Choppy

But, we can't ignore the fact 1987 is crucial time in korean history. The story obviously revolves around the college student protest in democratic uprising. T__ T

Also the drama named the female lead Young Cho but changed it to Young Ro after the controversy. Why I stated the heroine is based on a woman activist? Because there is a living woman named Young Cho who fought in the protest and was once a symbolic figure in the democracy movement, but largely forgotten today. There is even a famous book about her if you want to know her tragic story.

I am a fan of historical event based show and I hope they do justice to the actual history. You can't deny it is a sensitive issue, and I wish everyone who want to watch this also read first about the democratic movement so they can learn the motives of real strong people who went through that difficult time. Especially, the fact the heroine is based on one of the woman activist who endured torture and survived despite losing her husband.

Anyway, I will give it a try to watch but if there is a distortion from the actual story I won't hesitate to drop it. My country also went through similiar event in the 90s and I know the horror. A years ago, the history repeated, the students in my city who demonstrated against the goverment got kidnapped and a lot got hurt. I still remember my class was cancelled and professor told us to get home, that night was more quiet than usual but I could hear explosion sound as I live near the government building.

it has no official english translation yet. but the scanlation group so far has done 4 ch https://mangadex.org/title/8e6092fc-2499-4f24-b949-bf0b38427940/konin-todoke-ni-han-wo-oshita-dake-desu-ga

that part is funny lol now i want the main leads to have "The Witch" referenced dialogue or maybe egg scene.

same! at first, i speculated him w his female junior at work or woong but now all hints are directed to CW lol

I also didn't realize at first, but after I listed the dating days of the leads in chronological order, the "1,792 days" doesn't connect to Yeonsoo at all and I was confused, but after reading comments about Jiwoong's then I realized! :D
There are still many cookie crumbles to discover and that is the fascinating part of this drama, im with you on the next episode ride~

I can understand the parents dont know his job, because I also work in art field. a lot of older generation have no idea how art careers work and assume making money out of it is impossible. im in similiar situation and never explain my job to my parents.

But him having a big house i find it funny and absurd 😂 unless he use his parents money to buy it because they are pretty well off and have several restaurants ( they show it in ep. 1 )

edit : oh i remember, he didn't own it, but he rented it!! his manager mentioned it when nj visited the studio. tho it must still be expensive... but well it is drama.

oh?? o_o I thought On Your Wedding Day is a whole another original story even tho it is really similiar w You Are The Apple of My Eye and the taiwanese movie had only japanese + thai adaptation.

In the beginning of ep.4 Woong did all the boring thing to make his daily life not entertaining. By doing this, he expected Jiwoong to give up filming and end the documentary. Of course, in his mind if Jiwoong give up, his identity won't be revealed so he didn't mind being filmed at the time.

But, Jiwoong pulled out another card, that is inviting Yeonsoo ( to discuss about the documentary concept ). Their meeting lead them to stir up their past memories and emotion lol, not to mention Mr. Jang and Nuah also get into his nerves.

For some reason, he hides his identity and Nuah probably took a part in it or maybe Woong just doesn't want to cause a scene and that is part of his personality ( we can see Yeonsoo picked a fight with his sunbae because Woong was too nice ). The reason hasn't been revealed yet, so we can only wait!

So far, the writer used two movie as title. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the last episode they applied "On Your Wedding Day" as title then we saw Jiwoong watching Choi Woong & Yeonsoo got married.

I haven't watched "10 Things I Hate About You" movie and only concluded it from reading synopsis and comparing it to Jiwoong's action in the beginning of the main leads's relationship in the manhwa.

More inkling that 2 movies I mentioned above are related because the female lead is similiar with Yeonsoo, smart also abrasive, and both movies are coming of age romance stories like Our Beloved Summer!

About Jiwoong's feeling towards ml from what I perceived, noticed, and speculated

Each episode has epilogue's caption as its title. I assumed it is from Jiwoong's perspective.
Ep 1 : I Know What You Did Last Summer
Bruh from ep 4, JW watched everything even their first kiss on the rainy day. He must find the couple ridiculous for acting lol.
Ep 2 : 1,792 Days of Summer? I calculated it and if I am not wrong, each year has 92 days of summer. JW has been w Choi Woong for almost 19,5 years since elementary school. 19,5x92 = around 1,792. Coincidence?
Ep 3 : 10 Things I Hate About You. Referenced to American movie with a same name? Maybe it explains how his action in the past lead the main character to fall w each other ( You can see more of this in the manhwa )
Ep 4 : 그시절, 우리가 좋아했던 소녀? 소년? It is the korean title of Taiwanese Top Movie "You Are The Apple of My Eye". But literal translation is "The girl, ( or the boy ) we liked back then?". Though the writer instead also added "소년" or "boy" into it.

Also there is more hints from his scenes, but I am afraid I am overthinking so imma stop here unless someone want to hear more.

The writer is surely playing us with Jiwoong's emotion, so there is a high chance of him having crush on Choi Woong.

thank u! will definitely check it out~

that sounds interesting! so far the only drama that reminds me of imaginary person is "It's Okay, That's Love", but the character is completely imagination unlike Yeonsoo who visualized her actual passing grandma who have been with her for a long time.
i have never watched chinese drama before so im curious, may I know the title?

exactly! im guessing we will get grandma arc after half way of the drama. i find it more painful than their breakup, especially after watching her bathroom cry scene. everyone must prepare their tears ;;-;;

same.. i do want them to get together, but if they aren't im probably 'team okay' and just hope they reconcile and make up of their mistakes at the end or else they will repeat their past and it will be troublesome.

some couple irl would need a time apart after arguing, but in yeonsoo & choi woong case, seeing their past relationship, i view them as couple that grow & learn together, but they ran away after breaking up so there was no chance of them to move on. their 2nd interview is their 2nd try, will it be the last? lets wait for next episode~

i rewatched some scenes, and there are more to support the theory. im sad now ;;

i just wanna cry T__T

in the manhwa, they showed ever since YS was a kid, she only had her grandma, there is no explanation about her parents but I guess they died early. In high school, her grandma was already old but she still went to work for yeonsoo without her granddaughter knowing ( ys forbid her from working )

after 10 years, the theory of grandma has passed away and she is only imagining her grandma's existence sounds so possible, it is so heartbreaking. Beside grandma old age, the hint they gave also there damn. In their scenes, grandma always appear everytime yeonsoo had exhausting day and they are always in the living room. The pair of slipper, the empty and quiet atmosphere of the house, yeonsoo checking her grandma room without scene of grandma, the vague face of her grandma when she encouraged ys.

AND, the dialogue of Woong and Yeonsoo about her moving out when she actually never leave her old home, probably to remember her grandma's reminisce??

im rewatching yeonsoo & grandma's scenes because of the theory and--
