I remembered the drama, "King of Dramas" for how the writer gets pressured!

It's normal. Whisper began fliming too late and it need more time to preparing.

Love Defendant but no! I think the pacing has been just right, but I know it's been a frustration for some. This isn't going to help.

I would be happy only if Ji Sung got some guyliner. Anything else cannot make it up for the mess they are going to create by extending the drama.

Since wifey's drama is up next, just picturing Ji Sung and LBY's kid becoming a kid actor, so say 3-4 years from now then have each with a drama on the 3 different big stations same days-and see who wins the ratings war he he! Blessed, talented family!

Honestly, I am not excited with the extension news....I felt the recent monday episode has already been draggy and truth is I am annoyed at how the plot went so far, as far as Minho and JH are concerned. I can basically see through what's gonna happen next. Nevertheless, glad PJW got his memory back... the only development that satisfies my viewing experience. I have completed the main puzzle. So now is only for PJW to get to his daughter and clear his name and put Minho to jail. I seriously think two more episodes will drag the already established story. It's either writers will add more hurdles towards PJW in his quests or add more fillers in the form of Minho and his craziness ploys to thwart PJW. Or a love line development between PJW and his lawyer, which I feel will be out of place and unnecessary. One sided love mayyyyybe...but not from PJW. That plot where writers put Yeon Hee as being indebted to Minho is so recycle material. I have seen that being used in other drama. I expect Yeon Hee to remain a character that would make her own wise decision and join PJW team cos she sincerely loves her dead husband and feel injustice towards what happened to him but they just have to ruin it with a mistress for Seon Ho and her life in a glass castle. Disappointed...big time...Might just drop this or continue watching after the series ends, jisung notwithstanding..... Let's see what happens on Tuesday ep.

Really don't care about the extension just give me more of ji sung

Expecting drawn out dragginess.... DONT DESTROY THE DRAMA.

I guess two more episodes of Ji Sung followed by Lee Bo Young isn't too bad, right? But OTOH I badly want to watch LBY's drama right now!

This drama is amazing. Extension or not, all I care about is that Ji Sung gets the grand Daesang this year after being so totally ripped off after Kill Me Heal Me, except for one at the MBC awards when they gave prizes to everyone. If he doesn't win for Defendant I will know the system is rigged for some kind of skewed favoritism. I mean, have ANY of us seen more spectacular acting in a k-drama than Ji Sung here? I think not.

I don't know if my heart can take 2 more episodes of the Defendant! LOL!

This show is very intense. I feel like we went from a series of lovely nice fluffy dramas (Weightlifting Fairy, Man Living in My House) to a series of really intense ones (Defendant, Missing). Good but intense!

There are a very few dramas where it is so much fun to watch particular characters that they can handle more than 16 episodes. But for most of the dramas, 16 eps is about right. More gets draggy.

Actually, I have been wondering about an extension because they've spent too much time in jail with Jungwoo trying to find a way out; that I was wondering if they would have time for Jungwoo to solve the case. So, in my opinion, I think it is good that they got an extension in case the write couldn't fit everything into the 6 episodes left over.
