When your heart was painfully broken, even the most desperate romantic person can get a little defensive. And…
Your right, it's never been about a love triangle, but rather a love line.
With NDS in the past, and HJP in the future. It's up to SDM to choose if she wants to choose to live in her past and live for her future.
Either you lunged forward to the unknowns of the future, or you fall back into the comfort of the past. At this moment, the past just feels a lot more comfortable.
HJP has not made a move with SDM, because he sees it in her eyes, that she is still in love with NDS. And HJP wants to start a relationship where he is the first person in her mind.
Right now he isn't but who is to say it can't change. For the longest time, she was in love with a fictional man through letters, then she fell in love with NDS in the flesh. Whose to say she cannot fall in love with HJP of the future.
Actually, if you really really, dissect the show. SDM tells NDS, you are the man who understands me the most. This is just not true. The relationship of NDS and SDM has been quite superficial, almost similar to a high school romance.
The passion is there, the attraction is there, even the skin ship is there, but the relationship lacks foundation. In fact the adjectives that NDS use to describe SDM are quite superficial.
Regardless, you bring up some good points, but i'm not arguing much, since I know Dodal is endgame. All i'm saying is from my perspective, they are not a good match.
BTW, you can't control when people feel SLS, or chemistry. It's just how some people feel. You see that there has never been any moments between SDM and HJP, other people disagree, and thus there are differing opinions.
I just realize a powerful moment in Ep. 14. I kept thinking how this scene with Mrs. yoon was redundant since HJP was going to meet Yong san anyway, and now I see why. This may just as well foreshadow a Miji endgame.
Mrs. Yoon: They don't even know your product, which means they are willing to pay for a product without knowing what it is.
Yong San: They just showed up after our Magazine interview.
Translation: This is a reference to NDS, how he really doesn't know SDM that well, he doesn't even know about SDM's family history. Everything he knows about her, actually comes from the letters (Magazine interview reference) that HJP wrote. That is why several times in the show he refers back to these letters to glean more information on SDM. He does not have all the facts about her, and yet he is wiling to invest (love her blindly)
Mrs Yoon: Then it's safe to say none of them are reliable investors.
Mrs Yoon: They'll cheer you on even if you're jumping into a fire by mistake.
Translation: Then, this is not true love, because even if your making the wrong decisions or harming yourself, they will still cheer you on as if you are making the right moves. This describes NDS relationship with SDM to a T.
Mrs Yoon: instead of looking for investors, why not go look for them yourselves.
Mrs Yoon: If you get turned down, ask why you get turned down.
Mrs Yoon: By doing that you will be able to find the right investors.
Translation: I think this is foreshadowing the possible confrontation between SDM and HJP. Basically, it's like telling HJP, instead of him waiting for SDM to notice him, and look at him with those eyes, he should instead confront her, even if he will get turned down. At least that way, he will finally get some closure, regardless what SDM's decision is, and will be able to move on, and find the right girl for him. Only If, he gets turned down. Which I don't think he will because of the dialogue from HJP and Yong San.
HJP: Did I not just tell you, I will only say good things about you.
Yong San: I want to hear the bad things.
Yong San: We don't need empty compliments now, we need honest criticism.
Translation: I believe this is how the conversation between HJP and SDM will go. After episode 15, HJP will let SDM go, by giving up on her, and encouraging NDS to chase after her.
Then SDM will chase after HJP and confront him. But HJP, who is trying to move on from SDM, will pretend he has no more feelings for her. But SDM will demand to hear the truth (the bad things). She will say, she doesn't want sweet lies anymore, but the cold hard truth.
HJP: Either way the conclusion is simple, if what excites you is writing programs and seeing them run, Work at a company that pays you well. If you're excited about establishing and leading a company, run your own company.
As you already know, you'll face a lot of hardship running a start up, the only thing keeps you going is the confidence, that your doing what you love.
Translation: I think these lines are talking about NDS versus HJP. In a weird way, the title of the show is starting to make sense. SDM being with NDS is like working at a big company that pays her well, it's been shown to be the easy route.
While being with HJP is like being in a startup, because it's all new, they haven't spent much time together. She would need to invest time and love into this new relationship. And just like any startup, there is a high risk of failure. For their love to work, they will have to face a lot of hardships, but what keeps the relationship running is knowing that she chose the man she truly loves.
...okay but hjp is their mentor. of course he's just going to guide them. nds is dal mi's partner. of course he's…
Eventhough SDM is not qualified, if you make her the CEO, you should respect her position regardless of her qualification, otherwise don't make her CEO in the first place.
After seeing the results of the poll on Naver, which resulted in 81% choosing HJP, I thought about something a…
I would rather they stick to the one they had planned, then allow netizens to control the script.
With 2 episodes left, HJP's ending will not feel as rewarding, unless they do something crazy in the last 2 episodes.
The best we can hope as HJP fans, is a believable happy ending, or a last minute love line. With the door closing quickly on a believable happy ending, we can all just pray that they show HJP finding someone before the end credits.
I guess you need to ask yourself the question.Do you fall for the man, who will move the mountains for you, so…
Yes, but it's not the men's decision, it is SDM's.
At her current maturity level, she is attracted more to the man who is always in the limelight due to his many heroics.
She has blinded herself to the actions behind the scenes, because the actions in front of her are more visible.
Is it shallow? Yes it is, but at her current maturity level, SDM is quite a shallow character. She still possesses a lot of the naivetes before the 3 year time skip. This is highlighted when she saw the twins having dinner with someone, and had an inkling they were lying, but decided not to share with WIJ her reservations.
In a lot of ways, SDM is still very much a dreamer, and her dreamer mentality actually aligns with NDS.
I was just thinking, loving someone as intense as NDS can be tiring. It is clear to me that NDS loves SDM more than the other way around. Not to say SDM does not love NDS, but her love for him is not as great as his love for her.
And I feel that after a while, it will get tiring. Like, it can feel depressing at times not to share the same intensity of love, and not being able to reciprocate the same amount. And i'm sure NDS will tell SDM, she doesn't have to. But in reality, the more NDS does for SDM, the more indebted she becomes. And their relationship will reach a point where her debt to NDS will be so great that there will be a large shift in the couples power dynamic.
Quite a few of SDM success has not been because of her skill, but because NDS saves her a lot, and does great things for her. But in doing so, does he not stunt her personal growth?
In fact, I think the show even satires this, by showing us SDM's mom. When she was married to Chairman Won, everything was provided, and she became incredibly dependent on her husband to the point that it became a running joke, of how incompetent she was at house chores. A big difference from who she was when she was with SDM's Dad.
With HJP and SDM's dynamic, we always see that HJP never gives SDM the exact answer, instead choosing to just guide her to figure out the answer on her own. With NDS, he gives the exact answer, the exact solution 9/10 times. I was just thinking, with HJP's way, my chances of growing is greater than with NDS method. And in love, does personal growth matter? Or does love really conquer all? I see celebrities divorcing due to men being emasculated. Will SDM reach a point where she becomes jealous of NDS successes?
Will this be SDM's fate when she marries NDS? A life where in her career, she is as clueless as her mother? At what point will the CTO just let the CEO do her job?
The ending already clear dodal cockroach coupleSo for the han jipyong that admire his characterI want say last…
#cockroachcouple?
just an FYI, cockroach couple is actually a compliment, not an insult. Cockroach couple means that their love is so resilient that no matter how much you try to squash it, or cut of it's head, it will still survive.

Just some food for thought.
Do you fall for the man, who will move the mountains for you, so your car can pass, no matter the cost to him or others? (NDS)
Or the man, who tells you to just drive around the mountain (HJP).

Pretty sure she memorized the coffee preference of everyone in SST.
Which Actor's fans are the most zealous
1. Lee Min Ho Fans
2. Nam Joo Hyuk Fans
3. Ji Chang Wook Fans
I'm personally voting for Lee Min Ho fans, I have had the worst experience with them. Compared to LMH fans, NJH fans are like cuddly teddy bears.
