Another underappreciated nugget: taekyung going to his mother-in-law's restaurant and highfiving/celebrating with them that they rented out yeondoo's room, because now she can't go back home/ leave him 😆
I wanted a kiss while they were in the car stargazing 🥺🥺😩😩
YEEEEEEEEEEEEES. I AM LIVING. And his flirty boi era is sending me rn, watching eps 22 with subs.
"You told me to do as i like. So we are going on a date tonight" 😏 "What... are you afraid you will be swayed by me???" 😏 "You pay for the food. See you later :)))) *leaves before she can reject him*
How will this woman survive eight weeks of that? IMPOSSIBLE 😂
(i would make a she will be pregnant by then joke here normally but oh well, she already got that covered 🤣 )
YD: What is the matter? You told me to find a nice place to live in." TK: "Do as you please. I didn't stop you from it." Also TK: *literally rejected every place YD looked at for the tiniest reason bc he wants her to stay with him*
I wanted a kiss while they were in the car stargazing 🥺🥺😩😩
yeah, but even that would be still too much atm. She already reacted like a skittish bunny at the mere attempt of him taking her hand... so unlike with his ex gfs where things were more on a physical lvl, he needs to go very slow, step by step with her. But who knows maybe she'll surprise us all and will be the one kissing him first after all heh
I wanted a kiss while they were in the car stargazing 🥺🥺😩😩
way too early tho, bc it would have scared her shit-less and they would have never recovered from that tbh. His hesitance to touch and then eventually taking her hand was just as cute tho 🥰
Welcome to BT’s rambly summary of episode 22. And boooooooi was it a lot, so I will take liberties and my twitchy…
They will be my sugary death before the show is over, I swear. Because they are super cute and sweet while also having enough weight as characters on their own.
As said I doubt YD will leave when the two months are over. I mean look what Taekyung achieved in one day of flirting and now he has eight full WEEKS of being best superattentive husband, flirting and dating. Like she has no idea what she has suggested/agreed here (to) hahaahaha.
Please let YD scum of an ex turn on SeJin. Does that bitch really think he’ll help her after what she did to…
"she’s next level dumb"
Well, that is kinda her thing, always has been. And yet when you read posts in other spaces talking about this drama, people STILL take her all super serious for some unfathomable reasons 💀💀💀
You know it will happen. So don't forget to stock up on popcorn, bc it will be glorious 😎 TK/YD: *date for…
It is an "occupation hazard" of a writer (hobby-wise) i am afraid, since i cringe when my sentence have no flow heh. But thank you. I try to use fancy words, while relying on spellcheck to guess what the hell i mean when i vaguely spell it from the deepest back of my mind; tip of my tongue style, hahaha. (also due to not being a native english speaker i guess heh)
Welcome to BT’s rambly summary of episode 22. And boooooooi was it a lot, so I will take liberties and my twitchy skipety skip finger and focus only on the leads and what concerns them. Rest you gonna see subbed soon enough anyway. Heh. And since I finally have stopped squeeing after the live-stream, I can safety taking you on my rewatch-recount. As always my korean is pretty shit, so wrong things are bound to happen. You know the drill by now.
As we know fuckboi is back, but we don’t start with this man about to ruin whiny whale’s whole career/schemes. At least for now. We get the continuation from the “you are worth it” scene about I am still screaming ngl. After YD permitting TK to do as he pleases bc she does not care (sure sure) she arrives back at home and her room, her head still full of all the wonderful, honest things this man told her. Who can blame her for this bc Taekyung… turns out to be more and more and more of such SUUUUUUCH a giant green flag it gets hard to ignore. (No wonder his prior gf tried to put a ring on this man despite the bad odds of success hahahaha) And this is just the beginning bc she was forewarned by him that he is going to woe her in honest now hehehehe. Either way, she once more forces herself to stop to think about him which seems getting harder to achieve for her, when he knocks at her door to hand her meds against indigestion or some other ob/gyn sort for jinjja, since he is also her doctor after all (as said the full hubby package haha) I love how he shows that he is present and yet gives her room since he wishes her a good night and closes the door behind him. It is what she needs and as we see he lingers on her mind.
JH is a complete trashbag but I do enjoy his character and the actor’s nonchalant portrayal a lot more than mumbling narcoleptic jester who is just pathetic and boring as hell. He is at least… hilarious with the zero fucks he gives for anything but himself. I will never get how tf YD could ever date this waste of space when men like TK exist, but outside of that I can’t wait for him to mess things up. And with things I mean deceitful dishrag’s whole career of course. Trashbag has a pleasant taxi ride home tho, good for him. He gets a phone call from asshole bro to meet up the next day. If he ends up in gong company I doubt he will move against TK bc this would mean to piss on his own leg and unlike delusional popinjay he possesses common sense/self preservation. Moving on.
Oh god no not another fekkin pity party of failing fairy. Enough already. Can we go back to the scumbag at least? Bc at least he is fun, and I refuuuuuuuse to partake here. Go get another hobby that is not stalking you single-minded shrew uuuuuuuuuuugh. When your brainless hyena of a mother has more sense of you… damn.
Taekyung looks as if he is planning something. Oh nah he is just bracing himself to face a reluctant wifey aww. And it had been indigestion meds since he asks her if her stomach is okay. (yay for my wayward korean picking up words for retention everywhere xD) YD tells him that she has thought about it since last night and TK probably feels the need to duck and cover now, bc this is never a good sign during their current situation. And it indeed is not, haha. Since she wants to stick to the plan they og made, meaning she wants to go house hunting and go forward with their divorce (yes I winced along with TK here) while his face tells another story as he digests the info, he reacts nonchalant in telling her… yeah you should do that since your feelings/comfort is important to me and if you want to live alone do as you like. And I hope you find a good place to live for you and jinjja. Yeondoo is like :O :O :O lmao. The biggest uno reserve card played on her, since she expected resistance but got none. YD.exe has crashed hahahaahaha and she stares after him as he leaves. Oh I see what you are doing here taekyung :D
asshole bro meets with asshole ex, how fitting. Wicked worm is there to pick him up and conveniently JH’s name never is mentioned lol. It seems the writer is setting up one hell of a surprise for her later on. I AM HERE FOR THIS. Not for this scene tho, so skip.
Granny of joseon practices hangul the same way I did, which is somehow comforting to see lol. Insidious imbecile comes flying in on her clown skirt with the newest dispatch scoop of TK/YD I bet. And with newest I mean weeks old and long cleared up lmao. Even grangran is like yeah keep that shit I aint buying can’t allow myself to badmouth my tutor or else I get 50 pages of homework next time xD And on top she is asking singleminded sasaeng if she does have not anything better to do and throws her out, lmao I am living. Go ride home on your clown skirt NAGA before she does psycho joker does leave gran a very unveiled threat of how she is a person too, and she would have been almost her inlaw, yaaaawn. We skip to the past where we get the revolutionary revelation of deranged daffodil to having cared about TK for real but was forced by granny not to or some shit. I really could not care less about her sob story at this point of the plot. She is too far gone for me to still foster any smidgen of sympathy. The rest of the scene is played to this song here (https://youtu.be/0y5bd-CgFz0) as we see psycho panda leaving and running into Taekyung who does not even stop to greet her any longer lmao. Well she does stop him and he turns to her like don’t talk to me, don’t even talk to my hand I am leaving for work. Ain’t nobody got time for your crap. And out of all the random things she could say it is “Better watch out. You don’t know what I am capable to do.” Which is not insane at all, nope Which is also why I have to point you back to the song I just linked. Taekyung’s eyes widen and he is WTF, time to put her down and end her suffering. Well here we are going further down the road of knives or cars flying soon into yeondoo’s direction probably. Chan Sik saw them together and was wondering what it is about. Oh soon you will know.
We are kindly skipping the DW and SK scene. It is still about the contract and YM, so nothing new here. DS brings old flame a potted flower. Moving on. YM keeps thinking about DW despite not wanting to. DW comes there to talk about contract. Moving on.
First official asshole meeting with two of the biggest members. Contract talk about him working there, so again I doubt scumbag will go against his own interest in attacking TK, the chairman’s son. We will see.
YD takes a deep breath before stepping into the realtor agent’s office and is greeted by a very enthusiastic TK waving to her in the most cute way. So this is where he went when running into delulu drusilla, ahaha. “Oh you are here :))))” This man has a mission and it is to ruin this whole woman’s day. No not Yeondoo’s but that of the woman being the poor soul trying to sell her houses to YD. Mission impossible by design haha. “Your husband has been waiting for you.” Indeed he has hahaahahha. It is so cute how she complains about his usage of 당신toward her because it is either a rude form to say “You“ or an intimate form to address your spouse haha/nerd moment. And he releases all of his charm on the lady and goes Of course i say 당신 because she is my wife after all hhaahaha and he repeats it a couple of time toward her to drive home his point. “I do use it as i please“ :)))) and then further to the lady “Please include what we talked about in the objects to show us. It is for our child so it has to be tip top and clean :)))))” and he shortlisted some objects to look at which he certainly wont find ANY faults with. HAHAAHHAHAHAA. Yeondoo has her work cut out for herself here as he tells her happily he is here to support her. Sure and not to ruin this poor ladies’ day which we see soon after. YD likes the first home as it is big enough for the two of them and clean but TK goes nope. Next is a skycraper and he is like living room in the west side? Naaah paaaasss. And the next one has poor air quality and the poor agent is about to quit her job and live on jeju instead when YD takes him aside. Taekyung is the cutest even when ruining someone’s day bc he wants to live with wifey, nothing else. What is wrong with you TK? What did I not help you ;))) YD is done with his clowning but he wants to go eat tteobokki with her. Anything to find a way to have a date hhahaha he is teasing her so hard she has no choice but to agree. He knows her just for a month but dear god this man knows what buttons to push with her. Wailing hyena could never!
Lmao the many murder looks she gives him while he eagerly eats xD She is so done, but he is far from having started :)))))) “It is so goooooood” and the delivery of his lines here kill me. So playful. “YD why are you not eating?” “You can eat it all by yourself.” “oh good because it tastes fantastic :D” but since TK is such a kind guy, he wants to share after all and tries to feed her. The capital word here is try as she is having none of it xD A bit of the sauce hits the corner of her mouth and being the attentive golden retriever he is, of course he reaches over to get rid of it with a tissue. It is all about cleanliness and not about having some more or less accidental by way touches with her of course. What a sly sly maaaan xD Shows in the way he smiles to himself which is covered by his hamster like cheeks full of spicy rice cake. Adorable. YD reacts like a skittish bunny and is ready to flee but kept by his words that he does not want to live on his own anymore. He does no longer like it.” He is such a flirty boi here, very cheeky. “You are honest with me, so I will be too. Let’s go on a date this evening.” WHAT? There is something I wanna do with you. Why are you scared :))))))) omg, this man he got her where he wants her to be. As he is challenging her pride with that so she cannot no now :D And he knooooooows bc he is laughing to himself about her defiant reply. Bait baited, I guess hahaha. “You just need to bring yourself I have everything prepared.” Where do we go then?” He leans in, flirty flirty flirty and smiles at her “That is a secret.” Without giving her any time to reply, he gets up and quickly leaves hahahahahahaha omg, He ain’t lying when he was telling her he will flirt like hell with her from here on out. Like ZERO chill this man, whoa. Pulling from all his dating experiences to leave an impression on her. Or thousands.
Scumbaggy ex sees YD while taking a taxi to where ever the hell he goes but shrugs it off as impossible for her to be there rn, and it is for the better. He calls back IQ challenged chimp after all and with trembling grabby fingers she takes the call. They have a nice pleasant “fuck you why do you contact me twenty times like a creepy stalker after breaking up get a life talk” from JH’s side lmao and he is as enthusiastic to meet this belligerent broad as TK always was until she tells him she has a question about YD.
Long long scene at the gong company I am skipping this boring crap. Infernal duo has a date as boring as them, proposes to use a sperm donor to get a baby which will be uncle I am sure. I don’t caaaaaaaare. Old flame gets flower gifted by DS and the scene is quite cute. She tells him about her kid she raised on her own and they talk things out. Sourgrapes has several scenes but meeeeeh. Her kid is okay after a brief stomach pain scare cleared up by a doc that is the important bit of info here.
Our cuties sit each on their own, TK in his office having a coffee break and YD at home in her room, and think of each other. TK about the impending doom of a deadline with a sad expression and YD admitting she is scared (too)
Psycho circus is complete as the two clowns meet in a cafe that has to suffer under their presence. They bicker like the two hateful trashbags they are but at least it is with a very sarcastic note from 50% discount suit’s side. “You call me twenty times and are eager to meet after you threw me away? Why are you very interested in YD. Is your marriage so boring already?” Lmao I am sorry but I love this guy here. “You did know that YD is pregnant, right?” JH with the most indifferent expression “Yeah what?” “Do you know who the father is?” and he scornful laughs, leans forward Funny. Why are you so interested in who the father is of her child?” I don’t get obnoxious olivia’s reply here but she tells him basically that she lives well with GTK, married and said to be his child. Lmao the way she bares her teeth like a deranged pony here thinking she rattled this egomanical manchild. Oh he is about to destroy her whole career then. Urging him to reply if he is the father of YD’s child he denies it and omg her faaaaaaaaace hahahahahahahahahaha she put all her hopes into that and once again the writer let her fall into a bottomless pit while waving after kicking her down there himself AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. He also calls her out on when he isn’t the father that she plans to slither her way back into GTK’s life to take that place as his wife. Lmao, five minutes with her and he already knows all her shitty plans. Bless this fboi for once for pissing on all her worst laid plans and flushing them down the toilet. Him laughing at the end is so much me whenever venemous vulture circles the screen. I love his catch this haaaaand energy here so so much.
YD is back in the realtor office and the agent has not quit her job yet, surprisingly. She is like I DUNNO WHAT TO TELL YA, there is nothing your husband liked. YD apologizes and tells her he aint her husband (heresy!!!) so when he tries something like that again/calls again do not give any info about the objects I went to see. YD goes househunting on her own there, with the lady much happier now… unlike YD herself who looks close to crying. She leaves with a stack of offers and TK back on her mind, because of course :D The shell is cracking yall and it is very obvious to see, even if she tries to brush it off once more.
Back home the brushing off has reached its finite line bc once seeing the fresh veggies etc inok bought to make something nice for her and Jinjja, the woman is losing it. YD cries, sobs out all her fears, guilt about inok’s undeserved kindness and general sadness of well, leaving soon. Very touching scene that shows how much she is between a rock and a hard place and there is no easy way out of it to begin with. I love how inok is consoling her awww but she cannot stop crying :(
The contrast to it is TK with his inlaws, all happy. The way he runs to BN to hug her awwww he loves her so much too. TK asks DS if he could have some meal to take with him but he has to ask YD what she wants to eat. A true husband :)))) How is everything at home? Do you still like living with my sis, bc she can be demanding (DW) And TK basically tells them in too many words how much he likes YD so they also know now hahaha
Perfidious porker is raging in her car about JH giving as much damns about her like TK, which is zero and also of course her failing plans failing, like always. Jang ho is home to get some clothes when she arrives. He tells her to stop what she is doing and jealous jester is taking it out on the poor innocent cake she smashes to the ground. Banshee arrives as well and Jang Ho is like it is all your problem what that hellchild does I am out, bye. But before he can leave she gives him very important info about the scooter of doom incident. Not only does he know now that she lied about saving her but also that TK’s wife is in fact Yeondoo. This all will be relevant later.
Aww Taekyung brings home a looooot of food from the restaurant :))) His mother thanks him and also tells him about YD crying a lot. Oh look at the puppers, immediately concerned as heck. It must be the stress and pregnancy inok said and that he should take care of her (better) Yes I plan to take her out tonight, in fact. Chan Sik follows as he leaves and has a nice scene with TK where he asks him if everything is okay ( I think this is referring to the scene with stupid sasaeng) and that he should stop calling him chairman heh.
Back at the annex TK sees wifey all dressed up and pretty and him losing all words for a moment is so cute as he gets flustered. He checks in with her two times due to the info of her crying but she also tells him it is due to pregnancy where the emotions quickly go back and forth at times. Worried TK is also adorable. I feel AJH was made for this role as he gives everything a certain innocent puppy vibe which I really love. They are going for a daaaaaaate and I bet it is the camping one.
In the car YD is stealing glances at her (not) hubby and of course he notices amused. “Well, why... do you like looking at my face? They have a very friendly banter and you feel the comfortable warm chemistry between them, but I don’t get much of it so I will insert more details later. He tells her to sleep till they arrive.
Fboi is drinking alone, reminiscing about the whole paternity question but in a sarcastic way. TK’s parents have a nice chat about their kids over tea when the doorbell rings and well look at that, a letter arrives. And it is an old school diy message with letters glued on paper whoa. It reads “Do not trust Sejin” btw, and it is very very obvious that Jang ho did a little crafting workshop to create this, as he is now having enough of her bs. Oh this is gonna be fun.
Arrive they did and TK has used the time YD spent sleeping in the car well to get their camping site ready and pretty. She searches for him but of course he is never far from her, and greets her with a cute smile and omg, he brought her there to make the story of their first meeting he made up during team-dinner true now. That means talking around campfire, watching the stars and omg HOIST THE GREEN FLAG YALL QUICKLY AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I am melting into a puddle of goo. And YD is so touched by it that she struggles to reply at first SAME GURL SAME. “You have to play along, we have just met for the first time after all,” he pouts and she finally is able to comply in telling him her name. And he goes “Nice to meet you” which makes them both smile. OH MY GOD THIS IS SO CUTE.
Our man is ready to suffer for his wife in his first camping trip ever as he inhales more smoke than air to start the bbq. Not him even having a bit of dirt on his cheek from the coals awwwww. YD checks in on him and calls him out for being a camping virgin but in good humor and he is taking it like a champ as he tries and nearly fails to get their meat on the fiery grill. But his looks and smiles into her direction are on point indeed and I have to remind myself to breathe and not die of sugar overdose hahahaha. And for nearly leaving all their bbq in the dirt, TK does produce an odd restaurant level meal after all. Did he take cooking lessons with his mother in secret? Wow. I love how they left the slip up of the chair in bc this was 100% BJH and not YD but they improvise like pros here “Did you see it?” “No I didn’t” AJH...errr TK replies and grins a bit. Ah so many cute looks and smiles between them as they enjoy their dinner. And afterwards being best hubby he even goes to do the dishes. Yall have to do me a solid here and forget the song playing in the bg exists and instead it is this one here (https://youtu.be/LZfY5xT42bc) IT FITS SO SO WELL TO YD as she watches him go and reminiscences in all the moments spent with her hubby awww . GURL you are in looooooove. It also feels like realization of it hits her like a freight truck here tho, hence the tears bc she still thinks she can’t due to Jinjja. TK waves at her like a kid that wants to be collected by his mom aaaaaaawwww. “Are you not tired?” “Nah I am okay,” she smiles through her tears. “Good because before we leave I want to show you something.”
The something is omg STARGAZING in the car, lying down together. I AM DYING HERE. And it gets even more cute bc our man is making his move, but so very very innocently and it suits the earnest way he loves her. I love the focus on his face here as we see the thoughts mirrored there (AJH’s eyes hahaha like a boy trying to reach the cookie jar) the hesitation to do as much as touch her hand, but he is going for it, slowly. And oh god it is only kdramas which manage to make me go crazy squeeing kicking screaming throwing up about a mere brush and then grasp of hands aaaaaaaaaaaaah IT IS THE MOST ADORBS SHIT AAAAAAAAAW. Love the palpable tension here too as they are both very much feeling the touch until YD pulls away her hand and the moment has passed. They both sit up and she apologizes and tells him that it is hard for her to call it all quits and leave him alone” He perks up a lot. “So you don’t want to do that?” (is it just me or has dropped AJH’s voice here even deeper, holy shit) She tells him she has a solution, a sort of in between which is living the full three months together as a TRUE married couple. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH no longer fake dating but real real real real real real (pun intended) my babies dating era is starting and it will last forever… err eight in-story weeks in which they will become a done deal for sure. Now it is Taekyung's time to shine to complete his already more than half-successful woe progress😏😁 I highly doubt YD still *want* to leave TK when the new deadline is up. TK also gets more time to wrap his head around becoming husband/father for real (pun intended), but this man is so far gone for her it won't take much of his consideration tbh 🤭 SUPER EXCITED FOR IT and I love them both so much. They are the cutest couple, AAAAAAAH.
As for the preview: The first thing we see is Taekyung lost in his own world which is Yeondoo wonderworld of course. This man is so in looooooove awww. But YD isn't outclassed by him in smiling to herself just as much. CUTIES IN LOVE AAAAAAW they are living their best life with holding hands and changing their names in their phones to Oh <3 Wife <3 and Gong <3 Husband <3 I am here for this cute milestone even if YD looks at TK's proud result with skepticism haha. Lets leave the psycho hunger games for scummy ex and birdy poop as they claw their eyes out, while my babies date with not a care for the world hahaha. Also hell yeah for her cleaning house like the boss queen she is, telling the asshole siblings to shove it left and right. Sure Inok has to learn to stand up for herself, but this does not happen overnight. So YD's support is much needed and also repair the dysfunction running deeper within.
Narratively it makes also the most sense, since we are laying the foundation for YD and her kid being accepted no matter what in this way. Especially if she puts in the work to unite them and them growing fond of YD in the process that they don't care about the paternity or anything delulu clown gonna throw at them. After all it is said that the Gong fam becomes "Jinjja's avengers." so yeah. But of course all this takes far longer than one month they had only so far of course. Which they now all have and i am super happy about it
Might wanna correct that.
"You told me to do as i like. So we are going on a date tonight" 😏
"What... are you afraid you will be swayed by me???" 😏
"You pay for the food. See you later :)))) *leaves before she can reject him*
How will this woman survive eight weeks of that? IMPOSSIBLE 😂
(i would make a she will be pregnant by then joke here normally but oh well, she already got that covered 🤣 )
TK: "Do as you please. I didn't stop you from it."
Also TK: *literally rejected every place YD looked at for the tiniest reason bc he wants her to stay with him*
Omg, i love him sm 😂
As said I doubt YD will leave when the two months are over. I mean look what Taekyung achieved in one day of flirting and now he has eight full WEEKS of being best superattentive husband, flirting and dating. Like she has no idea what she has suggested/agreed here (to) hahaahaha.
This man, i swear.

Chan Sik saw them together and was wondering what it is about. Oh soon you will know.
We are kindly skipping the DW and SK scene. It is still about the contract and YM, so nothing new here. DS brings old flame a potted flower. Moving on. YM keeps thinking about DW despite not wanting to. DW comes there to talk about contract. Moving on.
First official asshole meeting with two of the biggest members. Contract talk about him working there, so again I doubt scumbag will go against his own interest in attacking TK, the chairman’s son. We will see.
YD takes a deep breath before stepping into the realtor agent’s office and is greeted by a very enthusiastic TK waving to her in the most cute way. So this is where he went when running into delulu drusilla, ahaha. “Oh you are here :))))” This man has a mission and it is to ruin this whole woman’s day. No not Yeondoo’s but that of the woman being the poor soul trying to sell her houses to YD. Mission impossible by design haha. “Your husband has been waiting for you.” Indeed he has hahaahahha. It is so cute how she complains about his usage of 당신toward her because it is either a rude form to say “You“ or an intimate form to address your spouse haha/nerd moment. And he releases all of his charm on the lady and goes Of course i say 당신 because she is my wife after all hhaahaha and he repeats it a couple of time toward her to drive home his point. “I do use it as i please“ :)))) and then further to the lady “Please include what we talked about in the objects to show us. It is for our child so it has to be tip top and clean :)))))” and he shortlisted some objects to look at which he certainly wont find ANY faults with. HAHAAHHAHAHAA. Yeondoo has her work cut out for herself here as he tells her happily he is here to support her. Sure and not to ruin this poor ladies’ day which we see soon after. YD likes the first home as it is big enough for the two of them and clean but TK goes nope. Next is a skycraper and he is like living room in the west side? Naaah paaaasss. And the next one has poor air quality and the poor agent is about to quit her job and live on jeju instead when YD takes him aside. Taekyung is the cutest even when ruining someone’s day bc he wants to live with wifey, nothing else. What is wrong with you TK? What did I not help you ;))) YD is done with his clowning but he wants to go eat tteobokki with her. Anything to find a way to have a date hhahaha he is teasing her so hard she has no choice but to agree. He knows her just for a month but dear god this man knows what buttons to push with her. Wailing hyena could never!
Lmao the many murder looks she gives him while he eagerly eats xD She is so done, but he is far from having started :)))))) “It is so goooooood” and the delivery of his lines here kill me. So playful. “YD why are you not eating?” “You can eat it all by yourself.” “oh good because it tastes fantastic :D” but since TK is such a kind guy, he wants to share after all and tries to feed her. The capital word here is try as she is having none of it xD A bit of the sauce hits the corner of her mouth and being the attentive golden retriever he is, of course he reaches over to get rid of it with a tissue. It is all about cleanliness and not about having some more or less accidental by way touches with her of course. What a sly sly maaaan xD Shows in the way he smiles to himself which is covered by his hamster like cheeks full of spicy rice cake. Adorable. YD reacts like a skittish bunny and is ready to flee but kept by his words that he does not want to live on his own anymore. He does no longer like it.” He is such a flirty boi here, very cheeky. “You are honest with me, so I will be too. Let’s go on a date this evening.” WHAT? There is something I wanna do with you. Why are you scared :))))))) omg, this man he got her where he wants her to be. As he is challenging her pride with that so she cannot no now :D And he knooooooows bc he is laughing to himself about her defiant reply. Bait baited, I guess hahaha. “You just need to bring yourself I have everything prepared.” Where do we go then?” He leans in, flirty flirty flirty and smiles at her “That is a secret.” Without giving her any time to reply, he gets up and quickly leaves hahahahahahaha omg, He ain’t lying when he was telling her he will flirt like hell with her from here on out. Like ZERO chill this man, whoa. Pulling from all his dating experiences to leave an impression on her. Or thousands.
Scumbaggy ex sees YD while taking a taxi to where ever the hell he goes but shrugs it off as impossible for her to be there rn, and it is for the better. He calls back IQ challenged chimp after all and with trembling grabby fingers she takes the call. They have a nice pleasant “fuck you why do you contact me twenty times like a creepy stalker after breaking up get a life talk” from JH’s side lmao and he is as enthusiastic to meet this belligerent broad as TK always was until she tells him she has a question about YD.
Long long scene at the gong company I am skipping this boring crap. Infernal duo has a date as boring as them, proposes to use a sperm donor to get a baby which will be uncle I am sure. I don’t caaaaaaaare. Old flame gets flower gifted by DS and the scene is quite cute. She tells him about her kid she raised on her own and they talk things out. Sourgrapes has several scenes but meeeeeh. Her kid is okay after a brief stomach pain scare cleared up by a doc that is the important bit of info here.
Our cuties sit each on their own, TK in his office having a coffee break and YD at home in her room, and think of each other. TK about the impending doom of a deadline with a sad expression and YD admitting she is scared (too)
Psycho circus is complete as the two clowns meet in a cafe that has to suffer under their presence. They bicker like the two hateful trashbags they are but at least it is with a very sarcastic note from 50% discount suit’s side. “You call me twenty times and are eager to meet after you threw me away? Why are you very interested in YD. Is your marriage so boring already?” Lmao I am sorry but I love this guy here. “You did know that YD is pregnant, right?” JH with the most indifferent expression “Yeah what?” “Do you know who the father is?” and he scornful laughs, leans forward Funny. Why are you so interested in who the father is of her child?” I don’t get obnoxious olivia’s reply here but she tells him basically that she lives well with GTK, married and said to be his child. Lmao the way she bares her teeth like a deranged pony here thinking she rattled this egomanical manchild. Oh he is about to destroy her whole career then. Urging him to reply if he is the father of YD’s child he denies it and omg her faaaaaaaaace hahahahahahahahahaha she put all her hopes into that and once again the writer let her fall into a bottomless pit while waving after kicking her down there himself AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. He also calls her out on when he isn’t the father that she plans to slither her way back into GTK’s life to take that place as his wife. Lmao, five minutes with her and he already knows all her shitty plans. Bless this fboi for once for pissing on all her worst laid plans and flushing them down the toilet. Him laughing at the end is so much me whenever venemous vulture circles the screen. I love his catch this haaaaand energy here so so much.
YD is back in the realtor office and the agent has not quit her job yet, surprisingly. She is like I DUNNO WHAT TO TELL YA, there is nothing your husband liked. YD apologizes and tells her he aint her husband (heresy!!!) so when he tries something like that again/calls again do not give any info about the objects I went to see. YD goes househunting on her own there, with the lady much happier now… unlike YD herself who looks close to crying. She leaves with a stack of offers and TK back on her mind, because of course :D The shell is cracking yall and it is very obvious to see, even if she tries to brush it off once more.
Back home the brushing off has reached its finite line bc once seeing the fresh veggies etc inok bought to make something nice for her and Jinjja, the woman is losing it. YD cries, sobs out all her fears, guilt about inok’s undeserved kindness and general sadness of well, leaving soon. Very touching scene that shows how much she is between a rock and a hard place and there is no easy way out of it to begin with. I love how inok is consoling her awww but she cannot stop crying :(
The contrast to it is TK with his inlaws, all happy. The way he runs to BN to hug her awwww he loves her so much too. TK asks DS if he could have some meal to take with him but he has to ask YD what she wants to eat. A true husband :)))) How is everything at home? Do you still like living with my sis, bc she can be demanding (DW) And TK basically tells them in too many words how much he likes YD so they also know now hahaha
Perfidious porker is raging in her car about JH giving as much damns about her like TK, which is zero and also of course her failing plans failing, like always. Jang ho is home to get some clothes when she arrives. He tells her to stop what she is doing and jealous jester is taking it out on the poor innocent cake she smashes to the ground. Banshee arrives as well and Jang Ho is like it is all your problem what that hellchild does I am out, bye. But before he can leave she gives him very important info about the scooter of doom incident. Not only does he know now that she lied about saving her but also that TK’s wife is in fact Yeondoo. This all will be relevant later.
Aww Taekyung brings home a looooot of food from the restaurant :))) His mother thanks him and also tells him about YD crying a lot. Oh look at the puppers, immediately concerned as heck. It must be the stress and pregnancy inok said and that he should take care of her (better) Yes I plan to take her out tonight, in fact. Chan Sik follows as he leaves and has a nice scene with TK where he asks him if everything is okay ( I think this is referring to the scene with stupid sasaeng) and that he should stop calling him chairman heh.
Back at the annex TK sees wifey all dressed up and pretty and him losing all words for a moment is so cute as he gets flustered. He checks in with her two times due to the info of her crying but she also tells him it is due to pregnancy where the emotions quickly go back and forth at times. Worried TK is also adorable. I feel AJH was made for this role as he gives everything a certain innocent puppy vibe which I really love. They are going for a daaaaaaate and I bet it is the camping one.
In the car YD is stealing glances at her (not) hubby and of course he notices amused. “Well, why... do you like looking at my face? They have a very friendly banter and you feel the comfortable warm chemistry between them, but I don’t get much of it so I will insert more details later. He tells her to sleep till they arrive.
Fboi is drinking alone, reminiscing about the whole paternity question but in a sarcastic way. TK’s parents have a nice chat about their kids over tea when the doorbell rings and well look at that, a letter arrives. And it is an old school diy message with letters glued on paper whoa. It reads “Do not trust Sejin” btw, and it is very very obvious that Jang ho did a little crafting workshop to create this, as he is now having enough of her bs. Oh this is gonna be fun.
Arrive they did and TK has used the time YD spent sleeping in the car well to get their camping site ready and pretty. She searches for him but of course he is never far from her, and greets her with a cute smile and omg, he brought her there to make the story of their first meeting he made up during team-dinner true now. That means talking around campfire, watching the stars and omg HOIST THE GREEN FLAG YALL QUICKLY AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I am melting into a puddle of goo. And YD is so touched by it that she struggles to reply at first SAME GURL SAME. “You have to play along, we have just met for the first time after all,” he pouts and she finally is able to comply in telling him her name. And he goes “Nice to meet you” which makes them both smile. OH MY GOD THIS IS SO CUTE.
Our man is ready to suffer for his wife in his first camping trip ever as he inhales more smoke than air to start the bbq. Not him even having a bit of dirt on his cheek from the coals awwwww. YD checks in on him and calls him out for being a camping virgin but in good humor and he is taking it like a champ as he tries and nearly fails to get their meat on the fiery grill. But his looks and smiles into her direction are on point indeed and I have to remind myself to breathe and not die of sugar overdose hahahaha. And for nearly leaving all their bbq in the dirt, TK does produce an odd restaurant level meal after all. Did he take cooking lessons with his mother in secret? Wow. I love how they left the slip up of the chair in bc this was 100% BJH and not YD but they improvise like pros here “Did you see it?” “No I didn’t” AJH...errr TK replies and grins a bit. Ah so many cute looks and smiles between them as they enjoy their dinner. And afterwards being best hubby he even goes to do the dishes. Yall have to do me a solid here and forget the song playing in the bg exists and instead it is this one here (https://youtu.be/LZfY5xT42bc) IT FITS SO SO WELL TO YD as she watches him go and reminiscences in all the moments spent with her hubby awww . GURL you are in looooooove. It also feels like realization of it hits her like a freight truck here tho, hence the tears bc she still thinks she can’t due to Jinjja. TK waves at her like a kid that wants to be collected by his mom aaaaaaawwww. “Are you not tired?” “Nah I am okay,” she smiles through her tears. “Good because before we leave I want to show you something.”
The something is omg STARGAZING in the car, lying down together. I AM DYING HERE. And it gets even more cute bc our man is making his move, but so very very innocently and it suits the earnest way he loves her. I love the focus on his face here as we see the thoughts mirrored there (AJH’s eyes hahaha like a boy trying to reach the cookie jar) the hesitation to do as much as touch her hand, but he is going for it, slowly. And oh god it is only kdramas which manage to make me go crazy squeeing kicking screaming throwing up about a mere brush and then grasp of hands aaaaaaaaaaaaah IT IS THE MOST ADORBS SHIT AAAAAAAAAW. Love the palpable tension here too as they are both very much feeling the touch until YD pulls away her hand and the moment has passed. They both sit up and she apologizes and tells him that it is hard for her to call it all quits and leave him alone” He perks up a lot. “So you don’t want to do that?” (is it just me or has dropped AJH’s voice here even deeper, holy shit) She tells him she has a solution, a sort of in between which is living the full three months together as a TRUE married couple. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH no longer fake dating but real real real real real real (pun intended) my babies dating era is starting and it will last forever… err eight in-story weeks in which they will become a done deal for sure. Now it is Taekyung's time to shine to complete his already more than half-successful woe progress😏😁 I highly doubt YD still *want* to leave TK when the new deadline is up. TK also gets more time to wrap his head around becoming husband/father for real (pun intended), but this man is so far gone for her it won't take much of his consideration tbh 🤭 SUPER EXCITED FOR IT and I love them both so much. They are the cutest couple, AAAAAAAH.
As for the preview: The first thing we see is Taekyung lost in his own world which is Yeondoo wonderworld of course. This man is so in looooooove awww. But YD isn't outclassed by him in smiling to herself just as much. CUTIES IN LOVE AAAAAAW they are living their best life with holding hands and changing their names in their phones to Oh <3 Wife <3 and Gong <3 Husband <3 I am here for this cute milestone even if YD looks at TK's proud result with skepticism haha. Lets leave the psycho hunger games for scummy ex and birdy poop as they claw their eyes out, while my babies date with not a care for the world hahaha. Also hell yeah for her cleaning house like the boss queen she is, telling the asshole siblings to shove it left and right. Sure Inok has to learn to stand up for herself, but this does not happen overnight. So YD's support is much needed and also repair the dysfunction running deeper within.
Narratively it makes also the most sense, since we are laying the foundation for YD and her kid being accepted no matter what in this way. Especially if she puts in the work to unite them and them growing fond of YD in the process that they don't care about the paternity or anything delulu clown gonna throw at them. After all it is said that the Gong fam becomes "Jinjja's avengers." so yeah. But of course all this takes far longer than one month they had only so far of course. Which they now all have and i am super happy about it
