I chose to watch this because of the writers and didn't think it would be as traumatic as the comments say. I was wrong and should have taken the comment section into account. It's not only traumatic and depressing, but it deals with an incredibly HEAVY topic that is hard to stomach. I still highly recommend this to fans of the writers because they've yet again created a unique way of telling a story, but the recommendation comes with a big "trigger warning! caution! watch at your own risk!" flashing sign.

my interpretation is that she saw that he couldnt see that she was there for him no matter what and truly loved him for him. she was always there for him through all the lows and he still thought she wouldn't stay with him if he couldn't make it. it's why she still turned him down after his game made it big and he was able to buy a house.

as someone who came here after The Early Spring...i will never go back to Luke after knowing Lu Chen. Lu Chen is so damn dreamy. I'm all heart eyes for this character

my understanding is that the aunt's husband is the FL's bio uncle (her dad's brother).

my assumption is that many Korean folks don’t know how to cook because they have a well oiled system for food deliveries. I often watch I Live Alone and most of their guests, men and women, don’t know how to cook (or choose not to cook) and often order food instead. It makes me believe that many folks in Korea are able to live fine never knowing how to cook

I'm already tired of seeing the comments on the sex and violence with regard to this drama and I haven't even watched it yet. It's not as simple as "Netflix is ruining the innocence of kdramas with their obsession of sex and violence." If there's a problem here, it's censorship. Kdramas have turned into the machine it is now because of major censorship. Yes, it has worked. Yes, it's not all bad. But at the end of the day, they're a product of restricted creative freedom and all of this has created this weird gatekeeping of innocence in kdramaland. Korean cinema is proof that having creative freedom, whether it be sex and violence or sweet and innocent or whatever, can produce truly phenomenal work.

I concur. The kdramas that Netflix owns 100% of the distribution, all episodes are dropped at once. The kdramas that are also distributed by TV networks in addition to Netflix still get branded as "Netflix Originals" because Netflix is their exclusive streaming service.
