Am I the only one that feel so bad for Rit character. He is such a loveable boy with big warm heart. He even helped…
I felt so bad for Rit, after he broke up with Farm, when he was trying to smile while holding back tears, at the picnic table with all the others.
We probably all knew Korn/Knock were going to reunite but, I agree with you, it was too fast. I kind of wish Cho would end up with Fai (or Mint). Yiwha and Art can just stay in their dysfunctional relationship, lol! I do look forward to seeing Pete get what he deserves.
I guess we're all wondering how this is going to end. Something tells me that Dream is going to end up being an actual "dream." So where does that leave Tanai/Runway and Tanai/Guide? Maybe Tanai will take Dream's place with Runway and Guide will end up with Yim? Or vice-versa? The writers are definitely keeping us guessing!
The Guide/Yaimai scene was kind of sad... I do feel sorry for her, especially with her desperately telling Guide that he can have as many guys as he wants, as long as he keeps her as his only girl. Poor thing.
At the same time, I understand the pressure Guide must be feeling, as he comes to terms with his sexuality. I was there once. Guide knows Yaimai is hurt and he feels terrible about it but, at the same time, he's trying to be true to this new awareness of himself. It's not clear where the story is going with this, but I'm glad the writers have taken on this sensitive subject.
When you say: "If this is in real life, these 3 couples will break up for sure. There is no way to get back together…
Well, we're no longer together. How can anyone know for 100% sure if their husband/fiance/boyfriend is faithful? But, when we were together, I had no reason to suspect he cheated again.

blacksky1263, you are not coldhearted. :)
Many people think the way you do... if a partner cheats, even once, then the relationship is over. It is absolutely fair to think that way.
You asked if I would forgive a husband/fiance/boyfriend that cheated on me. If I found out that he cheated on me repeatedly, then absolutely not. Good bye forever. If it was a one night stand, I would be really upset, but would try and weigh the options. Why did it happen? Does he not love me anymore? Did I have any part in leading him to this? Can I, or should I, forgive him? What would walking away do to me, emotionally?
For the record, I've been cheated on twice (different guys). One was a boyfriend I'd not been with for that long. He slept with someone else and I walked away. The other was one year into a more committed relationship. He had a one-night stand and I was devastated. I listened to his explanation and he begged me for forgiveness. After some time (maybe a month) I did end up forgiving him and we stayed together in a good relationship for seven years. In that case, I don't regret forgiving him. (When we broke up after seven years, it had nothing to do with infidelity.)
To be honest, I want ALL OF 3 COUPLES TO BREAK UP AT THE END OF THIS SERIES!! When there is a cheating occurred…
When you say: "If this is in real life, these 3 couples will break up for sure. There is no way to get back together like in the series. "
I disagree, strongly. There are many, many couples that decide to stay together after one has cheated. I will name two very famous examples: US former president Bill Clinton and current US president Donald Trump. Both cheaters, both with wives that stick by them. And it happens every day, all over the world. To pretend it doesn't is a lie. The writers here decided to write about cheating and its aftermath.. We can prefer that they wrote about something else, but it doesn't change the fact that this happens all the time. And the actors have been terrific.
At the end of the day, it's a personal matter and a personal decision.
For me, a one night stand is bad, but I can think of two things worse. 1) Physical abuse. 2) Mental abuse... meaning, constant put-down, weight shaming, telling someone he/she is ugly or stupid, belittling ones existence and accomplishments.
As for cheating, I would have to weigh the options. Physical and/or mental abuse would be definite dealbreakers for me.
Am I the only one who doesn't like Runway all that much? I mean, he's kind of a cute, dorky kid, but seems so immature and doesn't show much of a personality. I feel like the other characters are all between ages 17 - 23 and Runway is 14. Seems weird for him to have a romantic relationship of any kind. I will say that I appreciate his being so good to his mom.
I'm honestly curious, why are people ok with Knock forgiving Korn for what he did but not Cho forgiving Yihwa.…
I really like your comments and perspective, thanks!
For me, I'm not too invested in what the writers do with this "telenovela," as long as the ending gives us some kind of closure (for better or worse), as opposed to other series that leave an audience hanging, with some ridiculous cliffhanger that never gets resolved. Infidelity in a drama series is nothing new (especially in the USA)... but, now that I've watched this far (along with Bad Romance and TWM), I am interested in how it all turns out.
As for Korn/Knock and Yiwha/Cho, I do think there are differences. Yes, cheating happened in both cases, but one size does not necessarily fit all. The difference I see between them is this: Knock was no saint in the other series, but Korn was made out to be one. In this TWMTNC, Korn and Knock were already arguing--a lot--with Korn afraid of his parents' reaction to their relationship, and Knock relentlessly giving Korn the cold shoulder because of it. I don't believe that Korn had any intention of sleeping with Pete... Pete saw Korn's vulnerability and took advantage of that, acting as a sympathetic listener and a caring shoulder to lean on, while plying Korn with wine. I don't think Korn is at all an innocent victim--he's a big boy and didn't have to let himself get drunk. However, he was impaired when he slept with Pete and, in that condition, made a huge mistake. It was obvious that Korn was wracked with remorse after sleeping with Pete, the moment it was over.
With Yiwha, she and Cho had no problems, they were a cute couple that were, at least, comfortable with one another. Yiwha was perfectly sober when Art put the moves on her. She didn't put up a struggle and jumped into bed with him without a thought. It was afterward that she decided she had "feelings" for Art. (Maybe the sex was really good?) I actually give Yiwha props for going to Cho and telling him the truth, even though it was painful. But then, just a couple of days later, Yiwha is telling Art she hasn't "chosen" him after all, then starts crying that she loves Cho. So, what is Yiwha's "truth?" Seems to me that she's just toying with two guys' hearts while she selfishly tries to figure out what she wants.
So, while both Korn and Yiwha are accountable for their actions, I do believe that what Yiwha did was worse, absolutely. My opinion has nothing to do with gender or sexual orientation.
I was happy that Korn's "accident" was not something major. The writers surprised us: I know I was expecting Korn to be in some life-threatening state, with Knock running to his side and tearfully begging him to live. Instead, we got Korn's dad making peace with his son's sexuality, and his friends sobbing... over a Korean web drama and the loss of a motorbike, lol. Well done, writers!
Cho is so cool, I hope he's the one to bring that scumbag Pete down. Looks like Bright and Rit are working together against Farm. I have to say, Farm kind of deserves it. Of course, that whole trio is so weird, I don't know who to root for.
I'm okay with Korn and Knock forgiving and forgetting. I'm not so okay with Cho forgetting and forgiving Yihwa... she slept with Art on her own volition, and said she had feelings for the guy. I would think they would need more time to sort out their feelings, especially for Cho.
I need help!!!!!!!!!!!! Has anyone read the LBC books yet???? Specifically TinCan in book 2? I heard that Tin…
Someone on YouTube has posted (and reads) Parts 1 and 2 of the continuation of the TinCan story, from the novel (in English). (Warning: Part 2 gets particularly... steamy, lol!):
OMG I've never seen Cho so sad and cry before!!! My heart is breaking!!! Poor Cho!!!!!I love Fai, my god the voice…
I had to go back and watch Part 4, for the surprised woman in the background... good catch, noticing that one! Lol.
It's occurred to me too, that Rit might be a friend of Bright's from the beginning, and in on the plan (though I'm not sure what that plan is). As for Bright and Pete being made for one another, I disagree on that, although I see what you mean. But at least Bright was up front with Farm in TWM, telling him from the beginning that he (Bright) was a player... and not to expect anything different. (The birthday orgy assault was unforgivable, definitely. Not sure why Farm would get anywhere near Bright after that... but that's Farm's choice.) In this series, Bright has quit that behavior. It doesn't magically turn him into a saint, but at least shows a tiny speck of personal growth. Also, he is a competent and caring doctor. Pete is just a dick and a conniving liar.
As for Yihwa, I REALLY hope she doesn't end up back with Cho. She's already slept with Art and admitted she has feelings for him. I'd like to see Cho move on.
At least no one can accuse this series of being dull and boring!
We probably all knew Korn/Knock were going to reunite but, I agree with you, it was too fast. I kind of wish Cho would end up with Fai (or Mint). Yiwha and Art can just stay in their dysfunctional relationship, lol! I do look forward to seeing Pete get what he deserves.

As for Good/Elle... I don't get any of it.

There's a really good article online called "Should You Forgive Someone for Cheating?" It talks about how forgiving could be most beneficial for the faithful one. (It also says "but not forgetting.") I recommend it: https://www.talkspace.com/blog/2016/02/should-you-forgive-someone-for-cheating/
