Not that he wasn't struggling a bit before but I think the way HyeongJin had that horrible conversation has really knocked him back. I'm pretty sure that date was CheongWook's way of trying to be more outgoing and friendly and it totally backfired on him.

I think it was when MinSeong definitely started liking HyeongJun. HyeongJin hasn't really made up his mind who he likes yet and is still trying to keep his options open. He doesn't want HyeongJun to be with MinSeong until he's made up his mind, so he's getting between them. He showed with his interactions with CheongWook that he's a little selfish and not considerate of others.

I'm not sure Pear marrying Not is actually better for her though. Hopefully her arc changes for the better as well

I think if he had enough self-awareness to feel embarrassed after that conversation, he would also be the kind of person who wouldn't have had it in the first place. Like there's so much shifting feelings and ambiguity in that house, why was that the point he had to make crystal clear? He's very self-involved.

Yeah, I can't imagine him making any phone call that day. Or being outgoing for a date the next day. It would take a strong person to just shake off the kick in the teeth that HJin tried to give him for no reason.

HyeongJin was garbage for how he handled that conversation with CheongWook. With what he was saying to JS and SH earlier, he tried to make it weird that CW took him to his home. It's maybe unusual but it was in the middle of the day with a camera crew in tow. It's not like he asked him to eat ramyeon. I took it as something he cooked up last minute because he wasn't expecting to date that day, and something he'd do with a friend. I think if he had feelings for HJ he would have done normal date stuff. So HJ dug himself a hole and kept digging. He made it out like CW gave him the ick and didn't even soften the blow with polite words. Total jerk.

I know a lot of people like SeonWoo and I can generally see why. Honestly, my instincts would be to stay away from him. Every personal question someone asks him, he looks at them for a moment, doesn't answer, then asks the same question back. He seems manipulative cause why is he expecting others to answer a question he won't answer himself. It's like he's always just calculating things but never really involving himself. I get narc vibes from him but that's just my opinion. He also seemed really insensitive to YH during the date, implying that he's given up finding love in the Men's House or bringing someone he loves to his work right to YH's face. And then thinking he and YH had shared "a moment". YH deserved better.

I hope SeonWoo and HyeongJin get together. They seem very alike and I think they deserve one another. They might actually be happy together if they can get over themselves.

I think HyeongJun is sweet so I hope he gets together with MS, cause that's who he wants. My opinion, which counts for nothing, is that HyeongJun and CW would have been a good fit. Like I could see a slow-burn friends to lovers arc for them, if they weren't dating in a pressure cooker. They're both very straightforward and honest with their feelings and neither likes games.

And JS and SH seem right for each other, so hopefully SW doesn't mess with them.

Yeah, weren't there only supposed to be 10 episodes? Did the show runners think they hadn't dragged out the misunderstandings long enough so just add 2 extra episodes at the last minute?

The name of this show should be "The woman who never clears up any misunderstandings, no matter how small."

On his date, he talked about how perfectionism is a problem in his life that he's trying to overcome. He seems like he has a lot of great qualities, but I wonder how his perfectionism plays into his relationships? Like he said he doesn't bring up his real feelings because he wants to seem like a perfect boyfriend. I'm not hating on him. Everyone has flaws and this one trait doesn't make him undateable. Just personally, I would find that intimidating.

You know, you don't have to watch them all at once? You can ration them out once per week. 😂😂. Sorry, I'm just teasing.

Right? And there are even 2 decent female characters in this series. Amazing!

Does anyone know where to find a translation of the novel? I can't find one anywhere.

@Zaria But we all did! Where's our vicarious happy ending? 😂😂

Seriously though, the writers really set it up for her to fall in love with Dr. Roy. I wish they'd got his confession over much sooner and showed them being real friends for longer. It just felt like we were set up for an ending that didn't happen. Just my opinion.

So a totally slow-burn romance for 6.5 episodes then squashing an entire relationship into under 4 minutes minutes then straight into parental crisis on both sides. Let's date, play basketball once, ride a bike, take a picture, eat ice cream and hold hands, and 4 minutes later we're at our 100th day? What? I liked the story and the actors but I feel like I had whiplash at the end. We see so little of their actual relationship that it still seemed like they were just friends at the end. I wish they'd skipped all the parental drama and focused on making the relationship seem real.

I hate how Yutaka's brother is blaming him for being traumatized. His brother was a bully and it was never dealt with in the family. Not Yutaka's fault!

How is Gun's acting in this? After Golden Blood, I'm nervous to watch him in anything else. Had he improved at all?

Seems like it was a mutual decision by the showrunners and actors after the workshops. It's implying a lack of chemistry between Mike and Krist, but who really knows?

Does anyone know why he got replaced as one of the leads in Be My Favorite? I just read that Gawin was a last-minute replacement but I didn't see any details.
