pepe silva will fail as always as this is her default state, lol. My only fear is that the separation if it comes is drawn out for too long and especially crappy would be separation with a timejump. Aka 3 months later they meet again by chance. Ugh, all BUT that.

With the speed the story is progressing tho, i can imagine that the last ten episodes or so are about Baby Jinjja post birth and childrearing with both of them growing into their role as parent. We will see tho.

My thoughts on it:

The someone who sent that message is very obviously deranged goat herself. Which figures. and it could also lead to further plot threads of TK or rather his father discovering that manic mandy is behind it (since he is sus about her now) and this could unravel her whole card house of liiiiiiies and connection to JH. It DOES sound like one of birdbrained banshee's clownish schemes that will backfire as always 😂

Not a fan of daddy dearest putting on the disapproving parents family drama pants tbh, but it is/was bound to come out one way or another. Didn't expect it to happen this way, tho and so fast apparently? However all of it is designed to test TK's resolve and willingness to fight for YD. And it really does force him to step up and commit quicker or bring him onto the path of it.

I think the much bigger problem will be YD as guilty as she already feels toward his parents. So yeah best to enjoy the peace while it lasts heh. As for the kid, I'm not super worried as titular star of the show Jinjja obviously will be okay 😇 it may start Taekyung's villain arc though in him murdering some people to protect YD 🤣 Or at least starting to clean house. Bring it on my man. Good hunting I say 😁

So if a separation comes it will be due to YD feeling guilty and unsafe and needing to withdraw in order to protect jinjja. Maybe this is also the time then where TK comes clean to his mother as she will be and have a fundamental role in it all. For now I'm having faith in our leads to weather the storm one way or another. And it all will lead to a lot of unraveling of truth about hellion clown circus too. Exciting 👀

Him worrying about becoming a father is completely normal and have his doubts, only human. I would have been surprised if it does NOT come up, because it is going to be a huge change in his life forever especially regarding how he has lived and his beliefs before. I'm glad it does not magically change overnight. It is all part of the process tho. And i very much prefer if he does it now, in the still early stages of her pregnancy than much later. Bc in this way he has several months left to grow into the role, should he commit to it. Plus it is a way more believable character development this way.

Either way, I think they both will come out of it stronger in the end and maybe that is the new start they need after some time apart. After all the writer has to fill 25 more episodes so it can't all be happy now already heh. I like it tho lots of potential for the story to go either way since the writer has already proven to love throwing curveballs and not taking the most trite way thru this story.

My take on it:

we still have two weeks before angst comes kicking down the doors tho 🤣

Yeah, i think so too, however he barely had time to wrap his head around it so far, so it is natural for him to be anxious about it and doubting his ability to be a parent, least of all a good one. Especially given his bg. And i very much prefer if he does it now, in the still early stages of her pregnancy than much later. Bc in this way he has several months left to grow into the role, should he commit to it.

Also, since Jinjja is the titular star of the show, we can be sure they will be safe. But yeah that is exactly the reason why TK kept meeting shithead a secret and was trying to tell her veeeeery slowly, shocks are not good for YD at this still early pregnancy stage.

Please spoiler tag this, lol.

Yeah that was part of it tbh. The generational conflict/trauma was intriguing to many ppl, but it fell flat for me.

- Someone posts on the company website that the child yd is carrying is not TK's (my money here is on manic mandy)

- but the chairman gets to know about yd & TK he asks TK to breakup but of course TK refuses

-The chairman calls yd & ask her to leave TK while going after this conversation from the company yd bleeds & faint this will b on ep 30 JH who finds the fainted yd 1st bcs he follows her & TK sees this.

-Also as implied before TK tells uncle DaeSang about his worries that he's not ready to b a father

Thoughts? Opinions? Discuss. You can find my own thoughts about it further down :)

I don't think TRHC and My Perfect Stranger gel well as drama to watch if you want more of the same, so to speak. i am watching it, but i am the odd one out there who never connected with it, neither story nor leads (FL has one braincell that she is rarely using at that, and her whole motivation to erase herself was as stupid, could not relate, while also frustrating me with her impulsiveness. ML is better but also pretty boring). So i am just going through the motions watching it (on 2x speed, lol) So personally i find it very meh, but i am glad you are enjoying it :)

I love rewatching too, there are so many details you only discover the second time around. I think outside of TK catching feels much earlier than that famous bed panic scene, my fave is in episode 2. Where we get a Taekyung taking care of a baby from a patient scene that serves no purpose other than being a cheeky preview into his future with Jinjja, lol. He did such a good job despite grumping and panicking about it tho.

Okay Jinjja friends, i am hoping you enjoy the fluff we are getting atm, from what i gathered it won't last for long anymore 🙃 Since, you know, i heard something to the grapevine... or rather my twitter buddy, lol. It pertains the episodes 29/30 as there has been a script leak apparently, but as said all rumors thus far and script could also still change. But this is the tea i neeeeeeed to spill, lol (under spoilers, so tread at your own peril)

I can't remember, has sourgrapes even met trashboi till now? I mean does she know he is working there? I think the connection between the two will be discovered a different way tho.

It would, but given the super tight shooting schedule for a weekend drama, there is most likely no time for that, alas.

Yeah, I really love how between them, there is zero secrecy, they are open and honest to each other (minus the few hours of TK keeping the JH meeting/return a secret, which came from a place of care, as he did not want to stress her out and endanger the baby. Plus it was once more revealed directly at the end of the episode anyway.)

So by now the only lie that remains is the paternity of Jinjja, since their relationship is no longer fake and the feelings for each other real. That is THE main conflict for the leads as it ties into both of her families where only Daesung is ensured to cheer for them, which will determine their future and if there is any to begin with. On their reactions depends so much. We would most likely get the disapproving "break up with her/him" parents trope at first.

However it also needs TK onboard with raising a child of course for their relationship to have a future. And while we know he will get there, it has to be a process instead of magical acceptance in a matter of days. Him pausing to doubt to be equipped and ready for parenthood would only be human as i am sure even first time bio parents go through that phase of doubt/anxiety. With him it is a more particular/special situation given his prior beliefs and such, and one that needs his active decision and commitment for it instead of automatic obligation as bio parent. That is up to him to figure out, so i am glad he has someone in his corner here outside of YD to talk with (YD's uncle.)

You don't have time to dress stylish when you are being like this all day:

B-but the maiiiiil. Who sent it????😂 😂 😂

Oh truuuueeee I forgot about that. Birdbrain seems to not know how utterly uninvolved Taekyung is into the firm by his own choosing and design. He is completely financially independent from his family and earns good money through his profession. And even if trashman were to write bad reviews about the gong clinic on naver or something and it would go under, any clinic and hospital would love to take him on as fertility specialist. Soooo he is good and set, really. Maybe getting some marshmallows to roast them over the fire when the company goes up in flames. But that will be TK's level of involvement into the firm.

I think so yeah. If it is available for you you are better off watching it on the kbs Youtube channel tho. They are only like 2 episodes behind instead of, um, twenty 😅😂

It represents her mental asylum arc 😂

Haha, could not agree more <3
