IM YourOnlyOne

A fair warning: You won't survive watching this in one sitting. That's like watching Graveyard of the Fireflies and Youth of May. 😝

Yeah, double-standard people. Also, usually hypocrites too, why? If they encountered it before or encounter in the future, they acted or will act like those coworkers.

What's worst? They're in their 30s and 40s. They should know better already. Which means, people like those coworkers of Mirae are selfish and social climbers. They're not worth it.

While it was not hindet nor implied that they are, back then you end up marrying because of family and social pressure. And if you want a family, adoption was also frowned upon, so marrying is your only option.

Ooh, finally we got to see and know who played her double. 🙇🏽🙇🏽🙇🏽🙇🏽🙇🏽

Let's be real, what is real in your culture doesn't apply to other cultures.

While I agree, it is not always the case. Maybe it is so in your culture, but not in Korea, the Philippines, and in other Pacific-Asian countries.

Secondly, their relationships and characters weren't portrayed nor built as "bangers". There are stories where it makes logical sense that they should stop portraying them as virgins or not horny enough to bang each other. But this series is not that. The characters are not either.

In your culture, sure it is not realistic. But not in South Korea and in other Pacific-Asian countries like ours in the Philippines. 😉

Just watch. Not knowing is part of the appeal of the show, and the impact and message.

E11 is the best episode in the entire series.

Not really. I did imagine and thought about that very thing for half an hour (it distracted me from watching!), and nothing changed. E11 would still be powerful, especially the scene with Miji and Rosa. 😝

I told myself, "Maybe this was why." But after 30 minutes, "Nah, it's just the same power scenes and exchanges with or without the Rosa episode". 🤷🏽 And I continued watching. 😉

1. If all it takes to break the cycle is for one of them to stay in that desert dimension, Day miscalculated in overdosing. They could've just set up with induce coma every 2 years, alternating between Day and Night.

2. Another possibility is, they can alternate every month or so. Why? They don't get into accidents outside of Leap Day as badly as it is on Leap Day. Once they find a stable pattern, they can alternate in induce coma every X days. Once the day or week of accident passes, they can wake up.

---

The premise of the story was simple: anyone born exactly on 00:00:00 and 12:00:00 on Feb 29th, receives the curse. To break it, one of them must stay in the desert dimension. Since the accidents are only strong and frequent on Leap Day itself, and the first few weeks or months (or maybe the close they are on Leap Day), then an induce coma was all they needed.

The sacrifice of Day was made insignificant because he simply ended up in a coma. He still alive and can potentially wake up too when they showed his fingers. So, what did he sacrifice for? Nothing. He figured out what they need to do, but because he overreacted, he overdosed when there was no need for it. Which he probably knew in the first place.

Finale episode

Hmm… it's tagged in MDL as "based on a true story". 🧐

The brother is actually not needed at all. They even had to make him autistic just to ensure the character is not needed.

I highly doubt there will S02. The story was not written that way. It's obviously ending next week and that's it.

It doesn't work in Kdrama land. 🤣🤣🤣

Same! The Rosa part was far lengthy in E10. There were parts of her story that they can remove without diminishing the impact of the Rosa story. Those minutes that would have been freed up can be used for Mirae and Strawberry Man.

It was also a "tell, not show", something frowned upon in creative writing / storytelling. Simply, they just wanted to get the Rosa case over because it's no longer needed. They're using it simply to build up Miji, and to force Hosu tomfrce the real truth about his mentor.

It's sad though that his condition has worsened. It would have been better if he also represents Mirae.

As I've said yesterday (E09), Hosu needs to learn when to draw the line and stop blindly defending/worshipping his mentor, and choose Miji and her family.

If Miji did not commit "invasion of privacy" and "theft", Hosu would've continued avoiding the facts about his mentor he continually denied the entire series. That is the flaw of Hosu, his personal truth is absolute. He is afraid to face the real truth and see his personal truth crumble.

Thanks to Miji's persistence, he was left with no choice but to face the ugly truth about his mentor. He finally stood up against him.

Hello again! So, E10 has has proven what I said that Hosu needs to learn when to draw a line and how he need to choose Miji instead of blindly defending his mentor. 😉
