Parallel World from the Future
Replying to Mattylucky Jun 9, 2025
It’s a a Bo Young drama, what do you expect??
I think what they meant was, it doesn't need marketing because it's a PBY show.

TV/Cable networks and OTT usually don't bother with marketing when at least one lead is a "super celebrity". The show can stand on its own.

Marketing is expensive. You have editing. Filming. Time. And so on. When it's going to be a huge success with or without marketing because of the super celebrity lead.

If this was a film, they will market it since the competiton is different in the movie industry. But for a TV series, usually not needed unless they timed it to air at the same time as a stiff competition, like another show with a super celebrity at the same day and timeslot.

Of course, it is not always the case. There are super celebrity shows where they still do marketing, but that's because they're using them to market their own brand name, not really to market the show. 😉

I think that's what they meant. It's PBY, she can carry the entire show herself without any marketing support.

Can someone tell me why Hosu is spending time with Ji hyun. If he doesn't like ji hyun, only sees her as, a friend,…
I'll just copy-paste my previous answer. It's the same but I don't have the time to adjust it specifically to yoyr question.

---

Hosu knows and is fully aware. If you watched the episode,

"Do you know who you are meeting? It's Miji and not Mirae."

"I know. I'm sorry, I know."

He also refused her but she made it clear it was just for her project. Since she said so, it's fine if he accompanies her.

But when she finally revealed her true intentions, which he was fully aware of, he told her straight.

You're thinking, why didn't he just say it if he knows?

Simple. If he said it without her revealing her intentions first, he will look like an arse. She will more likely say:

"What? You think I like you? You're so pretentious. Wow. *sarcastic laugh*"

Which, btw, often happens when guys turns down women before they confessed, and their reputation is tarnished because they did the right thing.

But if they keep quiet about it, they still are evil for "giving false hopes".

They want to cut it early to avoid misunderstanding but they can't because "you're so mean and pretentious." And if they delay it, they gave false hopes. 😉 So, what should a guy do? Whichever choice they make, guys are "evil".

That's the situation of Hosu.

Besides, as he told Miji-rae, "you don't know their story and situation", "they are not saying something or is hiding something because they have a story or a reason that you do not know", "why should I dig, it is their own story/reason to reveal" (paraphrased). As far as Hosu is concerned, if the person is not being honest or revealing, he does not have any right to violate their privacy and squash their hopes.

Since she finally revealed her intentions, Hosu took advantage of the oppurtunity to turn her down. He was no doubt waiting for that moment and she gave him exactly that.

ummm i haven't started the series yet, i will once it ends... so pls tell me if both the male leads like the same…
That's a very huge spoiler question. The show will probably be boring for you because of it.

Can someone explain what’s that big project they want to do in that area ? Is it a government office or something…
Train system.

The company buying the land heard of the government train project so they want to buy the land before that train project begins.

Government always buy lower than market value using the "right-of-way" law when people refuse to sell at a little bit higher than market value.

So the private company or politician will earn more from the government because they have connections and they know when to stop haggling, thus avoiding the government using ROW law.

That's why they're keeping it quiet. The iffer they're giving the residents will simply be a change once they and the government agrees on land acquisition for the train project. For example, they can sell at current market value (not lower, not higher) in exchange for tax cuts, naming the station to what they want, getting exclusive rights for XX years on advertisements in the stations, or to manage the station's operations (they'll have 60% share on the station's revenue), and other potential deals.

Ok! Ok! Ok!..... I was little wrong before... But I had intuition that ho-su will know that she's miji..... And…
Hosu knew. He was just confused when Miji-rae started using words he first heard or usually heard from Mirae. But deep down, he knew. It was why he wasn't surprised when Miji-rae started talking in her sleep.

He was like,

"I knew it!"
"You sisters really fooled me this time, well done."
"Why did I ever doubt myself? I should've known she's Miji, I love her!"
"Who cares. Now I know I really love Miji still because all this time, it was her with me, not Mirae."

Sweet.

Why ? I thought they gonna meet in the wedding scene, but as that failed i dont expect them to met in person till…
It's the halfway episode (7 of 12), it's about time they accidentally meet with their man. Mr. Organic Strawberry Farming confessed but he still is not aware of Mirae-ji's true identity. Hosu and Miji-rae are now on the same page about the switch, and Mirae-ji is probably not aware their cover was blown.

The story reached the point where it's time to bring down the curtain and end their twin switching. They've been doing it since they were kids, and there were repercussions. Like Miji drinking Mirae's herbal tonic, and Mirae doing Miji's assignments = Mirae grew weaker and weaker until she was hospitalized.

Mirae hiding her illkess resurfaced, which led to the misunderstanding that resulted in Miji's injury and eventual psychological issue. And Mirae pretended to be Miji at school while also being Mirae at the same time.

Also, Mirae said to Miji, "you know what happened after CSAT". So, they faced another family problem.

They're adults, 30 years old, and they're still switching. It's about time they stand up and face their own problems. 🙂 After all, they now realized that

(1) no matter where they are and who they are, their problems will always be the same because it is about them, not the people around them;
(2) other people (their twin in this case) also have their own problems; and
(3) they just love each other so much, they need to patch up and repair their openness to each other.

Finally, it's also time they start telling us about Mirae's side of the story even if only for 4–6 episodes.

I'm finishing a write-up of the franchise. It has gotten long so I'm converting it to a mini-wiki. I kept finding new clues so I kept rewriting too.

The final draft is far better.

I'll share it once it's ready. 🙂

Are they not allowed to say the word gay on tv or something?
Their hometown is a province. People there are often conservatives. Like in many other Pacific-Asian countries.

Title Our Unwritten Seoul Spoiler
I don't understand if Gyeong-gu really liked Meiji and was her ex-boyfriend or not. Can someone explain this to…
They both agreed to have a fake relationship.

GyeongGu's "practice" confession was actually real, he was confessing to that guy.

Hosu knew he's gay, that's why he asked him if he truly liker Miji. Turns out, he just said Miji because he's afraid he'll be outed.

Meanwhile, Miji talked to him and they agreed to fake their relationship. Miji probably knew from the start, that's why when he blurted out a confession, Miji agreed to make Hosu jealous.

wait so you’re trying to tell me that nothing happened after they fell from the third floor especially MiJi…
Miji hitting the concrete was actually not natural. No blood. No dizziness. No broken bones. No nothing.

Mirae is fine since she fell on the bush with thick bedsheets too.

But Miji… no way. 🤣🤣🤣 Miji channeled her inner Do Bong Soon!

Oh, and it's why Mirae is so timid, reserved, type. She's intentionally avoiding overworking her body. But Miji is always active and talkative.

I think that's the tell-tale sign between them that their father and Hosu noticed. Meanwhile, Miji's fake-ex and Miji's ex-bestfriend, knew because they didn't know the little details. Since they were close classmates, they learned how detect if the twins were switching: ask them about little details that only one twin knows. 🤣
Replying to xjustcallmecrazyx Jun 8, 2025
is Mi-Rae still sick and does anyone know what she has?
Mirae is weaker, an in-born condition. She used to drink medicine when they were little kids, but Miji drank the medicine instad because Mirae hater it, in exchange, Mirae answered Miji's assignments because Mirae is more intelligent.

Then in the library scene between Hosu rnd Miji, they hinted that Miji was feeling guilty why Mirae was hospitalized and thus she isn't visiting her, she felt guilty drinking her medicine when they were kids, so now her heart is also weaker (hospitalization).

All things considered, I think Mirae cannot overwork herself physically. Hence, Mirae didn't climb the mountain.

The cases already feel too repetitive.I’m saying this just after two bcz as viewers, we can already guess how…
Give it until the halfway episode. Usually, the first half of a season (or series in Kdrama since they rarely do multiple seasons)—for this type of series—is episodic before it switches to serial. We'll see some overarching plot once we reach halfway.

You can skip the Japan arc (3 to 4 episodes before the finale episodes), they don't add anything to the plot.

Until the Japan arc. 🤣🤣🤣 It becomes a "WTF" (What The Fillers!) moment. 😝😝😝
I agree, but they didn't have to do it in Japan.

The main complaint of the majority is that when the Japan arc was forced into the narrative, they left their restaurant. The focus of the show was the FL's restaurant and the ML wanting it for himself, and the interaction of the four.

They could've remained in Korea so the leads didn't have to be absent from their restaurant and change the genre for 4(?) episodes.

The Japan arc forced a genre that was there in the first place: romantic break-up, in the sidelines is the sub-sub-sub-plot about the Japanese-owned French restaurant.

He's dead. It's not like he can be punished by mortals.Also, the entire premise of the story is to end grudges…
Yeah. It's surprsing that the gods of hell are lazy in this story. 😅

They probably are using him to send the Royal Family to hell, but when a shaman calls on one of them, they have no choice since the shaman's life is the payment for borrowing their power.
