Everybody has their own right to give their own rating. Do it as you wish. This is a Netflix drama though, and…

Some fans are 'mad' & accusing a certain ship *cough* *us*, that we deliberately rate the show as 1 just because…
must be the same people I already blocked, I suggest everyone just block them, it's more peaceful here without them.

Its good at least dramas will get rating what they deserve.
you'd be surprised, I can personally say during the TKEM days, there were so many troll accounts, I think some people even got caught making multiple accounts to bump up the rating.

Really enjoying this show so far, a k-drama focusing on startups is fresh. I hope there is less romance, more…
"I hope there is less romance, more about their work lives (esp the development and come up of FL)"

Should we tell her?

I'm a little bit sad that you think i'm mad
For overreactions, you're over a tad
I write what I feel, I feel what I think
But your strong words, in fear I do shrink

I realize though, you are just a commenter
Whose head I inhabit, a very gracious renter
So as I ignore your cold winter leaves
Let me tell you of how many pucks I give.

The End.

to me every characters has a great depth and also after 3 years time skip grow into a better , more mature version…
The love of NDS and SDM is so pure that in their world, time has stood still.

Thus they never matured from 3 years ago.

I did not watch the episode nor the scene but while reading your comment I can pictured it clearly and I cried…
That's a beautiful story :(

But yes, sometimes we focus too much on being the "Good Boy" and "Good Girl", but in reality, nobody really takes notice, and nobody cares. By doing so, we impose our own prison.

In this life, most people will forget the 10 things you did good to them, but will forever remember the one brief time you did them wrong, and it sucks.

Yes, but now they are being stopped by an invisible wall, which for me is even worse than a seamless relationship.

wow, this gave me goosebumps. It's heartbreaking yet beautiful at the same time.
Rewatch the scene, and focus on HJP's facial expression towards NDS, it's so damn powerful, when you look at what the statement really meant.

SDM mentions that is was NDS hands that made her fall in love with him. Then they show a flashback of when NDS is holding SDM hands to give her comfort in the networking party.

If you actually continue that clip, HJP comes in to hold NDS hands (shoulders to be exact) for comfort by saving the day.

So, due to the transitive law of mathematics, "If A is equal to B, and B is equal to C, then A is equal to C"

If SDM finds comfort in NDS hands, and NDS finds comfort in HJP hands, then SDM finds comfort in HJP's hands.

Eureka! I've cracked the code! MIJI endgame, all but confirmed.

Title Start-Up Spoiler
In Ep. 14 when HJP says "I'm pretty sure I have the right."

This is the single most powerful statement in the whole show. And I still get goosebumps when I re-watch this simple elevator scene. Let me explain why.

I am sure most people simply saw this simple statement as HJP lying to NDS that he and SDM are dating so that he will back off. Some even saw this as a selfish move.

But there is more to this statement than meets the eyes. This simple statement is basically distilling all of HJP, all of who he is, all of what he has gone through to reach this point, into one powerful line.

The title of Ep. 14 is elevator pitch. And as described, an elevator pitch is when you have 1 minute to convince the other person of your pitch. While everyone needed more than a few minutes, more than a few statements to convince people in this episode. HJP only really needed that one beautifully simplistic statement, "I'm pretty sure I have the right".

Couple this with the look HJP gives to NDS. It's not a gloating look, it's not a superior look, it's the look of a man, who is in clear desperation. It is the look of a prisoner, wanting to have one final glimpse of the rising sun.

This elevator pitch was not meant for NDS, but rather it was meant for us, the viewers. Let me explain further.

"I'm pretty sure I have the right"

We are all aware of how hard HJP's journey has been, from being an orphan, to having to leave Grandma 15 years ago, to discovering Grandma's blindness. And throughout this tough journey he has constantly been doing the right things, being the "Good Boy", and sacrificing his true happiness for others. In doing so, he has created a world with limited boundaries, a world where many doors have been glued shut. A world with limited options.

Ever since he was young, he was never allowed to be selfish. Each time he has been selfish, he has been punished severely. He hasn't allowed himself to be selfish for more than a moment. He constantly lets his happiness take a back seat to doing what's right, what is professional.

That one line in the elevator is the manifestation of 18 years of holding it in, of doing what's right all the time, of never doing what is good for him. It was one of his first acts of being selfish. And I'm sure it felt good to him. To finally do something for himself rather than all the people out there.

I'm sure in HJP's mind, he is thinking, everyone has been selfish in getting their happy ending. Everyone has done worse than him, yet has been rewarded. For a brief moment there, he wanted to say, it's my turn. It's my turn to be selfish, my turn to put my happiness in front of other's happiness.

But, as we later found out, it was a fleeting thought, and he later goes back to his self imposed imprisonment. But that momentary freedom from his self imposed boundaries must have felt amazing to him.

And I can absolutely relate to this. To suddenly break free from being consistently good according to societies eyes, and to suddenly break character and, even for a brief moment do something that is selfish to secure one owns' happiness, even for a fleeting moment, feels so rewarding.
