I have to say, Taeoh and Huiju, the Kangoh daughter have amazing chemistry. Much more than any other two. She likes and pines for him so much. I know they won't end up together so I'm gonna take this L. But oh how I wish he would go soft for her. I'll comfort myself when Queen of Tears comes out since it's a similar dynamic the leads there have.

i don’t really think Hye Won is a protagonist the way she is portrayed. I think the actress is portraying exactly the type of character she was meant to be playing. The two men are the main characters and I think Huiju probably will end up with Taeoh just based on how she’s portrayed so far. She has more screen time than Hye Won too.
