DH's family is separated in 2 : the daughter and the father who don't work and love to steal things in the shop and the son and the mother who work hard. But they helped each other, the father tried to make stake out for SB and the sister helped with the store.

Poor SB, she is really not helped by her sister. Signing a contract without the consent of her guardian won't make a rich suddenly... I understand she has a dream but stealing from her sister was really wrong and using her sister's friend too. SB's friend is nice and it was sad to see her trying to protect SB from her father. DH gave the excuse the bad excuse of the guardian but he cares about her, he wants to help her.

I really like how SB tried to give space to DH but it's his girlfriend who messed up. She used SB as an excuse for their issues, but she's the one who doesn't assume a boyfriend who is not from the same circle of friends.

I think Yeon-joo's mouth was also doing something else

Thank you for the weecap @missvictrix!

I adore Saetbyul and Daehyun's mum. Mum really cares for Saetbyul. And I like the community around the convenience store, they seem close knit. And I also like that SB wasn't the only one who got scammed, a lot of her neighbours were scammed too and they made a group to discuss the scam report. It made it more believable and I'm thankful the show didn't make SB a super naive easily scammed person.

Little sister has serious issues with her idol plan. She commited fraud, she has an alleged bully video. I doubt she can debut smoothly. Poor Saetbyul, her sister is not helping lessen her burden at all.

YJ and DH are struggling to keep their relationship in one piece. They are so different. They are slowly learning their feelings for each other, in their own way (twisted way for YJ). They've been cruising in their happy bubble for several years, neither introduced each other to their families. I don't feel they will last long but I look forward to see them have a real conversation for once to address their problems.

Lastly...I'm team cameo! Jiwook and Saetbyul are so good together, she can show her real feelings in front of him. I hope they will be friends to lovers in the drama. Hahaha

This is currently the best comedy currently airing. And it actually has some fundamental things to tell us about romance and family. I am particularly glad that someone has noticed that Kim Yoo-jung is NOT being "oversexualized" or exploited in this drama.

I too loved how it was Momma who rescued Saet-byul from the sauna and brought her home. Momma may have been impressed by Yeon-joo but in a way she has subconsciously fallen in love with Saet-byul - as a future daughter in law. Not consciously but I think she subconsciously realizes that her family desperately needs Saet-byul- it is not just Dae-hyun who needs he- although it is obvious that he does.

Dae-hyun chasing after the thieving realtor, getting his father to do a stake-out, etc. shows that he really is there for Saet-byul, even though he still, at this moment, is not interested in her romantically. Instead we saw him desperately buying a second night's tickets for THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA as he continues to fight for his relationship with Yeon-joo. But Yeon-joo has to be reminded- by Saet-byul- what a truly great guy Dae-hyun is. She has already kissed Saeung-joon at that point. So she has to take Saet-byul's warning seriously.

Saet-byul's words to Yeon-joo reminding her that Dae-hyun has very high value also reveal how she sees him now. When she first came to the store she had a fantasy about him. That fantasy had to evaporate once it came into contact with reality- and Saet-byul has now learned about Dae-hyun's flaws and idiosyncrasies. But she has also learned that the most important elements of her phantasy were real in fact- Dae-hyun really is a very good and honorable man.

Misvixtrix expressed the idea that not much happened this week plot-wise- and with no first kiss between the main leads, etc. at first that seems to be true. I respectfully disagree: This weeks episode were absolutely pivotal. It really comes down to the reason behind Saet-byul's warning to Yeon-joo:

Before Saet-byul was willing to step aside for the sake of Dae-hyun's happiness- and not interfere with his relationship with Yeon-joo. But now that she has a better understanding of Yeon-joo she has just changed the rules: She will still step aside but ONLY if Yeon-joo shapes up. If Yeon-joo fails to move forward in her relationship with Dae-hyun then Saet-byul will take him away from her. Either Yeon-joo gets serious about him or Saet-byul will get serious about him. She even has an ally- Momma is already in her corner. This may be subtle but in fact it is a true game changer.

The absolute highlight was seeing and hearing Ji Chang Wook singing the theme song from DOTS while ironing/steaming his shirt!!! LOL!!!That was so adorkable 🥰🤣

i love this show! it drew me in right from the beginning even though it seemed a little odd at first. now everything makes sense and i love ji chang wooks subtle/crazy vibes. he can be extreme or can just let you taste the characters vibes and you understand what is going on. this sounds crazy hard to understand but i will leave it here! oh and kim yoo jung is just awesome too. they fit together well

I find Yeon-joo really interesting. She was raised in a household where money and class was (and is) everything and she's constantly having to combat this snobby perception while having a poor boyfriend. This is understandable to a degree. She's just used to a certain style and so is he. They never have had that conversation to reconcile those differences. However, they've been at this relationship for 2 years. She needs to come to terms with their social status now or never. At the end of the latest episode, I think she finally realized that he's worth more than his status. I feel so bad for Yeon-joo hecause every time she has these epiphanies Saetbyul accidentally gets in the way. But I swear I'm rooting for our leads to get together. lol

That scene where she's using her hair to hide her sob face was a brilliant scene. I don't know who I should thank for coming up with that, but that was so well done and made my heart break more for Saetbyul.

I love the growing friendship between Saet Byul and Dae Hyun’s eomma. Their scenes were very heartwarming just like last weeks episode. Kim Sun Young just cracks me up everytime she’s shouting and Kim Yoo Jung is so gorgeous I feel like I’m hypnotized whenever she’s on screen. Anyway, I’m still waiting for Dae Hyun’s character development, I’m getting tired of him not having a backbone in his relationship with Yeon Joo. There’s still time, please make Dae Hyun’s character interesting jebal.

If Dae Hyun doesn't end up dating Saet Byul, I hope Dae Hyun's mom adopts her, I tear up every time I see them together.

I realize that I have a final comment on the test- and it was exactly that, a real test, that Yeon-joo's mom arranged for her. Having Dae-hyun deliver supplies to her- right in front of Yeon-joo- was mean but legitimate. Had Yeon-joo introduced her boyfriend her mom and dad would have had to to accept him even to his marrying Yeon-joo. She would have had to do this morally because this is exactly what her parents did for her. Many of us have caught on to the fact that YJ failed that test. But equally important moving forward is what her mom said next. She said "And you know how that turned out?" followed by "You are wiser than I am". In other words she is saying that YJ failed the test but made the right decision.

So moving forward I expect that now mom will be seeking to end YJ's relationship with DH, not because she would not have accepted him but simply end YJ's time wasting struggle with that relationship- and of course, steering her towards the more suitable alternative.

We are at the mid-point of this drama, a natural inflexion point. Saet-byul has changed the rules- and so has YJ's mom. And, by bringing Saet-byul into their home, so has Dae-hyun's mom.

Disappointing drama, can't watch anymore.
Ji Chang Wook, you are wasting your talent. SAD.
