i really felt nam do san's struggle this episode. i also had the same experience before. so here's the tea:
i was always looked up as a math prodigy. in school. in our family. tho they always say "im so excellent, im so smart" etc etc, i just can't believe it. i always doubt it. i graduated holding the best in mathematics award in highschool. i felt i don't deserve it bc when we took the exam for selection of awardee, the questions that popped out were the same questions i reviewed. like 100%. i felt like i cheated. until now, i didn't said this to anyone irl. i kept it bottled up.
so my parents pushed me for engineering. they said i mustn't waste my talent. but at the back of my mind, "nope im not really talented, its just pure luck." personally, i prefer to take film-related course but i denied my passion for talent (or they said). i went to engineering with mindset that i will just do this to make my parents happy. my actual plan is to graduate this course, get to work in field for 5 years. then ill do what i want.
but it got me nowhere
i stopped after a year of studying. while im solving calculus problems i kept thinking of words, of cameras, and lenses, of scripts, of the world i wanted to be in. and partly, bc of guilt of cheating before.
until now, im taking my year off. rethinking things. rethinking everything.
and seeing the people hating on NDS made me feel that ok im really a terrible person. for blaming my parents (yes i also blamed them). for not saying anything about the cheating thing. i realized im really a selfish person. and i dont deserve any sympathy.
didn't get the chance to complete it, stopped on i think half-way (ep 5 or 6 i dunno). i mean it is good, but then it get overly cheesy for me. i dont like when they inserted the jealousy trope. but still i think its good. not my cup of tea, to say it.
everything was so unpredictable that even fans are clashing one another. this is so fun. and wait can we talk abt how cute suzy is on that bus window scene. and also the cow dung haha.
all who complains of dosan x dalmi romance bc it is based on a lie, you might be forgetting that ji pyeong's letter is also based on a lie. lol.
i mean i also love hjp so so much and i want him to be happy and keep that smile. but then i also thought of dosan and dalmi didn't end up together, i will be more hurt.
You are thinking too much hahaa^^although your theory is good ..I don't want it to be true i like this family…
again guys this is just a wild theory. i mean, imagine if they pull this off rightly. this will sure be a top-notch drama. tho, yes half of my mind don't want this to be true bc i LOVE THE FAMILY SO SO MUCH. but then, again, it is majestic to see this kind of twist, right?
i just had this wild thought that the twins is not hong dae young's children when im on ep 6 or 7 i think. i always find it strange that they still haven't showed us what conspired on the opening scene (the basketball court scene where da jung said she's pregnant). i mean its muted. and we know the director has been doing that technique, right? when they want to keep something in secret, they mute the scene.
and also at the epilogue of episode 1, as i reread the dialogues. there's no real evidence that hong dae young is the father. hong dae young's father just said "dont ruin that girl's life". so i felt hong dae young is just taking responsibility. even though its not his child.
i also find it strange that the mother of jung da jung and also hong dae young said they want to abort the children. i mean why???? it doesn't kind of add up (BUT still i think their reaction is valid, i've seen same scenario in my own two eyes). its just that it doesn't add up on hong dae young being hong dae young. and da jungs mother being she.
SO THAT CONCLUDES ME INTO THINKING HONG DAE YOUNG IS NOT THE FATHER. and i have this wild theory: Da Jung could be a victim rape. (jtbc being jtbc i know they can pull it off)
And that theory. im slowly confirming it when da jung, together with si ah, learned self-defense. i mean it will be maybe because da jung wants si ah to protect herself right? bc da jung didn't succeed protecting herself before. she want to compensate for it.
and lets also go back on why they divorced. it is because of the reunion incident. hong dae young said he regretted da jung. and that, da jung was hurt and decided to let go hong dae young. so it also points out: maybe bc hong dae young take responsibility, that's what he's regretting and da jung thought she's being a burden.
IF THEY PULL THIS TWIST, I WILL BE SO MUCH HAPPY. I MEAN IT WILL BE REALLY NERVE WRACKING. And if not, i will still be happy. Since all their reactions and decisions are already valid as laid out by writers. It is just a wild hunch for me. Thanks for ted talk.
before i started to watch this, i doubt they can make a 16-episode drama out of a 2-hour movie. i said "ok this'll be a drag for sure". but now after ep 13, i think they can extend it even up to 18 episodes. the story is still as exciting as the first episode. the writer's are full of ideasSSSS.

p.s. vlad was effin hot, fight me if u disagree
p.p.s. sometimes the conyo-ness of dialogues but ok bearable
i mean i also love hjp so so much and i want him to be happy and keep that smile. but then i also thought of dosan and dalmi didn't end up together, i will be more hurt.
