i'm obsessed with them saving each other as πΌπΌ and π in their contacts
which makes think about how nice the transition of closeness was between them? how it really feels like an actual relationship? the way they went from calling each other petty nicknames, then their work titles and then slowly eased into informal speech and calling each other "μκΈ°μΌ" is so nice to see, because in many other dramas they'll just keep calling each other by their formal title (wwwsk war flashbacks). to me it's cute in some cases but only when they're at the same level. when it's like here and one is higher, then it's awkward real quick. i mean, i wouldn't be hopping into bed with my boss and still calling him "sir director" after that. let alone get married LOL was this comment a way for me to dunk on wwwsk? maybe. π€£
ah you guys keep coming up with super smart readings of the show that I hadn't thought of!!! So much to ponder!
as much as the "i want this drama to be an intellectual masterpiece"-crowd annoys me, it makes me just as sad to see other people constantly dismiss this as simply a "turn your brain off" type of drama, which isn't wrong per se because it's supposed to be an easy watch, but if you actually try and analyze things then you get just as much out of it. it's not vapid at all.
I just watched the preview again and instead of what I wrote before about Hwaran's statement being to Won in the…
her actions will never be excused of course, but i honestly kind of want her to get redeemed a little, because what would become of her son if that won't be the case? we'd all love to see it but won and sarang won't adopt him. he needs to be seen by his mom.
I don't like it for them but in terms of character development I think it's a great move that the writers made…
i'm having the exact same thoughts, it looks like we're arriving at that point with sarang. how they're portraying it is very realistic. even if won had already told her she doesn't have to hold herself back, the reality is that this is a habit she's had her entire life, and like you said, even had to reinforce due to her job. the way to grow out of that is hard and long and needs a lot of work and might not go as smoothly as one might want, even i still struggle with the same issue. what you need is a good support system around you and this is exactly what sarang has. her friends know her so well and are even planning to visit her, the same goes for won (though he has to face his mom first and oh god that's something i'm not ready for!)
It's very well thought out, especially since the situation with Sarang is very similar to what happened with his…
omg you're right!!! it totally mirrors what he went through with his mom. i didnt connect the dots but now that you pointed it out i love how they brought his trauma back in that way. and still had him successfully work through it on his own in the end.
The screech out of me when his mother shows up at the end!!! (also this actress always seems to play characters…
hahaha i was kinda expecting her to show up, i spoiled myself a little when looking at the cast list here and saw the actress listed. i've hated her in every show i've seen her in so far, but here she seems to finally have a different role. still a mom, but hopefully not an annoying, insufferable one.
