She's going to leave him in tatters, I'm sure. She doesn't come with another option😫Poor guy is finished

He actually crashed out with that tear I was in shock

Oops sorry!!

Yes of course, as I said, I agree with you. What the adults did to her was wrong. No one is denying that, and neither is the show denying that. That doesn’t change the reality that sending an innocent man to prison is also wrong. Using people and discarding them isn't right no matter who does it. It’s in all her right to get vengeance against those who wronged her and it would have been nice if that doesn’t come with consequences, but it does. It would have been nice if she didn’t drag an innocent person into it, but she did. She has gone through a lot, yes but does he deserve to be randomly dragged in because she’s had a hard life? No. If he agreed to help her, then it would be different. She issued people as she has been used, and does that make sense in her case? Yes. Is it still wrong? Still, yes.

What do you mean labelling the young girl a monster? Being a sociopath is a medical condition that is diagnosed. It doesn’t “always” mean someone is “bad”, but due to the condition that affects the way the way they think, feel and see the world, they can be “bad or tend to be considered dangerous” because they see people as disposable tools or pawns more often than not.
The young girl is a monster, but she is a created monster and that fact is not ignored at all. The writer isn’t “blaming” her for her harsh deeds, it’s just “x” happened and “y” happened. In this case, the actions of those around her are bad and so are many of her actions are too. That’s fact. Innocent people suffer because of her actions too.
This story serves to shed light on her thought process and watching through the things that happened to her and the things she happened to. You can see how she uses other people like chess pieces to achieve her aims without getting her hands dirty. So yes, she’s no good, but the show doesn’t ignore that she became so harsh due to her situation growing up.

😂 dkm please

Very good point!

You’re right that it’s crazy, but at that point, I think he felt that his life wasn’t very much worth living anyway. So many things were going very wrong, I think he was trying to be self destructive (at the very least), and sort of wanted to punish himself. Almost like, since this building is burning I might as well topple it anyway. It was rash and unnecessary, but the character had always been a pretty extreme person so I didn’t think it totally unbelievable

That’s an interesting perspective on how he told her about their physical contact. I guess it was important that she knew she came to him first, and his light tone kept it from seeming overly serious in a way that would make her worry. That’s a point that I hadn’t noticed before. However, I do think he was trying to make her shy with embarrassment

Hard agree. The preachiness was unbearable

The flashbacks were severely overdone toward the ending. So many we had seen multiple times.
They had never really faced their anxieties or healed from being hurt when they were little so their communication gap remained until they faced it

I watched this months ago now, but I occasionally remember the scene from the camping trip when he pulled her towards him. That scene is so good. The lighting, angle, tension, and acting are all so perfect in that scene. I just randomly remember it and think, "damn, the chemistry was crazy", but I'm even more impressed that the director was able to capture it so well. It always felt like two souls were sitting in the same room, instead of people. I conjecture that it's the result of directing with a clear vision (along with sufficient skill and taste) and a complete understanding of the director's idea on the actors' parts.

People still don't understand consent🫠

OMG Congratulations!!!!

Whoa it didn’t feel that long at all

EP 21: Ranran has discovered that Ranwu is posing as Qingge and she goes to tell Yi Shui. I'm trying to understand why He doesn't tell her that he already knows and that he'll explain why she gets to stay later. He doesn't tell her anything at all. I don't understand the purpose of this. Is this because he wants to push her away? If so, then he can do that while still making it clear that he doesn't disregard her existence.
Also, I don't believe that he would leave her without supervision when Ranwu is around. Doesn't match his personality, but I'll suspend my disbelief for that

Question about Ep 21 below

Idk why the directors want everyone to be sticks

It must be overwhelming to have that many choices. Picking a good script seems like quite a challenging thing to do

imo his acting is really impressive here. His expressions and actions seem thoughtful and nuanced. It comes off as pretty impressive to me. I feel that he's getting the good looking comments because he's so good-looking that people are worried that they're biased. I don't think the script and delivery are easy enough that anyone can do it this well. It requires grandiose and silliness but not to the extent that it's unbelievable, which makes it a bit more challenging to pull off without ending up as just silly, but He (as well as Yoona ofc) are seriously believable in the roles. The script and directing are top-notch, but a good number of people don't just say he's good-looking , they're are also saying his acting was impressive.
