When they said Yeo-rin is the reincarnation of the Cinnabar, I thought that meant that Yeo-rin's soul was the…
So I will explain how I understand things but I will not hide it : I am a bit confused too so it is more like ideas than real " facts ".
About the Cinnabar : In her past she was a sacred rock but had an " human form " sometimes to get out and help people. The bad guy destroyed the rock but her soul was still existing so she reincarnates as an human and she keeps the same form ( Yeo Rin has the same face for example like in the flashback where the rock transformed as an human). Then her memory was each time erased ( when she is reincarnated) in order for her to live a " normal " life but her memories from 500 years ago as a sacred rock are still in her subconsciously : To me they have the same soul but with different memories.
About the tree and Kang Bae I think it is another case, to me they are not really the same soul but it is hard to say yet. I think when the sacred tree " died " because of Weol Joo's curse he entered the baby's corpse to survive and so he was mixed with the baby's soul ? And when Weol Joo's baby was reincarnated; deep down he had the sacred tree's memories. I do not know if it makes sense haha
What we saw at the end was the memories of the sacred tree
I'm really curious about the one drama on your list.
It is " The Guest " One of the best ending I have ever seen it is rare for me to be please with the ending often. And all characters was well done in my opinion and get a good evolution
I am so ready to see épisode 11 ! Feel like this drama will be add in my list of satisfacting drama all along ( and so far there is only one drama who was good until the end before pop up bar...) even the end will be great I have a good feeling about it ! Perhaps because it was preproduced, because there are only 12 épisodes, because it gives a lot of emotions without being tiring, because the story is well done without making common mistakes like useless love triangle or because of the great acting but I love it
Really cant wait for this.. I only hope that this drama will has a happy ending.. Sometimes an anti-hero is so…
I do not think there will be an happy ending but I know what you means... I am so excited I have the impression a lot of good dramas are airing at the same time !!! Not so long ago I thought it would be interesting to see Dexter as a korean drama and here it is with " Flower of Evil " (except here it is not his sister who is a cop but his wife)
Mystic Pop-up bar is one of the few drama where I think everything are in my taste until the end (there are still two episodes to see but I have faith in it) : Comedy, Dynamic, great team-work, loveable and unforgettable characters, and not useless love triangle + some heartwarming twist !
I already recommend it to my loved ones. I am currently enjoying " Kkondae Intern " and " Team Bulldog ", it is also fun to watch not as fun of course but still. The next one I am awaiting is " Train "
About Hotel Del Luna I did not enjoyed it as much as Mystic Pop Up Bar, I loved the characters there too but I felt like they did not use all the potential of the story ? Not quite sure how to put it but I prefer when there is one short story by one episode and the " main story " progressing in the background, it is more compelling to me.
It is because it is a super secret information ? No frankly it is just to spice up the show at the end I guess…
Yes even if I know that I am already sad :( Whyyyyyyyyyyyy he suffered enough already. At least I hope they will give a proper goodbye ( and I do not think I will be deceived because the actors and the way the drama is made are great ! ) I will use tissues in the last episodes I think arf
Since Weol Joo is serving 500 years to save her son, why does she have to pay/ get information about clsoing Kang…
It is because it is a super secret information ? No frankly it is just to spice up the show at the end I guess because yeah I find it too disproportionate when you know about Weol Joo's crime. Even so the rock and the tree are like ancient gods and their power reincarnate in humans I find it a bit too much as punishment just to know who reincarnate with what ?
I want the family to be together too I think I will hate if they do an bittersweet ending where Weol Joo and Mister Gwi leave at the end... Except perhaps if they kind of do a end like Tunnel where there is one full episode to say goodbye but it is still sad...
Oh exactly ! True that scene reminded me something now I know what. And I think that is why the drama seemed more interesting than I thought at first because you can sense it is well written/ a smart writting when you do not see things coming. I am glad to be surprise and not to see the cliché trope coming for once...
Besides the awesome plot twist, I am equally as impressed with all the cues given earlier. If you rewatch some…
Yes there were a lot of things hidden ! I think the only moments where I was surprise of their reactions was when : She help him doing something on his computer and he said her hairs was a joke at work (it was strange because he was nice with everyone even Yeol Chan to clim up ) and the moment where Man Shick opened a false virus and Tae Rie shout on him her anger. But frankly I did not put much thoughts on it because I thought it was just they way of being (Man Shik being a Kkondae and Tae Ri being too much honest) so like you said you can interpret things different way
I think I will perhaps rewatch the episodes to see the moments between Man Shik and his daughter. Now I understand why he seemed really moved when he thought Tae Ri was the one who sent the audio file ! Or when he cut her hairs ! ...
In episode 10 they show how Man Shik and Tae Rie covered their relationship but I think we did not see all of this or I wish because for example when the cockroach guy tried to forced Tae Rie into a relationship and Yeol Chan saved her I was hoping Man shick saw all the scene because he was also worried to let his daughter with a guy. That would explain too why Man Shik get really nice with Yeol Chan I thought it was because he recognized his past mistakes and because Yeol Chan was nice but now that I think about it I think there is something more but weel we will see !
If you did not watch it yet I can recommend you " 365 days repeat a year " because this drama has a also a smart writting with moment I often misinterpret
After seeing the preview for episode 11 : I think Kang Bae will indeed be possessed by the evil spirit and that…
I think the voice the Bodyguard heard in the preview is from the sacred stone to bé aware of Kang Bae because he is already possessed but it is just a thought I have non proof. I think it would be the wiser/safer/stronger move from the evil spirit because he knows Kang Bae is the " stricker " of the team + he can absord his power + if he learns somehow Kang Bae is the son of wol Joo and Mister Gwi he is the perfect target for his revenge so I think his next target to possess is Kang bae
I'm wondering how everything will be resolved. I hope they don't smush a whole bunch of things into one episode.
After seeing the preview for episode 11 : I think Kang Bae will indeed be possessed by the evil spirit and that is why Yeo Rin feels something is off about him and does not want to take his hand.
So What I think will happen after that : Yeo Rin will talk about her worries with Weol Joo and thanks to that Weol Joo and Chief Gwi will know something is off with Kang Bae. They will confront him and will know about the evil spirit's identity ?
But I wonder how they will find out about Kang Bae ?I means the fact he is probably their son. Perhaps if they go in his dream world they will found out somehow ? I hope too the end will wrap up everything fine because there are a lot going on at the same time.
Look, I love a cheesy rom-com as much as the next person, but I'm a little tired of the mean/arrogant/rich-guy-with-a-secret-heart-of-gold…
Yes I am tired too of love triangle because I have the impression they think romance are the only relationship people can have... And same I don't like most of the time when they show romance where one of the two " order around " or mistreat the other one feeling " and plays the thing like this is what a lot of people are doing and it is " acceptable".
It is not just in Korea culture I also saw it in other medias or culture's series /dramas and it is truly scary when kids for example wants to write or draw a romance story because you can see there are similar in the way they use the toxic relationship like it is the way it should be and do not see the problem with it because it is a " fiction " .
I am glad to see in the last dramas I watched more possibilities and some " fresh air "
Again I do not hate romance, I was too the first one to watch the most popular romantic dramas at first but it is now tiring because you can also talk about family, platonic relationship, relation based on trust but not always romantic, relationship where they heal themselves just with the presence of the other one around without a kiss, ...

Tae Ri said Yeol Chan was lying about how he was really but she does see herself it is worst than just lying about his personality to me
