Episode 4 and Oh Dae-o has won my heart over. Uggggh.... I'm still pulling for the PE Teacher but oh my goodness y'all. I'm in tears. His love is tangible. This man is an exceptional actor. I don't know who this Son Ho Jun is but I'm in love.. His acting is superb. Wow.

Yeah I love Backstreet Rookie I'm just ready for him to get rid of that girlfriend. She working my nerves. Other than that I love the show. And watch drama isn't enjoyable when the adorable Ji Chang Wook is in it. It's worth it just to stare at the TV screen and see him :-)

I'm still iffy on if he was the cause out right, he's suspicious for sure in my eyes. I'm halfway through episode 4 and I'm sure he is involved some how. And watching how Oh Dae-o looks at the FL he certainly is/was genuine about his love for her - it's undeniable. I literally feel his passion for her. This is getting good.

Yeah there definitely was a miscommunication and he's in the middle. I don't think he's the cause. I just can't see them together. I know she wanted to kiss him but I don't believe anything like that went down between the two but he's suspicious and as I'm watching episode 4, my feelings are confirmed.

Nothing to report other than I LOVE this drama. This maybe unpopular to say right now but I love this more than Backstreet Rookie with my love Ji Chang Wook and more than It's Okay To Not Be Okay. Just me and my honest feelings.

I am pulling strong for the Teacher but I know it probably won't happen, Goo Pa was my strong second. However after episode 3 Oh Dae-o showed me something. The way he responded to being called out about him only thinking of himself and his own feelings as it related to their breakup made me realize that his love for her was/is real. Waiting to see how all the ML develop but I have no interest in her with Ryu Jin because I'm jus not feeling anything between them at all and I have a feeling he was high key responsible for the miscommunication between them that led to their break up because they both were clearly hurt believing whatever it is they were told.

I can definitely buy into him being immortal because of the prayer she prayed because that's what I initially thought. They kept emphasizing that prayer over the last 2 episodes so I figured it must be important to the events of their lives and I believe there is definitely the element of reincarnation because of the photo he has with his most recent past life, her and Do Gyum. And that woman pushing her daughter to marry the CEO was there as well. I am anxious for the rest of this drama. I want to wait until all the episodes are up to binge watch but I can't wait. This is the most intriguing drama because they're giving just enough to keep you coming back while making you wait patiently at the edge of your seat about what's going to happen next. I need this to unfold now. LOL.

I love this show thus far. I'm glad they didn't drag out the whole creepy stalker vibe of the CEO. It was starting to feel like Well Intended Love. The CEO confessed instead of trying to cover it up and make Do Gyum look suspicious.. I thought at first the CEO was immortal but I believe they are continue to be reincarnated because of the prayer she was praying to bring her husband back to her in their first life. I believe he's been trying to make his way back to her but has been held up, hindered or people keep getting in the way and he's determined to not let that happen in this life. I believe one of those people who's been getting in the way is that woman seeking to set her daughter up with him. There's a full story to come. I know it. There's more to what's happening. I'm desperate to know the full story.

So in love with this show that I watched episodes 1 & 2 again. And in doing so, I am convinced Ryu Jin knows a whole lot more about the break-up. He is definitely the middle man in it. He knows more.. He knows a WHOLE lot more.

Yeah I saw that. Can't wait for the new episodes. I want all 16 episodes now. This is so good.

Loving this already!!! Four male leads!!!! Two I'm absolutely in love with: The PE teaching and the ex-gangster: there's something soft and vulnerable in his eyes. The writer is completely dramatic suits his character as a writer and the actor hmmm not just another pretty face he seems to have the inside scoop on some things (especially Ae Jung and Dae Oh). I'm torn about who she end up with. I'll exclude Ryu Jin not feeling any chemistry between them. The strongest chemistry is between her Goo Pa Do and then Dae Oh. The PE teacher is like puppy - he seems so sweet and completely head over heals. He's precious. Ahhh so many choices. How will this end? Who's the father? I say it's Dae Oh. Man!! Hurry Up Wednesday.

Agreed. I'm just about done with the whole show.

Real Talk.. I'm getting so tired, annoyed and bored with this whole story line. This week's episodes did nothing to redeem itself from last week's episodes. Dae Hyun is so naive and that manipulative wishy washy pitiful acting girlfriend of his is getting on my nerves. She knows what she wants. She wants a naive man like Dae Hyun who pants all over her and she wants old boy too. She ain't as confused as she acting. She does whatever she wants, she can waver and be swayed but tries to control Dae Hyun when it comes to Saetbyul because she knows she ain't right. People like her often worry about being cheated on because they are the ones with unfaithful, unloyal thoughts and she don't want him have an oops like her in this recent episode (which wasn't a oops she did what she did because she wanted to do it). She knows how in love Dae Hyun is with her. She knows he will forgive her for her little oops. She is taking advantage of his heart while making him feel like he's not doing enough to care about her. Meanwhile, Dae Hyun keeps getting caught in compromising situations, making him look like he's doing her wrong when it's really her. UGGHHHH! Anyways at this point, it would be more interesting if Puppy was pursuing Saetbyul a little stronger because she deserves to be spoiled and fawned over like Dae Hyun fawns and falls all over his undeserving girlfriend.. Saetbyul deserves a man like that. I ship her and Puppy. As much as I love Ji Chang Wook - his character is just clueless: cute, sweet, perfect in every way but clueless acting.

Listen you stated so much so eloquently here.. LOL..

1. As a caretaker and mental health worker he may be able to handle her to a point, but the kind of help she needs I don't believe he's equipped to give it. More than anything if I can be honest - there's a lot of sexual tension between them so if sexual intimacy is what they mean by he can help her then maybe if sex healed anything (but it doesn't). He is obvious emotionally exhausted and drained himself. He runs after being in one place for a year because I believe that's the only thing he's been able to decide for himself is when he leaves until old girl showed up and now she's manipulating that. He can't move because she's got his brother all twisted up so she trampled on that. Everything for him was decided even him being a caregiver. He's so wounded and desperate for love which explains why he would be okay with the dysfunction because that's all he seems to know is dysfunction.

2. I wholeheartedly agree and believes he is punishing himself about his thoughts of leaving his brother to die. What saddens me is that he was put in that position to deal with an adult problem at such a young age and to have such a finite thought as to let someone die again is an adult issue. He doesn't seem like the type to want to hurt anyone. What bothered me about that whole scene was her watching on the side and talking about run go, leave him and then when he went back she said boring. I was like huh. And the whole save him or not save him. They both had some twisted stuff going on with them as kids.

3. Before I vent about the FL character, I believe she did a good thing with his brother in employing him because he's an excellent artist but the way she went about it. She did it for her own personal gain. If she had done that outside of using it as a ploy to manipulate the ML, I would have been like yes because she seems to have some awareness about things but she's over the top. I give credit to the FL because she is definitely playing out the traits of someone with antisocial personality disorder well so I applaud her stellar acting in that regard. With that being said, a relationship is not going to help her issues. She needs to get therapy for real. So I hope she comes to realize that. This man needs healing himself. He doesn't need a broken woman who only knows how to break, bend and manipulate things to her will. What you said about abuse is spot on. She is emotionally abusive which baffles me because if this were a man doing this there would be so much outrage. Just like I see people complain about men being able to get away with being sexually aggressive but when a women does it it's a problem. I see this the same way. If this were a man manipulating a woman like this - no one would care about his mental disorder. They would be outraged so why is it okay for her to be abusive towards him. I believe the message it's sending to young women is if you want a man bad enough manipulate everything around him including him until he breaks. That's not cute at all. Who wants to end up in a relationship out of obligation to serve them or out of obligation because they saved your life (after playing the petal game no less). I mean really.

We'll see how they work this out. I'm just glad I can talk to somebody about it because I've been feeling alone on an island LOL. I mean goodness. I was thinking maybe I'm wrong for disagreeing with dysfunction and manipulating and violent behaviors. I mean goodness.

Okay. Episode 16, 2nd ML confession and then he went hard in the paint. I'm crying and wavering. How romantic and sweet. Oh my goodness. My 2nd ML syndrome just kicked into overdrive. I wasn't thinking about him but now I'm like choose him.. Why am I crying?

So far I am enjoying this. Is there a happy ending? That's all I want to know. I don't need a fantastic story line - the ML has my attention so I'll keep watching because he is swaggalicious - wait I need to make that word strong SWAGGALICIOUS yesss. That man is all I got to say. The seond ML is pretty cute too..

Thanks for you comment because I've been feeling all alone in a sea of am I seeing something different as far as the relationship is concerned. I absolutely love the drama though because of it's uniqueness and willingness to confront mental health issues. Because we deal with these matters often in ministry and so forth we always advise people to get healed first because two wounded people will only cause each other pain. I know this is a show so everyone is mesmerized by the clothes and beauty of the female character. I however have been confused about how her behavior is excused or seen as cute or acceptable. I've been wrestling with that and if you comment and say something people want to jump on you and fight like they related to the character. I'm like calm down. Just like I know I need to calm down relax and enjoy the show for what it is.. Calm down and let's be real if you encountered someone in real life who decided you belong to them and they manipulated situations and people around you to have you - you wouldn't appreciate it and you would probably want to take legal action.

I understand a lot of her behavior is filtered through her disorder but there are some things she does that has nothing to do with that particular disorder she just need deliverance. LOL. In my opinion however it proves they did a good job writing the character in a such a way that can make you feel these emotions because I'm serious if I encountered someone like the FL's character it wouldn't be good..

And I agree concerning the ML. He told her he didn't want to be needed by anyone anymore because he was forced into that role but she didn't care about what he said. I'm hoping she can genuinely come to a place of caring about him and not just what she wants. There was a moment there where it seemed she had the capacity for that but we'll see how it pans out.

I've just been baffled at how many people seem to think her behavior is admirable. I don't get it. But oh well. It is what it is.

PS. I understand her character description says she has a personality disorder. My undergrad and masters are in psychology/human services so I'm familiar with mental disorders. My husband works on a psych ward. I however am struggling to see how anything healthy can come from this but I'm thinking too realistically. I'm gonna just calm down and try to not be annoyed by the manipulation. I just don't like manipulation - it unnerves me big time.

I love this drama because it deals with issues close to my heart but I'm having a hard time with the relationship. I have to stop thinking realistically and do my best to enjoy the pairing because right now in my mind it's dysfunctional and how she used his brother to get her way in the last episode, the flash back to her saying it was boring to him going back to save his brother instead of letting him die, her picking flower petals to choose to save him and then acting like he owes her for deciding to save him is a little dysfunctional and sick to me so I'm struggling to get over that alone. But I understand this drama is about dysfunction so I've got to be okay. Because realistically, we not going to be together with all these factors (not even all mentioned here) are present. No I don't care how pretty and well dressed you are. No. But maybe I just don't like dysfunction in my relationships.. It's not cute.

Thanks for sharing this.
