It was in today's episode. They said that it would take three months for a donor to fully recover - not just from the surgery itself, but for the liver to recover.

So, just my thought for a possible reason they don't get married immediately and a likely time skip. In three months, Hyo Jun will also know if he passed the bar exam, Mi-rim will have popped that baby out and I suppose their wedding will be behind the scenes, Tae Min and Tae Hee can take their vacay together while Tae Ho holds the fort (since he won't be leaving any time soon), Ru-bi will get into some special program or academy

"Midnight Studio" looks to be similar to "May I Help You", although I think there will be more humor involved.

Since my favorite Yoo In Soo is one of the leads (although not romantic) I'll be impatiently waiting for Viki to release every Monday and Tuesday.

Hyo Do has shown maturity recently - he's running the business so successfully that he's opening up a 2nd restaurant.

Vacay with TM?? Hell no - TM and Tae Hee are now there for each other and it's the only loose end I'm looking forward to watching with a neat bow.

The last couple of episodes I felt that Oh Yeon Do entered from stage left and possessed Hyo Shim. Awful stuff and I'm sorry you have to go through it bloomingtide. 😥

A reason? Annswer: to create a couple of "cliffhangers".

A "convincing" reason - They don't need a convincing reason, they just need to have conflict, tension and a couple of cliffhangers - and now apparently she disappears? Good Lord Almighty these last few episodes are the pits. 😊

So, do we get a time skip of 3 months?

I think he'll be a bit closer to Dang-gu in AoS - cheerful, exuberant. That's my hope. 🤞

Okay, I tagged it spoiler, but most of the info in my post was discussed below in open comments. 😊

Thanks for answer and instructions. I just made my request.

"Once again" is on my watchlist but. . . I recently realized that the sugary-sweet, can -do-no-wrong Main Couples are simply not appealing to me and that seems to be the foundation of weekenders.

As you know, I never warmed up to Hyo-Shim - she simply does not "compute" with me. Meanwhile, analytical and reserved Tae Min (Myers Briggs ISTJ) is my exact match. I understood him.

In my mind, LYOL sets itself apart from other weekenders because the "Mystery of Daegwallyeong Pass" didn't rely upon love-lines or family arguments or shrieking mothers - a seeming mainstay of weekenders.

I can't wait to visit Daegwallyeong when we travel to Korea in the next year.

I finally got caught up and was able to watch Ep 13 (Saturday, 3/09) on the same day it aired. This is a mini-response/opinion to . . . whatever.

Re: the plan for 16 episodes, Mental illness (e.g. depression and/or PTSD) is not something that is insta-cured. Thus, I'm glad they are taking a full 16 episodes to explore what "recovery" means in real life. Falling in love (and I do love this couple) is not an insta-cure. From the beginning of the drama, I thought this was the over-arching story - how mental illness can affect anyone - not just "weak" people. Bravo, writers.

Second, am I the only one who suspects that MOM (as in Jeong Woo's mother) is the real culprit? Not simply because of how she raised Jeong Woo, but. . . .she KNEW that Kim Myung Min was lying when he said he was taking "indigestion" medicine and she didn't give a F**K. That entire "normally you wouldn't be good enough to tutor our son but since you are poor, you will be more dependent upon me. . ." I'll pay you extra because. . . . ? I mean, really - she OWNS him.

So, I may be over-thinking that scene, but I always believe there is a reason for certain scenes (specifically, Mom witnessing Myung Min taking "powder") that are meaningless at the time we watch them. Plus, Myung Min told Jeong Woo to "forget the past". So, laying my bet - Mom is the original evil-doer.

I might be wrong, of course. Occasionally I am. 😂😎

Nope. I'm just envious that I didn't think of it first. 🥰

Bonus episode? Have you seen or read anything that indicates it an "add-on" as opposed to stretching out the original plot(s)?

The future appears dim. When does Mi-rim go into labor after a 6 week pregnancy? While Hyo Jun is taking the bar exam or during the wedding?

And I really, really wanted to see Dragon Mom's trial. Maybe she'll fake insanity in order to end up in plusher surroundings.

Ratings weren't great for Ep. 48 - but then, why watch after the villains were hauled away in Episode 47? Today's "cliffhanger" was a dud.

I spit out my drink!

"make it official" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm expecting the two ghost helpers to fade away or "pass over" at the end. 😥😥😥

Yes, I think so although it looks like there will be more humor in this one.

Two days. Just two days.

Meanwhile, here's a brief excerpt from a radio show with Joo Won and Kwon Na-ra where they talk about my favorite Yoo In Soo.

Joo Won: "I think Insoo is the best actor out of all male actors in their 20s."

You got that right JW. 😊

Well, his appearance does smarten up quite a bit once he ditches the baggy suits.

It was the way the preview was worded - translated as "incident". But, as I mentioned above, it was clear today that the promotions were because of a "company" matter, not the family/murder one.

But one of the best actresses ever - Song Ya Hoon was incredible in this role.
