* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Suzy departs from the story after her falling out with Jin and never appears again. There's no apologies or any follow up which is a shame because she, Jin and Wei almost had a ThreeAmigos thing going on and the story prioritized Jin and Wei's relationship with each other rather than to her.
