Guys, stop whining about bed scenes. We already got like 2-3 of them. πBut in G rated. π
So, the question is (for me) - would a bed scene make any difference to the overall plot, story arcs, the mental health issues? Answer: No. Was it necessary to demonstrate NGJ and LSA's love and devotion to each other? No.
In Kdrama world, would there have been anything hotter than the two swoonworthy kisses viewers already blessed with? No.
It was great decision by the writers and much, much better decision than the last-minute forced/unscripted bed scene in A Business Proposal.
CEO PARK is horrible at keeping secrets π€£ lmaoYay Mr PI appeared!These are not spoilers so not tagging. Hahahaha…
The last 10 minutes were perfect but wish LSA's father had been on for a few minutes (instead we get Segi's dad). Too much BSY. Nice wrap-up for all of the main characters (even LSA's dopey brother). Too much BSY.
Before the end of this show - which has become an obsession for me (and others here???), I would be interested in knowing what series my fellow MDL'ers will be watching in the near future. I love the romance and the comedies - and a happy ending is absolutely required. Too much heartbreak in the world this instance (Ukraine, Afghanistan) and I need a few hours of positive happiness in my days. I have tried to find series such as "What's wrong with Secretary Kim" and "Mr. Queen" but they don't appear to be available to me (USA) right now. I will miss this very special community - as I told Catteurus several weeks ago - I feel like I found my K/drama home here on MDL. I will probably re-post this request in a day or so, but please feel free to provide thoughts right now. Off to bed so that I can rise early (for me) to watch the lovely Finale episode. Cyber Hugs to all of you Crazy Lovers!!πππππ.
So why can't I find it on Disney+ ? I have a subscription but still can't find it. Any ideas/suggestions?!
Yesterday, I asked for help (thanks to Elif Kim for guidance) because I had a Disney+ (US) subscription but couldn't access early like everyone else. Had to purchase a VPN - took several hours to figure it out and in the end my hubby needed to reboot our router to make it work. With only one episode to go, you might try DramaCool - might have problems for a couple of hours after release (GMT+8) but should be good after that .

No idea what they said but if they aren't on their way to the bedroom I will eat the proverbial hat. Thank you for posting/sharing. Another VERY early morning for me.
Edit - and it' s incredibly sweet, cute and loving - and I still don't know what they are saying.
This drama actually turned out to be more serious than we thought. It conveys deep messages in quite dramatic…
I really - REALLY - miss the crazy stuff. I miss the scenes where I should NOT have been drinking coffee at the time -keyboard cleanup required a couple of times. Today's show, the only "crazy/silly" stuff was LSA's brother and girlfriend - big cringe as we await for a bit more passion for our couple. I don't mind the serious or deep messages, but I miss the " "crazy" bits.
I donβt excuse Go Jinβs harsh words or past attitude. He seem to be a perfectionist with a very small tolerance…
βGo Jin 12 years ago was also accused falsely, but he fought his way back and created Go Top and became the top math instructor in Korea.β
THIS!πππNot everyone is a genius who can claw their way back to the top of the top, but . . . .in the darkest, darkest days of my life, my mantra was βI am a survivor, not a victimβ. I am a survivor, not a victim. I never voiced this to my children, but tried to set the example and they also get it: they will survive β they refuse to be victims. I am so proud of them.
βShe also realized that he was not the cause of her misdiagnosed illness. And that the life she was experiencing was a result of the choices she made.β So wonderful to see Shin-ah recognize that she could survive β she would not be a victim (and this was when she still believed she didnβt have long to live).
These are the reasons I love this show β thank you kapkid for your analysis and insight. Itβs why I adore this series, even if a bit disappointed in a few of the missed opportunities and β to my regret β the apparent rehabilitation of that both BSY and that dumbf**k Se-gi.
Segi is a fucking idiot and turncoat. Like he is a lifelong friend of NGJ and all it took to turn on him was a…
Agree! He may not be as evil as SJo, but he is still rotten. He was embezzling money back in December 2021! And all of a sudden we get back to the bromance based on Ep 16 preview? I'm fine with forgiving the secretaries, instructors - even stalker girl because their pain was due to his treatment of them. But NGJ is not at fault with Se-gi or BSY and they need to be the ones asking for HIS forgiveness.
"Both of them want to avenge her death when one has been absent when it mattered most and another is mostly to…
"but likely Sehee death has been haunting him and he may be in denial."
I was just re-watching - trying to recall sequence of events in 2022 since so much of the show was flashbacks. He pulled out her phone and looked at the photos of them together - so you are right, her death has been haunting him. He then flashbacked to the Kang Min scenes - and then said something like he failed before so needed to keep going. Called someone and said "proceed". We all figured out that Se-gi's revenge plot was new (a few months ago), but perhaps , in the end, it is SJo that has been plotting revenge for 6 years. Se-hee begged NGJ for forgiveness - he refused.
Wish I could understand Korean and guess will need to wait until sub version of Ep 16 is released, but is that Lee Shin-ah with the mask meeting with Park? Methinks she ends up teaching at Ilpum Edu - which would be a very nice touch.
Loved the 30,000 views AND the fact that NGJ is on to her. Big smiles for those scenes.πππ
"Both of them want to avenge her death when one has been absent when it mattered most and another is mostly to…
I was hoping that the mystery wouldn't end up on this lame note. Why does he want kill GNJ now - after 6 years? I guess he tried the Kang Min hit-and-run play - but even that is lame because there was no way he could predict that NGJ would end up that night in the middle of the street "dead". So, I guess I must allow the writers these small non-explanations since all events led to a very special and crazy couple.
And how did he end up with BSY? Where did his $$$ come from to pull all of this off?
So many questions :/How was SJo caught plagiarizing and blacklisted if Sehee took the truth with her? How dumb…
"Both of them want to avenge her death when one has been absent when it mattered most and another is mostly to blame for it." Did you get this (SJo wanting to avenge her death) from the preview?
A whole lot of people in this show have said and done things that led to suicide/almost suicide - BSY, SJo and NGJ.
In Kdrama world, would there have been anything hotter than the two swoonworthy kisses viewers already blessed with? No.
It was great decision by the writers and much, much better decision than the last-minute forced/unscripted bed scene in A Business Proposal.

Very insightful post.
