I don't think smileboy took the photo. In Ep. 10 (Mark 35) KMH scrolled through her tablet and came to a prior email from "sosospecial_kmh" (aka Salty Lady) thru the anti-fan site. It was the photo and the Luca drawing, She is the only one who could have taken that photo. Perhaps it was in the chat room, but it looked like email trail to me. She said "Here's my special present" (TVN) /"I'm dispatching you a special gift "(Viki). Smileboy replied "Do you live next door to him? Isnt' that his home in the photo?" When Smileboy created the draft gossip article (at the end of Ep. 9), the subs say "Made w/a photo from SoSweet. Won't this cause a stir?"(TVN)/"made w/a photo from Source Special. This reveal will cause a riot right"(Viki).

And yes, I spent a couple of hours last week comparing the TVN/Viki subs in these scenes to try and figure out who did what and in what sequence because it was so confusing.

They are working together but I don't think they know each other personally. My guess is that Lee Yoon Wu was one of Salty Lady's "special" friends/actors - leestar127. I think SHE was somehow related to his death, however it may have occurred. And that will be the big reveal in the Ep. 13/14/15 episodes. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 😃😎😃😎

Thanks - I thought smileboy sent the gossip/speculation to the reporters in Ep. 10 (from the cemetary). We don't know Min-kyu's relation to Lee Yoon Woo (Actor Luca), but I do think Lee Yoon Woo was one of Salty Lady's "Special" boys - leestar137.

I apologize for asking questions, but I probably won't be able to watch the Eng Sub version of Ep 11 and 12 until Sunday (and won't be able to watch Ep. 12 live feed). I thought they cleared up the "hug" photo early in the episode. So, it's now several days later and the media is once again re-focusing on this? we're still waiting for the Luca "Dad" drawing to appear as well. I should probably just avoid Shooting Stars message boards for the next days and focus on From Now On Showtime (which I will be able to watch!).

I thought they were having a staring contest to see who would blink first.🤣🤣 The kisses were very nice.

Watching Jin Ki-joo (from my other favorite show From Now On Showtime) laughing hysterically o the phone with Park So-Jin was hilarious even though I didn't understand a single word.

"but what i am sure of is that the salty mom will share that pic with the revenge guy,"

I'm not sure which photo you are referring to. She already shared the photo of GTS/Mom and the Luca drawing of "Dad" w/smileboy (Min-kyu) in the anti-fan site. Either via email or chat room - I can't determine which. Is there a current photo of GTS with OHB? We haven't seen it yet. Which make me wonder - WHO shared the photo of their college promotional cover??? Was it Salty Lady - she's the only one that had access (that we know of). Or, just a rnadom poster that we will never hear about?

"But I'm sure once people learn about their relationship, People are going to bash OHB :("
This scenario - the GTS fans "attacking" OHB (verbally/on-line/physically) absolutely is a given for this series. It is a mainstay (cliche/trope/whatever) of all K-dramas that involve a celebrity. It is unavoidable. I envision scenes of GTS regretting declaring his love for OHB since it has negative consequences. But this Super Couple will survive and be stronger. If writers insert a "break-up", I will be disappointed - too tropey; too cliche; too pedestrian).

While re-watching Ep. 10 scenes of Salty Mom, I took a double look (TNT and Viki) from "three years ago" (Minute 39). The first "special" actor was identified as "leestar137" on Instagram and he posted "I think these shoes will take me to a special place." He also sent her a text message (Viki identified sender as "Lee Wu Hyeok") that said "Nuna, I really like you a lot❤".

That text message to Salty Mom was borderline affectionate.

Any chance leestar137/Lee Wu Hyeok is actually Lee Yoon-woo (friend who died)?

The airport scene was over a year ago, so not relevant to the gossip tabloids today? I'm guessing their relationship will become a big story in Ep 13/14. after they deal with "Late Night Love affair" and "GTS has child in Africa"

At this point, who knows for a fact that GTS and OHB are a couple/"dating"??? Salty Mom, KUS (manager) and Lawyer. Did she tell Ki-0bum (reporter)?

Smileboy doesn't know yet and he seems to respect/admire OHB - so will he go along with any plan that will target her?

He's also "smileboy" in the antifan chat room.

Re: the crispy food, it was "dipping" versus "pour over". And since I dislike pineapple on pizza, I felt sorry for Taesung. So, does Jeong Yeol know that they are a couple or does he think GTS is still in his prove-his-love phase?

It took me awhile to figure out what Da Hye was up to (the TMI was based on OHB's Instagram, right?), but I'm fearful that when the story moves to GTS superfans hating on OHB (and you know it will - it's a classic in k-dramas involving celebrities), sweet Da Hye will turn into a monster.

I loved this drama (cinematography, characters, etc) until watching what I believed to be a very "flat" unemotional ending w/the Main Couple - and I really enjoyed the Main Couple throughout the episodes until the last few minutes. And then (thanks to Viki Scribers who urged viewers to watch to the last scene) ) I watched to the very end. This series deserved a 2nd season follow-up. I'm rating it a 7 star. So sorry there will not be a follow-up.

As far as the audience is concerned, there are only two "official couples": Main couple (GTS and OHB) and what I will call the "enemy" couple (Jae Hyun and Yu-na). However. . . . .there is at least one "secret" couple (not official but all viewers know who) plus two or three potential couples. This show is a mixture of romance, comedy, inside jokes (most of which go over my head but if you enjoy K-drama, you will probably enjoy) and a bit of mystery.

After initiating myself into K-dramas w/in the last 4 months, I've decided that FNOS (plus Crazy Love and Shooting Stars) are the perfect combination for me: Romance, comedy, large ensemble cast w/their own history/back-stories, small vignettes that are sprinkled throughout the series and one overall story arc that begins and ends w/in 16 episodes. AND NO "tragedy"/sad ending. It takes real skill and talent for writers and producers to put everything together(especially the comedy) that doesn't take cheap/easy shots and maintains consistency between the various characters and stories. I've watched other k-dramas (Netflix and Viki) and almost all ran out of steam by episode 13 or 14 and the rest was filler/nonsense so they could get to the fixed Ep. 16. Even Business Proposal went off the rails - and it only needed to complete TWELVE episodes. FNOS is truly brilliant and eventually, it will become a classic.

I have the same wish - that Officer Lee will be involved in the final battle, together with Ye-Ji (and the rest of the team). I'm worried about Grandma though - the next full moon is only a few days away, correct? Maybe her death(or severe injury) will make Ye-Ri an avenging angel.

The show has been hinting for weeks that GTS is ill. Whether it is medical/physical (fever/fatigue) or psychological/stress-induced is unclear.

Oh, my adorable Cheon Ye Ji - when will you ever learn? You just made an enemy of your future mother-in-law. I'm glad we got to see another side of her though - she truly loves her grandmother. Deep down, you're a decent person.

And Officer Lee Yong Ryeol - you know Ye Ji professes to be greedy and impetuous, but you never flaunted your wealth in order to gain her "affection". You want to win her on your own merits. I'm still surprised that he doesn't manifest a 7 channel aura.

He's on the main poster for the show so I think he's safe. Crossing fingers. I hope he is part of the team that destroys the Evil Spirit. Not just a catalyst for shaman girl to understand her feelings, but actually part of the team. I wonder if he has Seven Channel virtue tower - Has Choi Gum ever met him/seen him?

I'm looking forward to Ep. 10 - especially after watching the pre-release posted by wongaini up above.

Do you think they want to leave? (say farewell?). Reum has already "paid her debt" or is free to leave (not sure what CCW started to say to her a few episodes ago) and nothing makes her happier than working with electronics/solving difficult problems. Sang gun is happy looking over his family (and I'm beginning to wonder if his daughter will make an appearance at some point). Finally, Gyu Pil may or may not want to leave. The only one I'm convinced will leave is Choi Gum once the virtue fan is completed w/the destruction of the Evil Spirit.
