I was kicking myself for having forgotten to mention this, but how darn selfish is Jungae that she's so hung up over that f-ing royalty check. She really expected to get both checks? This lady is just too much. And then she's always saying that Jung-hee never helps out with dinner anymore. Hello! You are always expecting her to entertain your precious grandchild and have meals done and clean the house?

Jung-ae wants too much . LOL...I remember that time when Jung-ae was like, "Oh no! What if my new daughter-in-law is worse than my ex daughter-in-law?!" As for when Eun-soo wanted an office, Jung-ae was like, "Why?! What's bothering him at home that he can't work here?" I was like, "WELL DUH! It's you!" My goodness!

She really drives me crazy. I can't stand her or her sister who blabs everything she knows about anyone to her coworkers.

Yeah, Sung-ae's another one that gets me too. I mean, she's a nice woman and smart too, but she is too open with her co-workers. Her co-workers know EVERYTHING about what's going on in her life . Like that one time when the cameras were zoomed in on Sung-ae having a phone conversation with Min-sup. The next thing you know once Sung-ae hangs up is all THREE of her co-workers and facing her wanting to know the dirt. What is up with that ?!

I think Jung-ae is a control freak. She resents feeling like a "kitchen-maid", as she told her husband. However, maybe she needs that royalty to pay bills since it seems that Eun-soo isn't paying room and board, and her husband is working as a parking valet. It seems that Jung-ae resents her life as a home-maker while her sister, Sung-ae, is a professional woman. In the past, Jung-ae mentioned that she took care of her husband's mother while he was looked upon as being the "good son". She has a point there. Yet, she seems to resent both her DIL's who aren't there to cook and clean so that she feesl important in the family.
Sung-ae is the bread-winner of that family since Min-sup never seems to bring in an income as an artist. It's wrong to expect Jee-hae to stay there, helping her father care for his mother.

Not to nitpick here (well, actually, yes, to nitpick) the only reason that Eunsoo got that last royalty payment was because he suckered his mom into affixing his seal onto 20,000 pieces of paper. To me, if she does that kind of work and was initially promised the royalty payment, she deserves it. Also, the royalty payment was given to Junghee so she would have a say where it went (so that the gift to his mom would be from both of them) and Eunsoo went and took it back.
Personally, I think that after mooching off his parents for a few years he should give all the proceeds from his first book to his parents and wait until he's really a successful writer to keep it for himself. The money from that book is tainted anyway since the story is about his sister's family, the members of which are now treating her like crap because of something that's not even her fault since Jinkook gave Eunsoo all the info and not Heesoo.

Maybe Eun-soo should give his mother the royalties from this book. Who knows, but Hee-soo might be forced back home with her twins. ESM might leave the apartment, maybe even Jin-soo who seems to find a real mother in Hee-soo. Jin-kook, I think, still has some interest in Young-lan.
It does seem that Eun-soo has been living off his parents for a long time especially having his son there, now his wife who goes with him every where. After all, if Eun-soo was on his own, he'd never have had the chance to investigate and write a book about his sister's in-laws.

I'm wondering myself about the apartment situation after ESM leaves. She did get the jewelry and the gold bars, but if I remember correctly, Jinkook got all of the money/buildings back from her. Somehow I think she's planning on leaving Jinsoo and having the family care for him using the money from his buildings - either that or putting him in an institution paid for out of that same money. I don't see why she would leave JS though because he would easily go out with her, though he might run away again.
However, I still doubt that Jinkook and Younglan will ever get back together - especially since she still loves Eunsoo and now ES seems to like her more, something which Junghee definitely doesn't like. That scene with them in the car when he turned around to go back to Younglan's was one of the tip-offs, along with the fact that Junghee didn't want him to go alone to his ex's house. Also, though Jinkook is a jerk, he seems to love Heesoo and we haven't learned anything about a prior attachment between him and Younglan, so I think they're just friends.

i think that the writers have such good material but they just dont know what to do with it. why not turn eun-soo younglan and jung hee into a lil' love triangle. younglan will finally realize that she no longer love's eun-soo and leave him heart broken. eun-soo returns to his wife to find out she left him too.
or hee-soo realizing that she jumped head first into a marriage with a guy she barley knows and leaves taking her kids with her. jin kook and younglan starts a romance but never marries.
and they should just kill DD and ESM off! jin-soo turns out to really be mr. parks son who gets outta jail to take care of him.

I kinda like the little faux love triangle that they have going on now with Eunsoo, Younglan and Junghee. It's possible that they may be flirting with one another but it's not necessarily true. But Junghee (and Eunsoo's family) is still jealous and assuming that it's happening.
Maybe this'll be one of those situations where everyone tells Eunsoo and Younglan that they're flirting and that she wants ES and JH to get divorced so eventually they will start to believe the gossip and it will happen.

Maybe this'll be one of those situations where everyone tells Eunsoo and Younglan that they're flirting and that she wants ES and JH to get divorced so eventually they will start to believe the gossip and it will happen. I keep feeling like the writers are showing us how Young-lan is really a better match for Eun-soo than Jung-hee. There was something a week or so ago, I can't remember what it was, but it was something to do with the book. He had some idea (maybe it was about the title of the book), and both Jung-hee and Jung-ae gave these responses that were sort of like, "uh, um, I don't have any idea what you're talking about but whatever." And Young-lan gave him an intelligent response about the same thing. So if he's really going to turn into a writer--which requires some kind of intellectual stimulation, I would think--Jung-hee is just going to be kind of a hausfrau and caretaker of his child, and it's going to be hard for him to ever really love her deeply. Hmm. Maybe what's going on with Eun-soo is that he needs both of those women: Jung-hee to see to his domestic comfort (not that she'd be completely satisfied with just that role), and Young-lan to light a fire under him and be a partner to him in other ways--a sounding board, a muse, etc.
