No, he is dead. He didn't disappear, he died. The mystery is why he died. His mother doesn't believe it was an accident and wants to know the truth (she was correct).

You are inventing things that don't exist in the show. I mean I can't tell you more than this. Old Do Joon died. They said it was an accident. His mother didn't believe it was so she demanded the truth in return for the shares. That's all.

December 19th 🤞🤞🤞
It is on HS too and currently nobody is refuting.

Please make it be true, I don't even care it's not the optimal time at this point.

Not *where* he is. He is dead by this time.

She wants to know what *happened* to him, how and why he died. So she offers her shares in return for the truth. Do Joon died way before Hyun Woo even joined SY.

Some things cannot be changed while others can.

It's a long standing trope in this type of fiction. That there are certain key events that no matter what you do will always happen. Basically, even without the failed investment that led her to kill herself, she would have been standing in her living room and a light fixture would have fallen and bashed her head in. Some things are simply meant to happen - fate. And you can't fight fate.

Jin Do Joon was long dead when that happened so no.

I keep having to explain this one lol

Ok so first life - grandfather never takes that trip, never gets on that plane and survived. But the plane itself is still attacked, crashes, becomes a well known event in Korean history so of course our Do Joon knows about it.

Second life - Do Joon's presence gets the grandfather to act differently. He takes the trip, books the plane but Do Joon recognizes the flight and managed to get him to switch.

I am glad we sorted it out 💪 😂

🫂 got to giggle at something as we (not so) patently wait!

Ah, yes, yes it did. Hopefully someone will fix it ☺️

Or hear me out. I am going to blow your mind here.

People have different tastes and love the show and you are not the arbiter of truth. Shocking, I know. There, there.

It was a joke.

😁😁😁

I had to joke a little as we suffer through the pain 🤣

Because the presence of new Do Joon changed his actions.

In this life, he triggers a different reaction from the grandfather who now goes on a trip that he didn't take the first time. Luckily, it was a well known event so it ended well.

First life - grandfather never went on that trip, so he never boarded the plane. The plane crashed and people died., becoming a famous event in Korean history which is why new Do Joon knows of it.

This life - new Do Joon's actions get the grandfather to behave differently, go on a trip and book a return on that plane. New Do Joon recognizes it as the famous flight that was attacked and then saves grandfather by having him change flights.

This show is the absolute worst. The absolute worst I tell you. I am so frustrated. The worst. I have no words to explain how awful it is.

Why do we have to wait four days?? Why leave us hanging for four whole days??? Why do you play with us so??? I don't have the fortitude to wait that long. The worst 😭

Because it is properly spelled as Jin Do Joon.

There was no grandpa dying in the plane crash in the first life. He died much later from something else. The plane thing was new to this reality which is why Do Joon did not anticipate it. He just recognised the flight number as the one that crashed and could help. Therefore, there is no inconsistency with when the autobiography was written.

Eh?

This page has literally thousands of comments about the great plot, phenomenal acting, fantastic production plus discussions, often heated because we as viewers are involved and care, about the happenings and your take is that? Bizarre.

No, he won't.
Yes, there is something that happens and I think we are very close to it in the drama if they are following the main points of the novel. But he doesn't die.

If it did happen, it would have fundamentally changed this story in at least two ways.

One, currently the focus is on his back and forth with his grandfather. If he had chosen FL 2, that focus would have split right away and then turned into his struggle with her.

What Do Joon says his life would be like is the nightmare situation he would be facing and that would take all his energy to fight because he wouldn't be dealing just with her, he would be dealing with her powerful family as well. He couldn't risk trying to tackle his grandfather without dealing with that first and time is ticking.

Two, his entire life would be a super stressful situation. He would have stress in his professional and private life and be fighting on two fronts. That kind of a life results in nothing good. He would break, mentally or physically sooner or later.

Now personally I find Do Joon to be a sympathetic character so I want good things for him. I am not interested in romance here but if we must have it, then a supportive, moral person to be his harbour of peace in a horrible world is what I will choose.

Not to mention that what I truly want to see is the main plot of his grandfather play out properly and without distractions and the current FL allows for that as she doesn't pull focus.
