Anyone else have a horrible feeling that her first crush/idol, Tae Sung, might have died while saving her? The mom was too shifty when answering her questions about the name of the person who saved her. As though knowing who saved her might hurt her in some way. If she can't really remember what happened she might have suffered even more memory loss than what we've been told so far. She might have forgotten a friendship/relationship with the one who saved her.

I think it might actually be Tae Sung that saved her and that he didn't make it. Her friend mentioned that after her accident it was said that he got into a group fight and they covered it up with him dropping out of school. So I wonder if both boys were present during the accident. Whether or not her memory issues are greater than her mother and friend let on. But I definitely think that he joined his friend's band because she had a crush on a musician and he wanted her to like him too.

I really think that it wasn't a purposeful death. Likely an accident or manslaughter. We don't see the exact time of everything we just know that at midnight he is declared deceased. I don't quite know why he was staying in a hotel instead of his own place, so that might play into it as well. But I don't think he was alone in the hotel room.
I wonder if we'll be getting more flashbacks from the original timeline. As she changes things in the future after the time slip will items be added and removed from the table?
I'm so excited to find out how they are going to write this.
I know there is an original Web Novel but I haven't read it. And since how most of these show adaptations change things for the screen I don't know if knowing the web novel will help unravel this plot point any sooner.

Real MVP right here yall. Blessings.🥰🥰🥰🥰

Potential spoilers because of hypothesizing in comment below.

Yeah, with the knocking on the door, I just don't think he actually ever jumped himself.

After the first two episodes these are some questions I hope to be answered later on in the show.

Did the radio have her number to call, or did Sun Jae give them the number to call in the first episode?
Did Sun Jae recognize her on the side of the road after the concert after 15 years?
Who was the one who tried to save her when she had her accident?
Is Tae Sung still alive in present day?
Who was at the door of the hotel the night Sun Jae died? And did they play a more vital role in his death? Aka did Sun Jae actually jump or was he pushed?

Can't wait to see how their relationship develops. I love that he liked her first. It also explains why he wasn't as freaked out by her as one would be in his situation.

I don't know if the overall show would have truly benefited from it being 16 episodes, but they definitely should have developed him more as he was such an important person to the lead leads.

What I remember about this show the most is me thinking "Go oh girl...give us nothing" when watching. It was like watching a plank of wood talk to people and then leak water.
The ML and SML actors were stronger performers and it SHOWED in any scenes that they all shared.
The overall story never made any sense in the end. The concept was great, but it felt like too many cooks in the kitchen with the script. I wasn't surprised to see it as the ONLY writing credit on the writer's page. Honestly wouldn't be shock to find out it was a penname.
I honestly don't think they had a full script when they started filming, because it was bad bad.
I had comeback to this page after being reminded of it when looking into Impossible Heir. Similar love triangle and FL giving nothing.

As someone who is a lover of cinema....damn....they brought it. There is so much to say, but one thing that I think is constantly over looked in other dramas is coverage. When a director takes the time to cover shots of non central characters in a scene it adds so much more depth & context as a viewer. It's how others react to the things in the foreground that let you know immediately who is backing who. It also gives context without having to have those loooonng drawn out scenes of government officals expounding on things in dialog that personally I find boring as hell.
You know who the mains are as people within the first 3 episodes. & if you aren't in love with the show by then, there is no hope for you.
tissues recommend.

There are a few romances, but they are never the main focus(really adorable & bumbling at times). but the whole story is a love letter from a mother to her children in a way. I dont want to spoil too much, but she is MOTHER.

I just finished it...it was sooooo good. There is a very cute romance or two in it, but I think you will fall in love with the Queen. Have an entire case of tissue, cause 🤧. It's not always going to be sad tears, but those good cry tears because it's so moving.

I've been watching 'Under the Queen's Umbrella' Moon Sang Min isn't the lead lead, but he is main role. Highly recommend and there were a few references to it in this show because a few of the actors were also in UtQU. The nephew and the Grandfather being two of them.

He's been working on getting power for his brother to take over the company since their mother and father passed away and they were thrown into this new world of business. As they are illegitimate children they hold less power in the company from the start. If he, Do Han, were to marry someone with no business backing behind them it could hurt his brothers chance in running the company successfully. Also he, Ji Han, was sort of...very small part...thinking that the female lead must want something from his brother. Because even though they are the lesser known illegitimate grandchildren of the chairman they are still extremely wealthy, and to Ji Han she's come out of nowhere. Plus his brother has been living overseas for 5 years, so when did they start dating? Why has he never hear of her? (Which sidenote, Do Han...baby boo, you've known her for 15 years and never not once mentioned your bestie to your brother? like damn that's harsh as hell.)
In his mind if he's able to sway Ah Jeong away from his brother, he can "save him from himself".

lurking in the comment section without saying anything or watching the show has been a fun source of entertainment for the past few weeks. Shout out to everyone who were doing valid critiques of what they didn't like/enjoy from the drama and what they did enjoy.

Oh same same. I loved the show and how the characters were developing until one day they just stopped developing at all and I was left extremely confused as to how we got where we did.

He's actually a director, not an actor...like the human is a director for a living. He directed her in a few of her movies. 🥰

Again not the same IP. Completely different show with a troupe similarity.

I just realized we learn nothing...and I mean NOTHING about the female lead other than she was bullied as a child and she likes perfume. The end. That is everything we know about Lui by the end of this show.
Guy, he plays a Japanese sword sport, has a crap dad, absent mother, a thief of a sister, is "smart"....the end. that's it.
Why do they like each other? Beats me. He felt bad for her and then she was pretty? Your guess is as good as mine. They never actually give a reason for him to pursue her romantically.

In the Korean version FL makes ML laugh and smile while she dances to herself while he is going through an extremely hard time as a teenager. He watches her and sees how kind and funny she is. We SEE him fall in love with her. We SEE her opening up to him slowly.

HOW DO YOU MESS UP A PLOT SO BADLY? HOOOWWWW? When missing 7-8 hours of run time you would think they would have focused in on the leads relationship/friendship with one another, but you would be wrong. Because of the 10 hour runtime about 5 of those are only focused on what the second female lead is doing and feeling.

Nope, nope, nope, can not begin to nope enough.
