While You Were Sleeping Episode 3

Four Stars

How can Hong Ju speak so confidently about what happens when the predicted future is altered? She's never managed to do it before. Also, she didn't dream the whole story of the car crash, coma, and her mother dying, so why does she feel so relieved now? Isn't it possible that something else will happen to her mom later, that this wasn't the actual event that led to the scene in her dream?The part where she anticipated his morning commute was cute and clever, but she's said herself that she doesn't know when her dreams will become reality -- it could be that day, the next day, or a month away. So how did she know it would be today? (To be fair, I guess you could just follow along and see, and when you get to the balloon in the tree, you know it's that day, but she still looked awfully confident early on to me.)I like how strange they've made her. Often, the FL is mostly kind or cute with a touch of quirk -- just enough to make her "unique," but Hong Ju is TRULY weird, and I kind of love her for both her quirks and unexpected (and possibly unfounded?) self-confidence. FLs are often way too meek and insecure, so it's nice to have one who's overly confident haha
