Okay so that ending completely changes the dynamic of Sol and Tae Sung....like my guy is listening to her pine over someone who most likely had nothing to do with her. And if Sol had stayed around long enough to impart some wisdom to Tae Sung he would have been in deep.....duuuudddeeee. I don't have any kind of 2nd lead syndrome, but the writers are foul for that.
I've been stuck in a waiting room for almost 3 hours(car maintenance) .....send help. I just want my laptop or my tv....my phone is too small to watch episode 13 for the first time😭😫😭🥺🥺
One of my theories is that Gwi Joo will start to wear the ring after Dong Hee finds it amongst Da Hae's belongings. He'll be wearing it when he goes back to the day Yi Na was born/the school fire. In Da Hae's dazed confusion, because smoke inhalation, she'll grab at the ring on Gwi Joo's hand...before she can return it he goes back to the present. I don't see it in her hands at the hospital, but it could have been slipped into a pocket or something. Something that has been on my mind as well is either his friend gets to her first and helps her with oxygen or Gwi Joo is smart enough to bring some with him when he goes back....though running all that way with an oxygen tank seems like a lot at least for right now. I've been trying to figure out why he doesn't go back to when he first got the phone call about becoming a father. He would be closer to the school being at the firehouse, with enough time to get there to find an entrance he can go through. But maybe that memory is tainted too much with his friend taking his shift for him. Also whatever the hell Yi Na's mother thought before she died really messed with Yi Na. Did she crash the car on purpose? Did Yi Na verbalize what her mother was thinking thus distracting her? Or was the sun just to bright coming out of the tunnel while being emotional about Gwi Joo disappearing into the past again. Did she think about Yi Na never being born because it would mean Gwi Joo wouldn't disappear all the time back to her birth? That reveal is going to be brutal.
I really need to give Kim Hye Yoon her flowers. The subtle acting when it comes to her feelings about Ryu Sun Jae is so well done. You can actually see when her love switches from fan/savior-love/admiration into romantic feelings. They are both doing such an amazing job with conveying feelings with just their eyes and when/how they choose to breathe. Stay with me. Breath in a scene is the tension builder/tone setter. The way one chooses to pause can say more than a thousand words ever could. The director of this show needs all the awards because he is truly honed in on what level the characters should be at for each scene and makes sure the actors get there.

Okay, please forgive me, but you have unlocked the thing that I have been thinking about a lot lately as I keep track of everything I watch. Spoiler tag because long comment. If you are used to Kdramas think about it this way. A 24 episode Cdrama is the average length of a 16 episode kdrama. (40min runtime for a Cdrama vs. 60min kdrama) Thai and Japanese dramas are generally the shortest runtime as they tend to average about 10hours in total length. Chinese dramas have about 2mins before and 3-4 minutes after each show for intro/outro. Also also, Youtube FMV editors do a really good job condensing the love stories if you ever just want to experience the vibe of the show rather than watch the whole thing. If you ever have any general/specific questions about a drama I've seen I'd be happy to help answer them. If you enjoyed the Reply series from Korea I would also recommend 'Go Ahead'. Or you could just wait for it's Korean adaption which will be 'Family by Choice'
I just know that on May 4th they catch Im Sol's bestie and brother. If they put the birthday date in later in the day it could work....okay stopping mid thought because if Sun Jae looked at his phone after midnight it would have read the 4th. And would explain why her necklace isn't in the scenes prior but does appear around her neck on the 5th. But why are they going to school on a Sunday? I am confused. Okay I swear to god those police files/dates are the bane of my existence. Multiple errors in production involve the timestamps/dates on the police files/footage. looking at you future CCTV LOOKING AT YOU!
Is the namuwiki run by the production or is it like Wikipedia where anyone can write in? Because the police file shows her birthdate as May 3rd 1990 in episode 9 at 34:35
Her birthdate is listed on a police file in I believe episode 9 or 10. Looking it up now...Ryu Sun Jae's birthdate appears in episode 9 at 5:30mins in...Im Sol's birthdate appears in the same episode at 34:45 on the police file.

my question is how they will integrate these feelings into 19 yr old sol... So far it felt like she is discarded…
I figure they are going to use the trauma of dealing with Kim Young Soo as a way to explain why she doesn't really know Sun Jae...at least to her family. Only Tae Sung and Sun Jae will know that they shouldn't interfere with young Sol. Her family and classmates are the ones I'm worried about. Because once Ryu Sun Jae becomes famous....wouldn't people question Im Sol if they were still together....etc. That alone sounds traumatizing tbh.
So in case it's not clear for people. Next weeks episodes will be flashing back to May 3rd, Im Sol's 19th birthday. Edit: or May 4th...we shall see...lets just say whomever is in charge of continuity on this production is not giving the level of neurodivergence this line of work requires...😮💨🧐
so this has got to be the biggest joke. I went to hit save of the ep11 update only for my wifi/internet to stop working...it didn't work at all last night so I've been extremely delayed in getting things updated. 🙃 I need to leave for work....I am just 😭😭😭 I use my laptop for the discussion because I add a lot of links within & trying to do that on a cellphone is a headache. 😫 I did not just spend and hour of my morning double checking things just for the internet to crap out 30 seconds before publishing...I need to go.
They first kiss in episode 26. It's a good kiss scene. The only other kiss I've seen from the main leads is episode…
I've watched shows where they don't kiss until episode 34, but those are the epic love story slow burns with lots and lots of tension and story building. This one is definitely a family drama which I knew going in. It's just I didn't realize how much I would dislike the family member they are keeping a main focus on throughout the show.
They first kiss in episode 26. It's a good kiss scene. The only other kiss I've seen from the main leads is episode 28. I'm stuck on episode 35 as the plot has just gone off the rails into something that I should care about but don't.
Something that has been on my mind as well is either his friend gets to her first and helps her with oxygen or Gwi Joo is smart enough to bring some with him when he goes back....though running all that way with an oxygen tank seems like a lot at least for right now.
