Comments

Brian Aug 27 2025 6:48 pm Very much liked the writing on this... and loved Cho Yeo Jeong's portrayal of her character.

Unimpressed Jun 27 2023 5:26 am Boring, predictable and anti-climactic. I had high hopes for this drama tbh

Park Min May 31 2023 7:52 am This was an enjoyable mystery-comedy drama full of character and style. The main leading actor and actress Cho Yeo Jung & Go Jun were the perfect cast for their character, completely embodying the character to bring it to its full potential. The mystery element was good and kept going for its entire runtime but this delayed a lot of things to the last episode which made it feel cramped. This also resulted in slow pacing which almost turned it stale. The last episode could've been done better, the 2nd half of the last episode was going all over the place and a bit too unfocused. Meanwhile, the ending was purely done that way to leave a stronger impression, so it's not meant to be taken serious or to be over analyzed.

Aran Oct 25 2022 7:33 am Just finished watching this drama.. n woooww... the real killer, i just didn't expect it until i watched the last episode. Bravo .. And I really like the comedy air tension between Han Woo Sung, his best friend Jin Ho and Yeo Joo (especially when Jin Ho and Yeo Joo interaction) hahaha... Ahhh, I don't know why there are so many fans who ship Yeo Joo with Soo Ho..And Woo Sung with Mi Rae?? (maybe the chemistry???) I don't know I just feel don't right to ship them. They already knew that Yeo Joo and Woo Sung have married and I don't want they become someone who interrupt their marriage relationship. I know I hate Woo Sung for being womanizer and cheated on Yeo Joo .But i really hope this become the last he done that and still keep on their marriage. (And they can have children maybe) hahah.. Nah I just want a happy family between Yeo Joo and Woo Sung though, it's not easy for Yeo Joo to open a heart to man I know because her trauma about his parent cheating, and Woo Sung to marry her. Anyway, Hope for season 2, where's the cast still the same with another mystery story!!

i miss this drama Oct 18 2022 4:40 am i remember starting this because i ship kyj csh lol i was hoping their romance would blossom somewhere in the story but- nothing happened. csh was def interested tho but the ending kinda hints on them??????

Daewoo-chan Jul 18 2022 3:31 pm The series starts on a very promising note but soon dissolves into separate lines of confusion. The whole ordeal could have been over 50% shorter (~8 episodes @ 40 minutes) and even then it wouldn't been that concise. Lost the whole plot after 3 episodes and didn't know who's who any more.

userpc20000 Jan 16 2022 10:34 am Does anyone know what is the background (piano) music in episode 7 at 49.54 minutes? Thank you.

?? Nov 17 2021 5:51 pm It hardly makes sense that FL was so smart and caught on to so many things that early on but never knew about the cheating? Or is it because she’d come off as too perfect so needed this kind of weakness? But he was just so obvious???

Rocky Sep 03 2021 9:50 am All the while I thought Yeo Joo is already aware that Woo Sung is a womanizer and cheating on her.

,,, Jul 08 2021 10:56 am really loved this !! just didnt understand the murder plot sometimes but idc tbh lol i enjoyed watching the milf plus her assistant and it also had good comedy added so its not boring. not really scary as it looks in the poster tho. just good amount of terrifying scenes that isnt too scary... just perfect idk i love this drama totally recommend

Jin1204 Jun 09 2021 5:28 pm Am i the only one who actually ship the police couple here? Haha i mean i know he was married and stuff but he said the wife will divorce him(?) So i guess he'll be single again(?) Idk, i just hope it will grow something between those 2. And of course i ship CSH dan KYJ sooo haard that i feel it is so unfortunate to see only a little interactions between them

Eneri Jun 04 2021 8:54 am Great drama! We ship for a season two, jebalyo! For those who don't like Ko Jun as the male lead, sorry to burst your bubble, but he nailed his character here..sweet and naive in the presence of his wife, but every damn bit a ladies' man haha..i like KYJ and HWS chemistry, u can feel the tension between the two of them, knowing HWS is cheating on his wife. I just wish they will not glorify women like Ko Mi Rae who still goes after men when they know that man is already married.

hanwoosung's mistress May 13 2021 4:47 am for everyone that hesitating to watch, just watch it and you wont fckin regret it. trust me <3

Not understanding Apr 25 2021 10:44 am Men cheating results in death and life destroy But Women cheating only divorce , give settlement money and some time husband forgive her

It's not fair both should be treated equally either punishment or forgiveness.

Lee Ha Na Apr 18 2021 5:14 am I should have liked more screen time for KYJ and CSH but it was very little til the end. I just skipped most of it unless it was their scene. Hoping they can be the focus if ever there will be a season 2. There were just so many angles to the background story, I just stopped guessing and went with the story flow without thinking who might have done this or that. But in the end, finally the murderer was revealed but of course you never guess who it was because the clues were not revealed until the end. All what was shown were the clues leading others except the real killer. Nice job to the scriptwriter and director. P.s. Kim Young Dae is Hot AF He has some features similar to Gang Dong Won. Hope to see him in more projects after Penthouse!

So Lala Apr 06 2021 9:16 pm

kinda spoilers*

The mix of genres is great, it doesn't overlap. The acting is on point, too, even for Yeonwoo which I never see any of her drama. I feel disturbed watching HWS and GMR interaction, even when they didn't have an affair (yet). And I sure dig the growing chemistry between KYJ and CSH. I think it's going to be cringe, but it's not. Both HWS+GMR and KYJ+CSH are compensating each other.

And there's HWS+KYJ. They would've made a great couple if KYJ didn't lead a risky life and HWS didn't cheating. They look very equal. Unfortunately sometimes powerful meets powerful will end up overpowering each other.

Aaaand this is my appreciation paraghraf for Kim Youngdae. I did't watch Penthouse so it's my first time watch him. I can see why he's a sensation. His acting is swaying elegantly, there's no unnecessary impression. His posture, his gesture, his slightest expression here is just... chef's kiss.

However I agree they wrapped up this drama in such hurry. Like, who wears the blue high heels in the cemetery when they re-dig BSJ's grave? Did I miss something? Is that KYJ? Or even the NIS girl (Bae Noori)? It makes sense if they're saving those unanswered things for Season 2 (if there is).

Bonus : GMR's husband is HWS's asisstant in The Fiery Priest... he's quite famous back then for his appearance even when he was just a figurine. If there's season 2, I can't wait to watch him and HWS fighting haha because he was so loyal to him in The Fiery Priest.

Lila-Rosa Bezel (update) Apr 05 2021 10:06 am omg i'm being whiny. it's get better and more thrilling towards the end. apart from that, Kang Yeo Joo is really fascinating. Her character, her vibes, her micro-expression, even her wardrobe, ahh... it suits Cho Yeo Jeong so well.

And honestly I was concern about Yeojoo and Sooho pairing because of the age gap and all in the beginning, but it turns out to be just... imperfectly perfect (?). CSH is so eye-candy too oh God...

And I want to praising Yeon Woo and Ko Jun too. Althought their roles are sometimes sooo pushing my button, but it must've been awkward to act with the same big age gap as Yeojoo and Sooho. They did well. They all did.

Lila-Rosa Bezel Apr 04 2021 6:35 pm I only got to episode 6. So far I like the way Kang Yeo Joo looks, she looks tough and unbothered. But is she really being clueless over her husband's infidelity? Throughout this drama? If so, why would she be given sharp senses if the writer made her look innocent and easily fooled about her husband's infidelity. So far, because of that it has become a bit frustrating to watch it.

rara Mar 30 2021 7:08 am the ending definitely screaming for season 2, especially when CSH asked KYJ to join him on his next visit to Dokdo, really wished season 2 will focused on HWS tried to kill KYJ and CHS and the whole NIS tried to protect KYJ. i really liked Mr.ma role here suited him perfectly. the chemistry between CSH and KYJ is no joke. out off all the drama i watched this is drama gonna be in my first place for a very long time, suited my taste 100000%.

SweetPuff Mar 19 2021 11:15 am it's funny how yeo joo notices even the smallest details in her surrounding,but didn't notice his husband's affair.

Cream Mar 19 2021 9:18 am i really hate the male lead. han woo sung is so annoying, he cheated on her then what? he plays the victim? i curse him every episode HAHHAHA anyways the story is great this is a perfect drama 10/10

Elok Mar 06 2021 4:34 am Season 2 please! I love the chemistry between cha soo ho and kang yeo joo. I definitely love it if they are together ?

nanmeolla Mar 05 2021 10:59 am Totally recommended for everyone that haven't watched it. This drama literally not have a simple plot and always makes you anticipated what happens next episode, and it will lead you until the last episodes. As many said that this story have a slow plot, I'm honestly would be disagree about it. I think that this have a perfect plot, how they keep the mystery genre. Totally recommended and trust me, you will be satisfied with this drama. Hoping for season 2 <3

redhowhow Feb 21 2021 10:54 am DEFINITELY DEFINITELY RECOMMEND it for everyone! Especially if you are like me who loves mystery + light comedy + light romance = COMIYC!! I am not a fan of the actors at all really (but I knew them the wife from Parasite and ex-Momoland member and then Nam Ju from Extraordinary You) before watching the drama but I would say I am def a fan of them now! I watched this because I am kind of done of rom-com at the time and decided to watch this and boom LOVED IT!!

Actually, I find the plot not really that special especially coming from Philippines whose series are always about cheating/adultery and revenge. But the events, the twists, the delivery and the characters are just so superb and well-made wow.

[SPOILER ALERT]

I'll be honest I really fell in love with the characters of KYJ and CSH so bad!! I did not expect the progress between them. Aside from the mystery, the two are the ones I'm really really looking forward every episode! At first, I just find them cute and thought that they have chemistry. But wow! It is real! The author really giving us hope they may have 'something'. Well it is an open ending but if I were KYJ I will def decide to leave HWS after cheating with like two women behind her back so brazen and with her dreadful past built up due to adultery is just not right. But the writers can go like 'true love' and whatever after all HWS's mistakes KYJ will forgive her because of true love and destiny and all I CAN ACKNOWLEDGE THAT but damn I seriously want KYJ and CSH to end up with each other like CSH def knows and understands KYJ better and to be fair they have more love story than KYJ and HWS in the build up. The writer really not toning down with 2nd lead syndrome from beginning till the end! I hate it and love it at the same time lol!

And yeah the series is so rushed. Like ten times rusher than other series (def because of pandemic). But that doesn't mean the series is bad. No not all! Still one of the best dramas of 2020 I swear! Better than True Beauty! (but that doesn't mean True Beauty is bad okay) First of all KMR and her husband not yet resolved??!! The two have such big impact on the characters??!! They are like the trigger for Season 2. Second is CEO HYS and her revenge against KYJ??!! Third is Lawyer PHK and her revenge against HWS??!! That def is not resolved??!! Like that conflict just gone suddenly??!!

DEFINITELY NEEDS A SEASON 2! I imagine the 2nd season to be more thrilling and daring with more action. KYJ is on bigger trouble! She is so fragile she needs someone as capable like CSH to protect her! Also KMR is def going all out for HWS and I do think they deserve each other.

Gosh. I really find this such a good drama. I don't think I can get over with the characters yet.

Albalicious Feb 21 2021 8:38 am Season 2

tangsi Feb 17 2021 3:19 am season 2 please :)))

wew Feb 08 2021 8:01 am can i ask is this drama funny?? i mean there are hillarious scene??

belle Feb 07 2021 10:34 am Hoping For Season 2 ?

RoseCenna Feb 06 2021 11:41 am I love This series you dont know who really is the killer you dont know who you suspect hoping there is a Seasons 2 please .Im so curious what will happend hehehe excited

Aizawa Feb 05 2021 10:35 am This is the first time I didn't know how to react on the drama. I just like everyone else. Loved it even though it is an open ending and a bit rushed. Some part was draggy & hope the writer-nim can learn to do it better for their next project. I must say this is interesting & hateful at the same time too (because some part left unanswered). Lol...

And, am I the only one who likes the guy playing Mr. Ma? He is stunning & handsome too (especially on EP.11 where he played 'Troublemaker' song. My favourite scene ever~ XD) He & Cha Soo-ho are the main reason why I keep watching this drama. Second Male Lead Syndrome are always in the air whenever I watch this kind of drama. I ship Soo-ho & Yeo-joo so much! Please do Season 2, writer-nim. It's okay if it flop at your country. You all have your own 'fan-base' for this drama. Please...

Lloyd Saldanha Feb 02 2021 2:39 am Loved the slow build up, kudos on the story telling. The cast played it to the T! Cho Yeo-Jeong and Ko Jun in their own characters are really loveable. Interesting plot and worth the watch.

Having said that, the last two episodes were a let down for me. It seemed like there was so much story to unfold but they had to wrap up the series and it forced the creative team to make a potpourri of what was available and shoot. Please tell me there is a Season 2. I still haven't been able to digest that the series is done for.

All those characters have enough material to showcase, and as a Series glutton, I love to see that story enfold. Hoping there is a Season 2. Fingers crossed!

Van Feb 01 2021 12:36 pm I really enjoy watching this drama. It is funny and entertaining. I love the casting. Cho Yeo-Jeong and Joon Go really nail their respective roles. The plot is interesting and intrigue in the beginning but it kinda drag on for a while until the end. I feel that the ending was a bit rush. I wish the writer should have a side story with Go Mi Rae and Han Woo Sung and then Kang Yeo Joo with her assistant. However, that maybe is wishful thinking. I really hope they will make a second season. Overall, I still think this is a good show. I would recommend this drama strongly if you are up for a light comedy.

Steffany Feb 01 2021 11:15 am I loved the series like whaaattt!! ?? I’m definitely eager for Season 2. The vibe between the writer and the assistant was ?? I wanna know if the writer stabbed her husband, that suspense is killing me for sure...Really waiting for season 2 with the same people.

Star Feb 01 2021 8:12 am definitely we want season 2

justme Jan 31 2021 4:15 am Brilliant drama. Love Kang Yeo-Joo & Cha Soo-Ho characters and all their scenes together. He understands her better and protects her all the time. Their' chemistry is strong and they suit each other. Despise Han Woo-Sung unforgivable cheating with several women at a time behind his wife, wearing his "innocent" mask in front of his wife. He doesn't deserve KYJ. There should be season 2, or a spin-off of this drama to develop KYJ and CSH relationship; Ko Mi-Rae's story; the police partners' relationship development, and the aftermath of divorce of the cheating husband, HWS.

Kathy Jan 30 2021 3:37 pm There must be a season 2.

Mimitata Jan 30 2021 2:58 pm The drama was perfect the suspens was a killer the whole story was perfect specially the twist at the end I loved every scene and every caracter of this Drama. The end was a little vit short I would loved if they added more 15min to let us deal with the last scene hahaha and she choose to go with her assistant and live a better life she deserves. This will stay in top of my fav dramas always. I'm not used to comment or give my opinion but this one I couldn't finish it without talking about it and give it more attention. Hahaha guess I'll watch it again don't judge me

Team chayeojoo Jan 30 2021 12:09 pm Director nim??????? i want part 2 i want her assistant to hit on her and her husband to die ??? i am so in love with drama idk i am alll into this drama??? idk we want season 2 why ended in suspense?? we want season 2 like pent house??? director nim please?? #chayeojoo

Ann Jan 30 2021 11:30 am OMG this is the first time I really like K-Drama!!! KYJ so mysterious!!! I cant wait for season 2 (hopefully!)! Like never know the ending woww

Jil Vargas Jan 30 2021 6:53 am Too slow phasing but this has a promising story telling. Could have been better if they improve the phasing. All cast done well but due to very slow phasing, the over all drama have been rated low.

Haru Jan 30 2021 5:50 am this drama is so entertaining, Mysterious and yet thrilling!? I love how the way the changed their personas for reality to acting! Awards deserved! Looking forward if it has season 2 and also to other casts for they have now to take their own path!

Bay Jan 30 2021 2:51 am I am surprised at the poor ratings. For me it was very interesting, it’s not your typical kdrama storyline. I love main character, her acting was so perfect. She is so smart and notices everything but when it comes to her husband she was clueless about his cheating. But then I guess she trusted him completely and felt safe with him so she didn’t suspect him. The ending got me like 0_o I want one more episode lol

anginribut Jan 29 2021 11:50 pm Season 2 Please :" I Can't live without the next story of mysterious KYJ :"

mangtae Jan 29 2021 8:40 pm i feel like this drama played with my feelings in a way that i love how mysterious it is so i kep going only to find out that it wasnt that grand but i had to go through weeks and hours of finding out. And the ending is just. wtf. its just misunderstanding and aigoo..open ended scene. ok ranted bye.

Albalicious Jan 29 2021 4:22 pm One of the mist entertaining series i have watched.It gets you thinking who the killer until the last episode. I like Chang Young Dae's character. So Charming. Kudos to the writer, director and the cast assemble. . Cho yeo yeong is brilliant. I dont think she killer her husband. Just one of her antics I guess.

Zozo saif Jan 29 2021 3:58 pm I like the drama a lot but I don't know in the end she really killed him or not , I wish not I hope she will left him and then have relationship with Cha soo ho , he really loved her and understand her more than any one

Rayani Jan 29 2021 2:19 pm Kang yeo joo deserve better, e.g cha soo ho

GERALDINE BELLO Jan 29 2021 10:06 am To KBS2; Season 2 please....I want Kang Yeo Joo & Cha Soo Ho's working relationship turn into romantic.

Nonono Jan 29 2021 9:57 am I just wish there's season 2, but i know it's almost impossible

Baraa Jan 29 2021 8:03 am So I really loved this drama from the start to the end. But there a re still a lot of question I need to be answered to like how can the lawyer get jealous when he started to cheat on her. Or what will happen to Mi Rae et what about Mr Ma. Will he die? Is there something between Kang Yeo Joo and Cha Soo Ho? I became addicted to this drama and obviously I learned a lot from her like I swear that If my husband one day will cheat on me I will kill him (not yet I'm still 15).

Jay V Jan 28 2021 11:17 pm The final episode seems a bit rushed but the last scene leaves it open for a possible season 2. Hopefully there’s a season 2. I wanna know what happened to Mi Rae.

Mary Thao Jan 28 2021 7:56 pm This drama deserves Season 2!!!!!

ChN Jan 24 2021 5:43 am This drama is genius. So many questions and possibilities, it's a roller-coaster. I just love it so much. There are so many small details you must notice for the story to make sense. I have read bad reviews on this site about the story being so confusing, well that is what makes it good! No mystery fans would want the mystery be solved at the first episodes. Some of the great mystery books are even unsolved! We love the the roller-coaster!

Mi Jan 23 2021 4:09 am Mystery!!! Really mystery this drama. I really love to watch this drama. Cho Yeo Jeong you really best actress. Plus with all character you all make this drama alive. The comedy between the couple, his friend. I don't know it make me addict to wait and watch it again. I just love to see this drama. 1 more week to go.

Hope the best for you all and the drama. Now with the covid not been solved you all give full commitment for the drama and other drama to us to watch. Thanks and take care of your health. ?

Mi Jan 23 2021 3:58 am 2 more episode. But I don't know how will it be!!!

1. Yeo joo so mystery and hold many secret. I feel so sad at her character. Yeo joo just show her strong. I love how her resolve thing and make it clear to police and make more suspense. I really love her and woo sung + his funny friend.

2.Maybe about her father, the ceo beak su jeong and her mother. The relationship must be bad that give her bad experience before. Last time mr ma have mission to kill Yeo joo and stop by her father at last. Bcz the book.

3. How about their relationship been solved with woo sung and Yeo joo. I need some positive scenes that will make happy ending for them. He at last realized that he truly loved Yeo joo and try to make A good relationship with her.

3. Soo hoo is a good partner with yeo joo. I like the scenes that he try protect her even have suspicious on her. I think his know that Yeo joo is not bad. He will protect her from Mr.Ma. he not realize that her friend like him. Maybe will be worker partner only. Just work for them. Hehehe

4. Ko mirae her character would try to ruin the relationship between Yeo joo and woo sung. She must have one mission in his mind to stay alive from her family and jae ha. I really don't like jea ha. He so mean to mirae and make her to do bad thing. I hope mirae will happy with her live and become more stronger and stay positive.

5. Sad to know that the ahjumma that kill the seo jeong. Must have some plot or history on yeo joo family before this that make ahjumma try to protect yeo joo happiness. I love how her really caring and take care of yeo joo.

6. Maybe yeo joo would take the blame for ahjumma.

7. I don't know what make Yeo joo so scared with ceo beak seo jeong. Must have something!

8. How the police would handle the case before this with mr gwak. And with this it will open the secret with yeo joo father scandal before!!! Mr Nam, yeo joo father and Mr Ma. Would be something.

Whattt Jan 22 2021 11:32 pm This show is all over the place. The maid was sitting at the cafe but police said no one was suspicious there? The maid stood by and listened to FL and mistress convo at the cafe? How did they not noticed her on the cameras the police just watched??.. The police didn’t think to get a warrant to check out FL house? Knowingly, she has the same knives as the killer and was missing a knife? Even though she is a prime suspect?.. How does that make sense? The plot is all over the place in this drama. It feels like the writer don’t know how he would like to end it. The ending will be a cliffhanger..

dabadaba Jan 22 2021 7:43 am I don't understand why the hell they trying to create a story between the lawyer and that foolish student.... stay out of a married couple business, they have their own issue, yours is not needed director is really upsetting me

ChristopherJane Jan 22 2021 1:46 am 2 episodes left.. is there any chance for Soo Ho and Yeo Joo.. I badly want them together. ??

Minda Jan 21 2021 8:05 pm Oh gosh! The plot twist is goosebumps!!

TDS Jan 21 2021 6:09 pm Bravo and absolutely it does not make sense, I thought it was me!

Snoozee Jan 17 2021 10:25 pm Honest opinion of this show so far, it doesn’t make sense at all. I’m already on ep 12 and even more confused. Idk why I continued watching maybe I’m just eager to know who the killer really is. I love the characters and I really enjoyed this show for the first couple of eps but after ep 6 this show lost its plot. Great acting skills but the show does not make sense at all. Their’s no real plot & every ep is like a maze with no end. It should’ve been kept as affair show but adding these unnecessary secret service people is not helping the story.

AJ Jan 17 2021 8:33 pm Hilarious and intense drama with excellent actings! As of the murderer: if I may guess, it could be the CEO of Baek Su-Jeong agency. Remember when she said that Baek Su-Jeong was her "creation" (or something else to that effect)? Metaphorically speaking, it could mean that it is also within her right to "terminate" her "creation"..

haru Jan 16 2021 7:41 am kbs should've let this drama finished until the end because they did not know as it come it its end, the scenes are getting more intense. deserved to be awarded as daesang. unfortunately, they already awarded this last December. so we have no choice. still congratulations to y'all.

WHat Jan 15 2021 5:48 am I'm shocked. I thought we would know who the killer is but up until know we still don't know. A new storyline keeps popping up and new characters are introduced so its kind of interesting where the storyline is going since there are 4 episodes left.

Meanch Jan 15 2021 12:43 am You can't defend HWS. Cheating is cheating. There is no such thing as cheating because of insert reason. If you're not happy either fix it together as a couple or go your separate ways. Considering how many times he's cheated, he deserves what ever he deserves.

Heymi Jan 14 2021 6:38 pm I hate that they leave us hanging every episode with no evidence or clue who the killer is lol like im so confused now....and by now we should get more flash back about her life...

GERALDINE BELLO Jan 14 2021 10:01 am I guess Kang Yeo Joo's housemaid is the killer. Btw, I really find Yeo Joo's character funny & I don't like her husband. Yeo Joo won't threatened him if he's faithful enough to be trusted by her. I like Cha Soo Ho tho.

Mi Jan 13 2021 7:47 pm Best drama!! I really love cho Yeo Jeong play her character. Love watching her drama and movie.

I think Yeo joo has a sad stories with her family. I can see sadness through her eyes. Her father I think the politicians that why her don't want woo sung enter politic. And her father cheating before. Some sadness story make Yeo joo become tough outside.

It really unexpected weather her know or pretend not to know woo sung cheating before koh mirae. I hope that woo sung will be forgive and happy with Yeo joo. Happy ending for them.

But who is the killer!!!!!

Nana Jan 11 2021 12:41 am Idk about other but I really like Kang Yeo Joo character

Hula Jan 08 2021 11:13 pm Kang Yeo Joo is so T O X I C. I know Woo sung deserves it but why does she threaten to kill him in every scene? Fine he got into the marriage willingly but why did they drag Jin Ho and Yoon hee into their cheating mess and drama. And she gave advice to Yoon hee to get rid of the mistress (kill the mistress). Are we supposed to even like any character in this drama. I don’t find the “murder threats” funny. Why is the college student Mi rae persistently trying to steal someone’s husband who isn’t even interested in her. (Still like my boy Soo-Ho tho).

Cecily K. Jan 08 2021 9:08 am Idk... I somehow believe that neither Kang Yeo Joo nor Lawyer Han is the killer. It could be the person whom KYJ was seeing at the end of episode 8. To me that person really is suspicious from the start. Or it could be a new character that we haven't met yet. Who knows.

laura Jan 08 2021 12:02 am I feel like the husband is quite obnoxious as someone got killed and he was involved. To be honest he is far from trustworthy, I agree with his wife. He insisted on this marriage and he is the one who couldn't be loyal at all.

Lindalobe Jan 07 2021 8:12 pm I feel like wife is the way she is because she doesn’t trust anyone including her husband. Before they got married, he was constantly cheating on her and seeing multiple women so I understand why she act like that and im sure she’s not that evil to the point she’ll kill him...she’s probably acting that way because she’s a writer and she needs ideas for her new book

leyla Jan 07 2021 4:58 pm I am honestly voting for the husband to be free from the evil wife with the college girl- they go well together.. and yes, the husband may be wrong for cheating, but he couldn't divorce his villian wife even if he wanted to - she's hella scary and would probably kill him.. what would you do? being scared of someone isn't love... wherever you feel safe is where love begins..

Shairli Jan 04 2021 5:58 pm After Kairos, another drama in line that is good. Hopefully it will end well.

Me Dec 29 2020 2:48 pm What car was soo-ho driving when they were following yeo-joo in ep 4?

Mr.B Dec 28 2020 8:51 pm This Kdrama reminds me of Dangerous Wife. This drama is mixed with mystery and comedy. Cho Yeo Jeong is really cool and the husband looks like the EPL Tottenham Hotspur player, Son.

Calumhood Dec 26 2020 10:49 am @Cecily K. You're not the only one loll her eyeliners are amazing!

Cecily K. Dec 26 2020 12:14 am So glad I finally gathered my interest to watch this drama while it's still not too late! A fun, mystery drama that is packed with good amount of humor. Everyone plays their role well.

I still haven't decided who the killer is, but I'm sure the college girl will have a significant role as the story unveils (since she was promoted as the top 4 leads, of course). I used to have suspicion on the female (newbie?) agent, but I realized she's just taking orders from Mr. Ma.

Also, is it just me or is Kang Yeo Joo's eyeliner kind of distracting? I can't help but to notice them every time she has a close up shot...

Me Dec 25 2020 1:20 am @milk since eps 7 I have my suspicion about the Ajhumma who works in the house. Idk something is off about her.

??? Dec 24 2020 2:16 pm Where is episode 8?

Milk Dec 22 2020 5:10 am @Me she could but it seems too obvious. I’m guessing she’s the murderer next victim or something, since she wants to hide who she is. I wouldn’t be surprised if eom the spy girl is the killer at this point.

Lakmini Dec 21 2020 3:32 am I like this very much. I don t know korean langauge much. But I love this drama. Never missed it..camera, location, costume, lights, makeup everything so cool. It s remember me Moon Lovers?☘?. It s the best one I ever watched .but now i like this one toooo...Good job producer.?

Lakmini Dec 21 2020 3:28 am I like this very much. I don t like know korean much. But I love it.camera, location, costume, lights, makeup everything so cool. It s remember me Moon Lovers. It s the best one I ever watched .but now i like this one toooo

Me Dec 20 2020 10:46 am How many people have thier monies on the "college girl" being the crazy murderer???

April Dec 19 2020 1:16 pm This is a great drama so far. I am up to episode 6 and I love it. I almost stopped watching after episode one thinking it would be a dragging drama with no characters to root for or like but I am so glad I kept going. Twists and turns galore! The more you learn the less you know. Cant wait for more episodes! I never know what will happen next.

maya Dec 19 2020 12:01 pm Excellent drama, the only drama that i dont skip when watch it .. it is mysterious , funny and both actor and actress are great. I cant wait for the upcoming episode.

Corrine W. Dec 19 2020 3:57 am The title of the drama caught my attention then decided to check it.

Glad I stumbled upon this series because it’s surprisingly entertaining. CYJ is a fine actress and she portrays all the right feels..I can’t wait for the next episode and find out what happens next!!

People are definitely sleeping on this underrated gem. I highly recommend everyone to check it out.

sad Dec 18 2020 9:47 am it gets better only with less yeojoo x suho interactions. so sad... coz i ship them

mi rae Dec 18 2020 6:55 am I wonder what Ko Mi Rae's role in this drama. I suspect she is the one behind the killings tbh.

Kalll Dec 18 2020 2:33 am RIP to those who didn't even know this drama existed.....The storyline, the plot, the acting were all perfect...Tbh i stop watching "top" dramas like HotelDL or ItsOkayTNBO at episode 10 or 11 bcs the plot gets boring and more boring...but this one is special, there's always something special happen in every coming episode

Nay Dec 17 2020 7:55 pm I don't care about the low rating of it... i'm still loving this drama

tunaaa Dec 16 2020 2:46 pm It's very entertaining drama. I got hooked just right after the 1st episode.

I recommend you all to watch it. ?

LALA Dec 13 2020 10:05 am i'm going to be so mad if this drama doesn't get the recognition it deservES skjflskdjflks it's sooo good. there's not one boring moment. the plot... the ost!!1111 i think this is the only drama in 2020 that gets me SO obsessed i can't stop rewatching the last 4 eps. Crewss Yall Did A Great Job i hope it won't get ruined until the end AMEN coz all the casts are on top of their game. it gives me parasite vibes but that's probably because cyj is here lmao Anyways the storyline is interesting. it's funny but thrilling at the same time. i just know that there's going to be a huge plot twist in the end so my brain is working hard to come up with theories lol also i can't help but feel required to ship kyj and csh!!!!!! they look good together. their height difference is adorable. also seems like csh has a crush on her??????? he enjoys watching her (smiles along when she smiles) and adores her + gets jealous whenever she's with the cheating hubbie. LOL hoping they'll end up together but somehow i get the feeling that the crush is going to be one-sided, aka kyj doesn't seem to even want to love him back, other than considering him as a close friend/brother... well oh well. as long as she'll divorce the husband...

i can't wait for the next ep. i'm curious who's behind the murder. could it be ma dongkyun?? he told csh to erace all traces related to kyj after all... i wonder why hMmMm (is he a fan? does he secretly love her or what??) also i'm 1000000000000000000000000000% sure kjy knows everything about her husband's affairs. she's way too intelligent to not notice anything. she obviously just plays dumb. but what for????? what's her plan??? surprise Me. Ahhhh Come Faster Wed And Thur!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. i have this feeling that csh might be a huge fan of her from the start. like kyj could be the reason why he wanted to be an agent in the first place, her novels inspired him somehow. he adores her and obv has a crush on her since she's pretty, charismatic, clever and all. then he gets the chance to watch/investigate/stalk (lol) her and that's where he falls for her even more. but he knows he won't have a chance to date her because he's way younger. since kdramas have this (boring) tradition of connecting the characters'pasts with each other.. it's possible for csh to probably have met kyj before(?), either when he was still a kid or few years back..... blah idk what i'm talking about lol i'm taking this drama way too seriously bye Haha

Jijah2020 Dec 13 2020 8:33 am @Lily, you are not alone. Their chemistry is no joke! I just hope Kang Yeo Joo is not the killer and they end up together lol

Maxine Colby Dec 12 2020 12:42 am The young conviniece store worker is now a secret agent most probab working with the character Ep. 3 with actor Oh Min suk ?!?! He looks familiar and still a new actor ...in his wiki he was part if #eulachachawaikiki 2 and recently with park miyoung and seo kang joon's " when the weather is fine " ?!?! Well let's see .. exciting plot !!!

Maxine Colby Dec 12 2020 12:39 am I am still confused with the story ...waiting for Oh min suk of course !!! The writer is mysterious and the cheater husband is taking it really slow this time getting away from a beautiful student at first !?!? The TV personality I wanna fi d out next episode if she's dead ?! Was she placed in that freezer . Waiting g let this not be a boring or Finale will be left for the viewers to decide as in the writer of this kdrama will play safe also just like in other kdramas!! Let's see if it wouldn't fail my expectations !

Lili Dec 11 2020 3:20 pm Wow am i the only one who hope KYJ &,CSH to be together ?

Lalaha Dec 11 2020 1:42 am I feel like her assistant is working for someone who is a FAN of hers and only want him to stalk her to see if there’s anything about her new book that she is working on.....i believed that BSJ told something to KYJ on the night she went missing...and for sure the writer wont make the main female lead a murderer.....And i also think she knows about her husband cheating on her...why they gotta make the husband a cheater >,< Plus pretty rich college girl is kinda sus....have a feeling she might know husband...

Me Dec 10 2020 7:12 pm I'm just so confused. I'm suspecting everyone! Who is going around killing? I havent really let my heart love any character as of yet they all have thier irritating aspects. Main lady is too snooty (bless her she is the only I actually like so far) main dude is a no good cheating dirt bag( if she doesn't kill him it would be his fault) that little girl is my chief suspect, obviously some one is infatuated with the Main dude and is killing off anyone that gets in his way. And I dont trust her "innocent" face. If she is so "innocent" why is she following around a married man??? Tsk tsk

Nakiwa Dec 10 2020 2:44 am From the ep 4 teaser i think csh gonna get smitten by kjy ??

CKW Dec 10 2020 1:33 am I hate dramas about cheating, but this is a whole satire. It's so hilarious I can't even take it seriously. Definitely a must watch!

Lili Dec 08 2020 10:30 am Wow i have no word its so good KYJ & CSH is the best

Mika Dec 08 2020 5:33 am i know im not the only one who sees chemistry between the writer wife and the stalker LOLL ?

Toy Dec 07 2020 2:15 am This drama is hilarious. The first cheating spouse drama I actually find hilarious. Anyways the wife is crazy though. Seriously she needs to see a therapist or a psychiatrist. She’s a tickling time bomb but the husband does deserve it so it makes it hilarious.

Theo Dec 04 2020 4:19 am I don't know why but i found this drama is really funny. Even though the story itself is thriller.

So far, i really like this drama

Kana Dec 04 2020 12:32 am This drama is very interesting. Recommended for you guys, the comedy scene always Made me laughed

Ha J we Dec 03 2020 8:52 am Yoo So-Young look so good here, I wish she become one of the regular cast

Solar Dec 03 2020 3:54 am The first episode was soooo good!!!

dramacute Dec 02 2020 8:26 am Yeo jeong seems like a sweetheart, during script reading she looks close with the cast and has a bright energy to her. Loving the height difference between main leads...All the cast seems great

Bugzy Nov 29 2020 8:01 am I will watch this cuz of Kim Ye-won!!!!

nei nei Nov 24 2020 8:24 pm the story seems interesting and unique. Can't wait!

Shairli Nov 23 2020 11:30 pm Both actors are my favs... cant wait!

PANDORA Nov 08 2020 4:41 pm The teasers are amazing, Korean dramas are on another level, top tier form of entertainment.

Nomnom Nov 04 2020 7:50 pm Gojoon is super cute ampp I'm so happy for him that he accept romcom dramas as I discovered him through intense action movies fighting and unnie!

Smile Oct 14 2020 11:38 am Excited for this!!! Go joon never fails in choosing a good script and no doubt shows an excellent performance. Yeo jeong seems like a sweetheart, during script reading she looks close with the cast and has a bright energy to her. Loving the height difference between main leads...All the cast seems great, looking forward to young dae too. Hope viewers ratings soar for this!! Can’t wait ?

imo don't @ me Sep 22 2020 7:12 am Cho Yeo-jeong's role in Parasite was indeed good and unique but not very helpful to get her into my preference. But she caught me in Casa Amor. She looks so fine playing that kind of character. Not to mention that she is considered as a hottie too. So does with Go Joon, he is always that hot papito. A hottie deserves to be paired with a hottie too. Their appearance and vibes are in the same mature spectrum also. Can't wait for this bomb.

Ginger Crunch Aug 19 2020 12:56 am Here for Kim Ye Won been waiting for her return to dramaland so she’ll be a treat to watch! So happy right now made my day even though she’s just in a support role I’m not fussed because she’s a multi dimensional actress.

Greta Aug 05 2020 10:44 pm I love Go Joon and I watched him play a gangster in Save Me,The Fiery Priest and a lover boy in Oh My Baby..his a good actor and I'm excited to see him taking a diffrerent role this time

Lili Jul 23 2020 3:54 am i am waiting

scarletsungrok Jul 20 2020 4:04 pm looks interesting!

Idn98 Jul 20 2020 2:47 pm Good cast, hot yeojeong
