drama I've ever watched in my life. I'll never watch it again. If I knew the content of this drama was only provoking I would have watched it from the beginning. You have insulted Palestine!!! It's clear that Israel is committing genocide against Palestine. Such a good drama that you inserted an unnecessary scene. I'm so disappointed

Take It, or Should I?

La actuacion de ella al desconocer lo que buscaban, como esta entrando en el papel de ponerlo celoso sin saberlo... y que eso a la vez le gusta y intriga en si ella es la unica pista que tiene porque pareciera que le importa más de lo que demuestra en realidad. Un horario y una llamada que puede cambiarlo.

8/10

It's funny how Saeon got emotional for not knowing Heejoo well. Let's be real, you haven't been treating her well. Even if it's a misunderstanding and you secretly love her, she still doesn't feel loved or accepted by you. You don't even know how to read sign language, so how can you know everything about her?

More trills and twists

This episode has a bit more action and trills as the action takes things up a notch. Still more secrets and background info gets dropped like crumbs.

We also know that the kidnapper is not working alone. Based on the message the kidnapper exchanged on the phone with his accomplice, it seems the target is ultimately Sa-eon. Now, Sa-eon and his family don’t have a shortage of enemies, so it can be anyone. However, this might be about something that happened years ago. It might also have to do with arson because the kidnapper has a burn mark on his neck.

Several reveals

Baek Sa Eon had been hiding his wife for her safety because she IS his weakness. As it turns out, he was telling the truth at that birthday shindig. And during the pre-wedding phone call between him and Hong In A where she says, she's doesn't want to go through the arranged marriage; otherwise, she'll reveal his secrets, he tells her it will happen anyway, but not with her, with her sister Hee Joo instead (he was trying to protect Hee Joo from an undesirable arranged marriage). Then, that last line, when Baek Sa Eon finally utters the magic words, "She's my wife." I actually got butterflies in my belly.

more grounded, still cracktastic

ep1 and 2 were absolute rockets of episodes in terms of pacing, intensity, and chemistry. ep 3 slows down a bit and zooms in on the character dynamics, relatively sidelining the thriller and suspense. scenes are more drawn out for this reason, but the fast forward button never looks tempting. there are a few scenes i want to talk about but they obviously contain spoilers.


--------------[SPOILERS DIVIDER]----------------


[scenes i was less impressed with]

- sae-on crashing the lunch. the pseudo double date with awkward and jealous headbutting feels a bit cringey and childish and is just generally not my thing. it was also longer than i would've liked, considering it didn't add too much to the characters or story. side note: im glad heejo immediately caught on to the fact that sae-on creeped on her private conversations under the excuse of scanning for malware.

- the carpark scene. it was well done in a thriller context, don't get me wrong, but raises some questions. (1) HOW does the mystery man keep hacking the cars? they can't keep getting away with this! (2) after the remote controlling stops, heejo immediately drives off. IN THE COMPROMISED CAR. idk but i'd be getting the fuck out of that carsome


[highlights]

- baek sae-on being confronted for not wanting to confirm his wife's mole. it's a typical npc scene to move the romance for the main characters, but this one is actually well done. "he's a pervert, then." the comedic moment is well-timed and well-acted, and the scene continues to give us visual confirmation of saeon's true feelings towards heejo. the melancholy during his admission that he doesn't want to find out, and the resignation when his friend says that he must love his wife.

- the motorcade scene ofc. this drama really knows when to cue its theatrical music. saeon's epic theme is SO GOOD. the show also cued it in ep 2's insanely charged moment of "do you want to take it off, or should i?" then following it up with the romantic ballad ost "see the light" after.finally i would like to once again take a moment to appreciate how well yoo yeon suk is portraying baek sae-on's pretty standard dominant ceo character. he infuses a vulnerability and passion to him so well.

The episode behind with a bomb blast in Sa Eon's office. And he rushed home after gaining consciousness in the medical room. Further investigation and scenes reveals that there is not just one culprit but in fact there are two. Hui Ju's having lunch with the SML. And Sa Eon is also there so now it's become a lunch for four. And I love SE's jealous side. And when SML talks with Hui ju by sign language he's jealous even more, ^^. He's upset with her for not knowing much about him saying she knows the SML is a person, but what about him. And Sa Eon's been constantly trying to find out about the arsonist. This feels like his secretary is more into SML impression by his muscles and all. Hui Ju is in hot water now. And quite frightened. Well who wouldn't panic in such a situation. Her car was again hacked. And this time it was much scarier. He's trying to improve their relationship or should I say make it real. Omooooo laying down on the same bed. He just wants her to be safe. Because of someone's death she was asked to pretend to lose her voice. OMG he loves her so much. The kidnapper's calling her threatening her with her dad, to continue calling ml. She's panicking because she's caught up in kidnapper's games and she can't quit now. She's broken at this point . Don't cry babygurl, your Knight in shining Armor is here. He's again flaunting his shining wedding band. He finally admitted Yes she's my Wifey.

This episode's last 5 minutes were everything!!!…

This episode's last 5 minutes were everything!!! I was literally trying not to scream and wake up everyone at home at 12 in the midnight lol! That aside, this episode clearly showed Paik Saoen's love for Heejoo —its all in the subtle little clues!!
