More MoA ranting, just to get it all out of my system before giving it up*.
There is one thing that I find philosophically interesting in all this and that is the trumpian view of the truth. Everybody seems to believe that reality is something you can chose according to what is most convenient. Cha dad made a start on it with the ‘how do you expect me to believe that JW killed my son, that would be horrible’ at the beginning, but it keeps on coming: JW chose to believe his ‘delusions’ because he could not stomach the alternative, Prof Cha now decided (equally arbitrarily) that JW did kill his son and come up with the new narrative of him valiantly concealing the truth for the sake of the company because it best serves his ego; HJ chose to trust a seemingly crazy conman because the alternative would make her miserable. Finally, Dir.Park reinforces the point in his JW-must-be-crazy-otherwise-this-company-is-going-bust-and-I-lose-everything rant. They are pretty much all crazy and it was silly of me to expect logic in this story in the first place.**

Footnotes:

* includes ep10, I had insomnia and ended up watching it despite saying I wouldn’t.
** CH’s death set the tone of don’t-expect-things-to-make-sense tone from the beginning.The facts -as we know them- are that CH was discovered in the park dead, his body exsanguinated with no evidence of external wounds (btw reality check: I don’t think one can take prints from fabric so the fact that the police have proof that JW touched his neck is silly; also it’s unlikely that they can tell the time of death with less than an hour precision. Watch more CSI, people!). Now how exactly does daddy dearest and friends imagine this JW murder happened? I could see JW killing CH in a fit of rage, but the psychology of the crime does not fit at all. The corpse state would require him to clinically kill him by draining his blood; also to do so in the middle of a park without leaving any trace. That does not make any sense.
