Comments

chloe Mar 03 2024 12:57 am this is the only kdrama i manage to finish all 3 season. it was a moment during pandemic. some of you who said it was overrated and the show was so-so didn’t understand. we watch it broadcasted, one/two episode weekly which develops suspension and the plot twist was kind of too much in season 3, (i’d say once logan was put in) but they managed to round the story up nicely till the end.

kay jay Jan 12 2024 10:16 am Overrated! After a few eps, find it idiotic and stressful. Exaggerated portrayal of the misfortunes {especially mom and daughter yuni and rona) made them look frustratingly dull, ilogical and stupid. Lots of despairing and stressful episodes.

can i marry suryeon please!!! Oct 25 2023 2:44 am I'm abt to rewatch it, it's been like a year since i watched it but it's still the best show i've ever watched lol. everything about it is amazeballs, the acting is so good and the plot is honestly amazing, the plot twists are cuhrazy fr and its nice and refreshing compared to the predictable romance kdramas that i usually watch. some characters you really hate *cough*joo dan-tae, ha eun-byeol, cheon seo-jin(don't come at me if u like them)*cough* and some characters you really love *cough* sim su-ryeon, joo seok-gyung, sim su-ryeon, ha yun-hee, sim su-ryeon, etc. *cough* definitely recommend 100% anyone who dislikes it is a bit strange, but yk, that's just my opinion.

ps. if ur gonna watch this, prepare to cry and gasp a lot <33

Happy vibes only Oct 09 2023 2:03 pm This is the only Kdrama with three seasons and retaining same cast right…wow..that is something big of an achievement..I never seen any other Kdrama with three seasons in a broadcast channel. Netflix has such shows like money heist but for a Kdrama to achieve this feat is something special.

Seok Hoon and Ro Na - miss you guys.

MakjangEra Oct 02 2023 10:19 pm I originally watched this for background noise bec makjang dramas aren’t really my thing but jokes on me, this one was addictive. S/o to ha eun byeol she looks so unhinged w her eyes going all crazy like that

Deborah Jul 04 2023 11:41 am A friend referred me to this movie saying I should watch it, and truly it was nice I really enjoyed it

RieN Jun 23 2023 11:14 am Definitely pretty overrated. At least for me, I'll give it 7/10 despite all the people calling it amazing or jaw dropping. The characters development feels empty, the betrayals, deaths and plot twist was barely necessary—it's just so cliche to bring back a dead character just because they died unnecessarily.. just dont kill them, problem solved. The first season and around the beginning was great, I found the first death to be necessary and acceptable for the whole story unlike other's deaths. I think it's just so forced, since per said by the actors and actresses, they don't share the same script (they don't know each other's secret scenes—like when yoon hee was at the first party (where and when first death took place/time), most of them didn't know what she filmed). So yes, even the actresses and actors was combining their scripts trying to figure Who is the Killer—they had no idea too ? long story short, the story felt forced and pretty much empty. Dropped at S3E3. This has so many potentials, it's a good story as A Whole but a bad execution of it.

alinelu Jun 19 2023 7:10 pm Lol at the person saying that Youn hee basically has a good heart. A person with a good heart will never kill someone just because she wants the best for her kid. A person with a good heart will break down and apologize and surrender themselves to the police cause of the guilt they would’ve felt. Especially after being confronted face to face with Seola mother. She deliberately tried to get rid of the evidence once her memory came back about that night. And so scared she’s gonna go to prison she rather had SR get kidnapped by JDT and she even asked everyone who could to help her get rid of SR and to take her far far away. Not until she was being tortured and only because she cared of her own well being (wanted to live etc) that she admitted she killed that kid. People with good hearts don’t do these things. Don’t kid urself. No excuses whatsoever to people killing other people. Just because you’re feeling sorry for her because of her tragic life how can u think this is a person with a basically good heart. She got what she deserved my only thing is she should’ve gotten the karma right after the first season.

FurtiveFan Apr 20 2023 3:07 pm I'm not a fan of melodrama or soaps, so I watched reluctantly because it was supposed to be so good... and guess what, it "kind of" is — but only if you watch it understanding it's an over-the-top spoof of melodramas (kind of what Saturday Night Live or Carol Burnett would do). I mean, half the character's have eyes practically popping out of their heads in every episode -- especially the crazy daughter of the just-as-crazy school director. And they're all really "antagonists" — I don't think anyone's the hero here. It made me laugh out loud. And, keep watching. If I took this as a serious drama, I'd be trashing it for over acting, child-like script writing, and unrealistic plotlines. I mean, even if you think like a drama where everyone is "nasty" (in progressively increasing ways... nastier in each episode), this drama basically portrays that to the point where it's so funny... (I mean, I've seen most of these actors in other roles, and they don't "ham it up" like they do here, so I'm fairly sure that was on purpose -- right? Right? I hope that was the intention. That's how I took it anyway. It was so ridiculous it was brilliant. I still don't like soaps or melodrama — but this one is really a spoof of all that... A little too much screaming, though. I mean, once in awhile, they need to take a pill and calm down...

take this as a warning Apr 02 2023 3:07 am before you watch this drama I will say this drama is amazing but I urge you not to watch season 3 as from that point onwards is where this drama just falls completely… it becomes so extremely illogical and unserious that it was hard to keep watching but I felt I had to since I’d enjoyed the first two seasons so much and dedicated a lot of time towards waiting for the season to be released. I will say some plot points and endings for some of the characters were nice and unique (atleast in my opinion) but other than that if you can please save yourself the disappointment and skip out on s3. ( Spoiler ) I just don’t get how dantae was alive (I believe he was the homeless man who seokkyung was serving in the restaurant) even after all that??like just so stupid

Marathon24 Oct 21 2022 8:48 am The acting all of the casts was great, even the teenager casts were doing a great job. The villains did a great job of being super annoying. The plot was sometimes ridiculous, with unrealistic plot twists. But overall it's fun to watch. Just skip the boring part if it's too long. I like the friendship between SSR amd OYH. My only regret of the plot were why did OYH has to become MSA's killer and why OYH has to die in the 3rd season. I like her character though, because she is smart and tricky, but basically had a good heart.

Aud Aug 18 2022 3:48 am I don’t understand why people are hating on this drama. In my opinion, this drama is everything. Literally sugar, spice and everything nice ??. It’s one of the best I’ve ever watched. Yes, its fantasy but the story line is great. So many plot twists which makes it even more interesting

KST Aug 15 2022 11:29 pm I finished watching the season 1.The acting is really amazing but the plot is not realistic. It was really over dramatic drama. I hope Oh yoon hee is innocencnt. Finally all characters became worst. I was really like the character oh yoon hee. Hope she will become good in the other seasons!!!❤️

KST Aug 01 2022 11:59 pm I am still at the episode 1..its amazing to see the overacting nature of the drama!

Uckezzy Jul 21 2022 11:14 pm Started watching this and I can say that this dope. So many twist and I'm loving it.

Desmond Riddler Jul 02 2022 6:26 am I have just finished Watching the last part .and I think it is like a Bowl of Noodles. each strand is an actor and it gets mixed up with all the Spices to make one great series .all who have worked on the show did a great job .sets and planning stunts and effects were great .and the story mixed up .loved all of it. I always think that Acting which ever part if done right .makes you want the villain to get his just Punishment and the Hero's win . it did that in lots of ways . thank you all stay safe and well . 5 stars all the way .

Thee Igneous One Jun 27 2022 6:24 am Very good - in parts, with some excellent acting. But too long and the plot was unecessarily convoluted (and violent) throughout.

Jio Dan Tee Jun 10 2022 12:14 pm The drama is not so great. I watched it because I didn’t have anything else to watch. The acting is all good and but loads of stretched twists and unbelievable scenarios even for a modern day drama like no CCTV in such prestigious schools or fancy apartments to record ill doing, abuse and murder.

The plot can lead to kids emulating the rude kids and murderers in the show.

Many times, I was frustrated with the silly twists and zero regard for law and almost gave up watching but like I wrote, I had nothing else to watch so I watched till the end and I don’t miss it at all. I am glad it’s over. This drama might lead to setting wrong precedence for a lot of weak minded people with no respect for people or the law.

Tam Jun 06 2022 7:41 pm They lost me in Season 3, they crossed the line to too dramatic. Logan's brother - what is he supposed to be - the Korean Post Malone? No, that was my last straw. They should have wrapped it up in Season 2.

Chika Jun 05 2022 9:19 pm I really enjoyed this drama, despite it being overly dramatic and highly unrealistic at times. I really enjoyed the acting. A lot of great talent in this. Props to the villains of this drama, Joo Dantae and Cheon Seojin for outstanding performances. I've never quite found my blood boiling quite as much for any other villains since the first time I started watching K-dramas.

I especially loved the character development for Jeni and her mother. From being people who looked down their noses at people who didn't have the same status to doing a complete 180 and supporting Bae Rona even during her darkest hours.

I will truly miss the time I spent anticipating each episode of this drama. So much drama, so much intrigue. It will certainly be a drama that will remain in my memory for a long time.

Tsundere Mar 21 2022 9:55 pm Seriously, I haven't missed it from season 1 to season 3, the story has a nice twist. All the casts I want, they will be good to act. They are great from antagonist to protagonist. Very impressive story and acting. Where is Kim young Dae now, he is oppah, good looking.

Tee Mar 15 2022 4:06 pm Like, even starting form the theme soundtrack, and other ost... The series always giving me goosebumps, but even though I loved every Character, I really dislike how oh yoon hee and her daughter bae Rona was portrayed, it was devastating and annoying even to the last of oh yoon hee... I really loved Logan Lee, he was an amazing character, and also joo seok seon... Big thumbs up to all Penthouse: War in Life casts and crew... Love you all from Nigeria

Noni Feb 06 2022 9:18 pm I really don’t get the hype. Really, I don’t. It was somewhat entertaining up to a point but then the ridiculousness got even more ridiculous by episode 14. The cliff hanger at the end of episode 16 killed it for me. I only finished watching all the episodes because I’d already invested 16+ hours.

This drama is dumb and annoying.

Graham Feb 01 2022 5:36 am Interesting story, but it got a bit ridiculous for me when the poor mom character, who has been abducted, threatened with death and repeatedly humiliated, decides to move into the building where her enemies live, and tries to make friends with them! And her daughter invites the kids, who bully her to the point where she nearly dies falling off a mezzanine, over to her apartment for snacks. I kept thinking, why would anyone go within 100 miles of these sociopathic monsters, let alone move into their high rise luxury lair?

J Jan 22 2022 11:12 am I just reached episode 21. I agree with the comments here.. I really thought the show was over top and too unrealistic ? but I had faith in the writer that it’ll get better in the next episodes and given how much hype it was given but no.. I’m faced with disappointment reaching episode 21 :/ I don’t know why this was so popular, at least around me it was. (sigh)*

seulgi Jan 21 2022 8:10 am 4 episodes in and I just cannot believe that people actually liked this show. The writing and plotline is overly idiotic and it feels like it was written by a teenager with problems on Wattpad. It felt as if the world of the kdrama had no rules and every person on it was purely stupid. Atop of the over the top acting, over the top script, and just over the top stupidity it was So Annoying. This is the first kdrama I watched that really had my blood boiling in a bad way. Yes it was thrilling, yes the secrets and twists may keep you watching but at what expense?

There are much more worthy kdramas with the same plot with much logical writing and much better acting (I’m looking at Sky Castle, yes) that will get your blood boiling for the right reasons.

I don’t really write reviews but this show is just so stupid and illogical that I couldn’t stop myself. Really a writing and perhaps directing fault, either way, not worth the annoyance I felt while watching it.

Suzie Jan 20 2022 6:07 am This drama really kept the pace up and the number of murderous twists and family secrets and lies was almost too much, but it was very thrilling. Do something about the fake blood and burn scars, other dramas have managed that much better. Many standout performances. Of course he 3 lead women were all great but Kim So Yeon is just amazing and stood out. Lee Ji Ah is unbelievably beautiful and went well with Logan Lee who cleverly acted 2 parts, as did Lee Ji Ah. A talented couple. Joo Dan Tae pretty good too, and Hera Club. So many good supporting roles. Of the young ones, Choi Ye Bin will be a star one day, twins good too. Singing looked very fake - a tip, get the actor to really sing, but don’t use their voice, then dub on the singing. It will look more realistic that way. Don’t really like the tunnel into the afterlife - too cliche. Oh yes, Dr Ha was great, shame he had to die. All the good ones died, found that hard to take. Excellent show, super exciting. Well done Netflix for a good choice.

Cd Jan 06 2022 6:42 am 4 episodes only and that's it...bit idiotic characters

Rezell Jan 04 2022 1:33 am Watched few episodes..its thrilling to watch but on the other hand find the characters very disturbing especially how teens treating each other.. all about abusive of power, betrayal, immorality.. Giving also bad impression of the society. Nevertheless!

Lee Jan 02 2022 2:29 am I watched Penthouse first before watching Returned. Found out its the same troublemakerssssss

Even Bong Tae-Gyu's character has affair with Yoon Joo-Hee's character in Returned. Now in Penthouse they are husband and wife. haha!!

Kyn Dec 31 2021 6:26 am I hope this drama have season 4 bae lona and seokhoon they get married then they have a child .. Then many years coming their children are big then jenny as a teacher to lona's child then while oh Yoon hee will live far away while erase her memory She doesn't know bae lona they will meet again while jenny is pregnant with minguk .. That's my idea .. Sorry I just imagine that .. Keep fighting always..

Shagun Oct 31 2021 5:43 am One of the best k drama I have watched till now. The plot is amazing, each episodes have a twist and the acting is just on another level. A must watch drama if you are interested in mystery and murder. The only thing I would like to say is that the ending could have been better else the drama is one of the best among other high rated series.

rosee Sep 16 2021 7:59 pm I've finished watching this show recently and I can say it took to long the writer added more storylines that weren't necessary at all I mean after season 1 ended season 2 was more than enough to finish the story the bad guys got out away with what they did at first then they went to prison it was great to finally see the punished but why get them out and repeat the plot just again the ending was somehow reasonable

Mhay Sep 15 2021 7:51 pm I've been watching this drama while looking for spoilers and I must say the thrill is the same. This is such a brilliant drama that will carry your emotions into it. You can't help being affected with each scenes. This is so good you'll probably finish watching it at 3 days utmost!

PrettyToeti Sep 12 2021 8:27 pm Just watch it, enjoy all the twists. Curse the characters if you want to. No need to overthink about it?

Anonymous Sep 06 2021 6:55 am Great story,, waiting for seaon 3 episodes,,, Twisted on a higher level,

Deema Sep 01 2021 4:15 pm Nice series

Vera Aug 29 2021 1:47 am This show is so bad that you'll be embarrassed to tell anyone that you're seeing it, but it's fun to watch when you want something simple and funny.

The downside of the show is that it's immoral (they try to make murderers likeable and no one is punished, like even when they get a life sentence in jail they're out of prison again in the next episode), not the best acting (I just skip some of the worst parts because it's too cringy), ridiculous plots (twice have two different characters died, only for their identical twin to show up). But if you can get past these bad parts, it's pretty fun.

Faeth el ssebowa Aug 26 2021 3:29 am its really thrilling l love it

Bora Aug 21 2021 6:53 am I’ve forced myself through the first 4 episodes of Penthouse and I am so confused as to why it’s so popular. This is by far the dumbest most over acted drama I have ever watched. If you have a brain it will be hard to watch.

Sangwoo Aug 09 2021 2:39 am The actors are so likeable but at the same time, I garauntee that almost every character will make your blood boil at some point.

The plot is slightly repetitive, but for some reason, it always sucks you back in. The storyline in all seasons are interesting and have many different twists, but it never gets too confusing.

Please note that this part has a spoiler! The only issue I would have with this drama is the fact that everybody seems to have a secret sibling, which gets uneccassary and unrealistic overtime.

mary Aug 04 2021 1:00 pm Whatever everybody says for me this is one of the best dramas ever.

z Jul 06 2021 11:49 am whoever said this is realistic is lying lmao.. i binge watched this in 2 days (each episode was about 1 hr 15 mins.. wtf) and its rly not tht great. the murderer is obvious in about episode 5.. i feel this show couldve been finished in 16 episodes or less, the plot dragged on and on...

the most likable character, seol ah, dies rly tragically and i hate how the writers made the rich people covering up her murder humorous.. just felt rly distasteful.

if you want to watch a show where rich people torture and kill poor people, while getting away with their crimes and the poor people suffer the most, i recommend it for you. im surprised bae rona is one of the most disliked characters by the audience, since she alongside her mother suffer the most as alive characters. i can understand her tantrums at home since she gets tortured everyday at school alongside the headmaster trying her best to kick her out.

spoiler/ also wtf did this show have hella pretty little liars vibes.. from the anonymous texts from the girl who died threatening to reveal the secrets to the random twist of kidnapping and encaging the parents and the kids to get more secrets (that bus fire scene).. i mean if ur gonna go that far, u shouldve made seol ah, the most likable character, somehow survive. maybe seol ah has an evil twin or someone got plastic surgery to look like and pose as seol ah? this show is so overdramatic and nonsensical, that im sure you couldve put that plot line in. if anything, i'd be happy that the most likable and kind character is alive to give the rich people revenge. but alas the rich people get away w their crimes and make a joke out of seol ah's torture and death..

Beck Jul 04 2021 1:45 am The twist is on other level.

it's fine Jul 02 2021 8:17 pm i don't even like this, but i still find myself wanting to watch more and more for some reason?? it's just a bunch of plot twists in a nutshell. it's dramatic. i don't recommend binging this one. it's going to get tiring, so i would watch it every other day. but the cast are great actors, so i'll give that to them.

Fey101 Jul 02 2021 10:44 am I enjoyed watching S1 ..the twisting events in the story makes you want to watch more. If you are into thriller, suspense, melodrama, revenge,crime K-Dramas...I definitely recommend this one

Daniels Jul 01 2021 4:36 am It's not everyday you see a kdrama with superb cast members. My mixed feelings for this series is why I really think it's deserving of every award it can get. The actors are really good and express themselves really well and{ Ha eun byeol} did well playing a depressed teenage girl with angst and I relate to her character very well which is why I scream Penthouse To The Moon. I'll keep watching till everyone dies cus I feel it won't have a satisfying end.

Deeka Jun 26 2021 7:51 am I think this drama is so overhyped and overrated. I watched a couple of episodes because I’d heard that it was supposed to be good but I couldn’t find anything worth watching.

There were too many exaggerated elements that made it too exhausting to watch. From the over the top, cringeworthy acting to the ridiculous plot developments, it just seemed to get worse and worse as it went on. None of the characters were likeable at all (except maybe Suryeon) and even the “good” ones were just hypocrites and resorted to the same dirty tactics that they would shame the bad guys for.

All I wanna say is that there are sooo many other kdramas worth watching that don’t get enough attention. Don’t waste your time on this...

Taxman Jun 22 2021 6:09 pm Just finished watching. It was over the top in the story line. The story was intriguing but too many characters to hate by the end. I can’t think of one main character that shouldn’t be in prison at the end. Even all the kids should be in some type of reform school.

Me Jun 17 2021 12:19 pm I didn’t finish it because it was making me so angry ?. The story was quite interesting as well as the characters but I didn’t I’m even want to watch a mother episode because of how upset it made me. I don’t rate this for that reason. If you like shows like that then go ahead I guess.

Michele Jun 13 2021 2:30 pm This drama is so ridiculously over the top. I don't know why I'm still watching it.

Winnie Jun 12 2021 9:52 am This is my favourite kdrama!! It will make you feel bored if you watched the other kdrama after watching penthouse lol! So it will be make you obsess with penthouse!!

>Zero Jun 11 2021 8:35 pm Ughhhhh I really hate Park Eun-Seok's role and that means he did his acting sooooooo good :)

Wendi Jun 10 2021 4:41 am i reaally love the cast here and the female characters in this drama are on FIRE~

Helen Jun 01 2021 12:31 pm I love this trending movie,fun to watch,

sleep May 27 2021 3:14 am soyeon so deserved that baeksang (korean oscar) for best actress, her acting was just way too good

Oluwatobi May 13 2021 1:01 pm I am so much in love with this korean series. Cant wait to see the season 3 cause i am dying to know what joo dan tee did to Jenny's father. Besides pls dont tell me Logan lee has died ooo cause it wont be funny. Assemblyman Lee's role must also continue cause he is a strong comical relief from all the tension build up while watching. Kudos to the writter , the director and the casts. You guys are doing a great Job.

Love May 12 2021 7:56 pm i agree with what you said

@carotsel1

Thoughts on S1 May 12 2021 6:32 pm OK.....so finished S1...

The storyline is super addictive because of the adrenaline you get when watching this show. However, there are some parts in the writing that I really do dislike

1. Glorifying the villains: I feel like this show tries to justify the bullying and all the evils deeds while giving no character development or accentuating the negative characteristics of the protagonists to elongate the show

2. Imbalance: there is a huge imbalance between the characters and among the children. It is always a 1 vs 5 at least.

3. Singing: I felt like the most natural was by far Bae Rona. For some other kids, it was quite unrealistic and funny.

4. Acting: I liked most actors and actresses' interpretation of their characters. I would say that Bae Rona is the one that impressed me to most among the kids. The fact that I hated her so much and wanted to slap her until I cried for her during that last episode speaks a lot about the actress itself. As for the adults, I LOVED the contrast between the acting of Suryeon and Seojin!

roma May 04 2021 9:45 am I love it so much. I've seen the kdrama on instagram a lot (but it was only the scenes where the kids were involved), I thought it was just about high school bullies and romance (so I had no plan on watching it lol) but it was the other way around. I'm on the last episode of season 1 and I'm so excited to watch season 2!! I've been crying for a whole ass 20 minutes because of Ro Na and her mom.. +Su Ryeon's death

Ana? May 02 2021 12:58 pm Wow.....I loveeeeeeeeeee this drama. It's one of the best kdrama I've ever watched,full of suspense,crime which are the things I love in movies.

Let's applaud the writer and director of this drama,they really done well. Thanks for this wonderful movie,I hope you do well in the coming season.

 And to the casts,you were all awesome,you played your roles well.

Min hyeok's father was the funniest in the movie acting weird and like an idiot...it was funny though... I like the way Oh Yoon hee turned herself in,she had to take punishment for her crime. Joo Dan Tae is a devil on his own,he must have been the one who sent someone to plant a bomb near Logan Lee.

 I just hope Logan Lee doesn't die cause he was about to propose to Su Ryeon..oh noo...he mustn't dieee......................
Hmmmmmm.....we are yet to know what Dan Tae did to Jenny's dad,thank God he's out now,so we would soon find out.
   But why did Eun Byeol's maid wanted to take her with her?.

Well this drama is just so wonderful and you can't just afford to miss it, it's not an over statement, it's just what it is.....

Konaa Apr 26 2021 7:25 am I can't find the guy on the background...do you know who he is? The penthouse season 1

                           Episode 10
                            25:48 minutes

Lyra Apr 25 2021 11:30 pm Classic makjang drama. Everything too over the top and ridiculously disgusting with not a single decent character. Except SSR. So many events exaggerated and plot holes everywhere. The acting for some characters also too over the top. I decided to give this drama a try since many are saying this is the best drama with a lot of plot twists... IMO this series is overrated and overhyped, not as good as many tried to portray it to be.

Janella Salvador Apr 25 2021 7:16 pm Good news for the Pinoys as the high-rating South Korean drama 'The Penthouse' is coming to Philippine television.

carotsel1 Apr 24 2021 11:23 am A bunch of psychos in one drama. The kids are disgusting for their values but the parents are more terrible for tolerating their kids. This is a waste of time

MITCHELLE EGBUNIWE Apr 21 2021 4:04 am i loveee every episode of this drama,i literally made sure all my friends watched it. i loved yoo jenny mom,she shows the length parents will go for thier children. min hyuk dad is by far the best character he serious but also funny. i really hope logan lee dosent die,

Serena Apr 20 2021 10:17 pm I loved this drama despite a lot of things not making sense. I will say though that most of the characters were not that likeable. Ro Na was Terrible. Eun Byeol was living through a lot of trauma and mentally unstable which Ro Na saw and knew. She was being savagely mentally abused by her mother. Yet Ro Na kept antagonizing her. When in reality the person that kept forcing Eun Byeol to even do all this competing was her mother. So to me Ro Na came across like a huge bully for attacking a mentally unstable girl who was forced to live out some stupid rivalry of her mother.

I actually felt the most sorry for Eun Byeol and the Twins those kids were being mentally and physically abused. It's not shocking that when they went to school they took their frustrations out on others. They were young kids who needed Help.

Marissa Sky Apr 20 2021 1:52 am It was so sad knowing Min Seol-A died with the hands of Oh Yoon Hi... And at the last part of Season one was a terrible sadness i felt when the supposed to be main character Su-Ryeon died. I hope the story twist like...it goes like this.... Was found out the truth about baby switchig, instead, Su- Ryeon's real daughter was Bae Rona. And the daughter of Oh Yoon-Hi was the one she throw away its Min Seol-Ah. Because of dispair of what she did she surrender herself to the police. And the other two killers; Dan-Tae and Seon-Jin was also put to jail as they kill those people in the scene. Sad but justifiable. Being Bae-Rona the inherritance of The Hera Palace.

Park Su Ryeon Apr 15 2021 3:08 am I loved this drama. The plot, characters everything is awesome. Tbh the actors and their acting is so great. I would recommend everyone to just have fun while watching it. It does get sad sometimes but that is okay. I'm really excited to watch season 3!!

-drama Apr 13 2021 4:28 am @makjang i agree with you about dan tae being the real killer

boring Apr 12 2021 7:05 pm Logan Lee is boring and annoying

Nami Apr 12 2021 3:30 pm SPOILER The first season was amazing. I was ready to say that this is one of the best dramas I ever watched but episode 21 and season 2 ruined everything. Su Ryeon was playing them all so well I was ready for big, beautiful revenge. I was cheering her and I really love her character. Everything went downhill since they made Oh Yoon Hee the killer of Seol Ah. They should go with Joo Dan Tae being the killer so we could continue to rightfully hate him. Plot twist with death of Su Ryeon was unnecessarily. The season should've ended with Su Ryeon going to USA with Logan. Also the whole season is about searching the killer of Seol Ah to punish him. Logan was ready to kill everyone Su Jin, Dan Tae anyone who could be the killer but when he found out it was Yoon Hee he suddenly felt sorry for her. Like if it was Su Jin he would probably kill her immediately but he and Su Ryeon let Yoon Hee to live. Big mistake. Oh Yoon Hee is two faced and a hipocrite. Season 2 is so boring and they are trying to make Oh Yoon Hee the main character. Also season 2 is all about bullying in school. Very disappointing. I hope they will make season 3 much better. With Logan and Su Ryeon as main characters.

Posie Apr 11 2021 11:00 am Tbh I hate all the kids in this drama, like wtf is wrong with them? They're all problematic just like their parents. I mean why does Bae RoNa like that? She can't appreciate her mom and hard headed. Why does SeokHoon have feelings for RoNa when at the first place he bullied Min seol ah? SeokKyung is such a bich. Jenny is idk kinda hate her at first not in the middle but I also hate her at the end. Min hyuk, I hate him at the first until the last place. Eun byeol is irritating and mean. They are all spoiled brat thats why they're parents did those things. They all started the war but can't handle the consequences. The only character I love is Min Seol Ah, poor kid, she has potential than those kids. I just wish she was not dead at that drama coz I know she'll sweep those mfs.

Fact Apr 11 2021 10:31 am You know what? I really love this drama but the thing is it's too much to watch if they have to add another season. They should've ended Shim Seo Ryeon happy with Logan Lee. Bish I can't stand to see her suffer, its so tiring, let her breath gawd. Plus, why the hell the world is so kind to Joo Dan Tae in that drama?. I know it's not the end but whatever, I don't know if I can watch another season of it since it gave me headache at the end. But not gonna lie, the actors and actresses are the best, I love how they act naturally.

NANA Apr 11 2021 12:10 am As an empath, I 100% do not recommend this drama to other empaths. There's nothing to like. If this drama is realistic in the slightest, at the end the rich will never truly be punished. I don't know how anyone can sit through this knowing there is just an onslaught of evil and it doesn't get better. The scene where they were hiding the body was particularly the worst for me. No matter how twisted a person is, if you're not a killer then there is no way you wont get the slightest bit affected by a person's death, much less handle a dead body with no remorse at all. The lack of remorse was baffling and the choice of background music and the director's terrible attempt in dropping comedic relief in those scenes was terrible. As an avid watcher of Korean dramas for about 10 years now, I really have never watched a drama that was this sickening. I mean there is barely anyone at all to root for. I have no idea how this drama is so popular. Maybe it's telling of humanity.

Daisy Apr 09 2021 10:51 am The thing about this drama is they open one issue and then it does not get satisfyingly- solved and then they open another issue — until there are so many issues that weren’t properly addressed by the storyline. It tried to cover so many areas and then just goes round and round

daisy Apr 08 2021 7:58 pm This drama is tiring to watch. I am just on Season 1 and the story just keeps circling back and forth. Thinking that there are many seasons more....... ugh. Somehow predictable also because of Sky Castle's storyline.

Selvia LFP Apr 04 2021 11:43 pm I'm not a fan of K-Drama . But this Drama is absolutely my type hehe. I love the plot and the casts. The first K-Drama i watch and i fall in love with. i enjoyed it so much..

Bae rona Apr 01 2021 7:54 am Ha Eubyeol deserves what she has been given because she tried to kill Bae rona by slicing her through the neck with the award trying to be just like her mother but good thing Bae Rona is still alive.

Ha Eunbyeol Mar 29 2021 8:39 pm This drama deserved their ratings. You wont get bored in any episode because they always make the viewers head boil!! I am so mad at this drama because it’s soooo good. It’s not a typical drama where you ship characters then real love happens blahblah but it’s a drama where you get trust issues and learn and get lessons in life realizations.. And I think that is brilliant. It happens in real life. Anyone can betray you especially if it’s for the family and regret in the end because that is how life goes. Everyone has their own sins and no one is perfect after all. Looking forward to another masterpiece. Good job to the creator and all the actors and staff.

Elm tom Mar 29 2021 2:50 pm Now, now, everyone is entitled to their own opinion about this drama so I’ll say mine. It’s absolutely amazing and definitely worth watching. I enjoyed every single episode. It was so good to the point that it portrayed humans the way we really are( regarding Oh Yoon Hee). She was the character that represented light and all but her true self was revealed as someone who could do anything for her survival. And that is the human nature! And as for Kim seo Yeon Wow! Wow! Just wow! Anyone that hated her during the series really mean they love her. It means she was able to portray her character really well! She was absolutely amazing as a villain struggling to survive the way she was raised to see the world. I really hope these comments do not discourage people from watching this drama. It has a lot of depth to it and it is absolutely wait the watching. I’m a huge fan of all the characters!! Even Min Yuk’s father? They were all evil , funny a**h*les Amazing drama!!!!!!! DAEBAK!!!

Rich Mar 28 2021 9:32 pm my top 1 kdrama this year 2021. i love the casts & the story so much! the actors really kill their roles! keep it up. hoping for more season!?

name (required) Mar 23 2021 8:33 pm joo seokhoon is cute and all but do you guys even realize that he is no different than seokkyung or eunbyeol... he left min seol ah in a van that was caught on fire, soaked with alcohol..... i don't care if he tried to save her, he still listened to his sister at the end of the day and risked letting min seol ah burn to death. yes he is cool and good looking but i hope you guys dont forget that he was just like the rest of the hera palace kids at the end of the day.

Makjang Mar 21 2021 10:07 pm Idts yoo chul is the father of rona. She's just blabbering because yoon her wants to torment him after all the kindness and affection rona done. She's just angry because if its real, she will show some dna test but the paper inside is their divorce agreement like wtf. And I think, dan tae is the real killer of min seol a he's the villain among the rest.

Kdramaviewer Mar 21 2021 1:53 am This drama is makjang to the max. Penthouse held much promise at the beginning with its thrills and spills, but mid way through Season 2, one can't help but feel a little jaded and somewhat tired of the convoluted plot and overall premise. Almost everything is so intense, extreme and exaggerated, from the storyline to the acting, the props to the sets. Imagine dragon-shaped faucets in a restaurant washroom, or a full buffet spread right in a shooting gallery. A giant-sized TV screen that covers the whole living room wall. Opulence working overtime. Or the villains' frequent crazed outbursts where they would inevitably sweep things off desk/table tops in a fit of rage. The screaming and gnashing of teeth when they are frustrated in almost every episode. Granted, the actors are highly-skilled but their over-acting gets in the way of their credibility and likeability. The scene where one of them swallowed a cellphone SIM/storage card to hide evidence could almost be the straw that broke the camel's back for some viewers. Apparently, restraint is not in the vocabulary of the producers, script writers or director. I used to dread missing any new episode but not anymore. Indeed, it's quite exhausting trying to keep up with this overdone, overblown drama.

dramahoe Mar 19 2021 5:55 pm Ok so i keep seeing comments hating on shim su ryeon because she is “selfish” or whatever and doesn’t care about seok hoon and seok kyung. Yall do realize that she had no idea wtf was going on like she literally was blinded by her husbands facade (like in the beginning of the series). She literally thought about them as her own children and it was them who thought she didn’t care even though she didn’t know. I think the most important thing that y’all are forgetting is that Min Seol A was literally bullied and harassed by seok hoon and seok kyung like obviously she’s gonna feel conflicted? Like they harassed her daughter and almost killed her?!?! Also, every time Logan lee asked her to come to the US she literally declined because of seok hoon and seok kyung! Also she has hye in to care for too like i mean cmon. Arguably, Shim su Ryeon is the best character Periodt. Ngl I lowkey didn’t like her in the beginning bc of how naive and oblivious she was to everything going on but i think she ended up becoming the smartest out of everyone and had the best clap backs out of everyone. Like I’ve never seen a female lead does everything the right way. Oh Yoon Hee is really the character that i want to just ugh she’s literally so annoying. Like B*tch U Literally Killed Min Seol A and became rich bc of shim su ryeon but now ur too pussy to turn yourself in?? After everything?? And they ruined the Seok Hoon and Bae Rona ship which sucked ngl. Also idk i lowkey get the hate against Logan lee but i honestly think that he had no idea about the whole transplant thing. Also Min Seol A was the one who didn’t want to take the money and I get why. His parents literally adopted her to save their son so ofc she wouldn’t want their dirty money. Now that Logan Lee is self made he can get revenge in his own way so i think he’s a good guy honestly. I’m still on episode 20 so idk what’s gonna happen but yeah. ALSO for the ppl who hate on this show and call it “sky castle but on steroids”. Guys this is a makjang so its literally supposed to have a plot twist every five mins and exaggerated drama Like Thats The Whole Point lmao!! There are a lot of parallels with sky castle esp like the whole “my kid need to go to Seol university” thing but i actually think that sky castle is stylistically a different show all together. Tbh i def like Sky Castle more than this drama in terms of acting and cinematography but i think that its a little hard to compare the two shows because of how different they are. Personally, Sky Castle felt like a more sarcastic play on real life families who are rich while penthouse felt like crazy rich people doing anything to increase their social status and wealth in the name of their kids. Depends on what ur into tbh but don’t hate on the drama without realizing what the genre is..

LoganLeeSeokHoonBestBoys Mar 18 2021 1:49 am When I started it, it had just aired so the ratings were not impressive, but as the drama continued I totally understood why it's successful. It's extremely addictive, the characters are all flawed, there is no 100% good person (maybe Min Seol A) so you just love/hate everyone. Acting is superb, the scenes are either hilarious af or intense af. The wealth and beauty is amazing, that penthouse wall TV duuuude. All the scenes with Ma Doo Ki are so funnyyyy. I hope Logan, Seok Hoon and Shim Su Ryeon (who is not dead, I do not accept this) prevail in the end. We all need Logan to be there for Joo Dan Tae's demise and throw some English one-liners like he did in the first season.

Yurihan Mar 16 2021 7:19 pm This one of the best drama ever my #1 drama of 2020 and 2021 I like the plot and i fall inlove for 3 main character Eugene Ji ah seyeon this is master piece ever made in korean drama

Me Mar 14 2021 7:32 am The plot and everything is really stupid. Off course the plot is really stupid full of plot holes, new character show up, no logic, off course there would be season 2 and 3, she is makjang writer, it is my fault that i expect something other than makjang and hope something smarter than this.

Ayi Mar 14 2021 3:13 am Another bad Korean drama. Doesnt make sense at all. Proof that ppl just love money regarding the quality. Sad.

May Mar 13 2021 10:18 am Yoon Hee as mother is rather stupid, selfish and useless. How can a mother kill someone innocent for the sake of her child. The girl is like her daughter age. A heartless person. Ro Nae has s also stupid. Upbringing problem. As if there is no other university and can go so extreme. Brainless for a so talented person. Rebelling is stupidity as she is so self-centred like her mom. Both mother and daughter are no different from Dan Tae, Seo Jin. All the rich kids are spoilt so as their parents with money but brainless. Is this what the scriptwriter is portraying the Korean elite? Where is the law and order? Police investigation? Seol A’s mom should know her daughter. She is rich. I pitied Eun Byeol and the twins. They are the victims. Can Korean speak rather than keep shouting when they talk? One thing I don’t understand is why Korean woman or girls always get drunk and can sleep anyone. Morally is this right? Can scriptwriter be more realistic and show the elegance of Korean girls an woman? Having said above, I enjoy watching most Korean dramas but not this drama. Even Youn stay is fantastic show. Especially Yun Jung. She speaks good English at her age.

Ppl Mar 13 2021 9:37 am Problem with this show is if you watch a scifi series you know that they try to make as much sense as possible in the decisions a person makes but this show even in episode 2 where Ro Na was caught by those 5 spoiled brats. An intelligent person would not aggravate the situation by insulting a person further when you are facing ppl who are rich and powerful and able to even cover up a murder.

Kiki Mar 07 2021 12:15 pm @ae and I agree with you. Well ... my desire as a viewer is something that can be taken beyond TV as something realistic, but not all programs need to be realistic. I think as the theme of the drama has been discussed for some time and continues to this day, I believe that people are used to realistic dramas and because of these other dramas they have seen and that is why they end up thinking that all dramas will follow in the same way. . Could it be more realistic? Yes, it could, but it is not an obligation. There are dramas for all tastes and we can all find something that really pleases us in a more personal way and watch and spend time with something we like.

Kiki Mar 07 2021 11:53 am @MiscellaneousPerson true I also realized this very disgusting. Many close their eyes

ae Mar 07 2021 7:43 am if you don't like then don't watch it. everyone has different taste. and many of us appreciate this but not the evil characters. also, this is a drama, everything is not required to be realistic.

Diandra Mar 07 2021 6:20 am I don't understand what makes this drama so popular. Just another drama where people hurting and hating each other for money and higher society aka the story and the ending will be predictable, I'm really hate this type of drama and i don't know i even coming here,

Lizzy Mar 06 2021 9:32 pm @Miscellaneous Person Eh? They didn’t portray any of that sort in this show. All criminals were korean? What you mean.

Also I really don’t like Oh Yoon Hee, what the hell..

Aisha Mar 05 2021 6:12 pm Sorry momo but it's from sbs all along

Mo.mo Mar 03 2021 6:31 pm For me, its different between Penthouse and Sky Castle because genre of sky castle sarcasm for korean people that want their children on the SKY university. While Penthouse, its drama, its not sarcasm which means the plot might be unbelievable and more suspense. Thats why we couldn't make a comparence between penthouse and sky castle

Lea Mar 03 2021 4:55 pm imagine sky castle but ten times more intense, that is penthouse

Ally Mar 01 2021 9:48 am I’m shocked. I thought Minhyuk had feelings for Jenny

Arif Se. Mar 01 2021 7:55 am I thought it's only me who dislike this drama.. I wonder why does many people loves to watch this drama until this drama got amazing ratings. Me myself, i don't like bullying dramas. I don't like story about arrogant and ambitious people. And i feel like i am watching another Sky castle drama in higher level. It makes me feel suffocated. But, i want to watch the evils gets punishment.

Miss Latte Mar 01 2021 5:55 am For me, This is just another Makjang drama that combine Sky Castle, return and temptation of wife. Watch this because it all over the media and I’m so curious after seeing the actors line up. All actors are amazing, do their job so well. The problem is the story itself. Kind of boring, endless tragedies, all climax with no anticlimax. And if you ask me who I hate the most, It is Oh Yoon Hee. She playing herself victim meanwhile she’s the culprit. This is just a drama that I will not recommend to anyone I know.

Byby Mar 01 2021 5:34 am If you like a drama with that is not logic, then you can watch this drama. When you watch this drama, I recommend you not to think something like "what about the cctv?" "So many people yet no one saw the event happened?" No, don't think. Just watch. Because this drama has a lot of plot holes. If it doesn't has plot holes, then it would only ended in few episodes only.

It's a sarcasm, everyone.. honestly I thought a famous drama like this would be a good one. But it may be good for other people I guess... Since it's so popular.

A good thing is the actors and actresses acted well. I like the fact that the drama didn't be like typical korean dramas... Which makes me crave for those typical dramas more.

(SPOILER)

Why I said I crave for typical dramas? Because they won't make the good character to be THAT BAD. I mean, whyyyy it has to be Oh Yoon Hee to kill Min Seol A.. what a disappointment. But I will still watch season 2&3 to see the bad guys get their punishment. I don't like how kdramas nowadays need to have many seasons in order to complete.. waste my time and too draggy.

Noa Feb 28 2021 2:49 pm This is just furious what have happened at last to Shim Su-Ryeon. I just hate all the other characters. And I think that in term of acting, Lee Ji-Ah did a brilliant job and she is my favorite character. Lee Ji-Ah you're the Best!

Jrads86 Feb 28 2021 8:17 am LMAO, what's with all the hype over this drama.. Tried watching until Episode 4, but it's too much for me, its like another Sky Castle in the making plus It's stressful to watch and there's too much shouting and violence! This isn't my cup of tea...

dendi Feb 28 2021 7:21 am it's kind boring at the first.. but overall this is amazing drama.

ada Feb 27 2021 4:48 pm not yall hating on this show? the toxicity is everything! and yes this kind of bullying exists in real life.

Jil Feb 27 2021 12:25 pm Worst show so far.

The writer seems to be enjoying too much on focusing the wins of evil.

And the leads roles character are too week. I dont feel anything for main roles because they are too fools.

Oh common, it’s 2020.

And oh btw, i did not watch the whole thing, its just too much.

Intan Azmil Feb 27 2021 9:52 am Love this story. Excellent !

Kim Lay Lee Feb 27 2021 7:25 am I don't know why, but i don't like Bae Ro Na. Because of her, her mother's life is chaotic. I dont like the scene when she not accepted to join Chung A School, she becomes like crazy. Immature girl. Because of her, her mother wanna make the best for her, then her mother killed Min Seol A.

Sassbaekk Feb 25 2021 9:08 am I feel like I'm watching a series in Indosiar with many unnecessary plots and overdramatic acting. I thought it would be like World of The Marriage or Sky Castle, very popular but very good too. But this one, it's so ridiculous I mostly laughed at several scenes ?

Carrie Feb 23 2021 5:05 pm TOO MUCH SHOUTING!!! Does this kind of bullying from the kids and the parents really exists? Its like watching a never ending saga of twisted plots. Sky Castle was a good kdrama but this one is worst pure evil!

Madman999 Feb 22 2021 7:39 am If you've watched other dramas by the writer like Jang Bo Ri, my daughter Geum Sa Wol and last Empress, you'll see that her style is to create these outrageous situations that go back and forth. The villains prosper in the beginning but eventually get their punishment in the end.

It's all for entertainment.  Don't take it too seriously.   It's almost comical with the level of over acting. It's meant to leave you on the edge of your seat and maybe punch the TV.  Classic makjang genre.

The series probably was supposed to wrap up neatly by episode 18 but when they got the confirmation for a season 2, the writer probably had to change everything around to support it.

MelissaM Feb 21 2021 9:41 pm Funny thing, You can see all the korean elite's parents here trying to get their kids into Korean private schools instead of sending them all the way to the best school abroad.. too much unnecessary plot and I must say, that this drama have kinda telenovela vibes into it.. too draggy..

Dek. Feb 18 2021 9:21 pm Han Ji Hyun is so great when it comes to acting. Even thoigh she just joined this kind of industry but she did really well in her first project❤️ I really love her so muuuuchhh. Fightinggggggg

G Feb 18 2021 8:34 am The girl playing seok kyung is also a great actress! deserves more recognition

Kris Feb 17 2021 9:50 pm Hate this drama. Skipped most of it. Skimmed through last two episodes hoping the ending would make it worth it. Nope. Talented actors seen in other things but no thanks. Too much. Just too much. Why anyone in Korea wants to be rich is beyond me? I’m hoping that that woman is actually alive and it’s all part of a plan for the rest of them to fall into a trap they can’t get out of. I know the admissions scandal was taken from real life former President in prison, mystery President speech writer and daughter who was an equestrian. I actually suspect a few governments are headed by people behind the scenes. Surprised and impressed Korea rooted out such a matter.. Can the writer for the sequel have them all partying in the penthouse and while everyone else evacuates successfully they don’t and the building comes down with them at the top? Yachting accident? You know the kids are going to be victims. He is not going to put her daughter first and she won’t put the twins first. Are the police really imagined by writers to be so dumb? First parasite and now this. They won’t notice the maid has a bunch of gold? The witness to it all? This better be a trap.

What happen to the glass Feb 16 2021 6:56 am Anyone wondered what happened to the shattered glass when Seol Ah fell through to the fountain? The blood was cleared and all but nobody said anything about the broken glass from the ceiling and how did they managed to fix that in that few hours lol

charity Feb 13 2021 9:13 am This drama is very interesting. It is also not for everybody because not everyone likes violence and bullying. I was really captivated eventhough I got angry at some of the bad characters... Overall, its very interesting

n Feb 12 2021 1:55 am Interesting drama but it has a lot of plotholes, too unrealistic and very draggy. I personally think Sky Castle and The World of the Married are better and much less makjang.

ghadi Feb 10 2021 2:55 pm Hi. this drama is fatal!! I'm from saudi Arabia

Falia Feb 09 2021 6:22 am Stopped watching this drama after episode 2. Gosh, the 7 deadly sins are all in the people here haha. This drama is too much. The effort to become a soprano is just unbelievably insane. I dont think Maria Callas had ever been through this situation. Can't stand watching this anymore even though some of the actors are my fav.

Someone Feb 09 2021 3:58 am Emilia, you need to understand..this is a drama..it is not real..of course there will be cctv or anything to prove about min seol a dead..but this is a drama..thats how it worked to keep the story continue as the writer plan..and in the last episode, joo dan tae makes a deal with logan's father to get all the money that Logan took from dan tae so he will free logan alive..

Emilia Feb 08 2021 9:46 am Nice concept but theres many plothole in series.

Spoilers!!

Ep 4 --> It just nonsense that theres no people knowing that Seol A fall and died in penthouse statue other than "6 evil people", while theres huge party and firework show that attended by many people, or at least staff/security penthouse noticed theres a girl falling, i clearly remember too that Seol A breaking the glass ceiling before falling to the statue.

Ep 18 (and before that too) --> why theres no cctv clip that record floor 47 wheres Seol A running and ask for help to Yoon Hee, when Dan Tae drag her to balcony, and when Yoon Hee back to Seol A again and drop her to dead?? Meanwhile there is cctv clip that showing Yoon Hee going to Seo Jin's course room and breaking things there. The whole series are going crazy looking for Seol A's murderer, when they actually can get it from cctv clip in 47 floor.

Last ep --> I just can get it how Logan free himself from Dan Tae locked room with many guards? Dan Tae isnt a person who will freely let his hostage free. And if Logan fight with Dan Tae's guards, why theres no explain on this?

Alyssa Feb 08 2021 4:10 am It's so intense and I like waiting for season 2

Heba Feb 06 2021 7:03 am Spoilers!!

Now I’m in ep 18. Everyone keeps saying that Ro Na is the reason her mother became a murderer!! Well half of it is wrong because Cheon Seo Jin was the one who persuaded her to kill min seol ah, plus she didn’t even think of murdering her even tho RoNa didn’t get accepted. She wasn’t that crazy greedy woman that was aiming for her daughter to always be the first one at school, she only needed her to attend the school without any trouble because the two of them already have a gifted lovely voice, she’s not like Cheon Seo Jin. The only thing is that she was completely drunk the night she killed Seol Ah and it was her only crime, but I can’t believe how she turned to a buthole and evil, never thought that would happen, now she became not only evil but also an injustice old rich women just like the rest of the penthouse.

Jay Feb 05 2021 12:16 am That's a disturbingly dark horrible series. They'd play silly music and the Penthouse people would act silly when the show's focus shifted on a physically abused or dead female (Min Seol-A), which wasn't amusing. You do root for the "good guys" but you want to reach in the TV and punch all the jerks/bad-people yourself (and there are a lot of jerks). It's as the last reviewer said, everyone is sick and full of hate in this drama. I don't know if I'll watch season two, this show crosses the moral compass line right through the very end of the season. If season 2 is around as long as season 1, I definitely can say I won't watch, 100%, season 1 was too dragged out.

Ryu Samuël Feb 01 2021 4:28 pm I watched the 1st episode and I'm already sick. Everyone is sick in this drama. Each episode lasts one entire movie and in 1h30 minutes each, it's all about being mean and evil towards everything and everyone. Imagine watching 21 episodes of 1h30 each about madness and hatred (30h non stop of hate). And they want to make 2 other seasons of that. Are you masochists ?

Meh Feb 01 2021 3:58 pm I watched the first 4 episodes, got bored and watched the last episode. I don’t regred. This drama wasn’t my cup of tea. Too dramatic in a very artificial way. I haven’t seen Sky Castle, but if the people are saying this was very much like it, then I’m not going to waste my time. I expected something more realistic, because others were also comparing this drama to The World of the Married, which I loved. If you like hyper-melodramatic / over the top / very unrealistic fiction-crime-adultery -kind of soap opera then this is for you.

Jude Feb 01 2021 9:58 am Just observe the character of Min Seol-Ah, she's like the character of Kim Hye-Na in "Sky Castle", both were an abandoned child that re-enter their parent life, became somekind private tutor and then got killed eventually. Not mentioned the glamorous life of the main roles and about education issues of their children. Is it might be the scenario of this drama was inspired by "Sky Castle" ???

Vei Jan 29 2021 5:58 am Read the comment section.. Glad im not the one who think this drama is just like sky castle. But... Much more dramatic and many scenes dont make sense at all. I can say 90% of the casts is so toxic.. I mean how can?? -_- and most of them keep doing stupid things for couple times. Predictable story line.. but i like the actress and actors on this drama. Full of talented person like uhm ki joon, lee jiah, kim soyeon etc. Still a good drama but i expect more, since many ppl talking about it.

Eksoel Jan 29 2021 2:13 am This drama for me is just like Sky Castle, almost the same story line. I got bored on the last episodes.

Queens Jan 28 2021 3:35 pm Logan Lee is crazy and in trouble. He does everything wrong and still steals brightness from the role of Yoon Hee, I hope that in the second season the three protagonists reign again. That's why I started watching the drama. Wake up writer!

Jude Jan 28 2021 6:41 am Taste like "Sky Castle" ?

Gina Jan 27 2021 12:50 pm Nah this ain't it. Everyone in this drama is so ratched and ghetto. smh

Ber Jan 26 2021 1:04 pm Still One Of The Best Kdrama Ive Ever Watched!!!! second is the Flower Of Evil. Can't wait for season 2 of Penthouse. Please watch this I assure you, you womt regret!!!! 10/10.

YAKOBUS JIMMY Jan 26 2021 8:43 am I can't say how emotionally my watching this drama since first episode and continues every episodes. All the drama cast show their strong character and deserved to achieve the nomination and got the winner this year... wonderfull!!

Sana Jan 25 2021 1:27 am @Aileen u should watch unni is alive too..its the same writer for these dramas..and so many plot twist here

AiLeen Jan 23 2021 8:51 am I still cant moved on! The writer is so talented. Didn't know shes also the writer of The Last Empress. This Drama is A Must Watch!!!!!!!! Cant wait for season 2. This is the best Kdrama by far!!!!!!!! Thank You.

Samantha Jan 22 2021 10:51 am I can't believe i finish watching in 3days! Its a masterpiece Kdrama!!!! Please watch. Highly recommend!!!!!!!

LeenAi Jan 22 2021 12:26 am I Love This Drama So Much!!! please watch if you like twisted mysterious kind of drama. Every episode makes me anxious. Kudos to all the actors and actresses who portray their character well. Cant wait for the season 2.

whyamiwatchingthis Jan 19 2021 7:12 am I forgot to add, watching them be suspicious of each other trying to accuse everyone for murdering Seola reminds me of playing Cluedo with my friends lol

whyamiwatchingthis Jan 19 2021 6:47 am Day two of watching this, i became more frustrated with each character. I said before that there's only two character that I can stand and now one of them is already dead and one on the way to become crazy. I don't know how to continue watch this anymore but i just hope that Seola will come back to live and haunt every one of them. Even tho I kinda like Seola in this, I can't help to wish that she's a much more strong character that keep quiet but to bring everyone down behind the scene. But that's maybe because the drama I watched before this series which is My Mister have the character with the same background as Seola yet quick witted to work queitly behind the scene to bring down the people who have fault her. This drama really remind me of the old school korean drama that have suspense every minute. I prefer the flow of new dramas such as It's Okay To Not Be Okay, Sky Castle and The World Of Married but that's personal preference.

Ohaba Jan 18 2021 2:14 pm This drama is superb!!! Im regretting thag I wished this kn a weekday. I can't focus on work so I had to take a leave just to watch this drama lol. So intesnse

Sunil Jan 18 2021 1:00 pm This drama is just insane!!! The plot is crazy, the cast is incredible! I fell in love with Lee Ji Ah through this drama. What a woman!

whyamiwatchingthis Jan 18 2021 8:41 am This is the first day im watching this drama. Im now on ep 3 and so far each character irks me to the point that I cannot stand them. The only character that I can stand are only Suryeon and Seola. Idk wether the storyline or the acting make it seem so exaggerated. So far the story gives the same vibe as Sky Castle but Sky Castle is way more superior compared to this but im only on ep 3 soo let's see. Im gonna comment my journey watching this everyday so stay tuned.

Eon Jan 18 2021 12:10 am I enjoy watching this drama and i like Soo Ryeon is best actor a smile & sad for spoiler alert. Oh Yoon Hee is best actor strong & cry. Hope season 2 is want watch (Soo Ryeon & Oh Yoon hee)!! Oh Yoon will find him & her one one day coz Oh yoon have heart Best Friend with Soo Ryeon is nice & no bad

Boim Jan 17 2021 11:12 am I watch this because of Kim So yeon. I love her acting since last year ever since I watch Beating Again and Mother of Mine as well as Happy Home. But despite being villain she is really pitiful...She craved for love from her father....her ex husband Yoon Chul who only leech her so hard for a position in Cheon Hospital and deceived by Dan Tae. She is smart but become stupid by love. All of the cast has memorable moments but as Seo Jin she has more than her main cast...the one that made me cannot believe was her piano madness...I watch in Viu Singapore the translation gosh even the director gor goosebump...me from scary and just wow because even hollywood actress I never saw an acting like her even in korea drama. Gosh she really deserve and Oscar if there is an Oscar in Korea probably Baeksang Award as best actress and Daesang SBS drama award in 2021. If she die in season 2 I definitely have no interest to watch....I am sorry I am just not interested in the character development of other character. There are no good people here....the writer actually made a clear point from the first time min seol A enter the hera palace it is just odd that she can deceive Seo Jin who is smart and always detail her age and appearance does not seem quite right but she can handle it...that made me a bit odd since when a 16 year old orphan have the ability and power to manipulate data....either she was intentionally was put as pawn...why is it she is very certain that her biological mother was in Hera palace and in Chung A from the beginning....who help her....and she contributed to her own death when she black mail seo jin and manipulate eun byeol trust not only once but twice. Anyway this plot is just odd. Seo jin is certainly creating her own little monster not because she hated Eun Byeol but because she does not know how to show affection. All she knows that like her eun byeol can strive like her. Yoon hee who made a stupid mistake and caused her own achievement. I mean why is she so mad being the second....It is just logical eventhough cannot be accepted that Seo Jin will be number 1 her family basically own the school as her father is the director. All I can say is that this woman is so obssesed with Seo Jin that she eventually become like her. Even after Su ryeon died I doubt that she will really have revenge for her. She is also spoiling to much of bae Rona. Gosh this mother duo is really a headache. If Seo jin and eun byeol competing each other with their pop out eyes then this two is always screaming and shouting. AS for Su ryeon not my favorit despite being nice and kind but she certainly is not a good mother. She is selfish when it comes to her own flesh and blood first with hye In and than Seol A revenge. She never even cared genuinely just obligated for the twins. SO it is just odd that she never knew the abused that the twins experience. She really is not a good mother only to her real one. She never cared about the twins. She never realize that she contributed to the death of Min Seol A. She thinks she is a good mother well she was never a good mother for the twins. She does not have a clue that a child in acting violently is because they were abuse. That is a simple psychology. I am not sure whether the writer create her as a bad mother despite being naive. She never even realize what happened for years what happen to twins. When min Seol A case happen all she can do is just blame the twins. Dan tae took it in a negative love she did the same thing. I can understand Seo jin is eventually a bad parent as well as Yoon Chul but Su ryeon I was hoping she will understand her step twins. She and Logan Lee is also just weird. Logan Lee where was he when Seol A was having a hard time. I mean he accepted her bone marrow....and the age of logan lee is not clear. I mean if he had waited for the suitable bone marrow and since birth than possibility he is supposed to be not even more than 30s probably 25 something at the most. So I really donot understand about this age. The bus trap is starting point that showed an adult like Su ryeon and Logan really is not better than the hera evil parents. Why have to trap those hera children they are still consider as minor or children so traping them and forced them to see how they torture these evil parents is just too much. I have to admit the acting is really good but morally it shows that there is none. Instead of going to the cops the two take it into their own hands then the cops. But seeing Seok Kyung tearing the books shows eventhough she misses the days with su ryeon she knows that she never loved them the moment she confessed that she was min seol A mother. I can understand why she will be more violent. Seok Kyung is the sensitive one among the twins. She is full of anger same like eun byeol but seok kyung is really in another level. She only have her twin brother so donot blame them if they are attached to each other. Unlike Eun Byeol who has no sibling at least the twins have each other. Jenny and Min hyuk were spoiled but they have a loving family. I was not surprise that seo jin succeed to be the next queen in the penthouse. This drama is not about good vs evil this is about desire so my guess the season 2 and 3 will be about who can control the situation and win the penthouse. The winner is the ace. Season 1 among the women...Seo Jin won since Su ryeon expose herself to Dan tae and it just make sense that the crazy Dan tae will kill Su ryeon. he used seo jin so what really happen to his wealth. Hye in is in america with logan. Will Seo Jin be still the next queen in season 2 or Yoon Hee since she is a double crosser....or will it be the woman with the butterfly tattoo....what will happen to the twins and eun byeol. Seok Kyung and Eun Byeol hated each other because Eun Byeol is smarter than seok kyung and she can actually beat her if she has confident. I hope eun byeol will meet a nice man and not involve with seok hoon. Just let seok hoon with bae ro na. I am really not interest to see seok hoon and eun byeol not because i am a fan of seok hon ro na ....i find this couple as creepy as Dan tae with all the Hera women. Will seok hoon be the next dan tae....he is also psychotic and violent.

Rosanna Jan 17 2021 8:51 am This drama is full of twists, you cannot predict what will happen. I must say that every single actor/actress executed their role perfectly!

SPOILER!

1st season is full of injustice, during this season some characters are trying to fight injustice, but all their attempts fail in the end of this season. Some people question why Logan didn't know/didn't help Min Seol A. Watch carefully first season, Logan answered this question. I would not define Shim Su Ryeon as a bad mother, because she is not bad mother. She did mistakes like every parent does. Although she is not biological mother of twins, but she truly loves them and continues to love them and care about them and didn't want to leave them despite how cruel they behave. Of course having an ill child you are likely to fail to put proper attention to other kids. She acknowledges that and blames herself for all the mistakes and omissions in raising children. I would also not blame the Penthouse children, their parents did not raise them properly. The life will teach them lessons. At least at the end of this season some of the children start to realize their mistakes, which is already a progress.

Hope seasons 2 and 3 will not disappoint!

Ji Jan 16 2021 6:48 pm SPOILERS! I enjoy watching this drama and I like how Kim So Yeon potrayed her character. She's really a good actress.

But some things really got me thinking. For example, if Logan cares that much, how could he not know that Min Seola had been living in poverty that she had to falsified her docs to get illegal job? Speaking of which, how did she falsify her docs? Anyhow, Min Seola is an underaged orphan, how could Logan possibly think she could survive by herself in Korea?

I like that everybody has shown positive and negative side, and I feel bad for Shim Soryeon. Although she isn't really my favourite character as she's rather self centered and naive. She's been diligently seeking revenge for her dead daughter and been caring for her 'supposed' daughter in the hospital bed, but she isn't the mother of the year. She doesn't really care about the twin, absolutely clueless about the punishment system applied by her husband while it's been going on for a long time looking at how the twin react to it. The twin hate her but she doesn't show any effort to solve this matter even before Min Seola problem arises. And while she's good at planning a revenge against Joo Dante, she couldn't do just as discreetly when dealing about the second part of revenge. She keeps on telling O Yeonhee her plan of sending the murderer to jail even after knowing it's O Yeonhee. The woman has an underage daughter, how could she possibly think she'll be willing to go to jail? I hate it that she's dead, but it's not a surprise that she'd end up being murdered.

I'll watch the second season, really looking forward to seeing Kim Soyeon's acting.

Moon Jan 16 2021 8:44 am Main actress started as a loser and ended up a loser. Geez, no point in watching all this drama. The main actress has no character development and she keeps on getting beaten by the mean one since high school.

J. Jones Jan 15 2021 10:19 am How could you allow such horrible people to get over and such pitiful ones get so shafted?!11i didn’t expect a happy ending but this was just to tragic! Only the bad guys got over and the down trodden were truly screwed! I know this is during Covid times but a little reprieve for the screwed over victim’s would make me feel better along with Justice for all! Please make astounding comeback with another season! Some justice he victims dead and alive!

Mawar Jan 13 2021 11:33 am I agree with chilla. Still cant accept the last episode. Rooting for another season. Please... I want justice for every act of theirs. I want the antogonists to suffer what they have done. Please...

chilla Jan 11 2021 8:49 pm OMG!!!! still I cant accept the Last Episode!! huhuhuh.I want the antogonists to suffer what they have done. its tragedy! rooting for another Season. plssss

Leavemebe Jan 11 2021 8:07 pm So if Soo Ryeon has a twin that she doesnt know about then why didnt joo dan tae just stay with the twin? Unless they were separated at birth and the other twin is poor because we know joo dan tae wants Soo Ryeon because she came from a very wealthy background.....hmm i feel like they all could have just ended with one season...

Klaudia Jan 11 2021 5:59 pm Kim na na the question mark was supposed to be a smiley emoji hehe :)

Kim Na Na Jan 11 2021 6:16 am Wow! At first I thought pls no, not a musical drama or high school stuff. So boring. But like "The last empress" the story is very fast paced. Unpredicting. And the cast! WowW. Even the kids were so good.

Moon-A Jan 08 2021 9:37 pm Wowww!!!Daebak..it's winter but the drama made me super hot, I don't want to predict coz really can't wait for S2, congrats to the cast for their excellent acts, one thing I really hope is to see Soo Ryeon in S2, saranghae...

Najmun Nisha Jan 08 2021 4:13 pm i think in next season the story will turn into children. Children will take revenge on behalf of their parents.

Eun byul will play with her own mother.bcz she is aware of her mother that she killed her grandfather. Seokhoon was watching where maid were taking cash. so it could be possiblity that he will take revenge on his father for his mother. and ofc her sister will help Him.

and his another sister Will also come for her revenge ofc it's Hye in.

Ro na will proove that her mother is not culprit.

Now the story will be more interesting if they involve children in revenge... hehehe lol i want children to involve in this Revenge Game. and their master mind would be LOGAN.

Hahahaha Thank You For Reading.. Its My Own Story??

Farnersfodder Jan 07 2021 9:41 pm Wouldn't be surprised if the tatooed woman in the photo and mother of the twins is actually SSR's long list twin she never knew she had. It's then revealed JDT is not their biological father.

Carmen H Fernandez-Fernandez Jan 07 2021 5:54 pm Did anyone see in the drama the mother of the twins, who has a tattoo on her back?

Carmen H Fernandez-Fernandez Jan 07 2021 5:49 pm The writer of this drama did know how to turn everything around. Now I have more incongruities than before. I'll be watching season 2.

Help! Jan 07 2021 3:27 pm Shalom are you talking about the peice played by cheon seo jin its mazzeppa etude by Franz Liszt

Ong Lay See Jan 07 2021 8:00 am The story does not leave behind a good moral. Only showed Cash is King. The wealthies can do what they like and were not punished for their wrong doings. I am very dissapointed with the finale.

naddy Jan 07 2021 3:30 am where is yoo jungwoo?? i waited for him to come out

Mary Jane Goco Jan 07 2021 2:16 am I want to watch the full episodes

deFox Jan 06 2021 9:41 pm at this rate, i won't surprise anymore if they find time machine to bring SSR back

azikaonika Jan 06 2021 12:35 pm this is the best drama I've watched so far, the acting of the cast is very good. I can't wait for season 2, fighting !!!!!!! :)

aira Jan 06 2021 11:22 am Penthouse Drama is one of the best Korean dramas this year besides drama flower of evil, its okay not to be okay, Alice and Kairos. I started watching penthouse dramas because of the actors I used to watch their dramas like kim so yeon (all about eve), eugene (wonderful life & three dad one mum) and uhm ki joon (Phantom, Defendant). I started to like the plot of this drama and I never skip any episode of this drama after watching it. Eventhough I dont like its ending show all bad people won but I am satisfy with this ending. It give good lessons in journey of life from oh yoon hee's character. eugene, kim seo yeon,and lee ji ah are great actress. I think one of them or all of them will be nominated in the category of the best actress in Baeksang Art Awards along with other candidates such as seo ye jin (Its okay not to be okay) and moon chae won (flower evil). Other great actors this year such as kim hee sun (Alice), lee yu ri (lie of lie) and lee se young (kairos) also have potential too.

I think the golden era of Korean dramas around 2000. The main actors actresses of this era are very good acting and I like them back to being heroes and heroines in latest drama.

Mo Jan 06 2021 11:16 am Great twist and turns! The most dramatic Korean drama ever! It's similar to my favourite U.S. drama, ''Revenge''. Now this is what I call progress in Korean drama instead of the usual ''neat endings'', they leave you with a season cliffhanger to keep you hanging on! It seems that the usual K-drama viewers just want their usual happy endings. Might as well watch repeats of old dramas! Be patient for the series finale! That's where the real ending is! Until then, keep waiting!;-)

jinkee mallare Jan 06 2021 9:48 am please beware and sensitive to the story that u want to emphasize with your viewers, u should influenxe rhe audience with proper lessons and affirmations on how to value morality and faith in life. Dont ruin, influence and manipulate the minds of your audience...although it is just a story still makenyour story more valueable and inspiring to your viewers. In fairness to your actors they are all good...

Mr.B Jan 06 2021 9:33 am Season 1 has ended. There were so many plot twists but no conclusion. I can’t wait for Season 2 and see how the Hera Palace members pay for their mistakes.

Run Jan 06 2021 9:06 am What if the twin's mother looks exactly like shim sur yeon lol that would be hilarious

Lina torres Jan 06 2021 8:48 am Daebak! Daebak! intense! .. The best storyline, ending /last episode for me, even it's hanging, but who cares, season 2 is coming soon. Kudos to the writer and director how can they created a good plot that people didn't get what next and absolutely different from any Kdramas ur watched before. The cast? Undeniable quality of award winners. ???

Lisa S Jan 06 2021 7:53 am Im glad its over. the ending of Season 1 is not convincing me to start watching Season 2 / 3. this penthouse drama is a total waste of time.

I m looking forward to Joseon Exorcist! :D

QueenSuryeon Jan 06 2021 7:50 am It's indeed, one of very rich and very well made dramas. The cast has been perfectly chosen and the acting skills of each character in this drama should be highly acknowledged. The success of this drama may indeed. be a combination of the actors and actresses superb acting as well as the amount of plot twists and cliff hangers which this drama had. I would definitely recommend this for those people who are open to experience a rollercoaster of emotions while cheering for the characters to take revenge over those who have done others poorly.

Also I cannot understand the criticism towards this drama? Why are so many ppl so salty about it? Appreciating the art, choice of actors, music and plot twists alone makes the drama so likable even though there may have been many sacrifices in terms of characters. But this is a part which makes the whole work of art so so interesting!

SPOILER ALERT: However, I also pity Shim Su-Ryeon and am very sad about the fact that she was murdered at the end. I still have some hope that maybe there is something we the viewers don't know that maybe she got a well done surgery and survived ㅠㅠ.... I am also not quite sure whether the scene with Oh Yoon Hee which we saw at the end was the truth? Maybe she had some hallucinations and dreamt of taking her life in front of Logan Lee? Who knows? This drama has so many unspoken and yet hidden scenes which we probably may not even imagine. Absolutely looking forward for S2, can't wait for what's yet to come in the Penthouse!

Jack Bean Jan 06 2021 4:26 am this drama are so different from the typical wealthy people vs poor people.the character are played losslessly according to reality life.which mean we can see flaws in every character even if its the good character.they show it to us.all the emotion,facial expressions,the mess,the situations,the mood visual filter all are the best.

Seasintwo Jan 06 2021 4:23 am Why blame Romo? Lmao

yukino_Honey Jan 06 2021 4:17 am All shits started because of Rona.

Ga Sooo Jan 06 2021 3:50 am I wish Park Tae-Yong, Park Sam-Soo and Lee Yoo-Kyung from Delayed Justice appear at The Penthouse season2. To give a lesson to Mr.Jo and Ms.Cheon (SBS DRAMA)

Amu fe Jan 06 2021 3:43 am I wish SBS combine The Penthouse with Delayed Justice at Season 2. Delayed Justice cast will give a lesson to Ms.Cheon and Mr.Jo

SSR Jan 06 2021 3:18 am Total waste of time

whydidiwatchthis Jan 06 2021 2:10 am Why did i watch this lol thank god for the --> button. I've never seen a main character's character development go that downhill lmao. The plot development made me really scratch my head haha I didn't know i was was actually watch a "soap soap" drama. Damn I feel played :)

mel Jan 06 2021 1:55 am I know there will 2nd and 3rd season.. But please, at least the director make something climax for the viewer. This last episode for the 1st season is totally zero. No climax at all. Worse episode. feel really disappointed. I wonder the rating too. I know that this drama got high rating, maybe thats the reason why the director decided to make it until 3 seasons.

Davod Jan 06 2021 1:07 am Dragging it 3 seasons? It honestly should have been 1 season... funny that.

kiztee Jan 05 2021 11:39 pm The actor and actress are really great!!! The acting was brilliant! Unfortunately, the ending is Worse, bad, dissappointed. hufff

faduma mohamed Jan 05 2021 11:11 pm I was so mad about how it ended but only to realize that there will be a second season. this show is such an emotional rollercoaster and eveyone watching must buckle up or you will be lost.

hana Jan 05 2021 11:10 pm Very disappointed!

Nomnom Jan 05 2021 10:14 pm Cant get enough! I want to watch more episodes the drama is surprising amazing fascinating! Wishing same casts. Oh yoon hee will be the revenger here I guess and she will collab with sukyeong truly mother because she's having an avenge too with dantae

Mona A. Jan 05 2021 9:00 pm (SPOLERS!) Amazing Acting, Absolute Work of Art. This drama was the best k-drama I've watched in a while. Lee Ji Ah, Eugene, and Kim So Yeon especially stole the show with their superb acting. This drama is unlike so many k-dramas and is truly one of a kind. The ending was not what I expected at all... how could they kill off the best character in the show!? This drama had me on the edge of my seat till the very end. I hope everyone watches it and supports the drama as well as the upcoming season. Can't Wait For S2!!!!

Shim SuRyeon Jan 05 2021 8:53 pm This Is Ridiculous! I want my time watching this stupid makjang Back

chill Jan 05 2021 6:26 pm goddamn chill guys lol whats the fuss about. its a makjang drama whachu expect i honestly enjoy it and will definitely watch the S2, can't wait even. i think the writers, director, all the stuffs involved did a great job. making the drama interesting and making people very engaged to it. 3 weeks to go woo!!

Bae Ro Na Jan 05 2021 6:06 pm Back to zero ending. I waste my timeee. But credits to all the actors. They did a good job there representing each character.

Vicki Jan 05 2021 5:00 pm In the drama it's 2019 but they have phones from 2020

Wenn Jan 05 2021 4:51 pm 2 more seasons? seriously??? i think im wasting my time all this while.

Tsukiko2002 Jan 05 2021 3:08 pm SPOILER

The worst ending I've ever seen. After SSR is dead, has the CSJ taken its place, seriously? How could you make such an end? instead of the good to win, those who don't deserve in any case won. if I knew it would end, I would never look at it and 2 more seasons, for what? at the end of one to die logan lee or what?

g Jan 05 2021 8:45 am SPOILERS. Idk but the prev eps were kind of disappointing. I'm not surprised b4 that Oh Yoon Hee is the killer of Seol A bcoz I expected that plot twist, but the death of Su Ryeon? Nah. It's like the drama went down the drain imo. I guess they rlly need to do that to make way and for the next "season" to be more interesting. But still,,, Su Ryeon is like the horseman of this drama. I am now wondering how the next season will run. They need an interesting character to take her place. Or is it Oh Yoon Hee? Hmm.

Poor Oh Yoon Hee, got fooled by Joo Dan Tae. She and Ro Na's character are annoying due to their attitudes. She don't deserve what they're experiencing because of the people at Hera Palace. The murder was clearly a set up. She didn't kill Su Ryeon and only admit to the crime out of guilt.

But come to think of it, all of that won't happen only if they weren't too ambitious. She even sided with Joo Dan Tae which is a snakey thing to do knowing what he did to your friend. Good thing for her she didn't tell him that she killed Seol A 'cause it will be a big thing for the case against her.

P.S. Choi Ye Bin is so good at acting. She deserves an award for playing Ha Eun Byeol.

Aynee Jan 05 2021 4:50 am I just wasted my time on nothing

R Jan 05 2021 2:25 am Hate everything about this drama

SakcRuth Jan 05 2021 1:58 am Stellar Casts, this Drama really have that it factors. The Writer have the power in this Drama an addressed to Mental illness, since one of the Character portrayed “Eun-Byeol”, I pity her. She a stellar actress. This drama brings a lot of emotions, desire, power, and much more. So when all that crumble down let’s see which crown will fall down.

Davod Jan 05 2021 1:38 am My question is.... Why..?

ella Jan 05 2021 1:18 am i dont think yoon hee actually murder her

Luna Jan 05 2021 12:44 am SPOILERS!!! If Shim Su Ryeon and Logan Lee aren't alive and in season 2 I'm done with this drama. They was THE BEST, She was amazing and how I suppose to believe that she was killed by the maid. Really? The maid. I'm so angry, I loved this drama, but if this will be the end for this season I'm not gonna watch season 2 or 3. If Shim Su Ryeon is really dead, this drama disappointed me a lot.

Jaya Jan 05 2021 12:14 am SPOILERS... I don’t think oh Yoon hee killed su Ryeon... I think the maid killed it as she has been the one who dress up as Su Ryeon & even edited their family picture as she is the Real mother of the Twin .. there has been a twist in the end of 20 but I guess Su Ryeon will come to alive somewhere in season 2 .. as she is the main protagonist of this drama

Maya Jan 04 2021 11:26 pm Oh yoon hee is the biggest snake ever I thought SeoJin was worse but Oh yoon hee turned out to be a two faced b****. I hope Su Ryeon gets back at her good.

Jamse Jan 04 2021 9:10 pm SPOILERS

I believe the maid may have killed Su Ryeon because she’s delusional but I don’t believe she’s the twins real mother. Let’s be honest, she’s not hot enough to headline season 2.

Dugun Jan 04 2021 8:35 pm SPOILERS. I think the maid is Seok hoon and Seok kyung's real mother. Maybe she had done the plastic surgery so Joon Dan Tae couldn't recognize her?

In the end, the poor will always be poor. Oh Yoon Hee and Rona shouldn't be involved with the people at the Penhouse in the first place. Because of Rona's greed, Yoon Hee became a murderer. Rona is a real bitch! I glad her name is the same as Coronavirus a.k.a. Ms.Rona. Everybody hates Ms.Rona!

Also why Shim Suryeon is so careless?! She's been planning for the revenge all this while, but it's so easy for people to kill her? how come she went back to the penthouse like that? She should've known better that once she steps into the penthouse, her husband would kidnap and kill her. Ughhh so frustrating.

johanna Jan 04 2021 7:52 pm Well I guess Su Ryeon did get to meet her daughter.. just not the one who is alive.

jin Jan 04 2021 6:54 pm i really love how this drama going. all of the casts are great and they deserved all the awards in SBS. just like that, it looks like a rollercoaster ride of emotions!!!

Vaness Jan 04 2021 5:14 pm I think the one who played ha eun byeol deserves the young best actress award (no hate for bae rona) look at the scene while she was reading the comments in ep 20, she's really into it and admit it, we all hated her character that means she's an effective young best actress imo.

sureerat Jan 04 2021 4:48 pm Ro Na is the reason why Yoon Hee is in the jail. If wasnt because of her greed, her mum wouldnt be involved in the all thse scandal (living in the Hera palace). Yoon Hee is leading her child to the wrong path...that's why her daughter , RoNa is grown up to an ignorant fool.

Ellie Jan 04 2021 4:18 pm Spoiler!!!!

what if Shim Soo Ryun is not died ????  This drama has 2 more seasons. I mean at this stage there is no conclusion where we can reach. And also they can't kill the main character ... if they don't bring her bad this drama has nothing to watch anymore ... it just becomes a waist of time drama -_-

Luna Jan 04 2021 2:44 pm SPOILER

Even if she wasn't killed by Oh Yoon Hee she was killed, she died and will not come back. My favorite character, I'm totally down to earth, why didn't he go with Logan. I don't know how to look at tomorrow's episode, after today's episode

Kim Seo-Yeon Jan 04 2021 2:30 pm SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 20:

Shim Su-Ryeon was murdered, in episode 21 preview you can see Ih Yoon-Hee admitted to murdering her even though she did not and was accused as she was the one who found Shim Su-Ryeon laying on the floor. I feel like it was the maid because she was the one who lured Su-Ryeon into Joo Dan Tae’s room telling her that the kids are there. When Su-Ryeon entered the house, the maid wasn’t there. How would the maid know that the kids were the if she was ‘grocery shopping’. I think the reason why she killed Su-Ryeon was because the she was the real mother of the twins, that’s why you can see in episode 18-19 you can see Joo Dan Tae forcing her to leave the house be she couldn’t because she didn’t leave want to leave her kids and ‘her house’ because she’s the one who is suppose to be in Su-Ryeon’s position as penthouse owner since she was the real mother of the twins and she was the lover of Joo Dan Tae. She maybe stabbed her because she thought that Su-Ryeon take everything away from her.

Luna Jan 04 2021 2:27 pm SPOILER

WHY my favourite was killed by a piece of trash like Oh Yoon Hee. Why??? Shim Su-Ryeon was the best of this drama and she died? Why? Noooooooooooooo. I'm so angry right now.

Just speculating Jan 04 2021 2:57 am I think for the next episode, Bae Ro Na will commit suicide as she had read the DNA report that relates her mother to Seol A’s murder. Oh Yoon Hee will agree to tell to the police that she pushed Seol’s A. I agree that one’s said that the maid could be the biological mother of the twins.

Jane fernandez Jan 03 2021 7:33 am I really love penthouse in the story of it, saranghae

Bella Jan 03 2021 5:24 am I thought that there's only 20 episodes and no season 2 hahaha

g Jan 03 2021 5:05 am They all deserve the recognition and awards they got from SBS Drama Awards, but I think the actress who played Ha Eun Byeol deserve one too. Anyway, congratulations!

penthouse s2 Jan 03 2021 4:19 am Looking at the rating of this drama in Korea literally blows my mind. Korean really be hyping ridiculous drama and ignored super amazing plot drama. There's like a bunch of other good underrated k-drama that deserve more love than penthouse tbvh

Carrie Jan 03 2021 3:45 am I think the woman with the butterfly tattoo (the twins’ mum) is actually the maid

byeollie Jan 03 2021 3:42 am I really hate Oh Yoon Hee and Bae Ro Na coz they act like a loser sometimes and now I hate Yoon Hee even more lol but Shim Su Ryeon's really insaneee she's so good, a goddess

pinku Jan 03 2021 3:07 am in my opinion, their acting is very good and the story has a lot of unpredictable plot twists, which is, very interesting to watch every episode. but towards the end of season 1, it becomes a little exaggerated and turned into mission impossible (sorry to said that) But i love shim su ryeon role by the way. She is beautiful, smart, and charming. Cant wait for the last episode in season 1. And i hope, season 2 will be more interesting than season 1. Go go penthouse!

Gilder Jan 02 2021 6:05 pm Gosh...hope this drama end soon cos im looking forward to taxi deluxe drama

Jayden Lee Jan 02 2021 5:48 am @Amanda The season 2 will be aired as soon as delayed justice episodes completed

Same actor & actress cast from first season. Probably like Arthdal chronicles, expanding more episodes etc

Amanda Jan 02 2021 5:23 am Guys those the cast in season 2 will be same like season 1? Or they will add new cast? Reply me pls?

Kimi Jan 01 2021 7:54 pm @honeyharvest, I also followed from the beginning and I am also happy and proud that the cast was well awarded and especially Kim Hyun-Soo / Bae Ro Na who is very cute and talented and Shin Eun-Kyung / Kang Ma Ri (mother of princess Je Ni) who is wonderful, talented and I love her. And everyone on the team deserves due recognition ♡

Kimi Jan 01 2021 7:24 pm All seasons were planned from the beginning. They decided to bet on this idea even before the public reaction.

Aisho Jan 01 2021 7:19 pm am i the only one going insane because of this drama?

J Jan 01 2021 6:19 pm This is a good drama but sometimes there are parts where I feel like is dragging too much, and now they even have a season 2? I don't think thats a good idea, some fans might stop watching it already

Mmm Jan 01 2021 3:48 pm I really don't want them to stretch the plot for two more seasons. It'll be draggy. It'd be better if they wrap everythung up by the end of this season

Baklitang palaka fidel t.b..o. Jan 01 2021 4:39 am Oh yoon hee is quite annoying ? she's always involving herself into trouble.. I mean for the 3rd and 4th episodes actually she doesn't have any function at all.... Then she butt in again into meol ah death...like duh.... I'm starting to hate her...(Just sayin' out of frustration..peace yow) But their actings are great.... Daebak!

Milk Jan 01 2021 1:34 am @Carrie They’re definitely going to turn on the others just to save their behind or get a lenient sentence. We saw how that worked out for kicking Yoon out.

@Nikki the actress that play Min Seol A is on Royal inspector but she died the first episode.

honeyharvest Jan 01 2021 1:31 am I like the drama since the beginning, so I am very proud and happy for the recognition of the incredible actors.

next year has more awards (●♡∀♡)

Naria Jan 01 2021 1:01 am Congrats to the the show and cast for receiving so many awards at the 2020 SBS drama awards. Well deserved

Jenny Dec 31 2020 6:28 pm Oh Yoon Hee is the biggest snake ever

Srkla Dec 31 2020 4:30 am What if the house maid was behind all this mess?

Yun Dec 30 2020 8:09 pm Bae ro na is disgraceful ihate her role here

Bear Dec 30 2020 7:04 pm @Suryeonisqueen I never felt demoted, I just don't like bad interpretations. Anyway, we think differently. I just i meant that there is no reason to cast hate on Ro Na because his mother is bad. For this reason. Of course, we may not like the character for her personality and other reasons. But I believe that hatred is really unnecessary for the reason I mentioned earlier, even though she is not a pleasant character to watch. Anyway, I accept your apologies and also send. Have a nice day.

Lile Dec 30 2020 4:46 pm The last episode of season 1 might give us hint that Yoon hee is not the real killer.. even the identity of the woman with a butterfly tattoo and the photo Logan found on Jo Dante's safe still not yet fully revealed...

Suryeon is queen Dec 30 2020 4:44 pm @Bear I apologize if I came off as rude, did I somehow made you feel like I was putting you down? If so, I sincerely apologize. You might've misunderstood me though, what I was trying to say was that, personally I don't hate Rona but instead dislikes her irresponsibleness and how spoiled she was. I never once said in my comment that I hated her, nor that I assumed you wanted me to be fond of her. Also yeah, absolutely, she is not the worst character in the show and I don't even know why anyone would think that. She is changing now which is great, but I was pointing out how she still hasn't realized it or apologized for her mistakes. I also tried to answer your claim, that I may have misinterpreted, that "people hate on Rona cause she's the daughter of an evil character", is that what you were trying to say? Cause if so I was just answering that I dislike Rona's "personality"(I'm trying to emphasize here that I don't dislike her as a whole but rather her actions and mistakes) and not because of her mother. People are not hating on Rona based off how she's the daughter of Yoonhee but rather of her actions that she still hasn't realized or apologized for. Yes, she's incredibly amazing for not following the footsteps of the other kids who were taking part in bullying, but she still made mistakes that I was anticipating for her to apologize for. There's no strong closure that pointed out those mistakes when she was crying with her mom on that one episode. That's really all I want from her because I do find her as a good character. Anyway, Have a great day :)

Hera Dec 30 2020 4:36 pm @Lisa S Rona is Talentd and she was not really disqualified. its just Seojin and other rich adults and their children at Cheong ah arts are treating her unfairly. imagine, she knew Han eun byeol messed up her entrance audition but still got in because her mom is one of the judges. She was also tricked by her sly teacher, bullied by Jenny and her mother and her school.. Seojin and those rich adults and brats are the most shameful for rigging the entrance performance exam than her broking stuffs and protesting over the results. She deserves to study in Cheongah arts.

Lisa S Dec 30 2020 1:32 pm it has been confirmed that Season 2 will be aired in Feb 2021. Gosh, i would rather wait till the drama is over then only I will start to watch..

Ha Eun-Byeol - she was given a big burden from her mum to deliver the best result. That brings out the monstrous within her. Actually she is kinda pitiful.. I think she will be dead in the next episode, as the fortune teller mentioned that someone will die. Joo Seok-Hoon & Joo Seok-Kyung were abused by the father whenever they cant deliver good result.. Bae-Ro-Na on the other hand, over confident of herself. Thinking that she has great talent. When she was disqualified from the entry, she was disappointed and doesnt want to live anymore. funny thing is, she wasnt ashamed of vandalism (she broke the stuff at the school, lay down on the floor just to make sure that seojin will attend to her etc etc), being bullied but she was shameful about her mum's scandal.

Bear Dec 30 2020 1:00 pm Hello @Suryeonisqueen lmao? If you like to answer comments first of all know how to interpret. "Bae Ro Na is not bad. Since when do your parents' actions define you? Yoon Hee is a villain, but that only defines herself and not the people around her and even her daughter, who is the closest person Don't confuse this because you don't like the character. " At what point in my sentence did I tell you to like Bae RoNa? I just said that you can't confuse the bad person that Yoon Hee is and blame RoNa justifying the facts of being a mother and daughter and not liking the character. I also didn't like her personality she is spoiled and annoying, but that doesn't make her the worst person and she is not a monster like her mother.

And we can clearly see that Ro Na also has qualities that have always been different from other children, always had their own merit at school and never practiced bullying which already leaves her with a lot of positive points in relation to other children. You don't need to like RoNa to realize such things, but for you it's so difficult to notice the good things in something that you didn't even notice it?

And it is also clear that in this drama the children are the parents' replicas and that way the audience can easily misinterpret how you did it yourself. Anyway, it is just a matter of interpretation so interpreter right before laughing at someone's comment. The clown is in the circus and not here.

Aishasha. Termonfeckin Dec 30 2020 12:08 pm What a weird drama The Only good thing of the drama is their stellar acting skills.

Snow Dec 30 2020 11:17 am This drama getting weird, please finish this film. :(

DreXam Dec 30 2020 10:53 am The Best Korean Drama Ever Ever Ever Ever Drama of the Year <3

Lee Ji Ah is my new crash

rounchan Dec 30 2020 9:22 am Oh Yoon Hee is not a man. It was prop mistake. We plan to make the edit on VOD so that it no longer causes discomfort among viewers.

— Penthouse

it was a mistake guys this is really funny imagine i she was a man it will be really schoking

rounchan Dec 30 2020 9:18 am is yoon hee really a transgender or it is some mistake beacause people are starting to make false statements that on the poster of penthouse only yoon hee is standing with the man and all the woman are sitting down this is really confusing

Mandy Dec 30 2020 8:37 am Please do not tell me that there will be 21 episodes! Crap

anna Dec 30 2020 8:15 am acting is so unnaturally exaggerated that it’s obviously a drama

Narges Dec 30 2020 7:38 am Logan easily comes and go to herra palace, enters the penthouse easily without covering his face, attacks the security, there is no cctv probably to find out who entered the penthouse and helped sur yeon to get out! He is just a rich businessman yet behaves like a sia agent who can do anything! This just sounds stupid. Why would su ryeon show her face to those people then easily come back to hera palace!

The Rake Dec 30 2020 5:15 am Who noticed how weird it was for Logan and Su Ryeon to be yelling about when to kill their enemies right in the hotel lobby. A maid would have passed by and Logan would be screaming about going to kill Yoon Hee lmao

Sarah Lee Dec 30 2020 4:51 am Joo Dan-Tae look exactly like his role in Innocent defendant. He look innocent but has a big ambition Kang Ma-Ri amazed me with her acting...she has always been a elegant type in all other movies. In this drama, she turn into a gossip queen who pampered her daughter so much, her daughter jeni was in moon embracing the sun...she has always been a spoilt brat but adorable. I always love to watch Kim Hyun Soo (Bae Ro Na) in other drama but since penthouse... i started to skip all her part because i couldnt stand her being super annoying

Jamse Dec 30 2020 1:13 am Is there any character in this drama who isn't a psychopath?

Jen Dec 29 2020 10:56 pm I'm not gonna trust anyone anymore. Urghhh. Are they even human to do all these without feeling guilty?

Carrie Dec 29 2020 10:41 pm Oh Yoon Hee has got to be one of the most despicable and self-entitled character I've ever seen. Despite knowing that she's in the wrong here, she doesn't only not repent, but made things worse by trying to cover her tracks and betray her best friend - the friend that got her into Hera Palace in the first place. Not only that, she used the fact that Shim Su Ryeon as an excuse to seduce SR's husband. It's one thing to make a mistake and it's another thing to backstab someone just to cover your tracks.

Also, in this episode, initially I felt quite bad for the other parents who weren't really involved in Min Seol Ah's death (besides Joo Dan Tae and Cheon Seo Jin of course), but knowing that they were going to go against Shim Su Ryeon by saying that they were pressured to make a confession, really changed my impression of them.

Flowerdec22 Dec 29 2020 10:06 pm You guys don't trust anyone except Mrs.Shim. She really need a hug. I hope she find her happiness in the ending :'

Nikki Dec 29 2020 10:01 pm The story plot was interesting at first, but I think the love line between Su Ryeon (mother of Seol Ah) and Logan Lee (brother of Seol Ah) is unnecessary. In episode 19, why does Su Ryeon have to reveal her face to her enemies (this just puts her in a more dangerous situation, which Logan had to risk saving her). I can’t believe people wants Yoon Hee (Ro Na’s mother) to turn back into her old kind self - She’s the killer of Seol Ah. I just want everyone (including those bratty kids) who hurt Seol Ah to get what they deserve. I hope season 2 and 3 does not centre on those children, and wish the actress of Seol Ah could come back as another character, she acts well and her voice is really adorable.

Thinker Dec 29 2020 10:00 pm Well..why Hera Palace doesnt hv any cctv? i thought only rich people living there??? Shouldnt it be more safe?

Mr.B Dec 29 2020 9:44 pm Will Season 2 and 3 be the continuation from Season 1 and the story will be based on the children (students) when they grow up (working in the society) or it will be another new story line with new casts and maybe another story of another prestige penthouse building in Korea?

Just curious.

Valentina Dec 29 2020 9:07 pm The accuracy of the cast members(mail leads or not) is worth a gold medal for whoever wrote it and searched for it

We Dec 29 2020 7:49 pm The showed no remorsed at alll. Are they for real?

blueberry Dec 29 2020 7:14 pm Who hurt the writer of this drama?

Suryeon is queen Dec 29 2020 5:36 pm I was actually surprised to hear that this will have 3 seasons, I never knew, though with that, it is understandable that the drama is slow. As time passes by, I get more frustrated with Yoonhee, sure if what other people are saying that Yoonhee is not the killer is true, she still thought that she killed Seola and didn't take responsibility of it and even turned her back on Suryeon. Also @Bear lmao no one is hating on Rona cause of her mom, do you not see her lack of character development? did you not see how she never trusted her mom and always believed what other people said instead of asking her mom? She also always blamed her mom every single time something bad happened to her. If that doesn't make you dislike her personality and irresponsibility then I don't know what to say. She needs to realize that and stop blaming her mom for things her mom didn't cause.

Lovelyme Dec 29 2020 4:51 pm Hmm but what if the real killer is the twin’s real birth mother.....im sure she’s probably doing her own investigation on Su Ryeon and found out that seol ah was her real daughter so she came that night to push her because she hate Su ryeon....Sucks that Yoon hee is turning into an evil bitch...

kdrama lover Dec 29 2020 4:29 pm seeing oh yoon hee character transitions makes me feel cheon so jin and joo dan tae evilness not as bad as it should be.the good that turns monster is what freaking everyones out

Passionatewatcher Dec 29 2020 3:29 pm Yoon hee is a fuking bit*h. Period. Su Ryeon gave her so many fuking chances. Good thing i hate both her and Bae Ro Na from the very start so i have no regret. Hope Yoon Hee dies a slow painful death and rot in hell.

Ps. No i did not hate Bae Ro Na because of what her mom did but because what herself did. So fuking annoying.

Barbara Dec 29 2020 11:57 am SPOILER Do not believe Eugene killed girl. I think Doctor took her home and she is imagining. So far Eugene is turning out to be a monster

Suzyy Dec 29 2020 11:02 am Everyone in this drama is evil. End the drama already please.

Mandy Dec 29 2020 7:38 am this drama is a comedy...

think about it... if your child will be disqualify from entry to a prestigous university despite a good result, would you go and make a scene at the university? and cry foul "unfair this, unfair that?"

Then when your child damages in the university ...Would your exlover come forward to pay $100,000 settlement just to bail you?

Naya Dec 29 2020 4:20 am // spoiler alert

sorry not sorry but after I know oh yoon hee is the one who killed min seolah I really want her daughter Rona to suffer and her mom too their character make me sick ??

Haha Dec 29 2020 2:26 am @Kayla I was thinking the same? My guess is she is using him and Joon might like her but its one sided. They’re trying to redeem the boy Rona hate too. I don’t remember him trying to help min Seol-A, weird plot holes everywhere.

michelle Dec 28 2020 11:33 pm Kim So-Yeon and her daughter's acting is so bad! It's the worst!

michelle Dec 28 2020 11:32 pm Kim So-Yeon and her daughter's acting is so bad! The worst!

Kayla Dec 28 2020 11:15 pm Does not make any sense at all.

RoNa was upset with Oh Yoon-Hee because of the scandal between Oh Yoon-Hee and Ha Yoon-Cheol but then, she is going ahead to seduce Joo Dan-Tae?

Bored Dec 28 2020 6:03 pm I don't know why people keep doubting Yoon killed Min Seol A.. The writer literally showed you.. The dog dying, and nightmares was obvious. I hope Joon only likes Yoon not her. That would be a weird/ awful couple and Bae would get abused just like Joon treat his kids. Writer-nim needs to hurry the plot up. The last episodes have been dragging. There is 2-3 episodes left and still hardly any progress or punishment for the penthouse residents sins.

Foreigner Dec 28 2020 3:20 pm Superb ??????????

Bear Dec 28 2020 1:55 pm Bae Ro Na is not bad. Since when did your parents' actions define you? Yoon Hee is a villain, but that defines only herself and not the people around her and even her daughter who is the closest person to her. Don't confuse this because you don't like the character.

Bear Dec 28 2020 1:48 pm The 3 seasons have been confirmed since the beginning of the drama, that is, the writer divided the story into three parts. It's not like the drama is successful and they are dragging the drama out of ambition. In my opinion I don't think it is forced, but rather pretentious and now it gets more complicated because the public thinks it is something forced by the path of the plot and from the moment that not everyone knows the initial information.

TDS Dec 28 2020 10:32 am Why are Oh Yoon-Hee and Bae Ro-Na not part of the evil group?

   When crazy you are desperate.

draggie Dec 28 2020 10:28 am the ending will be very disappointing......cos they will drag the story to season 2, season 3

rounchan Dec 28 2020 7:29 am I think that the first season will end by oh yoon hee being the murder of min seol ah (but i'm convinced that she's not the one who killed her ) and developping a relation with jo dan tae and ofc logan and shim su ryeon . And Dr ha is the one who send soojin the video of the night where her father died, he will threaten her and he will have the upper hand on her actions. In my opinion i think that this is the best ending because the writer will leave many suspicious events to solve. on the contrary i think that the actors nailed and slayed their characters, i see that everyone is complaining about their acting but c'mon they have to act that way because that's the nature of the real characters they must be arrogant. and i'm looking forward to jo dan tae past and how he became such a self-arrogant person. lastly i think that this drama is very realistic in her plot, and the writer presented the real life of people who will do anything to get what they want.

Enies Dec 28 2020 6:30 am First of all: Thank you very much to all the actors, I love the acting!! It's very well done. The only think I will make a remark about is the constant screaming, every single line these women have is screamed out. They never talk normal, they drag people withouth any real reason and when its time to explain why they drag, they will scream more. Director, I have one request. Please let them talk, this screaming every single time they talk takes away the affect it has on me. It's nothing special anymore

The plot is good, i cant say it's great but it's good for sure.

honeyharvest Dec 27 2020 7:46 pm I looked at chapter 4 a lot, and realized that Eun-Byeol pushes Anne; she is the most suspicious to me and can try to blame someone else. Yoon-Hee was at the scene, but I believe her did not try to kill Anne, but to save her and just held the tennis shoes (Anne's foot is in with sock when it crosses the glass). It is very disappointing to see Yoon-Hee become a villain because she thinks she is a murderer, I liked her a lot but if she joins with Joo Dan-Tae she loses total credibility. it will be just another meaningless evil woman

watcher Dec 27 2020 8:27 am i'm gonna lose my mind if suryeon end up with logan lee. logically logan lee is still seol ah brother even tho he's a step brother. i hope the preview just showing them as a mother and son

Sana Dec 26 2020 6:57 pm What!!! Oh Yoon Hee a Murder !!! What a twist is that !! it was going so good before ep17 !! 'M so disappointed and I hope they're not gonna end it like that !

seul Dec 26 2020 3:32 pm cheon seojin is pure evil but i prefer her than eunbyul sorry her face just annoyed me so much

jung Dec 26 2020 3:29 pm i think this drama should just end it in season 1, people would eventually leave this drama bcs of this kind of storyline. it was good at first but near the end the plot twist kinda look forced??? they're trying too hard for real

Hussssssshhhh Dec 26 2020 10:34 am Waiting for Sure Yeon And Logan Lee bed scene cause it's rated 19 hahahahahaha

Kang Dadang suka nasi goreng Dec 26 2020 10:18 am Anjo: That's a winter coat and generally rarely washed. Especially if it's rarely used.

Kang Dadang Dec 26 2020 10:12 am Mr. B: Seo Jin slapped Seol A and the ring injured Seol A's cheek until it bled

Dan Tae might pass out from being injected with some kind of sedative by Secretary Jo.

Mr. B Dec 26 2020 8:58 am Why Cheon Seo Jin’s big red ring has blood during the night when Min Seol A was murdered?

Why Joo Dan Tae did not blanked out when there was blood on his face during the night when he fought with Min Seol A? But Joo Dan Tae fainted when he has blood on his face with Oh Yoon Hee and they went to the villa.

anjo Dec 26 2020 8:43 am How come there's still a blood on seol a necklace? Yon E didn't wash her clothes?

Mark.lrsa Dec 26 2020 4:58 am I miss Min Seol A

Icenote Dec 26 2020 3:34 am God, this drama really needs to end. The plot twists at this point are more like cheap comic twists.

Yoonee being the alleged is just bad writing. Her character suddenly pulling a 180 is such cheap writing.

Yen Dec 25 2020 10:35 am Noooo Yoon hee killed Seola?? i thought it was a man who killed her.. on episode 4, i thought i saw her wAlking or limping or something, then she met someone there but its not on an elevator when she met yoon hee, i swear it was man's back wearing a black suit?.. then she started running away when she saw him! I guess i saw it wrong?..

Yosefanny Dec 24 2020 9:36 am I really love this dramaa!! Still on going, and I can not wait for the next eps every week ❤❤

Latte Dec 24 2020 9:24 am @casa yes esp. the kids how they talkback their parents.

casa Dec 24 2020 4:48 am I only enjoy 70% of this drama. 50% for the storyline and the rest for the cast. Honestly, I'm a little disgusted by the actors' acting which sometimes looks very unnatural. they look 'too' too much in playing their roles that look cringe. but I appreciate their hard work because they get high ratings. congrats

Jayden Lee Dec 24 2020 2:07 am Good rating yes. i wont say this is the best drama. hehe then this is probably the only drama you watch in 2020.

I enjoy Kairos - Shin Sung-Rok was supposed to be in penthouse as Joo Dan Tae but his performance in Kairos is awesome! flower of evil - lee joon gi and The King: Eternal Monarch

Nomnom Dec 24 2020 12:31 am It can't be!!!! How could oh yoon hee acting nice but really a devil? Suryeon you are the only one who's good here. I can't trust anyone even logan but the eps18 logan is falling with suryeon!! Noooo!!

Vicky Dec 23 2020 11:59 pm The audience is soaring, I am very proud of the writer and everyone who works in Penthouse. Even with the criticisms, they managed to overcame. This is the best drama of 2020, you may not like it or watch it but you have need to admit.

tett Dec 23 2020 7:11 pm As expected. OYH is the killer.. unexpected she become a monster. no wonder ro na behaviour like that. no manner. so rude.

Latte Dec 23 2020 6:43 pm I stopped watching after seeing the twist. Why oh yoon hee turned out as a killer? Sad.

Dandilonee Dec 23 2020 3:31 pm I started this drama because people said it was good. Watched like four episodes and was bored out of my mind. They are trying too hard to not be sky castle that they looked like a knockoff wannabe of sky castle. I skipped ahead thinking it was going to get better and it is still boring. I gave up on it but I have been looking at clips to see if it will get better but it isn't. I saw the "twist" and it was lame and again boring. The acting in some is just terrible. They are overacting to the point where they look untalented. I have seen most of these actors in other works and they can do better acting than this. I do not recommend this one.

I really tried to like it but I can't. I think that the writing was bad and the actors really have not gotten their characters right. I think that this could have potentially been good if the writers spent more time on writing it and coming up with new ideas.

Maddy Dec 23 2020 12:32 pm I will going to survive this drama even though each episodes makes me angry.

Maddy Dec 23 2020 12:31 pm I am already angry in episode 1. As I watch each episode I get even angrier with the people involved. This drama is really stressful. It makes me angry!!!

Lune Dec 23 2020 6:50 am I am rooting for Rogan and Su Reyon couple. They looks so good.

stan enhypen Dec 23 2020 2:41 am i hate oh yoon hee character w my whole heart wtff she so mean... look like oh yoon hee will be on joo dan tae side she will work w home

Ba Ho-Tae Dec 23 2020 12:33 am Looks like Oh Yoon Hee and Joo Dan Tae will start dating on the coming episodes or next season.

This would have been nice of Shin Sung Rok oppa didn't back out on the Joo Dan Tae role. Uhm Ki Joon and Eugene don't look good together.

Joey Dec 23 2020 12:28 am @sanashasha.. what do you mean? hye in is not a stranger to Soo Ryeon. After joo dan tae switched the babies, she has been Soo Ryeon's "biological" daughter since birth. She loves her very much and will take a bullet for her.

Ku Yoo Kkot Dec 23 2020 12:28 am I don't like where the story is going. Yoo Hee being a murderer and a possible mistress of Joo Dan Tae? ew. Also Logan Lee and Shim Su Ryeon? yuck.

Suzieyss Dec 22 2020 11:07 pm I think one greed does matter in life if it too much it could drive people insane. The only thing matter is themselves others that try to get in their way should vanished. That's what I learn, anyway I hope there plot twist in finding the truth instead of the plot that I have in mind.

sanashasha Dec 22 2020 10:35 pm I think I will stop watching now. it won't matter though because it's so popular in SK. I'm fed up by the fact that not only being a bystander of murders, but Shim Soo Ryeon is busy dating Logan when she never knows how far seokyung has tried to make her incompetency dissapear. she cared so much about the stranger hye in when she doesn't care at all about seokhoon and seokyung

plus, the only sane and kind person in the drama, Oh Yoon Hee, if they made her do murder or other illegal/immoral things, I gave up, no character to root anymore. I'm sad that there's nothing good to watch in Mon-Tues after Kairos ended. but that's fine.

Kim Syierah Dec 22 2020 9:43 pm I hope Yoon Hee is not a killer.. But who know maybe Dr Ha kill min seol Ah because want to make her first love happy .if min seol ah die, Rona will enter that Cheong A school and ofcourse Yoon hee was happy.. And about that necklace, i think Dr Ha accidently take the necklace and that night he was with Yoon Hee and that time Yoon Hee was druken and accidentally take that apple necklace. I hope Yoon Hee was not a killer.. I believe you!!!

hsshdjjd Dec 22 2020 7:46 pm I think the maid is the twin's mother. Just a wild guess tho.

TDS Dec 22 2020 4:19 pm Fighting Logan and Shim Su-Ryeon as best couple of 2020!

chaelixxxx Dec 22 2020 4:12 pm It can't be Oh Yoon-Hee!! Please no, I hope it is Cheon Seo Jin or Dan-Tae. I feel like it may be a drunken dream Oh Yoon-Hee had...

TDS Dec 22 2020 3:10 pm I don't get it Oh Yoon-Hee killed the girl.

She and her daughter need to go!

Dreamhigh Dec 22 2020 12:46 pm I doubt Yoon Hee killed Seol A. someone else will be coming up as a killer.

Lee Wan Joon Dec 22 2020 12:19 pm Seriously I dont think and I hope Yoon Hee is just having an unreliable memory. Someone else killed Seol A.

Dan Tae's former wife was short-haired. Could it be Yoon Hee?

Faye Dec 22 2020 9:10 am Are Rona and Seok hoon gonna be together please let them be please i ship them, please?

Juju Dec 22 2020 8:07 am Did Oh yon hee really killed min soel a!??? I am in disbelief ??why i have the feeling she will end up get involve with joo dan tae

Sakura Dec 22 2020 7:27 am I am so stress if yoon hee was the one kill seol a.. I am done this seried if yoon hee become evil... Damn.. So mad!

Inaya Dec 22 2020 6:53 am I thought the killer was Seo Jin's assistant. He always helps Seo Jin when she gets into trouble especially when she wants to kill someone like she already killed her father. The killer was a man and wearing a suit and maybe it was him.

Mintae Dec 22 2020 6:26 am Joo Dan Tae falling for Oh Yoon Hee? if they make it happen i'm all here for that... just to see how Seo Jin is going to go cray and for Dan Tae to realise that there is no higher or lower human being

I don't think Oh Yoon Hee killed Seol, but i think Eun Byeol or an unexpected hera palace ppl did.

Lowkey shipping Logan Lee and Suryeon lol

And i just wanted to add that i never a saw a character as miserable as Dr Ha LMAO nobody respect him. He is really not quick-witted smh..

Kim Han Na Dec 22 2020 5:03 am i think the one who pushed Min Seol A is Joo Seok Hoo. he heard dantae and seojin's talk that seol a was in the mechanical room. he wants to kill seol a, but then he found eunbyeol was there, so he was hiding. and then when seol a ran away, he followed her, and then they met on the balcony

Caramel Dec 21 2020 11:44 pm I dont think oh yoon hee killed min seol A too.i guess there will be more plot twist.but literally i am so annoyed with ha eun byeol until now.i cant see

Bae Rot Na Dec 21 2020 11:12 pm Yoon Hee's drunk the night Min Seol A was killed so I think her memories are not that reliable. Someone else killed that tutor girl.

Based on the preview for episode 17, Bae Ro Na is going back to school. I wonder what made decide to go back?

Even though almost all of the characters in this drama are hella annoying, what made me stay watching is the ability of the writer to make the story unpredictable!

yoomi Dec 21 2020 11:07 pm Kim So-Yeon's acting is so Bad!

Aria Dec 21 2020 10:09 pm I don't think Oh Yoon-Hee pushed Min Seol-A... I think it's a guy because from what I have noticed, It was a guy wearing white gloves and it had a black sleeve (probably he's wearing a suit because it was a party). And maybe Oh Yoon-Hee was doubting herself because she saw Seol-A and asked help on her but she was so drunk she doesn't even remember.

Eff Dec 21 2020 9:19 pm I don't want to believe that Oh Yoon-Hee was the one who pushed Min Seol-A. It doesn't suit her character development at all huhu! My poor Yoon-Hee deserves more even though her daughter keeps on acting like a brat who was raised into richness.

Rovsky Dec 21 2020 8:13 pm I doubt if dantae and seojin killed seol-a, bcs they are still in the party, watching the fireworks, right?? could be Oh Yoon hee (Push her under alcohol effect) , or eunbyeol,, but can be anyone else too... but idk, my brain hurts and i quite emosional watching this series, lol

Aliff Dec 21 2020 8:09 pm @Lovelyhee I also dont think that she pushed her. She just had that thought in her mind because literally she saw someone pushed her. For me, she is such a good person. Sure it is there is another plot twist.

Lovelyhee Dec 21 2020 6:56 pm I dont think oh yoon hee is the one who pushed her....im sure seo jin came after and pushed her and yoon hee witnessed but in her mind she was thinking about pushing her off.....well that’s what i think xD

sisiang Dec 21 2020 1:53 pm my fav one is oh yoon-hee but it turn out she kill min seol-a...They all are evil...

TDS Dec 21 2020 1:21 pm Wow I didn't see that coming, but it mays sense Oh Yoon-Hee is the killer. Daughter is an idiotic.

   Oh Well she and the others belong in the The Nuthouse.

Dreamhigh Dec 21 2020 11:19 am I have never thought that Kim so yeo is evil actor, I hate her in this drama, she is really bad.

Sarah Lee Dec 21 2020 11:16 am This writer is getting on my nerves... There's a quote "what goes around comes around " If Yoon Hee really murder Min Seol-A, then the ending that I would love to see is Su Ryeon will throw Bae Ro-Na from level 47

Elleanor Dec 21 2020 9:29 am I thought this will end in eps 16.... god i cannot wait too long, too much unrasional story line...

Nansy Dec 20 2020 8:13 pm Tbh there is no character in this serie that is innocent.Everyone of them is a little evil.But idk why everyone is hating on Ro na.I mean yes she is not the best character but her life was really hard and she is only a teenager.

Jay Dec 20 2020 8:36 am All the characters seem unrealistic to me. Even Ro Na annoyed me so much.

Quynh Dec 20 2020 7:18 am As much as i hate all the evil characters, I must say ro na is So Damn Annoying!! She’s such a brattt lmao. I also cant believe they killed off the only likable character in the show i kept hoping she would somehow come back to life :/ Anyway can’t wait for ep 16 I just watched all 15 eps in 2 nights :’)

Hani Oh Dec 20 2020 3:39 am This is my first time watching a drama i wanted to punch ALL of the characters on their faces.. lol this drama needs to chill..

stan enhypen Dec 20 2020 2:51 am ngl lie here ! everytime when min seol a having a hard time, or when she appears i always cried, like really cried having so much tears <\\33 maybe min seol a role goes well with my feeling that's why or she act really well and ate hear role up ??

stan enhypen Dec 20 2020 2:21 am am i the only one here who ship min seol a and seok hoon ??? like I thought he would fall in love at her but it turns out..... that way... <//33 i literally so obsessed w this drama, this is the best year end drama ever

stan loona Dec 19 2020 10:50 pm after watching short clips of this drama, i immediately fell in love with the entire show. if you're debating watching, Don't! Just Watch It Already! the acting is absolutely phenomenal, especially when you get to watch the behind the scenes clips... its just amazing how great they are at playing these roles.. its like each one was made for them. for those watching,, i recommend watching some of the cutscenes on youtube! you can find them under 'The Penthouse Special' from the channel SBS Now!!! that way you can actually see some of the character's developments (esp. if you're a bae rona x seokhun shipper) :DDD

Nirmala Dec 19 2020 8:41 pm I don't want to watch drama until it finishes, but somehow iam watching bits of drama. I came to know that joo seok hyun and joo seok kung are shim ru ryeons biological children? What does it mean? Can anyone tell me whose children are they?

bubble Dec 19 2020 6:06 pm i love it so much waiting for ep 16!??

Penthouseaddict Dec 19 2020 5:51 pm I never thought of watching this drama because of the comments saying it boils your blood.. However I find myself watching it and now I want justice to be served to Joo Dan Tae and Choeng Seo-Jin.. And Bae Ro Na is so annoying as F**k I'm boing 100°c.. Eugene is the best of all she really work hard also Logan Lee and Su Ryeon I like their alliance I hope they really can make Joo Dan Tae and Choeng Seo Jin pay their sin...

Dee Dec 19 2020 4:22 pm Lmao I want to play drink a shot every time a character gets so angry and trashes/breaks everything

Stark Dec 19 2020 2:45 pm This drama's so greaaaattt. I cant wait for the last episode. Hope it will be very happy ending.

Cherry Dec 19 2020 8:12 am I am very happy that Joo Hye-In woke up and Su Ryeon is very happy to have a beloved daughter nearby and healthy and she will protect her very well while she will avenge the death of the other daughter Minseola.

JK Logan Dec 19 2020 6:00 am I'm so excited for the next episode and specially for the handsome and pretty face of Logan Lee, looooogan leeee, I'm fan of you and also for all the main character they put their best act ever. I can't wait to watch the remaining episode,

Mr.B Dec 17 2020 11:57 pm I am interested to know how EP16 will be and how Penthouse will continue with Season 2 and 3.

This is indeed an addictive Kdrama with unlimited plot twists.

Bailey Dec 17 2020 6:58 pm Eugene is the prettiest mom in this drama. Cheon Seo-Jin looks scary at times.

Jasmine Kwan Dec 17 2020 11:27 am I am guessing the end of the drama 1. Ro Na will end up getting the trophy 2. Logan Lee made Joo Dan Tae & Lee Kyu-Jin loose a huge amount from their investment on the redevelopment of Myeongdong project just like the "Yongsan Dreamhub" 3. Yang Mi-Ok revealed to the twin that she is the biological mum 4. I doubt they will be kept behind bars. Most death cases in Korea are concluded as suicide. Sometimes makes me wonder if the korean police officer are actually working. 5. Ha Eun-Byeol and her dad happily settle down in her dad's hometown. 6. Cheon Seo-Jin dream of Cheong A foundation were tarnished, return to the sister when the will of her dad was found etc.

Lalalallaisha Dec 17 2020 6:01 am After ep 15 i only want to know the ending and how the these adult get karma just that ?

Noir Dec 17 2020 1:04 am It's amazing that how writer did the Bae Rona character so annoying. I am starting to wonder whether her character is good or evil. This one make me have second thoughts to have kids.

5_ooo Dec 16 2020 3:42 pm this whole drama makes me angry from head to toe. just the whole plot is just so disgusting and just messes with my mind lol and i mean that in a good way. the actors are so into their roles it's scary. lmaoo i cant wait for this drama to be over... my health is at risk

Charito Dec 16 2020 5:54 am Rona and her mother's characters are the most pathetic characters in this drama. There clearly is no salvaging their roles here and the writers should just kill them off. Rona and her mom are both whiney losers.

eve vicente Dec 16 2020 4:31 am I Told my self not to watch this drama because of so many unfair situation, but i ended up still waiting for the next episode to air. The cast are so good that it become so realistic. Just asking is this really Korean culture to be so mean and high and mighty if your in a status of being rich. Is it also their culture to outcast people or family if you are poor. O hope it is just for this drama and not true

Cast Dec 15 2020 11:45 pm @Min Because it is basically sky castle with more drama and toxicity

Min Dec 15 2020 10:04 pm Why does the plot remind me of Sky Castle

sureerat Dec 15 2020 8:38 pm Also kinda similar to return 2018 - both Yoon Jong-Hoon Bong Tae-Gyu were there working together

sureerat Dec 15 2020 8:37 pm Yoon Jong-Hoon & Bong Tae-Gyu were working together in drama title - year 2018 return.

sureerat Dec 15 2020 8:21 pm Bong Tae-Gyu & Yoon Jong-Hoon previously work together in the drama "Return (2018)" , same kinda role :-) This drama is also kinda nice if you like this drama "penthouse (2020)...

Mr.B Dec 15 2020 8:15 pm @ B,

Agree. Bae Ro Nae is annoying. She was the one that wanted all these.

B Dec 15 2020 4:34 pm Bae Ro Na Is Still Annoying As Frick. the way she talks to her mother “why we in the hera place?” “why did i join the school” she’s so spoiled.

Lisa S Dec 14 2020 11:56 pm Many of us who cant tolerate injustice would dislike this drama. Sadly, some of the bad characters do exist in reality. For example, the orphanage that export children to oversea etc (you can search for "Brother home, Korea" )

In this drama, Logan Lee is the owner of 100 storey Manhattan Tower in New York - the adoptive brother of Seol A.. To avoid future conflict of inheritance, Logan Lee's parents were forced to send the child back to Korea. Despite of that, Logan Lee offers to pay Seol A education, trying to protect her at his very best and comfort her in many ways.

Cherry Dec 14 2020 3:21 pm the drama will not be 16 or 20 each of the three seasons. In the first, there will be 21, in the second and third, there will be 12 each, totaling 45 episodes.

Lovelyhomm Dec 14 2020 3:18 pm Gosh i really hate the kids lol And to make it clear, Logan Lee has to pretend he doesn’t know how to speak in korean so he doesn’t get his cover as the pe teacher reveal. It’s just a cover up......

Happy Dec 14 2020 3:17 pm I understand the fact that I don't like the drama, but to say it's totally bad is not true because The Penthouse has so many qualities. It's not a perfect script, of course, but it's not just for addiction and, anyway, people are loving the drama for their own reasons, there's no need for judgment, everyone watches whatever they want. The drama is unreal because it is makjang, just try to know more about the genre and at the beginning of each chapter there is always a message saying that it is a fictional drama and that is why it is impossible to report the drama to reality. The actors are wonderful and the writer is amazing here. The drama also frustrates me sometimes, but I get the best out of each episode.

TDS Dec 14 2020 2:59 pm Joo Dan-Tae is a Nut and he new wife Cheon Seo-Jin should enjoy the crazy ride!

Fighting for the best of couple characters: Lee Ji-Ah and Park Eun-Seok

icenote Dec 14 2020 10:29 am I really hate Logan Lee. His character adds absolutely nothing to the story. And his crappy English incorporated into his dialogue is absolutely stupid.

He can master a different Korean dialect but his character can't speak proper Korean to the adult characters? Stupid.

Not to mention, he's this bigshot tycoon in the story, but at no point, did he think to help out Seol-ah even if she insisted not to? That's the most convenient plot excuse EVER. Please kill off this character!

Female_human Dec 14 2020 9:02 am dudeeee I thought Yoon Jong-Hoon is in his late twenties, that's why I was surprised when watching him show up as Cheon Seo-Jin's husband.

Nice drama it makes me want to punch everyone hahaha. I guess the best way to drive audiences are making them angry

K-drama lovers Dec 14 2020 6:41 am It's an amazing plot with great actor acting. Nice year ending drama.....

zyrhyl joy palacio Dec 14 2020 2:54 am its a very very nice drama

Alma muah Dec 13 2020 8:36 pm I’m enjoying every bit of it... get miss High and mighty school director to be kidnapped and sacred for 24 hours... she needs a dose of her wickedness...

Zina Dec 13 2020 2:31 pm Mmm peopls said thats this drama similaire to sky castle and class of lies i didt watch those dramas so i can't jugement. But it awsome overacting also i hoped to seok hoon ah and rona ya end up together malgré there problème betwin there parents.thanks

Jane Dec 13 2020 5:59 am This drama although not yet finished, this is full of stress specially eith the adults, but a little sweet because of seok hoon and ro na :) i was shocked that logan lee is the teacher, i thought logan lee us the adoptive father of seul a

blueberry Dec 13 2020 5:38 am When you think about it, this drama is poorly written. The whole thing is basically just the writers adding stressors after stressors, as unrealistic and unpractical as they can be to make sure viewers stay watching. It’s like a bad addiction - you’re just waiting to be satisfied by those scenes where protagonists get revenge. Everything else is just a frustrating mess.

Upi Dec 12 2020 8:19 pm Great drama

rer Dec 12 2020 10:06 am The further I watched this drama, the more familiar this drama to " The class of lies" Korean Drama. Wonder if any notice that too. The different is that the make this drama more luxurious

Venus Dec 12 2020 9:26 am I can't wait for the episode 29!!!!!!! wooooaahhh it's so thrilling! Things are getting excited na! Wooooaahhh

I hope this will have a huge rating. Stay safe and God Bless us all!

Anonymous Dec 12 2020 7:05 am I guessed the killer is joo dan taes bodyguard who committed suicide. He killed her not knowing that min seol a is su ryeons daughter. His reaction was quite remarkable when su ryeon told him that min seol a was her missing daughter.He might killed himself and help su ryeon out of guilt.

Lovely Dec 11 2020 2:11 am I think eunbyeol is the one who pushed seol a off the window that’s why she keeps hallucinating...she might have only remember from when she pushed her off the stairs but i think she came back and chased her orrr....im suspecting drunk yoon hee could have pushed her because of her anger but then she was concerned when she saw seol a on the elevator.....i dont think it’s the parents unless seol a was already pushed off before they can join in on the fireworks....so it has to be one of the kids...

Nomnom Dec 10 2020 6:21 pm I can't wait!! I'm ep14 and excited to watch it. This is my food!! I love shim su ryeon looking so lovely but the madness is inside... girl, seojin instincts are very perfect! And i think joodante still love her wife sojin just fall for him. And the thing that confused me more is the twins because ive watch the previous eps and their father just told that they're not twins so seokyung likes seokhoon as a man? But baerona didn't know how he bullied anna before maybe he'll hate him when this revealed. And logan lee! Hotness damn! His accent his arff everything! Hopefully suryeon and logan can be a love couple here? Shippp is sailingggg

Run Dec 10 2020 7:03 am Dr.Ha please change and punish your wife and daughter you're too weak with them smh. Also Cheo jin now is trying to be Dante next wife lol. I really want to know who is the real killer here and I don't like how Rona get bullied again. Yeah some stuff and plots here and there are easy to read in this week episodes. I recognized the writer's style of writing since I also watched her previous works like Empress dignity/The Last Empress and Temptation of Wife. Both of them are great but, I like The Penthouse more because its faster and shorter than the other dramas. I hope that one or two characters would be memorable as well like Min Sohee from Temptation of Wife. The writer now how to push the actors's potential I think.

dramaboo Dec 10 2020 3:29 am it's funny how the people in the Hera Club was too little compare to the huge penthouse they living in, nevertheless this drama was very exhilarating and the plot was totally spectacular

Naria Dec 10 2020 1:59 am This is the best drama of 2020 imo. No wonder the ratings are so high. Yes, it's crazy & ridiculous but if you give it a chance it's a wild ride.

Lisa S Dec 09 2020 8:55 pm This storyline is all tragic and unrealistic.

Mandy Dec 09 2020 4:20 pm Why everyone in this drama is mean?! Ro-Na and Seol-A , they both the dumbest girls that just digging their own graveyard. Both are very selfish with their goal. Knowing that their path is all dangerous , yet still persistent with their goal.

Hello SBS - this drama is just giving very bad impression of high society in South Korea. they are worse than the communism North Korea

Jasmine Kwan Dec 09 2020 2:10 pm very similar to sky castle....rich parents with their very own way to manage their kids. then a kid trying to be private tutor , just to get close to their biological parent - and then eventually died being thrown out of high floor.

Fifi Dec 09 2020 5:15 am Except the luxurious ambiance and elegant looks, it's not that intresting.. Not my cup of tea. Why what everybody loves doesn't please me???

may Dec 09 2020 4:39 am I get myself drawn to Oh yoon hee more than Suryeon.... Let's see what the next episodes will have in store for us.

Red Dec 09 2020 1:02 am Episode 13 may be disturbing for bae rona but it's for the good. Atleast her expectations from seokhoon were not that much as her mother had from dr. Ha back in their school days and if seokhoon really wants to pursue her atleast we'll get a clear picture that he is not merely ordered by his sister to do so. Although the preview shows that rona is quitting the school but whatever happens if she were to become min seola 2.0 then seola has a rich mother and adoptive brother but rona has nobody except her mother who herself is being used by others.

rainykiss Dec 08 2020 11:32 pm I'm disappointed on the episodes this week. They didn't give enough scenes for the scrub mistress! I want Oh Yoon Hee to be the one to discover what her real job is.

Writernim must hate Bae Ro Na very much lol The girl can't get a break from the craziness! Episode after episode, she's suffering non-stop! hahaha.

Compared to high school kids in Sky Castle, the Penthouse kids are so rotten to the core the writer didn't even give them enough backstory why are they acting so rotten.

Anyway, this so damn addictive i wont stop watching this lol.

Bek Dec 08 2020 11:26 pm Ha Eun-Byeol is so annoying and overacting. Like mother like daughter. But i love this unrealistic kdrama its so exciting, stressful and suspense. I cant wait the episode 15.

Babes Lo Dec 08 2020 11:24 pm This is the most upsetting drama i have ever encountered. Almost everyone is so bad.

dandan Dec 08 2020 7:55 pm Seriously i'm disgusted as hell with eunbyol. She's scaring me Then, why don't suryeon tells the teacher that she's avenged for her late daughter so that they can work together hm

TDS Dec 08 2020 2:47 pm Really the housemaid is the mother of the twins! What a lowlife father.

   Joo Dan-Tae and Cheon Seo-Jin are an excellent match, there both idiotic and mentally ill (Don't care about their kids).

**** Fighting for Goo Ho-Dong and Shim Su-Ryeon Best Couple of 2020******
        Best Actor and Actress of the year

yeet Dec 08 2020 11:22 am The script is just recycling ideas - Bae Ro Na is now being victimised again, which is kind of ridiculous, because like how many times has this occurred and then after the rich kids try to act nice around her again. I feel like this drama is dragging the plot (which I understand cos there has to be 16/20 episodes per season). - Also, Logan Lee and Su Ryeon just need to have a talk, I think Logan is just being brain-dead & kind of ruining Su Ryeon's plans (his revenge bit for Min Seol A is good, the rest of it I'm just like what are you doing?), he just came out of no where and doesn't even know what actually occurred, all he knows is the audio recordings, the calls, the real mum & that she died at Hera Palace, nothing else. - Dr Ha needs to do something about his wife & daughter, all they do is just get angry and shout at each other, which is absolutely childish behaviour.

this is just a rant about what I did not enjoy the plot, but there are still several episodes to go, so anything can change. plus I am not saying that the drama is bad - this is probably my favourite kdrama of the year.

Jovymar Enggay Dec 08 2020 10:10 am The best k drama hahaha I'm waiting for the next episode or rather buy a CD on January 5 2021

From Philippines ???????

Vei Dec 08 2020 9:58 am So happy to see lee jiah again.. And finally she became main lead..

Minn Dec 08 2020 9:03 am Thumbs up..?????? I love the show..?

Joey Dec 08 2020 6:38 am Hmm...tbh, I'm quite dissappointed with the script of the latest episode. The part that the p.e teacher (a.k.a logan lee) promised to make su ryeon's life miserable while recalling the past cruel action oh his own parents. Where is the relevance there??

dutchess Dec 08 2020 6:32 am So,who's the main character here?su ryeon,seon jin or yoon hee?

Cha Dec 08 2020 6:15 am Seo Ryeon is amazing and smart

Cha Dec 08 2020 6:13 am Su Ryeon ????

Marga Dec 08 2020 4:25 am Jusq?!,Ako lang yata Filipino dito HAHAHAHA charott!

cutie Dec 08 2020 4:12 am i simp for logan lee omg

Nielson Dec 08 2020 4:11 am Is it just me or someone also feel something between su ryeon and logan lee? I feel like logan will fell for su ryeon. HAHA

Eirene Dec 08 2020 2:46 am The real killer must be the maid. She throws Anna into orphanage.

Morgan Dec 08 2020 1:52 am PE Teacher =logan lee..omoooo ,, idk fake teeth can really change someone appearance. Btw this drama have 3 season,

Kris Dec 07 2020 10:19 pm I didn’t make it though the first episode. It is just too much. Really an adult can physically assault a child in the teacher’s lounge full of people without fear? Was this inspired by the nut rage incident? I feel people who already a bazillion dollars won’t care if their kids do anything. What is with the posturing? They will just end up abroad anyway and don’t have to earn a cent. Let the rich send their kids to private school only in Korea. Why would anyone else want to be around them? I’d like myth busters to challenging that scene in the beginning with an angel. If parents in Korea got home earlier enough to watch dramas like this they would pull their kids from hagwon and want them live an ordinary life. Gosh.

casa Dec 07 2020 10:16 pm I think the storyline of this drama is pretty good but the arrangement isn't neat. as well as the acting of the actors who are less than inspiring and seem artificial

Charmaine Dec 07 2020 8:09 pm I think the housemaid is the mother of the twins.

TDS Dec 07 2020 6:19 pm Wow we are almost done with the Nuthouse cast.

  There are so many characters in this drama. Can't choose who is the best?

  Oh well what happened to the dog?

Bob Dec 07 2020 3:27 pm OMG - the crazy new woman is the housemaid, WTAF, this drama is full of surprises & she did look very dodgy from the beginning, with an obsession with JDT, DISGUSTINGG

Ashmita Dec 07 2020 5:02 am I think Joo Seok-Hoo is being nice to Ro Na because Joo Seok-Kyung said him to do so... I feel bad for Ro Na

twins just putting an act to Win the trophy

Kk Dec 06 2020 1:27 pm This drama is good but so so soooooo stressful

Anonymous Dec 06 2020 10:15 am Okayyyyyy I think Logan Lee is the father of That teacher ( Goo Ho-Dong or Ragon Lee??) And Min Seol A/Anna Lee!!!Omo omo this kdrama is getting more exciting

Ari Dec 06 2020 3:33 am I believe a lot of the rich kids in Korea behave like the kids in this drama. Many of my friends told me their kids join Korean companies and the bosses behave like joo dan tae too

N3g Dec 05 2020 9:49 pm Anna lee.. ragon lee maybe the teacher is ragon lee.. When min seol a arrasted, they some guy standing behind the window.. i think same guy

Nim-Nim Dec 04 2020 11:01 pm I just remember it now.. Ha Yoon Cheol and Lee Kyu Jim are friends in Return. I forgot if someone was also a doctor. And now, they're here again. ?

Wayer Amin Dec 04 2020 5:55 pm I hope that Seola omma will get her facts straight with Teacher Goo Hodong/Seola oppa/i bet he's Rogan Lee. Now he's tormenting her thinking that she abandones Seola.. huhu. Now the story is completely twisted; each of them has others' secret and all are waiting to launch their weapon. Me waiting for all hell break loose.. Kim Soyeon and Uhm Kijoon really suited to play evil characters. I literally wish they got shot by Yooncheol lol. Lee Jiah my queen, she's just IT in all her dramas :)

Nomnom Dec 04 2020 5:39 am I didn't regret to watch this, first eps are very annoying and childish but as soon revenge starts it gets more exciting seeing the evil disappointed. Love the cast! Hopefully this will be a long drama 20 eps is not enough for me!! Ayayayayay

nununana Dec 03 2020 11:30 pm i hate Rona's character with her mom. I understand that she has dreams and all but with her attitude she's not that different with the rich spoiled brats. She sounds like she's spoiled and i feel like her mom is already doing everything for her yet shes so ungrateful. Also, Seokyung is so hateful i hate her face too Lol. But since this is a drama, it means the actress is doing a good job but ugh shes like LSK character from Chreese in the Trap.

Lmaolol Dec 03 2020 11:47 am Lol, Why there are people shipping/rooting for seok hoon and ro na ? Even if he’s handsome, there’s no way a person will like a bully. Such a turn off. His attitude is still bad. Even if he stop participating in bullying Ro Na, he still participates in bullying other kids, no?

Also, even if seok hoon starting to like ro na, there’s no way seok kyung will stay still, and allow her brother get in relationship with someone, she only relies with her brother, she has a brother complex ?? and she will probably keep on threatening her brother that she will hurt herself??‍♀️??‍♀️

Anyway, this drama is way better without a romance of these brats, esp. ro na and seok hoon. The story is already better with the adults main casts.

Nitt Dec 03 2020 8:27 am Why are you guys saying they that seok hoon and ro na don’t need romance. Yes they do. I know he is a bully but he is starting to realize what he has done and I think he would make up for that. This twin sister never bullied her directly. Really hoping for their love story. I think that would change him.

Ni Dec 03 2020 2:50 am If the killer one of their child, I think it is either seokhoon or seokyoung idk why I think its one of them

Aerielle Lee Dec 02 2020 10:24 pm I like the fact that lee kyu-jin and his wife is slowly (I hope so) opening with Oh yoon hee. Go hoo-dong I think is the same person as Rogan Lee which made me think that Seol-a knows from the get-go that Su-ryeon is her biological mother thus, approaching her with a motive by tutoring the twins. Too bad though that she was not able to tell hoo-dong that her mom is a good person before her death. And what's the ship between Ro-na and Seok-hoon??? they are high schoolers there's no need for that. Seok-hoon opening up and developing friendship with Rona is better i guess. bringing those teenagers together thru friendship and realizing their mistake and atone for it is a better ending. But I sincerely think the ending would be very bad for eun-byul. She would either lost her mind and be in asylum with her mom seo-jin blaming herself for everything. That's her worst ending.

Mariana Muniz Dec 02 2020 6:09 pm when eun Biel's father (sorry I can't write her name) arrived with a rifle I freaked out, I really wish he had killed both of them hahaaha ok, it was the best moment of the whole episode

vipcy Dec 02 2020 5:46 pm They just started highschool and imo they dont need lovelines. Just hope that history wont repeat itself with Rona and Eunbyul!!!

frzzzzkl Dec 02 2020 5:40 pm I find it crazy that everyone is rooting for Ro Na and Seokhoon to get together like Seokhoon didn’t participate in SeolA bullying? He’s maybe not worst of the kids but he’s a bully still. Ro Na and him ending up together wouldn’t make sense and would just prove Korean dramas need to create relationships for no reason. I’ll be very disappointed if they end up together. This is not necessary at all and I wonder if all the people rooting for them here are okay? Would you guys fall in love with your former bully? Come on now. (Even if he never bullied Ro Na directly, he allowed his sister do it so he’s a bully.. again)

joeniid Dec 02 2020 8:27 am Kim Seo Yoen acting is perfect... the rest actors and actress also perfect. love this drama so much

yuni Dec 02 2020 8:16 am Perfect Drama. usually if i dont like the drama will skip some scene but this drama totally perfect. i watch every single minute and really love all acting of the actors and actress .. perfect.

Nine Dec 02 2020 8:11 am The drama reached 21.2% (1st) rating in the last episode and I really didn't expect it and it's really impressive. Initially I was not so excited about the drama and the negative reviews almost made me not believe in the strength of the drama, but I decided to bet on the drama because of the screenwriter and the story really surprised me and the actors are wonderful. I already trusted that the writer would cause great emotions, as well as another drama I watch from her, but in The Penthouse I see the same way of writing, but in a more mature and better way. Your drama has a lot of quality. The SBS broadcaster again winning and winning with writer Kim Sun-Ok.

Farhana Dec 02 2020 8:09 am Is logan lee & gu ho dong same person ??? Feel like gu ho dong isn't just a teacher in the drama... can't wait to see who is actually logan lee n gu ho dong.....this drama is getting more interesting by episode to episodes.....

Cha Dec 02 2020 8:06 am I would love to see Bae Rona and Seok hoon performing together, Rona is singing while Seok Hoon is playing the piano❤❤

Cha Dec 02 2020 7:44 am I love Seok Hoon and Rona. Hoping that they will end up together❤❤

Urso Dec 02 2020 7:40 am I totally agree with you Naria. Ro Na doesn't need romance, but friends. She was naughty and immature but she is not the worst of children and yet she is the most hated. The audience is loving Seok Hoon, but they forget that he was bullying Min Seola and cruel to her and he's not being honest with Ro Na, he's just playing with her. I can't support this novel. I hope that someday Ro Na knows it's just happening and break up with him ... He can really change someday, but I think the public can't forget and forgive the facts so easily..

Gray Dec 02 2020 7:29 am It's getting more and more interesting. Can't wait for the next episode.

Cha Dec 02 2020 6:33 am Love Seok Hoon And Rona?

세라 Dec 02 2020 3:40 am omg i really dont like joo dantae and seojin like really dantae.... you already have a beautifull wife. whaaatttttt and seokhoon is so handsome<3

Naria Dec 02 2020 12:39 am Bro ppl are seriously shipping Seok Hoon & Ro Na? Uh, while Ro Na is bratty does she really deserve the sociopath that is Seok Hoon? Don't forget he bullied Seol A and has no remorse for his actions. Like sure the two of them look cute together and the viewers want some sweet romance in the midst of the toxicity occuring in the show. And sure, he is treating her kindly (for now) but...his twin still has him under her pinky. He could switch sides at any time. Ro Na needs a friend right now, not romance. She should see evidence of his actions.

Bear Dec 01 2020 11:49 pm I love this drama and it's getting more and more interesting. And there are also some moments of humor that I like a lot. But I don't like the sad face of the villains because I don't think it's right to feel sorry for bad people. But that was something I expected. But, I see that the writer, director and the cast are doing a great job and deserve all the recognition that the audience is having regarding the drama. The Penthouse is not a sophisticated drama, but it is a quality drama and has many merits for the attention it is receiving.

Mimi Dec 01 2020 10:42 pm I love seok heon. I cannot wait for next week. Love this drama so much

rihanabilqisbintirizwandean Dec 01 2020 10:18 pm i like seok hoon in real life waaha

syra^-^ Dec 01 2020 9:36 pm waahhh..i like seok hoon and bae ro na Booo EunByeol ...i hope the ending is oh yoon hee married with dr ha..and jeni lee min hyuk friend with baerona

Unknown Dec 01 2020 7:47 pm This story was amazing and interesting?????????? ????????????

yehehe Dec 01 2020 6:08 pm i hope min seol a appear again to make eun byeol confess

Hana lee Dec 01 2020 5:56 pm This drama is the every ipesode is verry breathtaking i fall inlove to all cast specially the lee ji ah and Eugene

Hermz Dec 01 2020 3:33 pm Seok-Hoon and Ro-Na I love their chemistry hopefully Seok-Hoon sincere to Ro-Na, oh man! this drama really unpredictable everytime I watched it I got goosebumps.. hats off to all :-) looking forward to the next episode

Dee Dec 01 2020 1:56 pm Why I feel like that weird teacher is Rogan Lee? ?

Eunice Dec 01 2020 8:27 am I’m inlove with the characters and the drama as well???

Cha Dec 01 2020 7:27 am Seok Hoon and Rona❤❤

Ulil Azmi Nur Mawadah Dec 01 2020 5:59 am The writer is the same as the drama Temptation of Wife, the best makjang drama, no wonder the story is so interesting ???

H Nov 30 2020 11:06 pm Rogan Lee acting nice for revenge when it is his family who dumps Seola. Stupid

Gigi Nov 30 2020 5:48 pm Am i the only one that want real love line between rona and seok hoon? I wish seok hoon really likes ro na sincerely not because of his sister..and i hope those kids getting better not that evil like their parents...i am so hook with the drama..this kind of drama is really amusing and unpredictable love it more than a cliche romantic drama!! I support you writernim to get this until season 3..

lee Nov 30 2020 4:48 pm i dont understand the hate for bae rona. i feel bad for her lol.

Cienna Nov 30 2020 7:58 am Update on my previous comment here. Bae Rona is still so annoying. Come on gurl, grow up already

Rosalie Nov 29 2020 3:42 pm Outstanding!

Davod Nov 29 2020 8:47 am That took a turn. If you're reading the Synopsis... Scrap it. It gives nothing away in a good way... or not.

Joybeth Nov 29 2020 3:15 am I love this drama. Can't wait for the next episode.

klover Nov 29 2020 12:23 am Is uncomfortable the right word to describe this drama? ....

Gray Nov 28 2020 9:13 pm Ep 5 @ 11:00 I find this scene funny. Seok-Kyung made it looks like the water is deep but her twin brother failed.

I thought this is just another Skycastle kind of drama but this is way more entertaining and I love it.

I have to agree Bae Ro Na is annoying little brat.

TRIX Nov 28 2020 8:47 pm Because of its good plot and the ratings are getting higher... SBS will continue it to 3 season? I never regret to watch this drana tbh.

Kimi Nov 28 2020 8:32 pm The last episode was great with 17.4% (1st) rating. Congratulations to the team and the public for their success. I'm really looking forward to the next episode.

Kimi Nov 28 2020 8:27 pm I love this drama as much as I loved The Last Empress. I am satisfied even now the drama is very strong but I see a more mature and well thought out writing I just hope it continues keep it up

Joey Nov 28 2020 5:09 am Bae Ro Na is so annoying. She's such a determined person and very self-centred. She's so unappreciative & rude to her mother. I won't be that surprised if it turns out that she's the one who killed min seol-a to be able to enter the school.

Betty Nov 28 2020 2:17 am I just love the writer ( and sbs) . By watching only 2 -3 episodes I can tell she probably the same writer as Last Empress . The pace is fast with no boring dull moment . Lots of twist , yelling and screaming . and I just hope the writer won’t ruin the ending like LE . :-)

Hana lee Nov 27 2020 10:37 pm This drama is the best I cant wait for the next ipesode finally Oh yoon hye became rich every ipesode is verry exiting the cast the writer and the director congrats for this masterpiece one

Sumayah Nov 27 2020 10:22 pm I just wanna are students really like that? like really? people are that selfish?

Tsk tsk Nov 27 2020 10:17 pm Dollar store Sky Castle!

Kristine Nov 27 2020 12:14 am They love shoving off things from the table!

Liz Nov 26 2020 10:37 pm Penthouse : where their normal way of talking is... Yelling!! ?

Atin Nov 26 2020 9:55 am Logan Lee - Anna Lee?? Hope he will revenge for min seol a.!

Nomnom Nov 25 2020 10:19 pm The more I hate the drama, I just keep watching it. This drama is not boring! Full of surprising scenes just like Anna lee I think lee hi ah keeps her and she's in the bed resting I feel like shes still alive. Its not deserving if they just kill her.

Kimi Nov 25 2020 9:15 am Yes Love Min Seol-A is Su Ryeon's lost daughter. She found this out a few episodes before just try watching it again you can understand this better

Mitsuha Nov 25 2020 7:27 am I heard this drama would be 3 seasons!!GG

Ainanana96 Nov 25 2020 5:24 am i think that the new teacher is related with min seol ah, he just disguised to look indepth about what happened. hope mrs suryeon can gather more people to join her reveal the truth behind min seol ah death. poor mrs su ryeon , she watched how her previous daughter right in front of her in previous ep?

I'm rooting new team of mrs su ryeon and mrs yoon hee(might be the new teacher join later).. can't wait to upcoming ep..it gotta intense..hate that all bad kids ?they potray the character with fantastic acting. i still shock when i know their actual age?

Didi Nov 25 2020 3:58 am I wish I could foresee the future so I could watch the next episodes.

Fanny Nov 25 2020 2:10 am OMOOOOO !! The more i watch the more i get interested in this drama ! Really worth to watch in all episodes until now.. all the cast, the storyline, and all are awesome! Waiting for the new eps till the end ❤

don't dream so high Nov 25 2020 12:25 am you can say what you want, but i'm sure the Penthouse is not a cheap version and the budget proves it lol just be smart and don't cry bloody tears for the success of others ♡

Bea Nov 25 2020 12:25 am Sky is the only Makjang drama you've watched? Guys there are millions of dramas like that out there. If it's better than The Penthouse because they take the trouble to compare it with something inferior. I don't understand, but it is your choice. If you are interested in The Penthouse just watch and relax and if you don't like it just watch another drama of your taste and comment on their page.

Kimi Nov 25 2020 12:03 am I don't like the way Ro Na behaved, but when I see her taking care and loving Sugar, I see that she can change. I hope that she and Yoon Hee manage to save Sugar and I hope that Ro Na respects her mother and takes good care of her. She is a great mother and deserves it very much.

lea Nov 24 2020 11:46 pm love style n looks of lee ji ah!?

mellanie gerochi Nov 24 2020 10:42 pm I hope, this kdrama it has in netflix

Kathlene Nov 24 2020 10:30 pm Go hoo dong is Min Seol A brother in states???

berriemilkshake Nov 24 2020 3:48 pm I haven't watched this drama yet but the synopsis sounds painfully like SKY castle. Maybe the people in the poster are looking up to the high bar SKY castle set lolll

Angel Nov 24 2020 10:28 am I hope there will be redemption at the end. This drama is so annoying from the start. I hope there will be revenge from the poor people so that the rich and bad people will be punished. I can't wait for that, but up until now. I am so annoyed with the privileged and rich people, parents and their children always happy.

jennreveluv Nov 24 2020 6:59 am For me this is a combination of Sky Castle and Class of Lies if you know what I mean kkk

Pudjangga Baru Nov 24 2020 6:19 am Rona and her mother are two of the most pathetic characters ever. Both are so dumb that i wonder how they managed to stay alive this long. Everyone in this drama is evil that i hope there is a satisfying retribution in the end. From the kids to the parents, all of them are bad people. All Rona’s mom does is whine and woo her bitchy and immature daughter.

RainyKiss Nov 23 2020 10:36 pm Maybe the weird looking P.E. teacher is Seol Ah's "brother" from US. He's also the guy who was sitting in Hera Palace lobby when one of the chambermaids found Seol Ah's phone.

Lalalala Nov 23 2020 8:16 pm none of the kids are normal (sighh)

Bay Nov 23 2020 7:12 pm Cheap version of Sky Castle

Rinana Nov 23 2020 6:25 pm I always like mystery drama like this..one drama that can make me breakfree from heartache happenings after watching weekend drama?... why this kind of drama hook ups many viewers? Cause we want to know what happened to those evils people!!! Hope they deserved the worst!!!

I guess the one who killed min seol A is Jo Seo Kyeong..the girl who will do anything just like her father!! She has motive because of hatred!! Not the parents..the parents just tormented seol A..and go back to the party..

Cant wait for oh yoon hee get into hera palace

Cherry Nov 23 2020 8:23 am I agree that Ro Na is unbearable and stupid, she treats her mother very badly and humiliates her, although she is a good mother. Yoon Hee always has to beg Ro Na to accept things and it doesn't always work. Many people are futile and selfish and when they are rich they are even worse and Bae Ro Na will be no different.

Kimi Nov 23 2020 6:15 am I agree with you Lily. The fact that Seo-Jin says he never heard someone say he loves her is very funny. She's the type of person who would pay someone to tell her that lol. I hate this game of pity that the authors have with some villains. I'm not sorry, I'm disgusted and I want everyone to pay for what they did to Min Seol-A

Cienna Nov 23 2020 4:51 am Bae Rona is extremely annoying. Why is she sooooo close minded. When will her character develop ugh. She's extremely self centered, doesn't even think about her mom.

The moms' acting were superb nonetheless.

Joy Nov 22 2020 11:36 pm Sound like SKY Castle >_<

Rosalie Nov 22 2020 3:47 pm Love this drama and stars. If you want reality, turn on a documentary.

Gisele Nov 20 2020 1:44 am I agree, Sugar cannot be overlooked. For me, it is more important than children.

Cherry Nov 20 2020 1:09 am I wonder what happened to Sugar, the little dog Anne. After her owner's death, she stayed around the building and helped Su Ryeon find the watch, but no one stayed with her. She was sick and would need surgery. Anne fought hard to keep Sugar healthy and I'm sad that it didn't work. I hope she stays with Anne's brother or someone who can take good care of her.

Kimi Nov 18 2020 8:13 pm I agree that Anne is dead. Because she died in a very strong fall and even had a funeral. Logically, her future scenes will only be flashbacks and it is impossible for her to appear alive in the following chapters. The drama is really exaggerated and unreal, but that is not why it will become fanciful. That's what I think, but anything can happen lol ?

Christine Nov 18 2020 7:48 pm I know the drama is overblown and we always want to the to discover a turnaround first, but Anne is alive is an impossible fact.

Lily Nov 18 2020 3:36 pm The killer is someone who has not been in focus since the beginning of the drama. For me, Lee Min-Hyeok is the most suspicious now. One thing that caught my attention was Cheon Seo-Jin saying it was the first time I heard someone say that he loves her, lol. I don't want a sad story for her, whatever it is, no one there is unfortunate because they didn't have any compassion for Anne.

I don't want a love line, only Shim Su-Ryeon and Oh Yoon-Hee deserve to have a good man if they want to.

OMG! These people mistreated Anne in every way, I just can't stand them and I want people to see that they, too, will never change.

Honey Nov 18 2020 2:47 pm I saw something like Seol A younger sister. Can someone please explain to me

Atin Nov 18 2020 12:05 pm Anna lee said she has a brother who will revenge when something happen to her. Im curious about her brother. Its the teacher with blue tracksuit her brother who in disguise?

yaga Nov 18 2020 10:56 am Episode 8 did not air because of a South Korea vs Qatar Football Match for those wondering

Aymie’e Nov 18 2020 6:32 am What wrong with today episode? Why episode 8 not air ?

Tashy Nov 18 2020 5:05 am Did episode 8 not air?

nina Nov 17 2020 11:14 pm Han Ji-Hyun is so prettyyyyy

Miao mi Nov 17 2020 9:21 pm @Ono: I feel the same! She's so annoying and she only cares about herself, how people will see her even though I sometimes understand why she does that because she's afraid of being bullied by her friends. But still, overall I dislike her attitude towards her mom.

Helion Nov 17 2020 5:25 pm Knowing the writer and her similer previous stories, most of the evil rich people will be redeemed over small deeds(like showing a little care ) and this is stupid. The kids esp wont get karma and justice wont be served as they deserve shown in the first few eps.

It has 20 eps, the worst of their evilness were shown in first few, rest will gradually built up that they ‘arent as bad’ and at the ending, some will get away. Writer has issuss.

yeeet Nov 17 2020 4:07 pm If I ever spoke or acted like Bo Ra did to my mum, I would not even be here lmao.

Chelsea Nov 17 2020 2:57 pm I don’t get why everyone hates this drama and hates the twin. Personally I am obsessed with the twins dynamic. I love how they protect each other, their close knitted relationship and how they will literally die for each other. Honestly idrc abt anyone in the drama except the twins.

Ono Nov 17 2020 1:11 pm Why is ro na’s Character so annoying , her mother is trying her best for her, but she keeps acting up .. is it just me?

Rating lover Nov 17 2020 11:05 am I have a simple question but kinda annoys me to watch it as a 1st rated serie, when u moved Min Seol Ah (Anna Lee) dead body and get rid of the blood, didn't u have to have scene or acts to the broken glasses too?

Lune Nov 17 2020 9:38 am Only Su Ryeon and Annie are normal and likeable characters here. The most annoying character is Bae Ro Na, her character meant to be sympathized by viewers as hard working, ambitious and talented student. But it turned out as stubborn, selfish and rude daughter who doesn't care about her mother. She is poor and as evil as rich kids. Rich kids being evils is acceptable as they are spoiled by their parents. It would be great if Ro Na dead instead of Annie. I was totally disappointed while watching ep 3 where Yoo Hee thinking about to kill Anna just to make her daughter get an entry to the school. Seriously? ? A single mother who was traumatized by her past is thinking to kill a kid who is same age as her daughter. Ridiculous! Twin being evil isn't even strange, they got the bad seeds from their father and they were badly spoiled and mentally abused. Kim So Yeon is just too good at villain character. I am just watching this drama because of her.

Someone Nov 17 2020 9:06 am Well this drama has sooo many secrets..there will be unexpected story/plot twisted soon..I really know how this writer made a drama..such as the last empress and unni is alive..they have so many plot twisted in those dramas same like this one..be ready for it..Min seol a may be alive because the writer is so crazy to do that..its just my opinion

Jimi Nov 17 2020 8:05 am I just keep watching this drama due to Kim So yeon only since her character totally different from her previous work.

It's so annoying watching Bae Rona keep blame her mom for being poor. I expect Seokhoon will like Rona and want to protect her but he just do that bcoz her sister ask him to do only. One more thing, Joo Dan Tae came from poor family? Curious how he so clingy with his wife.

This drama become more complicated since too many character have their own secret. Not sure when it will reveal.

Yurihan Nov 17 2020 2:24 am This drama is really confusing but i love it I also watch this bacause of Eugene This here comeback on screen I really love this drama so much i love the plot and the story and the character I rate this drama as my #1 drama in 2020

Asha Nov 17 2020 1:47 am Personally I think the last episode gets better. But I don't have a high expectations. Have you watched TWOTM? There was no justice until the very end, and It might not be the best, but it can still be a purpose for a drama to be made. Dramatic stories. I don't have a favorite character in the drama anymore when I used to feel bad for Ro Na, Yoon Hee and Su Ryeon. I can totally see they're going to be like Ji Sun Woo, Kim Hee Ae character in TWOTM. Everyone will be misarable and keep doing things that is out of morals.

Bear Nov 16 2020 8:20 pm well, i think the twins are not going to change. The drama will just try to show that they are young and still have choices and are still human. And I believe that in a 20-chapter drama it would be impossible for the writer to tell the mystery as easily as only in Chapter 7.

Anne, unfortunately, really died because she fell from a very high height and her body was touched and changed many times. An autopsy was done on her body and her mother, Su Ryon, did her funeral and made a necklace out of Anne's ashes. And, anyway, everyone involved in the treatment of Anne's life and death is to blame for what happened to her.

But I think, like another drama I watched from the same writer, I think she can justify that it was just an accident and that everyone was unharmed, but that all of Su Ryeon's anger and revenge for Anne's death would be totally unfair and meaningless. Nor does it make sense to show the worst side of the human being and then with small good deeds that are totally false to invalidate all the bad things they have done.

I will not be impressed by this falsehood, since from the beginning they abused power and people without any regret. I love drama and I have always defended it, but if it continues like that, unfortunately I will have to stop watching because even if it is an unreal drama I want justice and because I cannot stand stories that romanticize and normalize disgusting and cruel people without any punishment.

I want this drama to still have value for me to keep watching

Lovemeu Nov 16 2020 3:18 pm Yes this drama will get u fired up but it is also a good drama....im sure they will bring justice in this drama....i do hope the twin become good people....i feel like anna’s fall was an accident....cant wait for ep 8......seem like maybe anna is not dead...since she said her brother is going to help her if anything happens to her

jinkee mallare Nov 16 2020 11:03 am the story was nice but I dont like the attitude of those rich kids, this drama series emphasize violence and bullying which ia not good for the teenager to watch..I have notice that most kdrama series that Ive watch is more on bullying kind of aspect. Bullying can kill people. Let this series give justice to those whore portrait so that they show to the viewers how bad bullying is.

jan Nov 16 2020 10:34 am i think seok kyung was fighting with min seola and seok hoon saw and tried to break the fight but ended up pushing min seola down?????? the twins is pure evil and just seems so damn suspicious

TDS Nov 16 2020 9:57 am There is only 20 esp of this drama of Nuthouse and their crazy children.

What a concept?

Bear Nov 16 2020 4:07 am I wonder where Ro Na was when Anne died. His presence in the chapter was not indicated and I know that this may be a slight departure from the mystery. But Ro Na's reaction to learning that he won the school seat was totally indifferent. Even though she didn't know it was murder instead of suicide, she could be a little sad.

And another thing that caught me was the fact that Ro Na said she didn't fight with Jennie because she has a powerful family, but with Anne the story changes a lot because Anne was a very poor orphan and she had no one to protect her . Ro Na was in the waiting line and it was impossible for her to be accepted and very difficult for her to take down one of the wealthy teenagers, but with Anne it was very easy, even though she had the first place.

Ro Na is a very dreamy and strong girl, but she is also selfish. She is a very intense person. Or she has what she wants or the rest doesn't matter. That way, she could have acted extremely and killed a person to get what she wants. And he acts rudely with her mother, who does everything for her.

My theory may be exaggerated, but as I am in the vibe of drama, I believe that this fact would be very interesting, because on the one hand we have a rich majority that is super cruel and disgusting and on the other hand we have a minority that is poor and dreamy and a big turnaround if they became equal. But I believe the writer is saving it for when all the characters belong to the elite, which is where bad things are centered and where everyone really is the same.

i wait for him Nov 14 2020 10:37 am Seok jin has not been confirmed.Unfortunately I think it will not be but maybe it's a surprise.I really wanted to see this man handsome acting in this drama ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ

Ask Nov 14 2020 6:05 am Ha seok jin will appearance in this drama? I read some old article that said he will cast Logan Lee?

Soleil Nov 13 2020 11:38 pm Yoon Jonghoon and Bong Taegyu are together again after the drama "Return" hahahaha I miss their messy friendship there. ?

Naria Nov 13 2020 5:15 pm I'm sorry @Lisa but I doubt a person can survive from such a long fall. In drama world, it's possible to have sad endings. The best possible ending for Seol A is for her mom to successfully avenge her death and for the Hera residents pay for their crimes.

Lisa Nov 13 2020 3:36 pm Dont you guys think the writer killed Seol A’s character too early? I think shes still alive! That maid knows a lot i think. Maybe she will be siding Su Ryeon later. And that phone... why is it in the ventilator & found after 2 months? I think Seol A is still alive! You cant just die like that without happy ending!

Cecily K. Nov 13 2020 4:21 am It was hard to watch the first episode but it will grow on you as each episode goes by. As much as I agree that there aren't many likeable characters here (specifically the children), I don't understand why some people expect this obviously unrealistic and exaggerated drama to teach some valuable life/moral lessons. Unless they have ever marketed Penthouse as some socially woke drama before, then this drama does its job right. I personally think this drama fits the need for some mindless entertainment. Penthouse is just that typical full length TV dramas squeezed into just 20 episodes with better cinematography. Lower your expectations, remove that Sky Castle imagery from your head, and you'll able to enjoy this drama just fine.

47ik Nov 12 2020 5:02 am Kim so yeon is the centre problem of eugene and lee ji ah..

But, i'm still watching this because of her

Yung penthouse Nov 12 2020 1:29 am @Me Thats not her kids so i see why she don't care. Real question is who is the twins real mom? Su husband must have killed her or she died during childbirth. The maid might be the next person to team up with Su or die, since she told the girl twin, su wasn't her mom.

Run Nov 12 2020 12:18 am I just finished ep 1-4 last night it's quite fun to watch I like it. Anyway I think this drama wants to show us that some good characters also showing their ambitious and stubborn sides of them. Suryeon and Yeonhee also made mistakes as a parent. I'm really annoyed with all the teenagers even Rona is really stubborn but that's how because they're really competitive. Seol-a might dead but she was so smart, I bet she knew more than she should have. Well I'm really excited to see the next episode!

Len Nov 11 2020 11:08 pm am not sure i can continue to watch this drama because of too much anger, shouting and disrespect to parents. finesse is lacking much, depicting the super rich to be lowly in character.

Ega Nov 11 2020 9:08 pm Good drama! But make me headache and stress

Diana Nov 11 2020 4:39 pm Ok why is everyone screaming their lungs off in this drama?? No class at all when the writer wrote it. Story was interesting but how its done just aint it lol

Anna Lee Nov 11 2020 12:18 pm In my opinion, I appreciate the writer who came up with an idea of highlighting some rich people who abuse power. It's a realistic topic. I also highly appreciate ALL of the actresses and actors in the drama. No one makes me uncomfortable with their acting. Especially Kim So Yeon, I was head over heels for her before this but I questioned myself "Is the girl in penthouse really her?" Because her acting is unbelievable (in a good way). But I don't like that they ignore technical things (CCTV, School Comitee Witch Hunt) in childish way. I know some people said the drama focuses on making people feel irritated, so that kind of detail isn't important. But I have seen some movies/dramas that did fine with smart tricks to cover technical holes. I think they could have avoided the hate if they cover the things better, I find other plots in the drama believable Everything is perfect (how the corrupt principal will decide anything that gives him money, hera palace have that much authority to abuse power, etc), except those that I have mentioned above.

Kpopers&kdramaloverrrr Nov 11 2020 12:13 pm I really like this kdrama..I love the way Kim Sun-Ok writer thinking to made this story more interesting..

KDramaAddict Nov 11 2020 6:49 am I watched only 1 episode, the setting and the wardrobe is kinda tacky for me, because they always mention A lot of money but doesn't match with the setting. What bother me the most from episode 1 is they live in such a luxurious place, but people who don't live there can barge everytime, like, wtf? Is this some kind store or public space?

How i like that Nov 11 2020 4:53 am OMG! The rating was great, 6 episode first in Seoul! Congratulations Penthouse team ෆ

me Nov 11 2020 2:57 am I want to like su ryeon (since everyone said she is the only good person here) but her absent on twin's life make me so angry. Why she pretend to be a mom if she cant.

Carla Nov 11 2020 12:16 am I felt so devastated after soeul ah death i mean she was the only normal character and they made her die like that and they didn't give one chance to her mother so that she could raise her don't know what's on writer's mind but still watch the drama how her mother gets the revenge for her.....

Cindy Nov 10 2020 4:01 pm The people in the show are all sooo cruel!!! Its a kind of show that you will hate but still ending up watching it. Guilty pleasure. Just don't take it too seriously. Don't get too emotional. Tbh i hate all the characters but still I'm hooked

Anonymous Chic Nov 10 2020 12:36 pm Although it's about the life of people in the penthouse, I noticed that it really has a sky castle, the world of married and graceful friends vibes but with more murders, lacks class and nastier kids. But, because it's a slow burn story I might just continue watching it after it gets to middle part and it's really makjang but because I don't watch kdrama that really focused on romance anymore. This kdrama will do, I just hope it will have a good turnover soon or the murderer would be really shocking and unexpected.

Jungtae Nov 10 2020 10:14 am To the people who think this is unrealistic, it is not, and that's the point. This is satirical. If you're looking for realistic dramas, go somewhere else. You just don't appreciate the artistry of this drama. Of course we know there's CCTV, medical records, police reports, but that doesn't matter because this is meant to portray something, and not to be taken literally. Gosh.

Lilian Nov 10 2020 9:48 am @aaa and @joey ♡

I don't know why some people say it is an unreal drama when we see the same thing in another drama; evil is evil, regardless of anything.

Of course, we don't like to imagine it being real, I am ashamed and disgusted when I see the president of my country being the worst person for to represent; but nobody has the power to represent several people, not even this drama.

In Penthouse, evil is served as a banquet, so much so that it makes me wonder if I keep watching. I continue because I want to see justice, even if it is unreal.

But we cannot say that there is only evil, but also sadness, madness, ambition, revenge, regret, and there is an incredibly talented girl with a mother who had her dream ripped from her hands and her beautiful voice was torn as if it were nothing. There is also a woman who had her daughter killed and humiliated by people around her.

Life is no different, obviously it is not about being rich or not, but have you ever wondered if this evil of Penthouse is a reality and you keep your eyes closed?

Joey Nov 10 2020 8:41 am Lol..people are mad because all the rich characters are evil. That's the whole idea of the plot. That's why it's called fiction. And I don't understand why people go like" maybe this is how South Korean culture is" ??? Sounds so childish. Have you not seen any villaint characters in other dramas/movies somewhere else? Take pulp fiction/the godfather for example. For me, this drama is good. I can't wait for the next episode.

Snappin Nov 10 2020 8:27 am I know this drama is kinda hyped in Korea but I am gonna pass after watching 2 eps. I cant watch this drama, everyone in this drama is so freaking toxic it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I loved sky castle cause it was interesting with all the metaphors and characters balanced out with both good and bad.

Al Nov 10 2020 7:49 am 1st episode review How come the discipline violence committee of ordinary school decided to remove a student without any evidence from hospital or school doctor checkup. People can simply check someone throat when they vomit blood. Yoon He should handle everything with professionalism not by screaming and kicking. I know this drama is about classical music but you don't need to scream all the time. Just slapped people with your brain. I'll keep watching to know whether the character become more intelligent or simply doing revenge with empty brain.

Aaa Nov 10 2020 7:42 am People who think this drama illogical surely doesnt know about life. Even though Im just 25, I met many cruel and selfish people many times. I cant enter prestigious university not because Im not good enough but because im poor and have no internal connections. I met university colleagues grades far lower than me but managed to get governmnet job or highly paid job in companies because their parents are rich and influenced. I met cruel manager in my first job who doesnt know meaning of humanity. I have work colleagues who barely do any task at workplace but get the praises for my hard work. And many more

Kimsoyeon fan Nov 10 2020 5:38 am All actors and actress acting very nice regardless of story line.Especially I watched it because of Kim So Yeon,she is my all time favourite. In this drama I hate her so much that means her acting excellent. Lee Ji-Ah more beautiful and attractive than she is in spy series.

Tomato Nov 10 2020 2:05 am This is bullshit. Only 4 episodes but it is soooooo not realistic Although many great actors are in it but the storyline is urghhh!

I wonder what the actors felt when they acted.. haha

I love it but i hate it Nov 10 2020 12:15 am The flow, the setting, idea is all good. But i agree the story is too unlogical. How could everyone (ChungAh classmates/mother committee) even the stranger walk pass in the drama were all cruel? Not everyone is like that lmaooooo

I wish Eugene character be more professional in handling problem. She was too emotional in every single thing (the writer purposely make everyone seems dramatic) n i hate about ??

Jenny Nov 09 2020 6:34 pm Lost interest at ep 4. To many plot twists, and shocking moments that it doesn’t have that impact anymore. Idk how many plot twist/moments u can get in the first 4 eps but there u have it. Does anyone feel like it’s gonna shock u anymore or have that impact the next time? Not for me.

Won Nov 09 2020 6:01 pm This drama is all over the mess. I searched up the writer and shes known for exergerated plot but this is top of the cake.

To much going in early episodes and 90% of it doesnt make sense. how is the open murder that everyone couldve seen, caught on CCTV hidden like that? that everyone can see, in a 10th floor top security penthouse with CCTV yet only people that saw it and got rid of it were the evils one? How did no one notice?? Made me laugh how stupid this was. Trying to hard. And they got back in time for their party in under 10min and laughed it off. That. Was. So. Dumb. Unrealistoc. Its so dumb but u wanna keep going just to see if it actually has scene that make sense loool

Its gonna be popular cause this drama just makes u mad. Anger. But thats what keeps the viewer keep going. The nonsensical.

Dreamhigh Nov 09 2020 10:28 am I am watching this drama because I like the actors and actress in this drama but I don't like plotting of the story, Those rich and bad peopled can do anything and the worse thing is their kids are terrible. Hopefully, no rich kids are followed of this drama.

Bear Nov 09 2020 7:35 am Anyone watching the drama just needs to be smart enough to see that, at Penthouse, the story doesn't positively empower villains. On the contrary, it shows how disgusting and scary they are. It doesn't even define that all the rich are bad. One example is Su Ryeon, who is rich and not a bad person. Anyone can understand very well that the drama is focused on extremely rich people who are selfish and use power to destroy people and get what they want. The problem is not with the characters or the drama, but with people who don't know how to interpret what is right and what is wrong. And I also believe that the exaggerated and unreal drama cannot affect teenagers and the rest of the audience. Mainly because fiction doesn't have that power, but reality does and that's what I would worry about.

Evil? Nov 09 2020 3:42 am Have you ever wondered if at Penthouse Shim Su-Ryeon was forced to choose between the life of a twin and Min Seol-A without knowing that she is his biological daughter and for his own benefit? Lol there yes, I would be impressed with the evil.

Pan Nov 09 2020 12:44 am Don’t like it because it’s too extra and it promotes the stereotype that all rich people are bad people.

@commenter below mocking people for not liking the drama. I think people are free to say if the drama is to their taste or not. It’s an open platform to comment. The writer obviously made the characters so vicious to provoke the emotions of its audience. Personally I laughed while watching this because it’s very stereotypical and expected. Of course some people are mad because of how evil the characters are so stop attacking them for it. That’s obviously what the writer wanted to help promote the drama and give it its high rating or whatever. I’m out anyways. It’s hilariously not my taste.

JokerMCGamer Nov 08 2020 11:51 pm I can't wait for the episode 11, for the people who easily get triggered by some people this is the best i swear you can burst out your anger to those pips right here, best actors!

Jjivler Nov 08 2020 3:38 pm This series is worth watching regardless of some bad reviews down there. If you're looking for a drama that is for an adult that is about social injustices and prejudices, you should give it a try. The actors are brilliant, they did well. Some of the characters might get into your nerves but the plot twist is to look forward to, that's one thing that would keep you up with this drama.

Yung Penthouse Nov 08 2020 11:16 am The husband mafia scene was so ridiculous I laughed. This drama is so entertaining so far the wife of the mafia husband is what I’m rooting for. I have a feeling they’ll give us a sad background for Seo-Jin to justify her being cruel. Yes some rich Koreans behave like penthouse, just some years ago, a chaebol got in trouble for nutgate and etc. It’s a normal occurrence of a country build on lookism & social hierarchies.

The penthouse Nov 08 2020 8:08 am I’m in opinion, this drama is alright. I like it. But I think what it needs to improve is the plotting of the story. It’s kinda all over the place and I was kinda confused at first but I get it. I cant wait till ep.5&6!❤️

Lilian Nov 08 2020 6:11 am I laughed a lot. The constant negative criticism makes me believe that people don't like the drama itself, it's just a jealous child.

Just stop, take a tranquilizer in the milk or play with your perfect toys.

The drama is intense, the acting is IMPECCABLE and no one is forced to watch. Is someone compelling you?

With only 15% of ratings in 4 episode, it is very difficult to agree that this drama is bad. Because if so, I can say that any drama that broke a record is just pretentious.

The funny thing is to hear from people who do not live in South Korea say that it is not realistic. Honey, the people there are extremely prejudiced and futile, so if they are rich they become much worse than they think. It is obvious that there are exceptions and we have 4 episodes of 44 (with two seasons), some good people will appear.

As Blackpink says "You are not worth my love, if you just love to hate me"

Cherry Nov 08 2020 5:13 am "how bad is the performance of the actors?" You must be really very confused lol

And I was like, why you so obsessed with me? Nov 08 2020 5:09 am there are a lot negative reviews here but the audience has grown. You are watching only to hate but you are contributing to the success of the drama hahaha thanks for the dedication

mia Nov 08 2020 4:52 am Honestly, I had such expectations with this drama since it has the same vibes as VIP and sky castle which pretty much an excellent dramas ive ever watched. But, nah, there is something off with Penthouse that make me go ???? in every scenes. Probably because of the confusing plot, inconsistent pace and bad acting. The acting is really bad to the point im not sure how to feel toward the plot. It does look promising but it takes away the exciting or the good impression because of the story flow and actors. Too bad that the cinematic is really good, really potrays the richs

Bear Nov 08 2020 4:00 am Well, I think that being good or bad depends on each person, and not because they are rich or poor, and it does not depend on the city, state or country that the person was born. Mainly because bad things happen everywhere. In Penthouse the characters are radical and the situations are extreme because the writer likes to provoke strong emotions and is a world of fiction. There is no way to relate most things to reality. But, in part, I see some real elements: those rich who always use their power to get what they want, always hurting people, committing crimes and escaping unharmed. But for the poor, life and laws are things that work differently. While the poor are people who can actually have a job and a place to sleep (with exceptions, of course), but for the rich population, they are people who cannot dream big things even more about something that the poor cannot enjoy because these things do not belong to your social class. The drama has been great for me. I see reality in the work of the actors and in the way I feel the emotions. Anyway, I believe that these are easy questions for the public to think and solve, it is just a form of interpretation.

Lin Nov 08 2020 12:14 am Love this show.

47ik Nov 07 2020 6:25 pm Dear writer-nim

I watched the last empress, and i thought, "ah...i don't like such kind of this drama"

And now, penthouse is still same.. it's full of evil characters. Do rich korean people behave like that?

Why do i think the rich people here are like uneducated people.. so noisy, i think.

Lili Nov 07 2020 5:27 pm Omg it's so bad the worst drama 2020

J Nov 07 2020 12:05 pm I think in this drama was realistic in south korea especially when you are poor and powerless. Im shaking while watching this, idunno why. My feelings about korean is now messed up but noy all of the, im talking about those people who used their power to the people who are powerless. We all deserve equity.

Miss Mong Nov 07 2020 9:26 am I believe the plots in this drama was really realistic in South korea. You'll getting bully if you're ugly and poor. This plot twist is more crazy than SC for me. And i cant wait to watching till the end ?

What even Nov 06 2020 8:54 pm This is the ultimate makjang. I love the actors and actresses and the plot seems good but how it is potrayed and acted out by the writer is questionable. The fact each charater is immoral and it gets worse each ep. By the time revenge come near the end, i honestly would already be fed up. Even revenge wont satisfy me, its something that is so unrealistic, idc what even happens.

Nope Nov 06 2020 8:30 pm I mean it's not meant to be realistic, however, the acting is so realistic that this show makes you go "man, I hate rich people".

It is kind of misleading because most were hooked on the first big scene in episode 1. We see Anna Lee being pushed off the balcony to her death, however, most of the story focuses on characters we don't care as much about. Adding the contrast with the lower class was somewhat smart, it separated this drama from just filthy rich to a mother's love for her children.

Quite frankly, there isn't a motive behind some characters. Some are semi-redeemable rich people like Lee Kyu-Jin, who isn't necessarily as corrupt as he is childish. However, the male characters are harder to understand, which I get is the point.

The acting is amazing though. I hate all the rich people which I assume was the intention. The affair seems realistic enough that my blood boils. However, I understand that the plot and setting aren't realistic. I wish the protagonists were more strong-willed, like Eugene!

Overall, is it realistic? No. Is it the best plot ever? No. Could one argue that this drama is very bad? Of course. Do I like it? For now yeah, the hate I have for these characters is very real and that means I connected it to something.

Heyoen Nov 06 2020 8:26 pm This drama went alll out with the madness.

The ultimate over the top.

Its a mess.

Tuto Nov 06 2020 8:22 pm This drama is pure evil. Every character is a monster. The only good character was inhumanely murdered.

I fr even had to go puke cause thats how disgusted i was. Defo Dropped.

Bear Nov 06 2020 7:36 pm I really understand how people want the drama and the characters to be real. But Penthouse is not that kind of drama. So, empty your mind of your reference drama, as I believe that you cannot enjoy any drama you watch if you always want the story to be similar to others that you watched and were frustrated because the result you received was not the expected one. . .comparisons are really unnecessary and tedious

Foanca Nov 06 2020 6:02 pm Every characters are over the top and the writing is so bad. The plot was good but they way they executive is to much. The writer has a thing for horrible rich people to get their way or redeemed at the end? Thats so not right and not a good message at all. The only decent character i liked and they already gone in the first few eps.

Teoa Nov 06 2020 5:16 pm Wait im confused...is this drama supposed to be popular? I watched it and stopped at ep 3. Its just so bad???

eve vicente Nov 06 2020 4:57 pm I started watching this kdrama but stop on ep 3. I am wondering if the Korean culture is really like this. If your poor you will not have opportunity on any field even you're to talented. I don't want to mixed my emotion with the thing i admire. I'm so engrossed with Kdrama Kmovie kpop kactors and actress. But watching this drama might change my interest so i stop watching it. Anyways all actors and actress are so good that it was so realistic.

Ron Nov 06 2020 3:28 pm Went into this drama expecting something like sky castle which was wholly enjoyable( rewatched it 3 times). But penthouse? No where close as sky castle. Its just so unrealistic, drama on drama , every rich character are evil and getting their way in the begining, coruption everywhere and the good characters are potrayed to be poor and naive, victoms. This is utter rubbish. Its so unrealistic and cringe, they might as well add some random fantasy/supernatural elements to it to cause thats unrealistic it is. Im hoping it gets good but if first 2 eps is like this, i rlly doubt it.

Heyitme Nov 06 2020 2:47 pm I wished there would be a few good rich characters in this drama....but they made all the rich evil and mean...Like they are all super rich, Why do they have so much time to worry about the poorer class lol it’s a good drama but i wished they would have changed some of the rich’s personality in this drama though...This drama along with all the other kdramas i watched make me think that in SK anyone with power and money can get away...People easily look down and talk back to these cops and detectives but here in America we cant do that lol...

gabi Nov 06 2020 9:12 am Injustice is everywhere, it will be a sad and revolting reality if none of them pay. Everyone must pay.

I think Joo Seok-Hoon was the killer, he's like his father. Ha Eun-Byeol saw the moment which is why his mother wants his silence. Oh Yoon-Hee was also at the crime scene, but I think her will sell his silence on behalf of his daughter.

Many chapters are still missing, and I'm obsessed.

Lisa Nov 06 2020 9:00 am Well, this drama is not culture in your opinion. But there is an industry that has been cultural with its zombie and wizard films, but why can't an unreal drama be? I can not understand

justice for minseola Nov 06 2020 8:34 am why people keep talking how this drama doesn't make sense like it's the first drama that doesn't make sense??? literally there are only like 30% realistic dramas out there..others are all fictional..you can complain how crazy this drama was written but to complain that it's not logic is funny..if you don't like don't watch

Rainbow Nov 06 2020 7:31 am I think this Bae Ro Na act too much.. I don't like her character in this drama. Feel so annoyed of this character and make me stop watch it on Episode 6.

Vee Nov 06 2020 6:54 am About horrible parents and their more horrible kids. Money can't buy class. But i see this kind of situation in other kseries too. Culture? Where people with no power and no connection just can't catch a break.

Nine Nov 06 2020 2:25 am Hello, dear Vicky, dramas don't build a good or bad person. You talk about who likes this kind of drama is superficial, but I believe there is nothing more superficial than basing principles and social life on dramas with fictional stories. What builds a person's good character are the values and not the scripts of a drama. Loooool you really traveled. I can like the writer for several reasons. I praised her not because she has been writing for a long time, but because she has a talent. Unlike you who prefer to inconveniently criticize the work of a great writer who is clearly not potentiating evil and showing how bad these people are and who only believe in a reality invented by themselves. And it's all fiction because you're trying to take it seriously. My God, that perspective. You can watch any kind of drama and in no way am I going to define it or judge it publicly. You may not like or agree with Penthouse, but you cannot judge people for enjoying the drama. Stop watching this drama and look for another one to enjoy. Nobody is forcing anyone to stay.

You talk about the industry and how it can influence young people, but as you see, the industry is surrounded by bad people and you didn't become like them because you watched one of your dramas or movies. Do you agree? The criminals are being applauded by the adult audience and advancing to the next generation, that's what worries me and that's why I don't see their films, series, dramas and don't even listen to their music.

I'm a hypocrite, but I try to change by rejecting all of that, everyone in the industry who does that. You're just trying to be superior, but believe me, you're just as superficial and disgusting as they are. Am I a nuisance to society? Look at yourself and what you think. You must be very desperate for attention. Don't try too hard

Nine Nov 05 2020 5:16 pm well, this drama may look like a sky castle, but it is not. It is a remarkable style that the writer likes to write. Just research your successes and you will see. and it's easier for sky to get inspired by her hit dramas than for Penthouse to get inspired by Sky, she has been writing brilliantly like that for years Looooool. Negative comparisons are so unnecessary ...

BruceWayne Nov 05 2020 3:36 pm A lot of plot points seem to be directly inspired by Sky Castle however the real reason why this Drama is so unenjoyable to me is that basically almost every character is so wretched and despicable that watching it just makes me upset. I don't know if this Drama is supposed to be a critique of capitalism but if that's the intention then the packaging really sucks in my opinion

Nine Nov 05 2020 2:40 pm This drama is exactly what I expected. I like how the writer is true to what she feels. She's crazy and I think that's totally incredible. I was shocked at times, but it was as I imagined and expected. This drama is very strong for strong people, burns a lot and I love it ♡

Gabi Nov 05 2020 7:20 am I like the drama, it's my style. Everyone's suspicious. The maid recording at tennis time was weird ?

Smolbean Nov 05 2020 7:03 am I stan all the rich families in this drama. OYH and her daughter BRN keep messing with their own enemy then play victim. Stupid.

anonymous Nov 05 2020 6:53 am tbh,this drama is really bad. its too much tho. if you guys compared this drama with sky castle.. ugh girl, hell nah.

sady Nov 04 2020 10:59 pm I glad Shin Sung Rok drop this drama and act on Kairos for god sake. I know this is drama but i think the scriptwriter way too much and crazy writing this drama. It is so far away from Sky Castle. Su Ryeon only the good ones here. Bae Ro Na? Annoying . Other characters - i cannot believe what is going on in their head.

rehes Nov 04 2020 10:54 pm the drama too dramatic and not make sense. Don’t understand why the rating so high maybe people love watching mak jang dramas. Every character are so badd except Su Ryeon.

Mango Nov 04 2020 5:58 pm But this Drama tho!!! Lol!! The writer decided to go all out with the madness!! Hihihihi!!

Lulu Nov 04 2020 9:53 am I started this drama with a lot of apprehension because of the writer, as I never liked any of his dramas... And after 3 episodes the result was not so good, I'm still not a fan. The concern I have with this particular drama is not really the violence itself, but the excessive choice to use it to shock and increase ratings, without any real need. The scenario is mediocre, in the same vein as his sister TLE. It's pure Makjang, so don't expect a script class or complicated characters. Here is the Manichean and childish vision of a world; people are either bad or kind and naive; no grey zone... For those who compare this to Sky Castle, I feel like saying it's far too flattering for this drama.

Jing Nov 04 2020 7:18 am My fragile heart can't take this drama anymore. Too much evilness. Poor seol ah

_Hunter_X_Hunter_ Nov 04 2020 1:29 am It is a fun drama...People who are critical of this drama should understand that is fiction not a real life documentary...the romcoms or melodrama that we see in Kdramas too don't happen like 99.99% times irl same is the case here...try to separate fiction from real life

shaqkiddo Nov 04 2020 1:07 am Heart Attack!! Recommended Drama. My Blood Pressure High. This is Devil Drama. Please Put Away Fragile Things When Watch This Drama

Vicky Nov 04 2020 12:58 am Im wondering if korean rich people behaves like this? I don’t think so, and no rich people could do such things. Hope they could somehow find ways to modify the plot and if not hope korean film industry could ban this if they cannot change the unrealistic imaginations of the writers. Hope the artists that is included in this drama could have reviewed the script thousand times before they join this project. Really this is too far........no good morals, no good influence to get....only negative things..... tsk tsk!

Vicky Nov 04 2020 12:37 am They all look like stupid, behaves like stupid..... nothing valuable.... very cheap!!!! Hope Eugene reviewed this 10 thousand times before she accepted the project, there‘s a lot of new dramas now that are exemplary and high regard. Are rich korean people behave like this??? I don’t think so! Korean are good people! Hope this drama be ban to be viewed on air. Destroys korean values!

Vicky Nov 04 2020 12:23 am The veteran actresses should have Chosen a better comeback project, why did they accept this? Yes life is unfair, but people in real life are still human being and you cannot find such kind of person in real world. Maybe the writers of this had a very cruel experiences in life to project this kind if evil behaviors. Hope korean film industry could filter projects that adds moral value to the viewers. This has a bad implication to rich people. Its unfair to them to be portrayed as very low as this.

zms Nov 03 2020 10:24 pm why this super rich character are so evil, stupid....?

why this low class character is so stupid...?

Kila Nov 03 2020 9:28 pm its make me angry thinking how rich people can do anything just because only they have power of money ~ ??

Kila Nov 03 2020 9:26 pm its make me so angry thinking how evil rich people can do ?

Rocky Nov 03 2020 6:46 pm I'll just wait for this to finish and read reviews from the viewers. I learned my lessons with past SBS dramas, as time goes by SBS dramas are not that good anymore. If this is like Sky Castle, then they should exceed my expectations. Are the characters really that evil? Because in Sky Castle, some may be evil like Yum Jung Ah's character but at some point, I was able to understand her. I hope it's the same with this drama.

Odessu Nov 03 2020 5:27 pm These immature adults and kids act like some lower class is gonna steal their life and money....at least make this drama more realistic..why make it seem like they have no life and get upset when someone poorer is better than them....

Tgelover Nov 03 2020 5:18 pm Tbh they all sus, even if they didnt push her..and i feel like it may have been an accident....look like Yoon hee’s coat from the wrist when anna fell..i think something happened with anna and one of the kid and yoon hee tried grabbing her....

Riena D Espeña Nov 03 2020 10:13 am So happy to see you again in kdrama land Unnie Eugene???

Nana Nov 03 2020 8:19 am All of the cast here is crazy this is the worst drama I've ever watched if the high society is really like this then I don't wanna be one..there is no single scene that can make me laugh all i feel while watching this drama is anger i want to kill all of them they are all idiots brats stupid!!!!ihate this drama pass

Chen Chen Nov 03 2020 4:20 am I love this drama so much ... ‼️ Its so exciting & waiting for next episodes.

zi Nov 03 2020 1:16 am worst drama evil character is glorified and protagonist of the show another rip-off from skycastle in very bad way. i give this drama ?????

ok Nov 03 2020 12:49 am okay mfs who cares if it's like sky castle? anyways this drama is fun and I'm excited for new eps! It's honestly the only interesting on going drama that's saving me from this bore ???

sophia Nov 02 2020 10:50 pm I feel like Min Seol-A is Shim Su-Ryeon's real daughter since she's an orphan and since Joo Hye-In isn't her real daughter. It'll be real sad is Min Seol-A is really her real daughter since she dies in the 1st ep.

47ik Nov 02 2020 10:50 pm People said it has same vibe as sky castle. But, after watching epsd 1-2, sky castle is far better. I got "message" from sky castle. The children had better attitude as well. The parents were more elegant. The script of sky castle drama was well written, and made us currious in what happened next.

Nuthouse Nov 02 2020 10:07 pm Rich, Psycho, Affairs, and no conscience whatsoever. It I wanted to view something stupid this is in the group with My Wonderful Life!

  Nuthouse...The Penthouse!   What is the difference?

 I like the Birth Center, Zombie Detective, Start Up and Kairos.

   Wasted Talent in the actors.

Charles Nov 02 2020 7:20 pm This feels like this drama is trying to be the next Sky Castle. Hope it gets there. So many top actresses here

Cbhjj Nov 02 2020 7:03 pm I dont really lime this drama but I’ll continue watching it to see if there is some justice....like i font understand these rich immature adults in this drama. They have money and power, it’s super easy for them to get their kids in whatever school they want, why do they need to mess with the lower class like hello. At the end of the day you’re still rich...

notafan Nov 02 2020 11:16 am This drama is too...drama. I have only watched two episodes and already feel furious. The characters are super fake. Where in the world children were allowed to treat their peers like that? Where in the world that people treat people like that? I know they are ultra rich people and I see obnoxious people in real life. But is this how people really act? I think all the actors was great that’s why I was able to hate this drama so much. It is not an easy drama to watch. Everyone of them was shouting and the sounds of symphony were even make me more angry with the drama. The actors were so great I don’t want to watch this drama anymore.

Krissy Nov 02 2020 8:02 am Whatever the plot is same with the sky castle or not, the actors and actresses in this drama have very good acting. I really hope this drama will be famous in Nationwide and get high rating.

Azman Nov 02 2020 12:54 am I hope this drama top 5 nationwide

Anonymous Nov 01 2020 5:47 pm I don't even like all the rich kids as they are so rude. I hate them and it makes me hate them in real life.

Syrubi Nov 01 2020 9:24 am Nothing new with the story line. Its a mix of drama Return and Sky Castle..

y Nov 01 2020 7:29 am is it just me or does anybody else feel/see the tension between Min Seol-A and Joo Seok-Hoon?

ABC Nov 01 2020 1:24 am I hope Lee Elijah or Jang Nara from The Last Empress can make some cameo in the drama. I know their character would fit perfectly witb these people. Or maybe Kim dasom aka Sera Park would be good. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, try search the writer, the queen of makjang. So far I really like all her work and character that’s why I’m putting more trust into this drama.

Qian Nov 01 2020 12:52 am I seriously think this show is shit. All about rich kids and how ungrateful they are. This show is so extreme, I feel so drained watching it. Boring Even bo ra who is supposed to be talented is another ungrateful brat. Just kids who are demanding and parents who are superficial show. I don't get the Hype at all

Tina Oct 31 2020 6:53 pm The way the show is in all seriousness, but then Oh Yoon Hee (Eugene) just jump into the table nd kick the principal until he lost almost all his tooth... And then the way she run with Ro Na... It's so comical, I want to cry

Miss Mong Oct 31 2020 9:55 am I watched Sky Castle in 2019 then I stop to watch another drama with same genre like SC. SC has given to me something like 'private emotion' & I don't know how to reacted with that. I can't believe, some family like them was exist in South Korea. So crazy ? And then, I heard about this drama on 2020. Suddenly, I'm feeling ready to watch their evils life in here. What did they will do just for being more rich, powerful & famous. Get ready for another amazing plot twist in 2020 (after Corona hit my country lol)

i don’t know Oct 30 2020 2:00 pm love evil characters but ro na . i think she different from them. i love it , some of y’all too sensitive . not every show is rainbows and butterflies. some shows show the reality of life . and i like it . i love some shows that have tragic endings . it shows that you don’t always get the happy endings you i want . i also love shows that are unpredictable.

Graylessio Oct 30 2020 7:09 am Just wrapped up all 2 episodes. The characters are all just extremely Evil that I can't even bear. I was rooting for the tutor girl Seol ah but just realised she was the one who fell from the top of the building on episode 1. I just hope it ain't real..and writer nim can twist it I want to see her till the end

Lola Oct 30 2020 4:53 am Okay I'm going to be the odd one out here and will say that I actually like this drama. I watched Sky Castle. Although this has very similar vibes. I would say it still holds is own ground. We have only seen two introductory episodes so far, I'm willing to see where they will take this.

I really don't like the heavy bullying and all the shitty characters, but that makes this an interesting drama to watch. I'm willing to see where all their shityness wil eventually take them to.

Looking forward to see what will happen with Su Ryeon and Tutor girl. I like them. Although it does seem like they will make them mom and daughter and they probably will kill Tutor girl off :'(

Katy Oct 29 2020 11:26 pm I watched 30 minutes of episode 1 and feel tired of watch violence in the culture. Why can't normal people just explain and listen to each other rationally in a civilized manner? Why do kids possess so much jealousy and always wanted to frame others to gain benefits for themselves. Maybe it is just the screenwriter, taking for granted that viewers will never get tired of their repetitive plot.

Yow Return Oct 29 2020 5:16 pm The couple that cheating from Return make a comeback as a married couple! Lol

Rintin Oct 29 2020 5:14 pm Very scary how the children if the hera palace bullying their math private teacher.. .not good if this film watched by age under 21. I dont like this film. Very extreme !

Defff Oct 29 2020 10:22 am i thought Kim So Yeon was Hyuna... hahhaa

Reed Oct 29 2020 1:23 am Sorry but hell nope. The characters are too evil, especially the kids. Of course I knew the annoying Hyun Soo wasn’t going to be accepted. But somehow she’s still going to get into the school. I have a feeling Seol A is Su Ryeong’s real daughter which her husband somehow managed to send to an orphanage and replaced with the fake sick child. (Just my guess). Anyway there’s no decent character in this drama. Don’t see how they plan on Justifying anyone’s character because I find it hard to sympathize with any of them. Since they already showed us that the only decent character will be killed off I lost interest. I refuse to go through another sky castle feels. (The characters here are even worst than skycastle).

Sten Oct 28 2020 1:23 pm It's good, we can expect similarities with previous super dramas T.W.O. Married or Sky Castle but to be fair isn't all dramas bit similar... recently for example time travel, etc. But it doesn't mean it worser, good entertainment and little bit louder if compaired to those previous ones, it has potential ;)

Minh Oct 28 2020 12:06 pm Just finisg watching the 2nd ep. This drama is almost like sky castle, but I will wait until ep 8-9 to conclude it.

Irene Oct 28 2020 10:49 am Really like the casts but its way too heavy the adults are toxic & the kids all scary species like the children of the corn ..dont feel like watching ..may watch if got nothing

Trbl Oct 28 2020 8:18 am It kinda feel like sky castle combo with return

Anieara Oct 28 2020 8:11 am Just finished watching episode 2. Goshhh gotta say, I am getting hooked with this drama, liking the intense vibes and the conflict and political vibes in this. But honestly really hate how the tutor is always being timid and soft. Cannot even stand up for herself and even speak up for herself. I didn't watch any of sky castle like people have always said this drama has the same vibes, so maybe this has getting me hooked because it is first time I like to watch this intense drama kind of thing. Usually I go for super fluffy romance thingy. But like it overall. I just wish there are some feisty and brave turnout character development from he timid and soft character.

Hoang Anh Oct 28 2020 7:53 am It is too dramatic, children are really bad in this drama. It is too hard to be real, they are just overacting in all characters. It can’t make me feel empathy with any role.

Rocky Oct 28 2020 3:27 am Guys, Is the storyline so bad? Is this the type of dramas that Koreans are fond of? cause the ratings are high. If this is just a copycat of those 2 highest rated jtbc dramas, I hope they would surprass my expectation because it's hard to watch this type of dramas nowadays.

RAKW Oct 27 2020 11:44 pm I was so looking forward to Kim So-Yeon's next project and the long awaited return of Eugene. Both are really accomplished actresses. However, watching this rehashed, convoluted storyline gave me a headache. I will either pass on this drama entirely or just watch the last episode to see what happens to these actresses' characters. May their next dramas be the blessings this one is not.

Victoria Naval Oct 27 2020 10:50 pm Good actors and actresses, but very bad storyline, so toxic for people to watch this kind of plot. I am an avid fan of Kdrama but hopefully not this kind of thing. It doesn’t entertain you, just makes you upset watching. So even if I like Eugene, I’ll pass on this.

Nuthouse Oct 27 2020 9:32 pm Wow what a Nuthouse!

   Oh yeah ....The Penthouse of no talent

Railey Oct 27 2020 4:04 pm Does anyone know how many episodes this is going to be? I hope it’s less than 16 ep or at least no empty episodes...

ARTS Oct 27 2020 1:31 pm This is like how copycat moba game that only swap skill each hero. Sky Castle copy without homage license, they just swapping status, situation and character each role. Waste so many wonderful actors/actress with degraded story.

Ran Oct 27 2020 7:36 am Gosh 1st ep got me tired lol. I don't like the kids. Both rich and poor one have bad attitude. Especially Bae Rona, very stubborn if i'm her mom i'll slap and kicked her out, how can she treats her mom innapropriate. Ok maybe I'm just early to judging, lol.

Jut19 Oct 27 2020 7:20 am Too tired to follow this stories...

Najib razak Oct 27 2020 4:52 am High class for what. Doesn't make you happy. Always fight fight. Tired of such plot story. Upper vs low class. P

Anna Oct 27 2020 2:15 am I didn't finish Sky Castle but I want to watch Jo Soo-Min. Is it worthy?

sum1 Oct 26 2020 9:21 pm I thought im the only who thought its just like sky castle .vibes

dido100 Oct 26 2020 11:27 am Stupid and boring.

barbsz? Oct 24 2020 9:16 am this is so alike to sky castle omg i will still be watching tho <3

Sunhua Oct 23 2020 7:04 am Kim So yeon yayyy. Miss her evil character after All about eve. She can act really well. Glad to see Kim so yeon back very quickly. And Eugene I like her too. Wait Lee sang woo's wife in real life and in drama. Eugene and Lee sang woo acted together in All about my mom drama and Kim so yeon and Eugene's husband acted together in Mother of mine although they did not have much scenes together. Now the two wives meet in this drama. How wonderful. I love Kim so yeon alot. Fighting Penthouse team. Hope this drama will be a big hit drama at the end of 2020.

Aisysy Oct 03 2020 9:38 am I like makjangs haha, But I don't know if I will like the writers' style, Let's see I am anticipating it so much because of Kim So Yeon <3 I watched a lot of her dramas, and I'm never disappointed.. Kim So Yeon, wish you successful, safe and happy filming!

Chubby Sep 26 2020 6:19 am Look forward to watch this drama because of Kim So Yeon. I like her acting performance very much. Her villain look in teaser is very good.

MEVROUWPINDA Sep 25 2020 1:31 pm AIGOOOOOO Eugene & Kim So yeon in one drama. Can't Wait !!!

Hninei Sep 25 2020 2:28 am So Yeon, my girl....Go, I really want to see your performance as bad girl again...Can't wait to see you again...

Nomnom Sep 24 2020 8:58 am I love cast in villain look! The teaser is giving me this vibe and pull me over to watch and wait!

Rocky Sep 22 2020 12:44 pm Is this a combo of Sky Castle and The World of The Married? Lol

Miok Sep 18 2020 5:34 pm Looks who wrote the drama. I believe this drama will be super makjang but HIT. Because most of the writer drama was like that there will be super rising villain from this drama

Blinkjisoo Sep 17 2020 6:09 am Not to hate but this sounds like skycastle lookalike lol but i love soyoen unnie so much

Mina Sep 04 2020 5:28 pm Oh, oh! Lee Sang Woo’s two wives, one drama wife and one real wife! Happy Eugene is back and good to see Kim So-Yeon back so quickly.

Cheni Sep 04 2020 6:48 am Kim so yeon is back. Yayyy can't wait to watch her new drama. Hope the story is good and not soap opera drama.
