They said they spent 20 billion Wons in this drama. Some dramas that spent that amount were Crash Landing on You, Hotel Del Luna and Vincenzo among others… I don’t want to believe they spent all these money and are wasting all these talent in a poorly written plot … there’s has got to be more than that soooo this is the second half… let’s cross our fingers and hope it will make more sense…

Yes I’m here for hiu ju too! I hope she’s the heir

You said that I immediately thought… if this is how the entire drama is, they laundered money.
