I think it's more likely that the used to date but don't anymore. If the husband was cheating on her, I think the writers would have dropped a few hints here and there.

It's time for a restraining order.

If they aren't now, I think they were before.

I don't know the book at all, but compared to the earlier, shorter series this one seems to include more "side stories" like the invention contest. I don't remember there being an author event in the other series either. (They've been building up to that for such a long time, I hope it happens soon.)

So I'm guessing that this version might be a more complete adaptation of the book.

One of the pleasures of the earlier series was watching Bai Li gradually gain self-respect and independence. I hope that will happen here too.

Lame.

The plot didn't advance very much this week. It was a good travel advertisement for Chiang Mai, though.

For all its flaws I'm okay with the series. Cute boys and a chill atmosphere -- no villains, and female characters who are fully realized instead of being there to serve as plot devices to drive the men together. I really like Nam.

Very helpful, thank you.

I've also noticed that Cupid now can appear in photos. In an earlier episode, a pic that was taken of him showed only empty space where he was standing.

(But I think it's just a continuity/script error ... ;)

I submitted a more flattering picture but it was rejected because the rules say we can't change the picture just because we don't think it's flattering.

I agree with you though. Whoever got there first done him wrong.

My first impulse is to say that some people don't recognize greatness when it's put right in front of them.

But I also think people sometimes need to find fault no matter what. For this drama I've seen reviewers that lowered their rating because the series is too short, or because only the final kiss is passionate, or because they couldn't discern any tears when Ji Woo was crying. (That last one cost the series a half-point -- for a moment that lasts less than 30 seconds!)

I know everyone is entitled to their opinion but it bothers me because fickleness like this does lower the rating and makes it less likely that other members will discover the series. We need more productions like this.

I loved it, although it had an emotional effect on me that I still don't understand.

The twist at the end, revealing Yoo Han's condition and its symmetry with Yeon Woo's, was brilliant.

I know some people complained that we weren't told about it until the very end, but there are movies like that, where a key detail is revealed that way. It puts everything that came before it in a different light, and might even make you want to rewatch the whole thing so you can notice what got past you before.

I think that's so cool!

Yoo Han's voice fascinated me for the same reasons.

When you rewatch the first episode after completing the series and you know about Yoo Han's condition, the moment when he first looks up and notices Yeon Woo in the classroom hits in a completely different way.

You are the #1 fan here, cannot be disputed .. thanks for all your work on behalf of the series and our enjoyment of it

Thanks for the info!

First episode was more coherent than 'So Much In Love,' probably because they don't get too ambitious here by adding a ghost story and an evil school administrator plotting to destroy a volleyball team.

As usual the 'brothers' are stepbrothers and not blood-related. It's great to see Folk again. He was my favorite in 'Thank God Its Friday'.

Not thrilled with the teacher-student pairing though.

stepbrothers

Too bad about no subs. =(

In a word, a masterpiece.

I like how this version of the drama played out the raincoat situation. LZ was caught in the act of concocting a situation. At this point in the series I have less and less sympathy for her. The LZ in the other drama is more my style.
