Everything is true except the timeline. The flirting and kissing scene between judy and bamhee happened WHILE…
I know she cheated on Tae - I explicitly mention that in my comment. It is not a romanticized version of Ba-Mhee, but a character study, where you analyze her behavior and motivation/feelings behind said behavior. Every character has a reason to do what they do, otherwise they would not be interesting characters. I am not debating the morality of cheating, my analysis is character based.
I never said Ba-Mhee was "mature". I was talking about their break up scene where they finally communicate and express their feelings and honest thoughts - that was an adult and grounded conversation to have. They could have easily just hid their feelings and ignored each other for the rest of the series.
As for their screentime, I think it's deserved. It's an ensemble cast, and their storyline has the most "drama" of all the storylines. Of course it's going to take center stage for a few episodes.
Ba-Mhee is such a complex and interesting character - it's a shame some reduce her to being just a cheater. Yes,…
I'm still hoping Jimmy will show up to cheer up Tae, but I also think he needs to spend some time alone and figure who he is as a person without Ba-Mhee - which is a very interesting storyline!

It is still a shame we get the cheating plotline with the lesbian couple, because we really need more good lesbian representation, and a lot of people have complete written off Ba-Mhee and Judy due to their kiss. I still love their dynamic and seeing two girls slowly falling in love is making my heart flutter. At the end of the day, they are characters and not real people, so I will still enjoy whatever lesbian rep I see in my shows.
Ba-Mhee is such a complex and interesting character - it's a shame some reduce her to being just a cheater. Yes, what she did was wrong and she clearly regrets her actions, but the lead up to her kiss with Judy was filled with real and raw emotions. She had done everything for Tae since highschool and was barely getting anything in return. She felt immense loneliness in their relationship, and Tae himself says he didn't take proper care of Ba-Mhee.
Then she meets Judy, and suddenly she has someone who looks out for her. Who takes care of her. She has always been the giver, but never the receiver in a relationship. Given how lonely she is, it's only natural that she is drawn to Judy.
Ba-Mhee and Tae didn't communicate properly, which ultimately led them to fall apart. Their relationship was never going to last, and that's okay. It's a very realistic portrayal of a relationship and the issues you can have in one. I really loved their talk when they decide to break up. They love each other, and they regonize they aren't right for each other anymore. It's a very adult and grounded conversation, where they finally communicate and talk about their feelings and short comings. They realize how much they have hurt each other, but they obviously still love each other, so they decide to remain friends instead.
I feel like it ended really abruptly. I think it could have used an episode more to really make the feelings of the leads clear to each other, so that they avoid miscommunication going forward. I just really want them to talk it through and use their words for once, but yeah.
mihyun and dooshik are the cutest I will literally die if anything bad happens to one of them. also I pray that dooshik gets to meet bongseok in the present day like I’m not going to accept anything less.
