okay i’m really in love with this show and I don’t even care how everyone keeps popping up cause I don’t know which direction they’re going!
I sort of felt guilty cause I thought tae ho looked really good in his black suit but then he opened his mouth and i was like right you’re a killer. i mean he even killed jaehyun (which i didn’t see coming)and he had the nerve to put the blame on joon oh. like joon made some dumbass decisions (like the driving under influence) however he didn’t deserve that. And it must’ve been even harder for him to hear it was tae ho cause he sort of still trusted him and cared about him despite everything. Ugh I felt to sad for joon oh. that’s why I was happy how everyone comforted him when he came back. i love how they’re all comfortable around each other (the scenes where they were playing in the snow, ki joon being so open about his feelings and joon oh and bong hee talking about the silliest things were too cute).

what i don’t understand is how no one is protecting these survivors from tae ho. I mean it’s pretty well known that tae ho and his company are evil but then these dumbasses let mr. tae (who sometimes pisses me off) alone with investigator oh, of course something’s about to go wrong. same with this reporter (whom i love for shaking things up) who knows tae ho is a killer but doesn’t take any measures to protect himself. y’all crazy.

also i expected tae ho to blame everything on bong hee since we don’t really know if joon oh’s alive but of course it makes sense to blame everything on joon oh since he’s already hated by everyone at home.
Can’t wait for the next episodes!!

For a drama that's all about survival no ones really has any sense of self preservation lol. So Hee didn't have to die, and the journalist didn't need to be all up in the murderers face, seriously

I definitely didn't see it coming that Tae Ho would blame Joon Oh, I thought he was gonna go after Bong Hee. I mean, eventually he did but it's crazy how much he hated Joon Oh that he had to sabotage him even after "death".

I knew that Secretary Tae was gonna be the next survivor when Bong Hee's mom gave her her new jacket that looked so similar to the one Secretary Tae was wearing the whole time on the island. I can't believe they didn't think that he should be protected from Tae Ho, like seriously you have just one person take him around and then after leaving him by himself you think nothing happened??? I don't get it

I hope that Joon Oh really does survive but only comes back when the truth is out lol I don't think I could deal with the anxiety of him coming back then going to jail.

The whole deal with Chairwoman Jo is crazy to me. Like one minute she's like "let's think of the victims" then she's like "ok whatever cover the truth as long as we look good" like how can she not care that she is letting a MURDERER roam free. She knows that he killed at least two people. Also I have a feeling when she hugged him and let him know that Bong Hee had pegged him as a killer she was trying to warn him not to say that she was gonna let the world know but to help her come up with a different narrative. Because it makes NO sense that she even told him what she knew before deciding to do the press conference

Also I read somewhere that Yeol's character description says that he did something he regrets immensely in his past, so actually the theory is that Yeol was the drunk driver and Joon Oh covered for him, and that's why he was so continuously loyal to him

I hadn't even thought of that as a possibility for the Yeol/Joon Oh connection but it makes perfect sense to me. I'm actually hoping that is true.

I love Jung Kyungho! His 'THORNS!!! THORNS!!!' and 'It's a rabbit..' killed me. Love to know that in Joon Oh's world, there's bones in rabbit's ears. XD Now I wonder how Kang Haneul going to fit in this role considering the fact that I have never seen him in comedic roles before.

I love how the writer consistently put comedy in this rather serious drama.

This drama has done great at keeping me on my toes, I'm surprised every week by what's happening.

Ugh, Tae Ho be murdering everyone, I wish he had just died in the plane crash, then everyone could have been happy and safe. I felt so happy when he fell off the cliff, even though I (obviously) knew he'd be okay in the future. The cute little relationship forming between Joon Oh and Bong Hee is adorable and I'm hoping that he'll still be alive at the end of this. I'm ready for them to start moving towards how people were found and why everyone's being found separately.

They should have put Taeho in the dirt as soon as they found out about Yeol. Episode 7 makes that VERY clear, lol. I don't like that Chairwoman Cho or whomever the fuck she is. She's been rotten from the jump and I don't know exactly what her angle is.

Bong Hee beating on the window for Trasho is my kind of woman. She was like here's what you're NOT going to do. I know they tied Taeho up, but.....let's just stop avoiding the inevitable and shank him. Lol. I know that Joonoh is going through a lot, they all are because they had been together for so long and thought they knew one another.

Jiah is another favorite character of mine. I'd love to see more women characters like her dramas. Especially in a crime drama or thriller type of drama. I hate when people who are clearly guilty take detectives for fools. Prosecutor Yoon is not one, he especially isn't one when it comes to finding out who murdered his sister. Me and Taeho's face were the same when another survivor was announced, lol. Hangho has been through so much, I don't want any of those people around him.

I can completely understand what Joonoh is feeling. Everybody blamed him, he blamed himself, and to suddenly find out that none of it was true? That his friend was killed. And that someone close to all of them (probably Taeho) was responsible. That's too much to feel at once. And, like I thought, Taeho killed Jaehyun the exact way he killed Yeol. Taeho is like a bill collector, he will NOT go away. Ugh. It's sad that they clearly threatened Hangho or paid him so that he'd lie.

This is so frustrating.
