Hye Jin should come back as a Zombie and eat her husband.

Your little bracketed comments were thoroughly amusing @dramaddictally thank you.

"After some negotiation, and a few threats, the two cook up a plan to get Chang-ho out of prison so he can help find the paper from the outside. The plan is simple: he will turn in Big Mouse."

-- Again? didn't this literally happen like *checks watch* 4 episodes ago? Is this secretly a time loop drama?

"His team can start getting down to business solving Dr. Seo’s murder case"

-- Finally, after... 12 episodes...

Why is every man and his dog connected to this paper.
Room Leader Noh out of nowhere "oh yeah I also need the paper and I am Big Mouse". Sir, why? How? You're nobody? Nah, Jerry is obviously the real Big Mouse, just watch, I know I'm right and totally not just projecting :P :P

Thanks to a certain icecream Queen, I am now in the unique position of having picked up a drama halfway through because a) with these writers everything so far is unimportant anyway and b) I was sent some amazing still of a torture trip with giant mice and ended up being sucked into the maelstrom of nonsense.

I may not last nonetheless but here I am for now.

I enjoyed episode 12 the most of the series so far. I liked the battle couples and I'm glad "big mouse" was finally revealed. I still think Jerry is the other part of the whole big mouse myth.
I was also pleased that I was seemingly right about the room leader haha

The doctor's (ex)wife wasn't surprising but it was sad. It's just seeing an abused wife try and fail to escape that just hurts for me.

Your suit count always brings a smile to my face @dramaddictally! I guess we'll see lots more of those now that Chang-ho's out of the prison browns.
I'm having a lot of fun with how absolutely bonkers this show is. Everything that happens feels predictable and also completely unexpected at the same time - like Mi-ho and that landslide/ mine collapse/ whatever it was.
P.S. Am I the only one who's becoming weirdly fond of Ji-hoon? He's just so loony and incompetent but still funny!

Even the explosion was predictable and not as fun as Vagabond's.
And how does the one who holds the knife to be the one who get stabbed?

No Park seems like a parent for Big Mouse. The one who took the blame, the one who embraced Big Mouse, as a person and maybe as an organization.
Hope he is not dead.
But where's Jerry? Why he is getting less and less screentime? One scene? That's so cruel. Kwak Dongyeon doesn't deserve this.

So far, i think these people are on neutral side: Mayor Choi, Gong Jihoon, No Park, Warden Park, Jerry, Yang Chunsik (had to google his name), Prosecutor Choi. Who else?
To become Big Mouse, that someone must have power but not high enough to draw attention. Just close enough to take a look at everyone.

Finally LJS getting that hairstyle and he looks fcckng handsome. I know people have been debating about his looks. But he is handsome enough for me. Just enough for me to be a fan because i have this strange trust issues for guys who have extremely handsome visual. Should i make the list?😂

But unfortunately, i decided to drop Big Mouth. Man, it's exhausting and draining and this isn't why i watch kdramas (shoutout to M, thank you M💕).
This is LJS' worst project to me. Even worst than Doctor Stranger, at least there was a time I loved and enjoyed it.

PLEASE Im so tired at all these big mouse reveals. I didn't feel an ounce of shock at this reveal (im so disappointed) as I was mostly doubting its credibility instead.

Anyways, I'm glad the show is finally picking up the pace and raising the stakes. (Anyone else shocked at how fearless and badass Mi-ho was just running into disaster?) I've been dying to move on from the prison narrative (the riot sequence was well done) and to get more outside narrative instead.

I'm just hoping the final few eps would be enough to wrap up the show

I'm in the minority as I thoroughly enjoy this show, partly because it's mindless fun, but partly because it can get so nonsensical for no reason. For the enjoyment of the comment section, here are such moments:

-the GULL Changho has to pull off an ultimatum for BM when the latter did nothing but save his behind for 9+ cincecative episides. "Show thyself or were not working together anymore" right real threatning dude, this literal criminal mastermind is SHAKING
-then, when BM tried to fool him, Changho did NOT follow the ultimatum and just presented the exact one again.
-and it EFFIN WORKED.
-"you brought me out by the collar.. you were too smart for warden Park..." was he? HOW? He just called yer bluff and did NOTHING to counteract it and then your'e like "nah he"'s a genious actually"
-I would LOVE to know who sent (ex) warden Park, now charged with exploitation and curruption, to the same exact penitentiary he used to run. There is no world where this makes sense- unless its the only penitentiary in the universe?
-(ex) warden Park telling Changho "so you didnt betray us? " Bro I'm pretty sure Changho was never actuvely working with you. Even then, he didnt bettay BM as much as he screwed you, specifically, do to your actions.
-Just the idea of Hye Jin hauling blood vials across borders. Thats it.
-How is the serial killer a model prisoner? Didn't he incite violence in a brawl earlier in the show and outright tried to MURDER Changho???? And actually stabbed RL???
-The fact that Big Mouse l's sigil is a burning sword bewilders me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
-Chaurmen Yang saying he hates traitors and being revealed as a loyal character as if he didnt betray the VIP's.
-There was the scene where Jihoon visits Changho's office offers Changho a place in the family, Changho tells his to stick his offer and call the Elder, and then he leaves. HIS OWN OFFICE. Baby why are you exiting stafe left this is YOUR place tell Jihoon to leave!!!
-the whole press confrence. "Isn't it inappropriate for the person who caught BM to represent him?" (Good point) "actually since I'm his lawyer he confessed to all his crimes :)" (not an answer, and also brings up another question-) "isn't it unethical for a lawyer to act NOT in their client best intrest?" (True) "a lawyer job is not to cover for crimes" (what?)
-ok but if RL pleads the fith, how did they even charge him as big mouse? What are the evidence?
-The show ignores how at the beggining Changho did attempt blackmail (blackmailing the wrong person) and attempted to beribe a judge (which didn't show up to trial...) The only reason Changho shouldn't be persecuted and disbarred is becuase he was too incompetent to pull off those crimes properly.
-LOVE how they try to make Changho look compotent and awesome when he just has main character syndrome. "He might be more dangerous than Big Mouse himself!!!" He just stumbled into this discovery and had a plan that didnt...

I do not understand why Hye Jin is back in Korea for the blood sample collection. She was introduced as a cook doing Tv shows etc and she doesn't know the contents of the paper, so why is she actually needed to be in Korea?

Mayor's wife suddenly wants a position in some administration because she is shaken to the core by the thing she saw in research lab. So does it mean she is also trying to bring down the Elder? She was born and raised by the Elder, but suddenly gets a wake up call from all the atrocious things he has been doing?

The psychopath prisoner turning loyal towards Mi Ho because she once revived him with CPR and gave him sleeping injections to stop his seizure seems very lazy writing.

This is still entertaining, but so many scenes don't make sense and dragging the reveal of the BM turned to be a negative for thd show because the viewers are skeptical of a weak character being BM.

I was thinking, that revealing who Big mouse was had happened very easily, they basically just revealed it. It was suspicious, only for him to die and now we have another mysterious character to unveil. Considering the fact that Jerry is alive and still there, I think it's him. We know his family, so maybe he was the boyfriend of Big mouses daughter. Who knows!

I just want to rant about how reckless Mi Ho is 🤯. She walked into a collapsing cave with potential toxic things unprotected? To look for an inmate?

Watching Lee Jong-Suk walk in a suit is such a delight for the eyes 😍 but how reckless of him to leave Ji Hoon in his new office! Any one ever heard of bugs?

can't wait to see Chang ho (aka Kim Soo Hyun) in said named suits! gonna watch it tonight!

I have been saying that I think Jerry is the other part of the Big Mouse conspiracy group/thing/myth and while I stand by that, now I'm wondering if there's a 3rd person. Intially, I thought it was Mi Ho's father just because it felt like something was slightly untrustworthy about him, I guess? I don't even know but it did cross my mind but NOW, I'm wondering if was Chang Ho's best friend/lawyer.
It makes sense that he would have access to things on the outside such as planting the evidence that led to Chang Ho being turned into Big Mouse. He would have a reason for wanting Chang Ho to live. He would knowledge from all involved because he could coordinate with the Big Mouse members as well as Chang Ho's people.
It makes sense that someone still has to be controlling chess pieces (such as who was sending notes to Jerry while he was in the hospital)
I don't think the friend was on anyone's mind which makes it perfect for him to be apart of the Big Mouse thing.
