i actually liked some of the awkwardness it felt like it suited their personalities well, i thought it was entertaining. also there were some nicer more sincere moments there that i enjoyed. buttt i agree with you in that they did the right thing excluding it, at that stage of the story it's better as just an implied thing

there's a loveline but they cut most of the scenes so it wouldn't draw attention from the main plot, it's kind of hinted at. I'd still give it a try ;P

that part !!

people calling for a show about a man in his thirties pretending to be a high schooler to be "more realistic" is sending me 😭

agree with everything you said!!

did not expect to love this drama as much as i did 😭

true it could be a red herring!

tbh i feel like he started to fall for her before knowing that about her, i'm pretty sure he'd gained a respect for her being so passionate about her job and then started being more aware of his attraction to her when they kissed accidentally and then he was gone by the time she drunkenly babbled into his intercom, feel like her being his first love only made him more aware of his feelings since he probably cherished his crush on her as his last "normal" experience before his dad went missing and his whole life got upended. that's just what i read from it anyway, they might clarify that more later.

on viki

this is such a rollercoaster omg

i completely understand how it would feel that way, so sorry that's been your experience. i do recommend you pick the series back up later down the line, the scammer characters are of course flawed because of their lot in life but they come back around ;) lovely speaking to you, you have a good day!

we differ in point of views on this because I think that if people feel guilty and come clean on their own before it's too late, especially when it's to their disadvantage, then they're not all bad and at least deserve grace or a second chance. she came clean on her own in front of everyone even though she would have paid off all of her debt with what she would have made and in turn she gets punished by her family but takes it and pushes gwiju away so he won't be hurt by her family. the scam at the beginning is just a small part of the story as a whole, but if that's something you can't seem to get past then that's fine I guess, it's just a shame because I found it a very touching story by the end.

not you dropping it right before she risks her life to come clean to him 😭

she also ends up not needing to explain why she did it because the ml meets her in the past and finds out her backstory

yes

word but this was kind of a lose-lose situation where he wouldn't even have a son or a happy family if he didn't save dahae, but yeah it's a good thing he even got to come back at all !

i'm sorry but 3-5 aren't valid to me he only disappeared for 5 years because the son summoned him 5 years into the future how is that his fault 😭

for those who were confused by the ending (aka me) it's actually quite interesting, there's a tweet thread explaining it I'll put it here

so I read an explanation, basically the kid can summon any missing thing from any time if he sees a picture of it, and gwijoo didn't exist in the present time as he was supposed to die in the present fire so he had no time to come back to and basically didn't exist, just wandering through the past. the child summons him from the last moment he existed, during the fire. it had taken that many years for him to come back because that was the age at which the children develop their powers. if I didn't explain it well enough to understand I can send the link of the explanation tweet too lol
