What I enjoyed about the Episode 10 ending is that now we will never have another clueless Sun Jae. He won't be taken off-guard by "bipolar" Sol and will know exactly what he's dealing with moving forward. What a relief! No more misunderstandings (on his part, at least)!

Also, I was wondering if there's a significance to the number of chances Sol is given to save Sun Jae. Is it because Sun Jae saved her three times? I can only think of two times he did in the original timeline (the phone call, and the kidnapper), but could there be a third time we still don't know about? 🤔

For him to die after everything Im Sol went through? It would just be a lame cheat shot on the writers' part, then. The WHOLE point of the time travel is for her to save Sun Jae, and then to still have him die? *smh* If they tried to pull a "it's about the journey and their time together of them falling love while she tried to save him," I will be very displeased.

Probably! I just can't see how this would be a sad ending, though. Would they change the webtoon that much, and in such a lame way?

I feel like I should know HEA, but what do you mean by that here?

Oh, I probably haven't gotten there yet, I see. Haven't seen Episodes 9 and 10 yet. :)

What was the Boys Over Flowers reference?

They sometimes stuff it in all at the end. 😅

It is all very basic and low budget (though that's to be expected for the format), with a mediocre script and some weird and clunky editing at times (so, who cast the dad of Gun? He's literally half Gun's height/size... 😂).

BUT, the leads have surprisingly good chemistry, despite how little time they have to develop it as well as their characters. Their romantic scenes are definitely the strongest part.

Good thing Go Gun was a nice guy; Cha Se Young decided she liked him before he even opened his mouth and she came on really strong right out of the gate. No one take lessons on finding quality guys this way, though! 😅 He could have turned out to be a boring, selfish jerk, for all she knew!

Don't know why this was R? The gambling?

P.S. Zuho has those feline Asian features like Lee Joong Gi and Hwang In Yeop. Zuho and Joong Gi could be brothers!

Thanks!

And that's mentioned in Episode 9, I assume?

I haven't watched 9 yet, but why is everyone saying that from the Epilogue? Will it make sense if I watch Episode 9? I saw the Epilogue but I don't know how people are getting a confirmed wedding from it. 😂

Didn't My Demon peter out sooner, like Episode 4? And yes, Episodes 9-16 are always the trickiest for screenwriters to stick the landing! These episodes in Kdramas separate the wheat from the chaff....

I still get a kick out of all the athletes struggling on the "hike." 😂😂😂 C'mon guys, are we supposed to think you work out all the time? 🤣

I mean, if a team from TVN picks scripts you think they'd be able to tell the good from the less good; sometimes I wonder how certain dramas can surprise their own network with how good they are. 😅 If that happens, who wasn't doing their job correctly? 🤔😉

After rewatching snippets of Episode 8, because, you know, why not? I decided my favorite part is when they're talking on the phone and she's at the bus stop near his billboard picture and he's in his car. Their chemistry without even being together is SO good, and Byeon Woo Seok was 200% selling Sun Jae being smitten with Sol, and over the phone, no less (his facial expressions were just perfect!). It was a very well done scene; it reminded of the super convincing flirting/chemistry between Zhao Lusi and Chen Zheyuan in Hidden Love.

The trolls and naysayers haven't found it yet! 😅

It seems to be less popular in Korea, yes.

Well, there are real guys who don't give up on someone they've crushed on, but if they're not charismatic, attractive or good-looking they're perceived as creeps, I guess that's what I mean. But as far as the way Sun Jae is portrayed in this, yes, a gem (and too good to be true, if we're honest!).

Oh, that's a good point! It does give it a more nostalgic quality by being set in the early 2000's.
