I always come up with similar questions too! I'm insatiably curious lol like why did they show him getting a tattoo but never reference it again, I wanted to see if it stayed with each change.. I must kno more about how this works! ;P

Just watched on NETFLIX! xD

Really enjoyed it & the whole cast.. as someone who feels trapped in their own body too, I really identified with the emotions that were portrayed.. very moving & thank goodness there was a happy ending cuz I've had more than enough of sad & bittersweet ones ;P

very welcome LOL perhaps it was just ~wishful thinking? from your subconscious ;P

btw you shd totally watch Protect the Boss, that one has some epic chemistry btwn both of its ~actual male leads buahaha xDD

..two ~"male" leads? Unless I watched a diff movie, loool.. xD

(ie, you meant "main" right? there wasn't really any ~bromance here ;P haha)

The synopsis on Hulu was a ~lie.. "an original twist on the love triangle", pfftt. Granted, there was much cuute & potential, I was even actually enjoying it, at least up until the events leading to that reeally wrongful tragic accident, but it just seemed to go downhill from there.

You kno what TRULY would have been "original"? The ~three of them connecting & dealing with their feelings, without all the cliche & unnecessary drama. Apparently too, I just read above that there's a sequel out now.. well, I got my own version, lol. #OT3 I like my Happy-Ever-After's.. xD

..that typo had me confused for a minute LOL xD

Darn, from what I found, no hope at all.. ;(

Well, the intrigue was cool while it lasted! ~_~"

Okay, after watching the trailer.. https://youtu.be/5xX6AKN_96E

& reading these articles..

It definitely seems to implicate ~himself as her first love.. siigh, uber-tragic indeed.

The other guy he goes to meet is played by (according to the articles):

So, year-long mystery finally solved? ^-^

@Eeshie I kno ~I'm hoping! xP

But it makes me even more curious.. is someone even cast for this "first love"??

Looks like someone is cast to play him ~young? Arrgh, cliche-senses tingling, loool..

LOL perfect! I'm currently halfway thru Protect My Boss, alrdy kno SJ from Witch's Romance, & I've been teased with glimpses of She Was Pretty here & there haha but wanted to save it for later, since I like watching things in order by year & still have yet to see any earlier series of SiWon (considering King of Dramas tho!), so after JiSung won me over in PtB enough to check ~his resume, I noticed he & SJ had this in common.. ^-^

Thanks for the info!! ♡

It's a legitimate mental condition, & many ppl in real-life are similarly affected.

*added to To-Watch list*

Is there any ~adorkable interaction btwn JiSung/SeoJoon to look fwd to? ^-^

When they don't have official release dates, they seem to put the last day of the year just in case. Keeps it in the future until they do get a confirmation, if ever. ^-^

Is this available in HD via any streaming apps? (websites being a last resort)

Hulu has it (a version provided by DF) badly cropped to 4:3 with very low SD quality & wonky audio.. & direct DramaFever has it slightly better quality & not ~as cropped, but still not its original 16:9 HD. Kind of odd for such a recent series from a major network.

Thanks if you can help! ^-^

// edit: 2016-0717-Sn // Watched it via DramaFever's SmartHub app on my Samsung BRP. The quality was not really great & the subs need stylizing (plain white is hard to read without a border at least) but it worked well enough, lol. ♡_♡

A few more: Dalja's Spring & Witch's Romance, literally perfect dramas with practically nothing to complain about at all.. (in my pov, of course, but also re: "general cliches" - they're almost non-existent in these) & that's really rare! ^-^

It's available on Hulu, provided directly by KBS, it seems. I have not watched it yet, but came across it while looking for smth else. Hope that helps? ^-^

Yup, this was my score too, & same reasoning; I'm very particular with my ratings & so 8's are the "incomplete or messy but oh-my-heart" zone, lol. Hope the next installment vastly reduces the amount of manipulative editing with belated flashbacks.. or better yet, does away with them completely. This shd have been a 60ish x 1hr eps series with linear storytelling & it would have been truly awesome.

BUT I LOVE IT ANYWAYS & don't wanna say "goodbye"!! *flaail*

You don't have to bring out the duct-tape! (that stuff is painful to poor fingers)

But yes, as long as you get that a little restraint goes a long way. I get it, viewers got upset at the series (for not doing what they "expected"), & you got upset at the viewers (for not voting / reacting as you believe they shd); both are valid feelings, & neither deserves any harassment. That was MY only point.. ^-^

A more kinder way of approaching the topic & encouraging discussion would be smth like, "I'm curious how exactly the series let you down, could name specific examples? Thanks." Or smth similar, lol. Just smth more lighter in tone overall.

While I too tend to find certain disagreements irresistible, I would not have taken all this time to write back if I ~didn't think you were really a generally "nice" person, lol.. actually some of our ratings are quite closely matching too. ^-^

PS. Luucky to be writing from a desktop! I need my baby back.. #mobiletypingFTL

If you could refrain from indulging in your "canon elitism" for at least just a moment.. I said that "no sensible person would try & prove why they ~dislike smth to someone else rudely attacking them over it".

Which you did not accurately answer: would you really elaborate all the reasons why you rated smth LOW to someone harassing you for it? Granted, you seem very liberal with your high scores, so it must be rare indeed for you to be truly disappointed by a series, but not ~impossible, right? So are you saying you wouldn't mind someone pouncing on you outta nowhere to call your opinion worthless, etc? Would you really actually ~welcome rude ppl challenging your own low ratings with bitter, petty insults? (you ARE acting like you have been betrayed- by your fellow fans who DARED to rate your masterpiece so low- despite 1-2-3 etc ratings existing for a reason; quality & enjoyment is ~subjective after all)

Hah, okay so, being rude back is a "lesson" to those others being rude.. right, that totally doesn't actually ~continue the circle of immaturity or anything!

Also, the usage of the term "breadcrumbs" was a reference to the clues being a TRAIL, not a literal description of "size", oy. Way to take smth the wrong way & use it to throw even more insults to ppl who don't see eye-to-eye with your PoV. Very mature indeed. Did you also minor in Passive-Agressive Conversation during that college run?

Once more.. a drama being disliked IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. And while that may be just how YOU feel, others can ~equally just feel a "one" accurately represents THEIR feelings too. So learn to live & let live, otherwise you'll spend a lot of time trying to control ppl's feelings & for what? A boosted popularity score?

PS. I've seen many cmts say things I disagreed with, or that were just flat-out wrong (the story was switched, this char never cared about that one, etc), but who. cares. In the end, it's just a drama that is over & done with, so why go all crazy over what can't be changed? I'm choosing to focus on the positive things about it.. ^-^
