Seung Yeon...sigh. I didn't know it was possible to have even less respect for you than after the last episode, but here I am at -100 lol ๐. Now you "just" want to expres your feelings to the guy you like, who btw can't escape from it, and keeps telling you to back off to no avail. Cuz believe me, he would not answer the phone on the outside if you called. But in a few years you will do the same shit to an actual couple. You just do what you want, disregarding people's feelings, and - as per your own words - don't expect anything from it. I don't want to be passing judgement, but it sounds to me like you really want to become a home wrecker in the future, and are trying to play it off as "being in love".
That's where people get delusional. Put yourself in his shoes. If he had said he wanted nothing to do with her people would've said he's a douche, and that he could've said that in a nicer way. It's a no even if you're polite. His was a very direct "no", IMO.
He kinda did though. He said he was under the impression that it was clear that he had been showing interest in one girl only. You obviously don't know Koreans. A Korean would never say it directly. It would've been immensely impolite, according to Korean standards, had he actually said it.
What amazes me about this show is that it is decently filmed and the actors are good-looking, but it lacks absolutely any substance whatsoever. It's basically about...nothing.
Yooo, hands down the best show this year. But honestly, based on what people are saying, I hope s2 strays from the webtoon story (I haven't read), and Soo Ho legit appears in it. Would be a waste if he didn't.
RainPayu 100/10 SkyPrapai...meh 7.5/10 The ending was rushed. Also they could've done something about the perpetrators. Like come on....๐
For me, the first 7 episodes were like DAMN. The latter 6 were...let's say a decent spin-off, but definitely nothing that I was overly excited to watch. My bf actually kinda forced me to finish them cuz I dozed off during ep 8.
But I mean...bring back RainPayu and you got my attention back ๐๐
The acting skills are below zero. I mean please...that crying by Ping (Nhai) made me go "wtf am I even watching". My bf was literally rolling on the bed laughing hysterically, it was so dumb.
But the story is cute. Promising. Points for the fact that we didn't have to wait 11 episodes for them to barely kiss. I like people who aren't afraid to communicate openly, and go after what they want. I was almost about to drop this show, but it looks like I might give it a fighting chance...
I do think it's based on the creator's "life experience" (or as you said, at least the viewpoints/message). At…
With In you say....that honestly I would not have guessed, had you asked me. I wonder if it's truly autobiographical. If it is, at least his boy has an answer, if a belated one. You do need courage tho, to make a show like this based on your own experience, especially if you'd been in In's position. My bet for whose memories the story could be based on was on Wang. But perhaps In makes more sense. Wang would've probably told the story a bit differently...
Of course she was talking, and haven't even noticed Wang's tears. This was very intentional, it was like a cheery…
LMAO Same. I hated that question. The beauty of art is that everyone can interpret it differently, as long as there is room for that interpretation. Anyway, in my understanding it's nothing new, even today there are gay men who marry women, for various reasons. Usually because they need a cover for their actual sexual orientation ๐๐๐ Don't even get me started on what I think about that ๐

Ok, perhaps I worded it imprecisely. She does notice, but she doesn't care cuz she won & that's more important to her than his feelings. Also, I'm not sure she really knows he is suffering. She knows he isn't happy, but narcissist people lack the ability to sympathize with others and notice deep feelings. They only see what is blatantly obvious and in plain sight. E.g. if you tell them you are deeply depressed, they will acknowledge it, but if you go to a party with friends and stop actively communicating how depressed you still are (even if it happens the next day), they will just assume you're fine. They won't ask you if you're fine, like any healthy person would, they will just assume no visible signs of depression=no depression. That's because as long as something doesn't visibly affect their world, they don't notice it, they just don't care. And everything in how Mol's been portrayed points towards her being a narcissist.
So the first thought I had after finishing this was to find the writer and appear in front of them with a blank…
Of course she was talking, and haven't even noticed Wang's tears. This was very intentional, it was like a cheery on top, to emphasize exactly who she was. That's how the character was written. She was a narcissist. To her this ending was a happy ending, she got what she wanted. Narcissists don't care how anybody else feels, as long as they are content.
Definitely feels like it's based, at least loosely, on somebody's life experience. Perhaps not the premise, nor the details of the plot, but definitely the different viewpoints presented by characters, and especially the message that the ending is sending feel very personal. As if somebody was trying to get the bitter moral of this story through to others, in order to avoid the scenario repeating itself.
As a gay man in my 20s who has always been fully at ease and proud of who I am, I feel very strongly for Wang's character, and whoever has had or has to face such problems in real life. This show hits hard, and makes me appreciate my life even more, makes me very grateful to have been brought up in a supportive environment, cuz honestly... it could've been me facing those problems. When I think about it, not that much separates me and Wang, in terms of character. Of course, there are some major differences - as my life path is completely different, and he's a fictional character and therefore we only get to see a small part of him - but we share many basic character traits, which is why this story feels even more raw to me. I have nothing but respect for Wang.
I know it's false hope, but I hope nobody has to go through anything similar going forward. Life is brutal, yo...
