We’re only on ep 1 but the pacing and atmosphere are very similar to season 1, which I think is a good thing. There are references to what happened in season 1 and I’m really interested to see where that might lead to now. I’m glad that these events continue to have repercussions and even though two years have passed, that’s not a lot of time when it comes to legal disputes. I’m excited to see Lee Yeon-jae coming back on screen as the badass and vengeful CEO, and see how she’s dealing with her father’s lawsuits and her husband’s death. And of course, our resident weasel Seo Dong-jae! He doesn’t seem to change one bit from the promo for ep 2. haha
It’s so good to see JSW as Hwang Shi-mok again – and really, he’s not as emotionless as he’d like you to believe. I cracked up at his exasperation when the Chief at Tongyang’s office wanted to have lunch with him after berating him for not showing up to the going-away-party the day before. :3
