Also, don't be like me and look into Seo Ji-won after finishing this drama. Or do, if you want to feel an empty sense of sadness. It makes the cassette song choice even more poignant.
Speaking of, I need to know what happened to the OG Koo Yeon Jun in the new timeline.... Seems like no one cared…
It would have been nice if the person driving the other car was related to the story somehow, and by saving Min Ju, they also saved Rowoon and Yeon Jun. For example, maybe it was Oh Chan Hee's mom driving back from visiting him at the mental hospital, but because he didn't kill anyone in the new timeline, he was instead driving himself and his mom back from visiting Chan Yeong in the hospital (maybe he was admitted after killing more animals), but Chan Hee was able to swerve the car in time to avoid collision.
Lol, I don't blame the writers for not getting even more complex, but it would have been so satisfying to tie up this last loose thread.
Those gay babies smiling at each other and holding hands while I knew exactly what was going to happen next...…
Speaking of, I need to know what happened to the OG Koo Yeon Jun in the new timeline.... Seems like no one cared enough to help him. :( Was he stuck inside, watching everything Nam Si Heon experienced (like Min Ju was)? For ~16 years? Did Nam Si Heon just ignore him? Just feels like he really got shafted, while Min Ju at least had a happy ending.
this show was reall something else like I mean I watched through the eps and thought wth I don't get anything…
The amount of times I paused to try to figure out things in my head, only to give up, was more than any other show I watched. Very satisfied that they didn't go with a "everything is predestined/you can't change the past" ending.
Those gay babies smiling at each other and holding hands while I knew exactly what was going to happen next... That ain't right. Only took 7 mins to break my heart.
I would love for kdramas like this to be more normalized (aside from the nudity). Give me adult conversations/friendships, mature romance, intimate kisses... make me yearn and feel something. I was smiling so much while watching this.
I was going to watch once all of the episodes were released, but the comments said tongue kiss, so I couldn't wait. Turns out that tongue kiss could be better described as licking the inside of his mouth. Not what I was expecting at all 😂
For first time watchers: I am just commenting to say it is probably worth watching the movie version instead of the series!
I watched the series first, only to realize that later that the movie has more scenes that add context and coherency to the story (ex. The beginning shows the wedding ceremony). Personally, I didn't enjoy it enough to watch the movie in its entirety at that point, so I am not sure how much was cut out in the series... If I could go back in time though I would have watched the movie instead.
On another note, we really need a good quality historical KBL. This and 'Tinted with You' just aren't it...
In the manwha, it is eventually revealed that iljo is adopted. So it ends up not being that weird.
Exactly. I can't remember if iljo knew all along, but jeonghan definitely believed they were cousins at the start (and that iljo was the illegitimate child of his uncle).
The "drunk kiss" or "kiss while one person is sleeping" troupe seems so common in Korean BLs I've watched/read, that maybe I've become desensitized, but I honestly don't understand the Gyeon hate. Imagine your crush (presumably of several years) kisses you... You might make the mistake of acting on your feelings in that moment instead of thinking things through. I also think the camera work/Su Bin's "drunk" acting is a bit to blame, making it seem like Do Ha is passed out/not also engaging in the kiss, but since the character wakes up and considers it his first kiss, I imagine he was meant to be kissing back. I'm not justifying Gyeon's actions in real life, but I empathize with the character, that he is not perfect and working through pent-up feelings, and thus, I don't understand people calling him creepy.
This might have a spoiler (?), so read at your own accord."When the peach blossom blooms, it attracts butterflies,…
I agree 100%. It struck me at the start of ep3, how hurt Gyeon must have been, but instead of leaving, he immediately gets water for Do Ha. Also, at the end of ep4, if Do Ha said he liked the team leader, I feel like Gyeon would have withheld his feelings to support his friend. What is coming across as a bit "possessive" is just him struggling to convey his feelings and wanting to protect Do Ha. Routing for the BF as the 🦋!
After a forensic frame-by-frame analysis of the bf at the beginning on ep1 and the kiss at end of ep2, I'm fairly certain the best friend is end game. The actor reminds me of Nam Joo Hyuk, so I am here for it.
Personally, coffee boy seems a bit stalkerish, and I am suspicious of the team leader being the reason got Do Ha fired. He seems a bit too confident that Do Ha didn't leak the proposal.
Not a fan of them still withholding the twin reveal... If I was a casual viewer who didn't read the synopsis, I feel like I would be very confused right now.
