achiara

these same people would be singing a different tune had pio or jeongyo been a girl so just let them be

when she's threatening to end her life in the preview, i'm like please go ahead i'm begging

i'm sick and tired of pio's mom. she probably caused the death of jeongyo's mom and was behind the kidnapping and now i'm convinced she lied about pio being her biological son. i need her gone gone gone!!!

when jeongyo said you have to be fully prepared before you show yourself to the orchestra he explained how he is executing this revenge. he spent years planning it all and is only now showing himself to the world because he's fully prepared.
i also wanna be comforted by his words to pio, that he has to trust the conductor. it matches with how he's been helping pio tho pio doesn't understand what he's plotting (or i could be wrong and he's gonna hurt him too)

she is insane but now i'm also wondering if she stole pio from his parents that's why she can't reveal who the father is and was spouting that nonsense

the simple answer is no

there's truth in what you're saying and idk if you got to ep7 but there's something jeongyo said to pio about his own suffering and what he lost that i hope would shake pio and make him change his view of things. his struggles are real but he's not the only victim in this world

be careful, if you say this some people will accuse you of being a hater

i bet pio's mom made that house unbearable to live in by her mere presence. seon-joo probably left for her peace of mind and her relationship with the grandfather isn't one to be affected by physical distance so they were able to stay on good terms i guess

and seon-joo (the grandfather's wife) is still my favourite adult in this show, the only one with a functional brain and not driven by emotions. i also appreciate the change in her hair styling to indicate the passage of time, she looks good in both periods

if jeongyo never lost his memories why didn't he try to contact pio or anyone in korea for 9 years? was he suspicious of them from the start? was he hurt already from seeing pio accept the award and seemingly move on with his life? pio's interview where he says they weren't close might be the tipping point but jeongyo's rage couldn't have started there. i'm so curious about those 9 years, i wish we could have his pov

iirc there was a fanaccount from when they were still filming that said they were shooting a scene where song kang and junyoung were hugging and crying so hopefully we will get that hug. junyoung also mentioned his favourite scene is in ep12 so it could also be this one

this is literally the first time pio is reacting harshly to jaein and you can't say it's totally unreasonable : his slump is a sensitive topic to him and it's understandable that he wants to be consulted first on it despite her good intentions.
as for jeongyo, well that's the very focus of the show, this pull and push between them and how pio is too blinded by his own issues he comes off as self-centered and now that jeongyo is back with a vengence i'm sure that will teach pio a lesson or two and they will be ok by the end

if i'm not mistaken, song kang said pio will find freedom by the end, i hope that's not what he meant lol

and i need pio's mom gone like yesterday!! i can't stand her anymore

ngl this is all so delicious, i can't wait to see what more they have in store for us

right? i still dislike him but also feel like i understand him better after what he said about jeong-yo and his godly talent that shouldn't be wasted. i believe he's just obsessed with music and in that way doesn't care who the person is, if it's bad he says it even if it's his own grandson. he won't show consideration or make compromises no matter what and that's why he comes off as hateful

at this point, rather than the director, i'm putting my faith in the actors themselves. they are the key players of how a character is portrayed after all, and i choose to believe they wouldn't create this type of tension between them if they ultimately know they will turn out to be brothers at the end. i could be wrong but we'll see

that opening scene is the perfect hook, the showrunners said you will come and you won't leave any time soon so buckle up for the ride, i applaud them for it

the writers didn't do her justice in my opinion. they give her little time with little depth so i understand how some viewers don't really care about or even dislike her tho i don't personally agree with it. heck i even understand pio's mother (how her religious background influences her, how pio was probably born from cheating or adultery, how she is obsessed with making him as perfect as possible maybe to erase that "sin", etc.) because we are given these sneak peeks that help us read her character. unfortunately jae-in isn't given the same treatment, and so it feels like she's there as an after-thought. we'll see if this changes in the second half of the show, i really hope they give her the development she deserves
