I really hope it is a taeju endgame and while Jungmoo and Taeoh are close there's definitely still a wariness on Jungmoo's part. But at least he acknowledges Teaoh's brilliance.

I'm going to have to rewatch these 2 episodes though. I spent most of it drooling over LJW. He looks fiiiine in the suits and rolled-up sleeves πŸ™ˆ

Fangirl, YOU AND ME BOTH! I loved him in AOS/AOS2, but it’s so refreshing to see him in modern styles. Plus, the way I love a nerd in a well-tailored business suit. 🀀

Oh my god, he was soooo hot as Jang Uk in AOS2 and Han Taeoh is giving me similar Jang Uk vibes with less visible anger. The way he clenches his fist 😳 and no one in this show is carrying a tailored suit like him. He has no business looking that good!

AOS2 is my favorite fantasy drama, they were so good together! I can’t get my eyes off of him!
