Are Korean writers really this economically stupid?

Let me review episodes 13 & 14. A guy hired to play Santa is caught stealing from a store but adding a popular and expensive backpack to the gift bags that he was handing out to his son. He is a repeat offender having been caught stealing prior from another store. There were some who wanted to let him go and not turn him over to the police, but the store owner decides to turn him over apparently ignoring the sad story being told about the theif.Then the reports investigate and turn their attention to the bad that the Santa stole and gace to his son. They learn that the bags are very expensive. And that the parents of school kids who buy the bags have assigned names to the bags as Grase 1 or 2 or 3 etc matching the relative price of the bags. Any the parents and students have done the naming but that is really meanless too, however, because of the "naming" the bags have become the source of bullying or shoukd I say the lack of a bag or those with a higher grade bag look down on and bully those with no bag or lesser grade bags. The reports turn this into an issue of the store. Why or how exactly is not clear, just that the bags are very expensive even a grade 1. The reporters then do a live report from the store reporting on the fact that the bags are expensive and have become the source of kids being bullied. The reports intention is to damage the stores reputation, again why they want yo do this is not clear. They seem to be suggesting that a store ahould not be selling such an expensive bag and that some how the store is responsible for the bullying that has occurred because the bags are popular. Later that evening one reporter Dal Po is in the administrative part of the store where just outside the store's President's office, which is private and not open to the public. Why he is there is not explained. But while waiting for the elevator he spots a bag filled with shredded paper. Early in the drama he and other newbie reports were tasked with doing the virtual impossible to recreating the orginal documents from the shredded pieces of paper. So he decides to take the shredded paper stuff them into his back pack and take them back to reassemble them. He completes his task by recreating a single document from and entire garage bag filled with shredded paper. But lets skip over that ridiculous part of the story and go directly to what the document is and what it is claimed to represent.The document is a Purchase Order for the very bags that the reporters claim are the reason why kids are being bullied and that reason is tied to how expensive the bags are. Got all that. So now this shredded PO which was picked out of the garage by Dal Po is used by him to claim that the store has used the media reports to sell even more bags, oh NO the horror of it. But there is a problem here. NO business in the world would destroy a purchase order for an item they just purchased that day. No one. If they truely didn't want to have a paper trail of there own legal business practices the why creat a purchase order at all, at least create a paper copy of it. It is absolutely nonsense.And the next day when the store is filled with people wanting to buy that evil expensive bag that the parents are buying for there kids even knowing that if they dont buy the most expensive one their child maybe bullied, and the kids ate still wsnting then even knowing that. So the reporters bias irresponsible reporting framed to make the store the bad guy failed. The reporter here who claims to want to be the virtue of truth continues to fail to blame the people really responsible, those who are buying the bags, the children actually doing the bullying. This seems to be a reoccurring theme in kdrama's. That being that the people who are actually responsible for any bad behavior or wrong doing are never given or take responsibility. Some other person(s) is accused of wrong doing and suffers. But the methods and situations created to cause these situations are often either poorly written or so illogical as to be ridiculous and make some of these dramas unwatchable. But then to overcome what I will call lazy writing they create additional situations where the supposed right person is then caught or outed. But too many times the ridiculous stroy line becomes increasingly ridiculous in order to get to the finish where the writer can wrap everything up in a nice little package and hoping that no one remembers all of the other ridiculous nonsensical writing that as come before. I love good kdramas. But it is becoming increasingly difficult to find them.
