well this was one hell of a depressing ep. how the previous ep ended & how this did OMG - polar opposites, as it was going i wouldn't have been surprised if by the end his mother passed away on his lap - like WTF. *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the plot twist came out of nowhere... as i already mentioned Yeong Su was hard to read, but i didn't expect him to be an utter coward. it's one thing to be in the closet, regardless of the reasons or the hang-up's, but it was f*cked-up how he basically belittled Ko Yeong's feelings at the end. he deserved to get punched & worse. the fact he hurt Ko Yeong so much, that Ko Yeong tried to end things is beyond sad (as if he didn't have enough on his plate with his sick mother), Yeong Su turned out to be an utter disappointment, so am happy that after a yr when he tried to apologize in his own way, Ko Yeong tossed the apology in the trash where it belonged. ********************************************************************************************** watching this, ironically remembered Ko Yeong's last words to Nam Gyu, where he admitted to being a coward that wasn't ready for the love Nam Gyu had to offer. here Yeong Su chose to hurt Yeong Su instead of facing / admitting to the fact, that he was a coward that wasn't ever gonna be able to leave the closet. instead he chose to insult Ko Yeong by belittling his feelings & the love that did exist between them. making a joke out of him, as if two men can't fall in love. MOFO deserved to get kicked not just punched.... ugh *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************personally i wish Ko Yeong would have a heart to heart with his mother, about her forcing him into conversion therapy - that was a messed-up thing she did & even if there wasn't anything to discuss, as both knew why she did it, i still think Ko Yeong needs to voice his hurt & betrayal, so he can forgive & let got of that trauma. maybe it would also do good for the mother to hear him out & apologize for what she did.

Goodness….my heart. Tears were rolling down uncontrollably at the end of this episode….Please let him find happiness by the end of this show. This is like trauma porn at this point. I went into this show not expecting much. But my goodness. It’s well worth the watch.

The way I bawled my eyes out for the last part of the episode is honestly quite embarrassing. It should be illegal to have mom characters have cancer in series, my heart can't take it. And also let poor Go Young have something good in his life for once I'm begging you

This was a strong and moving episode as we watched Young in the midst of the shifting attitudes of his significant others: his mother, his lover, and the constancy of his friends. The nods to the beauty of the universe in this and the previous episode added poignancy to the story, and while the love theme takes a turn for the worse, the episode ends on a note of tenderness and beauty nonetheless.

What a strong episode, a great impeccable performance, I felt that the actor was the perfect choice for acting lightly without exaggeration. I couldn't hold back the tears in this episode
