I feel like even though this week was light on the plot, it explored our characters and their family more. I loved that Moo Hak is blunt with Dali when it comes to money. He doesn't hide his approach to money, regardless of his feelings for her. The point where he told her that she is in the wrong when it comes to doing charity with other people's money was so very true and on point. I love that Dali respects art but at the same time realises that it is directly related to money. I want to know why Tae Jin broke up with Dali. It seems like someone made him do that. I liked the scene of him fussing over his tie in the car, mainly because I want to see this cold guy sweat it out for making our girl suffer. I love that Dali doesn't let anyone trample her over. She may not be naive when it comes to money but she isn't a pushover. I also like that this drama shows how galleries are dependent on wealthy people but at the same time the purpose they can serve to the common people who wish to enjoy art. The drunken scene where Dali calls Moo Hak a handsome money grubber and strokes his hair made me smile from ear to ear. I want more of this couple each week.

I am finally able to see Kim Min Jae's charm😍 that other beanies have been talking about. I also like the OST in this drama, the music is as classy and dignified like Dali. Unlike "You are my spring", the mystery here doesn't bother me and the story about art/gallery is refreshing.

They introduced a few more characters around Moo-hak which is good. I wonder what role the 2FL? is going to play but I like that she seems to be more of a friend than another love triangle. Their lunch at the cafeteria was hilarious and the fact that they were oblivious to the snickers of the students around them are too funny.

Moohak indeed has a good business sense and if there is anyone that can turn around that museum, it would be him. But Dali is not a candy too, she does know how to land some snarky comeback especialy to that chaebol who belittled her.

Anyway, while I am enjoying the scenes, I still kept wondering, what happened to the watch?

The episodes were fun but I would like more talking about art and less about money.

Moo-Hak is all about money, we didn't see him really working. I mean he's the boss and he has the time to make a sitting in a museum (twice)? To go to a gallery reunion, buy coffee, shopping, etc.

I wonder what Tae-Jin asked Da-Li to do in the past, sell the gallery? Take her father's position? I'm pretty sure it's the reason she doesn't to ask his help.

I wonder when the ML and FL will realize they surround by the villains, they're pretty obvious though...

I love their chemistry, it really works!

I really do not like Tae-jin- who seems to be playing a double game. of some sort, even though he obviously wants Dali back. It is obvious that while it was Tae-jin who broke up with Dali five years ago that this was not his idea- rather his family forced him to do it. Which is why we have to ask if his family had something to do with the desperate situation the museum is now in- or did her worthless cousin have something to do with it- or perhaps with her father's death. Remember that her 'brother' the detective is in this drama for a reason.

IN any case I love our OTP- these two really do complement each other- and Missvictrix is right in thinking that once these two really get together they will be unstoppable.

This drama is delightful. While the OTP is my front and centre favorite (who complement each other way), Dali and Tajin’s scenes have weight and undercurrent that is devastatingly attractive.

Can’t wait to see the growth journey of our two leads.

I love this drama and its fun BUT I just dont get the plot holes! How is Dali, A woman who speaks 7 languages and has a PHD and was a top curator at a European art firm not have enough money to buy shoes and stay at a hotel? I mean Yes, I get it, your father had debts but what about her personal monies. I mean I would think she would have made well into the 6 figures working for that gallery she was at. Did it all disappear like a poof of smoke? IDK..

This week was a little weak but still cute and funny.. The bar scene had me gushing.. that was really cute. I love Moo Hak character but that secretary lady who keeps disrespecting Dali is working my last nerve. I'm like okay, Fired, next.

This is so cute, took me out of my more than half a year long drama slump. That being said, does anyone else have the urge to punch the resting-b*tch-face whats-her-name working in Dali's gallery in the nose and watch her bleed? Or is it just me?

I love Dali and I cannot wait to see more of her charm! Park Kyu-young is doing such a great job bringing Dali to life.

After 4 episodes behind I can say that I don't like female lead as a character. Such a rich upbringing and she is that clueless about what was going on with her father and bussines! How possible to be that much isolated! Her cousin never called her after her father's death and she still runs behind him and ask what to do! She doesn't call police for dozen of half naked gangsters but she calls police for couple of angry guys 😁

I can't wait for Muhak's takeover of the cafeteria 😀

From the beginning of this year until now, this is the show that I can't wait for its next episodes! How come we only have 2 short episodes per week, this is so unfair for the entire human race.

The show is simply gorgeous. I love the FL, and Im beginning to be able to warm up to ML as a character. The humor is on-point. Everything is so on-point here. I'm happy that I've found this little gem.

My only complaint is that I can't seem to find the song played at the background when the FL tripped over the ML. The song is played again during the credit in ep4. Any help would be so very much appreciated.

Oh I cried buckets in episode 4. I can totally relate to Dalli.
My father suddenly passed away 5yrs ago from a heart attack and left me with a bad shape company. There were lists of creditors and my father's name were the guarantee. Of course I didn't have Moohak or Taejin ready to cover my back, I had to survive on my own, keeping the good people to stay with me and convincing those creditors that I would do my best to pay those debts.
It was a long and tiring battle and finally, I can see some results of those seemingly impossible hardworks.
When Dalli read last messages from her father, I just broke down with tears. My latest conversation with my father was when he was feeling pain on his chest. One hour later, he was gone. The sky was falling that day.
I appreciate Moohak's opinion that we have to do good deeds with money that we earn, not from donations or sponsorship.
I'm so ready to see how Moohak saves the sinking ship.
Kwon Yul never really catches my attention, but my, he looks gorgeous with long hair. He seems cold on the outside but yes, him fussing with the ties with just a call from Dalli is super cute. I'm sure he's not a bad man, probably just a victim of a bad sitiation.

My favorite scene this week is when Dali is crying but starts talking about how tears lubricate the eyes so it's necessary 😂 Her dialogue there sounds like such a true-to-life PhD (using intellectualism to deal with her emotions). I have had real conversations like this! very funny.

Moo-hak is a sweetie. Though I wish he'd just be loud and not yell. Truthfully, I am surprised a that I like such a blustery character like him.

It was nice to see Dal-li respect the "we are not friends" boundary. Its been nice to see someone not disregard what someone's said immediately. I like that she takes these kind of things seriously.

Hopefully there is more upcoming Won-tak.

Mi-ri was also great mix of friend, know-it-all, and exasperated assistant.

Thank you @missvictrix for the open thread. I think you hit the nail on the head when you wrote about Moo-hak: “he has a good heart”. Despite all his bombast he is aware of others and having that good heart separates him from typical kdrama rich boys.
I thought that the Moo-hak/Won-tak exchange as they left in the morning was great slapstick comedy: elbowing each other down the stairs. I agree, let’s see more of Hwang Hee. I really don’t see the plot going the way of a Won-tak/Dal-li romance. Because of the murder mystery angle in order to protect Dal-li I can see a possible bromance develop between Moo-hak and Won-tak (maybe along the lines of Park Hyung-sik and Ji Soo in SWDBS). Where a romance may develop might be between Mi-ri and Won-tak.
O/T Actor Ahn Dong-yeob (in pic 3 above in the car, he is the middle ‘thug’ sitting in the back seat) is also in HOMETOWN (not CHA CHA CHA) which I am also watching and he plays an assistant to a loan shark, maybe he is a thug wannabe in that one.

This week I learnt that art gallery doesn't make money and it depends on wealthy people's money to sponsor them.

But it touched my heart knowing the reason why Dal-Li and her father work on the art gallery, I used to think it's just all for showing off that you're rich.

And the scene where Moo Hak asks her why don't she just sell everything and go back to Netherlands, and she said that the gallery is her father.., omo..., I got really teary at this scene..

I also agree with Moo Hak's father that Dal-Li might be smart and well educated, but she doesn't know about business world. She needs help...

It seems like it's hard for her to ask for help regarding managing the situation that her art gallery is crumbling...

Of course she still go out to find sponsors for the gallery's upcoming event, but really she need to solve the root issue first..

I hope Moo Hak will help her in this thing.

This drama also takes thing different.

The scene when she moves out of her house, I thought that the writer might write her as crashing at her cop's friend or Moo Hak's house; like most drama would do.

But no.

She went to sleep at her art gallery office. Wow. That's one woman who stands on her own feet.

I'm curious how the writer will bring them together.

I'm eager to know what Tae Jin said to her that they broke up.

I'm eager to see more of Moo Hak's capability as a business person. Can he help Dal-Li revive the art gallery? How would he do that?

I'm hoping to see next week with more sweet scenes between of both of them and more of Moo Hak's assistant (she's quirky and so funny!) and more of Dal-Li's cop friend (can we see more bromance scene of him and Moo Hak?)

In short, this drama is refreshing and great.

Can't wait for next week!

Out of every premiere its this drama that I didn't expect to be so fun. Also Dali as a character is so easy to come off as dull but Park Gyuyoung somehow made it work. And I did enjoy the scenes of her working in Netherlands so much. I know this debt thing is gonna be the main plot but I wish the writer works out a way not to make our awesome heroine a damsel in distress

Damn, the cruel break ups, I wish I had a chance like Dali has to get back with ex face to face and refuse him

I laughed at that sly glance that Dali threw at Moo Hak's chest with full tattoo. and I couldn't help but wonder: did she know it was fake?

Maybe ... did she not have her eyes entirely closed in the Netherlands when he asked her too???

I wonder if Moo-hak bought the jewelry that Dal-li sold at the shop they both were in.

Apparently Google translate has opinions about our Dali..

If you don't get invited to this house's year-end party once
To the extent that it has been said that it is not a true upper class
She is the only daughter of a reputable Cheongsongga.

She has a deep knowledge of not only art but also history, philosophy and religion.
She is also fluent in seven languages, including English, Japanese, Chinese, French, and Spanish.
However, her sudden death and bankruptcy of her father
She is left with nowhere to go overnight.
No matter how fluent in seven languages, she has a master's or doctoral degree
Without her immediate helper, she is a life worm who can't even eat a meal.
As she runs into unforeseen misfortune, she suffers from severe body aches.

Her dad maybe a paragon in her eyes but he was not a wise man or father. Other than leaving her horrendous financial problems he let her grow up in an academic elite ivory tower with apparently only him as a friend. Now here she is ugly crying and eating old ass candy and sleeping in an office. Pitiful.

I actually understand why some beanies said they would drop the show after the premiere. I agree. This drama unique selling point is Dali. Even Kim Min jae's character is not enough to make it up for the long list of annoying secondary characters here, or the unnecessary male characters bullying a lady in need who is grieving the death of a father. Even if that father left her in debts, all these people totally lack empathy, and some of them are supposed to be from a high class???
I blame the writer, because he/she wants to make it look like only Moo-hak and the ex fiance would/could help her, in order to establish the love triangle, and it feels forced. I don't like that.
Also, Moo-hak is annoying, screams too much, and impose himself in a very rude and unbearable way. What then? Am I suppose to like that because he is the male lead and he is gorgeous to look at??
No. I am not happy with it. I blame the writer again.
I won't drop, but I have started to FF some parts because it is upsetting.
I suppose I am curious enough to find out how they will save the gallery, but... the way things are happening.... for me, it shows that the writer is more like Moo-hak and less like Dali 😂😂😂😂😂
