It is not a BL but there is a Gay Couple and a Lesbian Couple

If you are debating on whether or not to start this series, the answer is, start! It is way better than I ever expected and is talking about/highlighting topics and issues that get skipped over too often.

I mean in real life the order makes sense. As I mentioned in my initial post, in real life the sister marrying Qi'ran happening faster makes sense in that A.) straight couples ease to getting married even though same sex marriage is legal it still takes more time for people to buy into it B.) there is a kid involved, straight couples (esp in more conservative countries) tend to get married faster when young kids are involved C. they are away from their extended family in a different city for guardianship issues/legal rights when they have no one else to rely on getting married assists with those things. That is why I think the order makes sense, also, AnLang collectively have a lot more to work through that we can see in the drama to commit. The striaght couple broadly are getting married for the kid though I am sure some love is there it is mostlty for the kid whereas AnLang are getting married for love.

What I mean was in ep 11 I could see where the show was headed so I was not surprised by the outcome and as I said irl it make sense that the cishet couple gets married first but there wasn't a wedding just a rehearsal. I get the frustration of centering a straight couple in a BL I am just saying I was not surprised and that the order makes sense now did they have to put it in the show, no they did not.

it was rushed by broad standards but again when kids are involved in more conservative cultures people don't date often without marriage in mind so again for me it made sense that they'd get married so quickly

One thing I'd say about the cishet couple getting married first is that I fully expected it because of the kid and both moving to a new location without their extended families.

I surprisingly enjoyed this series. I thought I'd dislike this, but I liked that it was a series about friendships (respecting boundaries, etc), shipping culture (what not to do), and living your dream despite family and other obstructions.

I think you keep skipping over the fact that we don't know when they first met, you keep saying he fell for a strange man and doesn't bother to find out my point is that the timeline is jumping around so perhaps he has gotten to know Mum well we just have not seen that part yet. Also, we don't know much about his personality. We know he has a brand, he is willing to give it up for his father, he is dating Mint to appease both her and his family, we have not seen the real Dew only the contrived versions. The only real glimpse of maybe Dew's personality was when he was in college but even then we didn't see much.

That was my point. You said Dew suddenly rushes to make love to Mum and my point is that we don't know that because we don't know when they started in Dew's world or what happened. But also, Dew likely never loved Mint. He for a long time said let's just be friends them ending up together could have been Dew feeling obligated to be with her because of all the things you mentioned. Loving her as a friend and companion is not the same as loving her as a lover and life partner.

only thing is the first time we see Dew and Mim together is not the first time Dew and Mum were together in Dew's world. Mum just does not remember. So when sleep together it is Mum who just goes with the flow not Dew because Dew had already had interactions with Mim in his world.

Jae Woo who already went back in time and gets the note never goes back in time. After getting the note he understands that Ji Hoon would make the choice to save 10 year old Jae Woo every time and that can allow present day Jae Woo in 2022 to move on with his life, thus we see him on the bus saying he is going to live life well. The 10 year old that gets saved by Ji Hoon will grow up and in 15 years go to the dorm and get sent back to 2007 to try and save Ji Hoon only for the cylce to repeat with Ji Hoon saving 10 year old Jae Woo, 25 yeard old Jae Woo not saving Ji Hoon and coming back out to 2022 to get the note passed to him from Hyung Jin on behalf of Ji Hoon. Long story short the one who no longer feels guilty does not go back in time again.

The Jae Woo who already went back in time and gets the note never goes back in time. After getting the note he understands that Ji Hoon would make the choice to save 10 year old Jae Woo every time and that can allow present day Jae Woo in 2022 to move on with his life, thus we see him on the bus saying he is going to live life well. The 10 year old that gets saved by Ji Hoon will grow up and in 15 years go to the dorm and get sent back to 2007 to try and save Ji Hoon only for the cylce to repeat with Ji Hoon saving 10 year old Jae Woo, 25 yeard old Jae Woo not saving Ji Hoon and coming back out to 2022 to get the note passed to him from Hyung Jin on behalf of Ji Hoon. Long story short the one who no longer feels guilty does not go back in time again.

The point is that Jae Woo who has the knowledge never goes back in time. Jae Woo who has the knowledge moves on with his life. Jae Woo who is in the endless loop does not have the new Knowledge.

Because Ji Hoon will still choose to save Jae Woo. Jae Woo who just experienced time travel in current day who gets the note does not go back in time ever again because Ji Hoon has told him in the note basically to not feel guilty and to live the rest of his life as best he can, that's why on the bus Jae Woo says he will live his life well. 10 year old Jae Woo repeats the loop. So the only way for there to be an alteration to the past is if Ji Hoon tells 10 year Jae Woo to do something different 15 years later when he time travels back to 2007 but Ji Hoon makes the choice not to do that. It is your opinion that it makes litte sense. It makes perfect sense to me. If he saves Ji Hoon they still don't have a happily ever after cause you know a 17 year age difference and unless you want to make Ji Hoon a groomer who is lingering around a 10 year old waiting for him to become of age so he can date this is the best answer.

This was beautifully devasting. Happy endings in the traditional sense are not always needed. I loved this ending. With a real-life 17-year age difference, there would not have been a traditional love story even if Jae Woo would have saved Ji Hoon unless Ji Hoon would just be waiting around for Jae Woo to grow up which would be kind of weird. This ending provides a deeper meaning to their Wheel of Fate. Every time Jae Woo goes back in time to save Ji Hoon the cycle continues. He shows up as the dorm is about to be demolished gets inside and goes back to 2007 to live his 3 weeks with Ji Hoon, Ji Hoon still chooses to save Jae Woo each time sending Jae Woo back into the cycle 15 years later to find the dorm and go back into the loop.

I am glad to see Holland acting and being truly representative but this went everywhere and yet nowhere at the same time.

I could listen to him read the phone book.

I love this series, it's messy in a way that makes sense. Relationships are complex, there is no clear answer for anything because everyone needs and desires different things. Marriage is good and bad depending on the person, ambition, or family which is more important, it depends on the person, this series is highlighting all the different ways choices impact us. For some, the choice to be one thing has a negative impact but for someone else, the exact same thing can be positive or for the best for that person. Oddly enough Song Kang and Park Min Young have the best chemistry when they are mad at each other

cis woman is a person who was assigned female at birth and identifies as a woman currently. Cis comes from the latin prefix meaning "on the same side". So men and women identify their gender with the sex assigned at birth while transgender individuals do not identify their gender with the sex assigned at birth
