Anyone has a theory on how Sejin figured out it's Mirae he's been working and hanging out with all along? It feels…
I remember Mirae's reaction when Sejin called her by her real name, and you're correct that there wasn't an ounce of surprise on her face at all. It must be because they've talked about it beforehand and the writers just didn't intend to directly show it to the viewers.
Anyone has a theory on how Sejin figured out it's Mirae he's been working and hanging out with all along? It feels like Sejin just blurting out "Mirae" on a random day became the indicator for the audience that he knows about the switch, but I might have missed something...
Hello. So I want to watch but I wanted to know how's the romance, id there's any
If you have watched the Hospital Playlist and would be picking this up with expectations, I'd say you have to manage it. Like Hospital Playlist, romance is just a subplot - personally, the leads' romance was mid, but it's not that bad.
There is also a slight romance for the secondary characters, but it doesn't solidify and is left open.
Personally, HG was actually doing it right. A "chill" participation would render the game pointless and less fun.…
But isn't eliminating people the point of the show? Every player wanted to do that to secure a win. The only difference is HG is brutally honest and straightforward about it. Everyone plotted against each other, which is why I don't understand why HG is being crucified for what everyone also did.
idk hyungyu in person but I didn't understand why is he so wild? Like be chill. Hate him in the reality show but…
Personally, HG was actually doing it right. A "chill" participation would render the game pointless and less fun. It was good he went all in. He perfectly understood the assignment - he was capable of entirely separating the game from reality (he was always reiterating that he'd treat the players better outside the game). He was also very self-aware about his actions, and again, he said it was really just for the games.
I guess the disagreement among the players was mainly because they couldn't come to terms with how HG was playing, but if you're actually looking at HG's "attitude," I'd say the other players were no better, really.
But I agree with you - I also don't know him personally. How he acted in the game does not entirely reflect how he is as a person.
Open ending. A protagonist's fate was left ambiguous.
I’m referring to the guy/ML.
Yes, the girl/FL is supposed to die, but as a grim reaper, ML tried to change the course of FL’s fate so she can live.
But grim reapers must not change anyone’s fate—their job is to collect souls.
In the drama, once a grim reaper violates the law (this was not further explained, but we can assume it’s related to changing someone’s fate or interfering with something that has already been destined), a grim reaper would disappear—again, this was not further clarified, so this is also up to the viewer’s own interpretation.
In the end, the ML was able to “save” FL. We could see in the last scenes how FL is trying to move forward in her life, but ML is no longer present.
When I said that the “a protagonist's fate was left ambiguous,” I meant this under this context. Since ML violated something as a grim reaper, did he also disappear? The last scenes do not show him nor his existence as a grim reaper. The ending did not categorically show that ML disappear as well, so the writer left this entirely to the viewers’ interpretation on how it ended for him.
how is this compared to hospital playlist? is it as heartwarming?
As heartwarming as Hospital Playlist!
The writing is extremely similar, probably because they have the same screenwriter. Overall feel, tone, and theme of the drama is very much the same with Hospital Playlist, too.
I am a huge fan of Hospital Playlist and I'm enjoying this series so far.
I think ive watched 20+ episodes.. i kept on hoping the story would get better.. but it really is boring.
Wow, you held on pretty well! I wanted to continue watching to make sense of the high ratings, but seeing the characters run in circles became too unbearable to watch.
Anyone who knows the title of the soundtrack playing in the last minutes of the last episode? The lyrics go "... in that place where we called home I'm coming home".
I'm not sure if it's an English song, but Googling it doesn't help me narrow down as a lot of other songs with similar lyrics come up.
Thank you!
Thanks for this!
