When the possessed SY threw the wine & purse at the women ðŸ˜ðŸ˜†This ghost is ruining everything for SY. Her…
don't think it has murdered anyone else now, influencer woman was killed by a hungry ghost right? because of the flies. when HS's friend showed his hungry tendencies too the window had flies swarming in. and all those luxurious clothes and bag SY bought was charged to HS's card, he got a notification on his phone
summary of everything significant that happened this ep: - SY convo with dad (too short yet impactful) -HS destroys the jangseung and saves the village - SY's mom finally telling her story (importance of janjinri and the second child) - revelation that her dad was possessed by the same ghost - HS's "friend" being a hungry ghost - possessed SY at the dinner (a lot to unpack in this scene) - semi stealing (?) bag of influencer woman (pyo yejin cameo) who was haunted by hungry ghost - HS falling into the trap and finding what the evil spirit was looking for
the fact that this was all the well crafted plan of the ghost! so much happened this ep i feel like i'll need a week to digest all that. but we getting an ep tomorrow and i'm so excited to know what more gonna happen!!!
just the length of the 4 eps recap shows how much has already happened in the span of merely 4 eps, there are no fillers at all, this is why this drama is superior and everyone must watch it !!!
in the commentary keh mentioned that while she wanted to add more of his background into the story she couldn't,…
the commentary was only ep 1-4 (obv as commenting bout later eps would be a spoiler) what KEH mentioned was his family's socioeconomic status, that doesn't really have to be his backstory, if she left that out maybe she felt that wasn't too relevant to the story? idk. but i get what you mean by him not feeling like a main character yet, his partner surely has more screen time than him. but even if it's a smaller scene if it feels important that would do, however as of now HongS surely doesn't feel like such an important element to the plot. maybe as the plot progresses he gets more involved, otherwise why would they have him on the poster and list him as main role

that's interesting, because i thought the enigma surrounding his character was also in a way adding depth to the character. Because just like we're tryna find answers to the ghost's story, trying to decipher him through the way he acts and these snippets from the past is also intriguing. KEH also mentioned how he is a character who altho from a similar financial situation to SY, struggled to reach where he is now. And while SY is confident of her roots HongS unlike her wants to hide that part of him. So maybe that's one reason KEH decided to not add his story. It is one reason he felt drawn to SY, the contradicting ways they respond to the similarity in their living situation.
In the commentary I love how OJS reiterates that his character is no hero but a human, and substantiates it with scenes like getting hit by the car at the beginning of ep1, getting hit in the head and icing his arm after holding the door to save the kid in ep 2, stumbling back when the crossdressed loanshark charges towards him in ep 3, etc. He says right from the first scene where he runs across the bridge he is shown as not a hero but someone who failed at saving the person. I'm curious about whether this is a mere reflection of his past (him not being able to save his mom) or whether it is a foreshadowing of how things will end for him and SY.
HongS living situation is like SY so I’m wondering why they didn’t include those scenes or I’m assuming…
in the commentary keh mentioned that while she wanted to add more of his background into the story she couldn't, so i'm assuming there won't be much of his story
