Rain

I relate so much. Sometimes I randomly stop watching it even though I enjoyed the drama a lot and I don't really regret that. I dropped 260 dramas some of them I really love such as Legend of the Blue Sea (I rewatched the first half several times but never finished the whole drama) and some I only wasn't in the mood, watched 1-2 episodes, dropped and will check out later such as Mr. Sunshine. Overall, whenever I get bored I drop there is no need to watch them if I am bored, right?

I did actually like that plot. We saw even before 9/11 how emotionally tired yi jin was because of all the suffering he saw. 9/11 on the other hand was an even bigger blow to him. Thousands of people suffering right in front of his eyes + long distance relationship with hee do because of his job. It simply made him depressed and he no longer felt encouraged by hee do because the pain overshadowed him. Hee do knew this as well but this made her feel lonely even though she understood him. They simply grew apart because they were both physically and emotionally distant at the time - plus I do believe that long distance relationships were much harder in those years with technology being less advanced. I just found the portrayal of emotional exhaustion regardless of love quite realistic. But I also believe that they could have had a better closure - something a bit more.

Oh yes, wrong wording on my part, I meant that that was what they said to the spies

Indeed it has to do with the election. The election is in 10 days so they will be released after they win the election, at least thats the plan

there isn't really a love triangle. The relationship between sml and fl is just friendship.
