In the flashback when old Sol says she can no more keep seeing sunjae they both looked like they were in college.…
I interpreted that scene as him trying to check up on her (probably quite often) and Sol finally telling him to back off cause she couldn't handle it, as it kept reminding her of her accident. Though I don't know what she'd remember? It was adult Sol who went through it, so young Sol would have had no memory of the events that took place.
In each timeline, it seems like he falls for her cuteness first--and thinks it's adorable (even though she IS kind of nuts so much of the time)--and then when she's earnest and serious about protecting him he just falls headlong and is completely undone. π
Why did the taxi driver kidnap her in the first place, in BOTH timelines? Was he just being a creep preying on…
You may be right! I suppose serial killers don't need reasons, but it would make the story more interesting for him to have one. And yes, they were definitely wanting us to notice the 14 vs. 15 years, and the grandma remembering her in a wheelchair in the present timeline. More to be revealed, I guess!
It doesn't look like Episode 8 will have another time skip, so why is everyone saying she'll go back? Cause there's…
Why did the taxi driver kidnap her in the first place, in BOTH timelines? Was he just being a creep preying on random girls who were alone? Wouldn't we have heard about more missing/kidnapped girls, if so? And then in the original timeline he just ran into her with his car--why? He didn't even try to hide his face from Sun Jae afterwards, so if he was worried about her snitching, he should have tried to hide himself from Sun Jae better, too. Still a bit confused by our creepy taxi dude...
It doesn't look like Episode 8 will have another time skip, so why is everyone saying she'll go back? Cause there's footage from trailers of them in the past which haven't been shown yet?
Does it seem like Sun Jae is picking up on something fishy with Sol in the original timeline, and putting the pieces together about her in one moment being familiar with him to suddenly not knowing him? It's a wonder he doesn't just think she's nuts. π
Also, Sol in the present is so gorgeous and lovely. π₯°
Episode 8 is when the Kdrama formula says couples get together or kiss, so, we'll see if tomorrow's episode follows form. π
My only gripe was I wanted more of them together in the present timeline rather than constantly missing each other. But it was funny, all the misunderstandings. It helped slow the pace down a bit. It was basically a filler episode (though it didn't feel like one) or an episode catching us up on the changes in their "fixed" lives.
How did Sol make it so that In Hyuk and Sun Jae were on better terms in this new present? (They totally bated us with that bath scene! π )
Agree. I want people to be more grateful for the writer eventhough some of her decision in this writing is questionable…
I need to see EAW, too, I just bungled things by watching snippets on Netflix and spoiling the story for myself, so it lowered my motivation to finish it. Whoops!
But DO watch CLOY, it's not a perfect drama, but extremely beloved for a reason (I think it got many, MANY people hooked on Kdramas (myself included)), and is just so beautiful and heartwarming. If you liked this well enough, I think you'll adore CLOY (it also holds up really well under rewatches, minus some of the side characters who I admit I do skip now when I rewatch it).
If you don't go into this season/part with expectations for what you WANT this season/part to be/do (beyond a happy ending), then you will most likely enjoy it. It's not perfect (neither was the first part), but it's still an excellent drama!
Keep in mind the FL and ML reverse/flip-flop roles from one season to the next.
So, LR, don't go downhill, please don't go downhill... π
