Ngl, I laughed at Chun Ki's interpretation of the horse. I mean I know art is subjective but my brain would have not linked butterflies and horses like Prince Yang Myung did.
I'm a sucker for nice male leads. The fact that the 2nd male lead here seems really nice makes it hard for me to accept that one of them has to get his heart broken for the other to be happy.

But what would the plot be about? Unpopular opinion, they didn't need to drag out the story to 3 seasons. If they will bring the same villains again in the next season, I'll be so done. (I'll still check it out though lol)
I'm pleasantly surprised with this version. I actually really liked it. Huh, kind of astonishing since this is a remake. I guess the 10 ep format really helped with the faster development of the show.
Ahhh I wanted to see the reactions of both AJH and Gyeul after the kiss. But knowing that AJH got so giddy the moment he arrived at his apartment. That scene made my cheeks hurt from smiling.
And when they went on that date where AJH subtly dropped hints that he has been noticing Gyeul for the longest time, knowing her likes and schedule. He's whipped to the point that it's safe to assume he can't say no to her. For someone who does not have many experiences with women, he is also so smooth. Ahhhh
Also, based on their limited scenes together, it would also seem that they have a healthy relationship. They know how to draw the line between their time together at work and during their leisure.
Maybe I needed to watch the 1st season all over again, so I would have had a more seamless transition to the 2nd season. Nonetheless, I liked the 1st ep of the new season (courtesy mostly of the wintergarden scenes), but ngl, I did expect something more. Idk, this ep doesn't seem like a premiere of a new season more like another new weekly episode. I like that it wasn't awkward if you plan to binge-watch all the seasons since it literally continued where you left off but at the same time I wanted the start the new season with a bang.
I don't really understand the dynamics of the marble.
Here is what I got to understand or theorize so far: 1.) In the 300th year into the life of the gumiho, a red marble appears. The gumiho will need enough human "essence" to turn the shade into blue. Only then will the gumiho become human. 2.) The marble can be transferred through a kiss (?) and taken the same way too (?). 3.) Technically, the marble can be retrieved "safely" when the human host dies. So, SWY do not have to worry for this matter, but for some reason, he doesn't want another person dying. Maybe because it's hinted that he saw a person he loved die (?) and it traumatized him (?). 4.) YHS says that SWY isn't sure if he wants to be human after what happened to him in the past. The reason could be related to #3.
So, I'm really confused with the last scene. In a flashback, YHS said, that SWY knows how to get the marble from LD, but she wonders why he hasn't done it yet. In the present, SWY holds LD's hand and sees the marble in a red color. When he saw this he was going to kiss her and he said she won't remember a thing in the morning. When he was so close to kiss her, the marble suddenly turned into a blue shade and he stopped. Then he hugged her. Now, I have the following questions:
1.) Why did the marble change color suddenly? Does that mean that the marble is getting LD's human "essence"? 2.) Why did he hug her when it turned blue? What significance does it hold other than it will turn him human? Obviously there's more to this marble and it's importance. 3.) Does SWY want to fall in love and is this the reason why he's holding on to her?
Probably an unpopular opinion , but someone needs to die. For real this time without the resurrection card the writer's love. It sounds so sadistic, but this is becoming very predictable. It would leave a deeper mark if one of the main characters die.
JJW is probably a psychopath and although psychopaths can establish romantic relationships, I don't think it would be the traditional kind of partnership. So what does he see in HCY? He is clearly apathetic and cold-blooded to most people but for some reason he is different to HCY. He continuously tries to deviate her from harm. And I know that he also tries to "save" his brother but as a psychopath he does this for a calculated reason. I don't think he genuinely cares for him. So what's with HCY? Is this some sort of obsession? And what started this fixation? (Hopefully we'll find out in the succeeding eps.)
Honestly, I like how this show is getting darker and darker. It would have been really lame if a consigliere of a mafia didn't start doing what he is known to be, a killer. Honestly I like SJK as Vincenzo: an anti-hero. He has such a soft face but his aura just screams kill which is perfect for a person who lives a life in shades of grey, not being good nor being too bad.
KWH was really mean to CYS tho. It was 3 years. He clung to her for 3 years. I know CYS was the one who said that it doesn't matter how long it will take but c'mon 3 years. That was just really selfish.

I hope they don't break up.

WE DID NOT EVEN GET A DATE!!! and she's dead????
I thought they were playing when they said their love story was like Romeo and Juliet. I didn't think one of them needed to die!?!?!?!?!?!?
