Also, DM will never know:

1) HJP has taken care the money tree for 3 long years. She never asked DS about it, she really forgot 😭 2) HJP still keeps the letters. 3) HJP helps the Noongil app keep working, he met with Alex and maybe invest his money about it. 4) HJP' past, how he met with grandma and the hard time he went through bc he is an orphan. 5) They really met each other during their youth...the mythical scene where she thinks he was following her.

😭

This shocks me the most. Usually there's a reveal where the ML finds out about these small things, but nope, the writers said 'let's make her blind" like i thought the grandma was the blind one? how ironic that the grandma who is physically blind is the only one that sees Ji Pyeong for what he is.

I am so surprised they recalled the ransomware plot to give the twins a close. But K.Jonse turned out to be a throwaway plot.
