* Ji-won having a RippleEffectProofMemory makes sense and is not just for the plot. Her conversation with Hee-yeon about her drunken mistake shows that she's the kind of anxious person who remembers and internalizes even the little things, so it stands to reason that baseline Ji-won would have a good memory in the first place. Furthermore, while she gets a lot of things right, Jiwon is neither infallible nor all-knowing about the past timeline - her mistaken assessment of Ji-hyuk and Hee-yeon's relationship being a notable example.

* Many viewers reported being unable to take Min-hwan seriously (or even finding it hard to hate him), simultaneously because of his actor's comic role off ''Series/WelcomeToWaikiki'' and the ''Marry My Husband'' narrative going out of its way to make him look comically awkward, even when he's going through a HumiliationConga or sexually harassing Ji-won. These choices serves to highlights something that's TruthInTelevision: abusers who look and act like Min-hwan (and for that matter, like Su-min too, but the double-faced mean-girl archetype is more well-known) do exist. Shallow people on the outside of the relationships will only look at Min-hwan and see an endearingly dorky boyfriend to a frigid and bewildering woman, or Sumin as a long-suffering, sweet-natured, sacrificial best friend to someone who doesn't appreciate her enough. Ji-won and her true inner circle are able to get past appearances and expose the rotten core.

* Hee-yeon being unable to control her temper when Min-hwan and Su-min tag-team each other with mean-spirited comments about Ji-won's eating habits make more sense with the reveal that the younger woman is a BigEater who enjoys her food unreservedly.

* Su-min's dismissive characterization of Hee-yeon's grandfather as a seller of "unimportant" side dishes (''banchan''), when the old man is in fact the powerful Chairman of U&K Foods. The more formal Korean meals are, the more ''banchan'' there will be served, akin to European fine dining. Korean royal cuisine used a setting with 12 ''cheop''. It marks Su-min as nosy (for caring in the first place what a coworker's grandfather does for a living), and her immediately making a face when Hee-yeon's answer proved neither impressive nor salacious also says a great deal about her character.
