I'm loving this show. Thank God we don't have to wait for hand holding or hugs until the end. There's some misunderstandings but no game playing. They've all been through divorces and just want to find a relationship. I hope Ricky & Ha-rim stick together until the end. As for Jerome and Benita...jury is still out...

The most disappointing season yet. I blame it all on editing. They totally butchered the series. We were made to dislike JY & MG and that's just not fair. The two monopolized so much screen time that the others didn't have a chance. Viewers were swayed by potential false relationships by splicing scenes together.

We never really saw MG & YS's interactions. I bet their relationship was established early on and the PDs didn't want to show it. But what's wrong with seeing one couple's end game?! That would add stability to the show. The constant head nodding and silent interaction on dates were so frustrating to watch....especially the last date between MG & JY. Talk about awkward.

All in all, I like the two couples at the end and hope they're still together and happy. Jumi was a hidden diamond that none of the men found. I loved her.

Watching all 4 episodes, I went back and re-watched the first 2. Now it made a lot of sense.

You're a lot kinder regarding JY. I get what you're saying and to some degree, I concur. But...I'm not convinced that she's unaware of what she's doing with the men. Being a former airline hostess, she knows how to appease passengers. I feel she's doing the same with all 4 guys. So disappointed that this ep. (honestly, the whole show) focused so much on her.

I sure hope the producers are aware of the negative feedbacks. They really botched this season big time! Don't drop it. You only have one ep. left. BTW, the panelists didn't help either. They were horrible.

Wow, good observation. I'll have to rewatch MG & YS's shopping date. But that's all I'll watch. The rest is pure torture. Also, GO made such a huge tray of banana pudding only to have her taste a small dish. Ugh!

Thanks so much for the detailed explanation. I didn't realize that some scripts are being written while the show's airing. Maybe that's why some endings can seem rushed or disjointed. Here in the West, most, if not all, are preproduced. That said, I really enjoy K Dramas and prefer them over most of the shows in the US.

Got it, thanks.

Question...Before the actors sign on the dotted line to a drama, do they know the outcome of the story? If so, do they have any input if they disagree?

I was crushed.

I don't know how to feel about the ending. Had I known the outcome, I'd probably quit early on. I tend to stay away from sad endings. I watch K dramas for escape, not to get depressed. That'll teach me for not waiting until all the episodes are out. I'm a TY fan and hope his next venture won't end like this.

I've been reading tons of negative posts regarding the finale. You're the only one that I completely agree with. I also enjoyed the drama and loved the leads & the 2nd leads. Maybe they left it 'open' for a possible sequel?

She's not your typical K drama female lead. That said, I like that she's stiff and gawky. She has the talent of delivering lines with such a straight face and yet, draw to the viewer's emotions (at least for me). I teared up a few times. She must be doing well as she'll be the FL in Squid Games 2.

Wouldn't it have been great if we had like a Hotel Del Luna vibe with odd/supernatural guests? With ML's two buddies working as staff all along? That would have been entertaining and add a bit of comic relief.

Do watch. It's far from perfect, but the leads will keep your attention. Their character development is so good and the chemistry is on point.

I believe there's 2 left

Why am I still watching this !@#$%& show? My intelligence has definitely been compromised. Thank God we're near the end. I frankly could care less who they end up with at the end. Ultimately it never works. As for the editing...they all should be fired ! Let's just make it the Ming gyu/Ji young show and how to be master emotional manipulators.

See you in my 19th Life is one drama where both 2nd Leads are likable...for once. I wish K drama writers would break the obvious formula and make dramas more unpredictable.

Thank you so much. It's such a touching song. I made me cry. I saved it.

For the life of me, I don't get his appeal. Sure, his aloofness, at first, may be attractive, but moving forward, that becomes annoying. You know the old saying, what draws you initially is the very thing that'll eventually turn you off.
