I just want to clarify NO Still Means NO! And say that women do not actually fantasize about being raped. It is better described as a Surrender fantasy...This is a quote from a New York Times article 'By DANIEL GOLEMAN
Published: February 28, 1984 "For most people who have a fantasy of 'rape','' Dr. Barlow said, ''it's a very idealized, even romantic act, something like the rape scene in 'The Fantastiks,' '' perhaps somewhat stylized and removed. ''In our research, we find that if you play a tape for them of a realistic description of a real rape, with all its pain and violence, they DON'T get aroused."
Also these Surrender fantasies are the second most common in heterosexual females but include both being the one surrendering and the one being surrendered to. NO MEANS NO. Rape is a Violent Crime.

I recognize two Korean dramas from the gifs. The top gif is from It's Okay That's Love, starring Jo In Sung. The one just below it to the right is from New Tales of Gisaeng. I am not sure what all falls into this category but there is no rape in these dramas.

me too.

I agree with you about Baek Seok. He is the better one because he knows how hard it would be for her to remember losing her child. I think the ex is horrible. He sees that she is a happier person, not knowing that she lost her child only to then have her husband cheat on her and leave her for the home wrecker. Why would he want her to live with that if she didn't have to. If he really loved her, he would let her be happy as long as it was possible.

Thank you for saying that! I thought she was a sociopath from the beginning because she has zero empathy for others. She definitely is more than just selfish. The ex might just be selfish but he is to an extreme degree. I can not believe he thinks he deserves a second chance after what he did.

ooo I forgot there could be a gay character. I could see Taek being gay. He is so quiet. I kind of think Sun Woo is too obvious and too nice.

I watched the 1st episode and know I will like it. Right now I don't know which one will be Duk Sun's man. Even though (because of the actors playing,) I think it is more likely to be Taek or Sun Woo, I am favoring Jung Hwan right now. What do y'all think? Tomorrows episode looks like it will reveal which one she likes and which one/ones like her.

My 1st Asian movie was Chungking Express in the mid 90's. I loved it! It is still in my top 5 favorite movies ever from anywhere. My 1st Korean movie was Over The Rainbow around 2005. Liked it alot. My 1st Korean drama was Creating Destiny either late 2013 or early 2014. Obsessed.

The first 15 minutes of the 1st episode are probably the scariest of the series. There are are few scenes in other episodes that are a bit creepy. If you are easily scared, you might not want to watch them alone at night. For the most part the drama is a Rom Com though.

Ah! Let Shin Hyuk have his Jackson! It is not like he did not try to confess to her before. I hope she hears him this time. It is not like I think she will end up with him, but Jeez. He is a good man. He deserves to be considered for a at least 10 minutes. She should at least be touched by how much he cares for her.

What is with the guy in drag? Who is it?

I agree. That is definitely what they are hinting at.

I have watched through episode 2. I agree. It will be a scary and fun ride. I love all of the suspicious characters so far. The opening scene in Canada was terrible but English speaking actors in Kdramas are always terrible. That aside, I have been really impressed with how they are giving you suspenseful moments throughout the episodes. I hope they can continue to deliver those for 16 whole episodes. I sometimes do not know who to praise, the writer or actor... but in this case, although MGY is wonderful in the part, I think it will be the director because the mood of the drama is so perfect.

Where is episode 20? There is usually a listing for the next episode with a today or coming soon on it.... The new episode should be available if not completely subbed. I hate seeing reviews before I have had a chance to see the end..

i am shipping this couple. Loving the chemistry.

No it was not revealed, I think they may reveal it and use it as a reason DY is reluctant to make it official with SJ. I am pretty sure they will reveal that SK broke up with DY.

Who do you think will confess first? I hope there is at least a kiss and I hope is better than last seasons.

I would have to agree with that, but I think it is by design. I know you were referring to her costars in this cast but I am going to use SK for contrast to explain why I think SJ eats the way she is eating. If you remember from the first season, guys were turned on by the way that Soo Kyung ate. The way she ate was supposed to be sensual because that was her charm. Soo Ji is not the sexy type. She is athletic and fun loving. She also has a more complicated relationship with food than SK(and season 2's characters). When she is happy she eats and yes she wants it her way or no way. When she is sad, she is expressionless eating just to be filled. when she is nervous she eats with a cautiously and her facial expressions convey those things.
It is interesting that you mention the arguing about food. It is kind of like they are making the point that she is his "opposite" while still sharing his love of food. SK was his "match" with food. I guess we will find out which is more lasting the attraction of opposites or the match.

I do not know what to say about this weeks episodes.
Glad we finally found out what is happening with An Chan Soo/Joo Seung.
Doojoon's Beast bandmate YoSeob making a cameo appearance was awesome.
I was a little sad that there was not more progress between DY and SJ. I do love that they sort of made up over a meal. There were some meaningful glances. I love that DY saw SJ staring longingly at his apartment late at night. I am happy that SJ initiated a break with SW.
I was not excited about it though because I realized that we only have 2 episodes left and DY and SJ have only had an almost kiss that SJ is not even aware of. Next week DY offers SJ the wish of her choice at an amusement park during the day. That is not very romantic to me. Maybe they will have SJ answer that she wants to date him or she doesn't want him to leave... I am just losing hope that this drama will have a very good romantic payoff.

I am shipping DY and SJ but I want them to get together the right way. That is going to take at least the next 4 episodes.
Soo Ji thinks marriage is the only thing that will change her life in a positive way. Soo Ji started dating Sang Woo for the purpose of marriage. Sang Woo is in a financial position to marry. Dae Young has said several times that he chooses not to date due to his financial situation. He is also against marrying due to his financial situation. One of the two will need to change their minds about marriage before they can get together.
I think this will turn out to be about marriage, money or Soo Kyung left him for another guy. Whatever it is, we need to find out why DY and SK broke up. I need to know DY and SJ will not have the same problem. They need to flash forward to DY and SJ married with kids or something like that. I don't want to end this season expecting to see season 3 open up with the landlady gossiping about how DY and SJ broke up and DY went back to Seoul.
Dae Young and Sang Woo are friends. Soo Ji and Sang Woo are going to have to break up for their own reasons for everyone to be able to remain friends.

Off Topic: I can not wait until the Female Civil Servant and the Insurance Investigator have an awkward meeting in front of DY and SJ. I think that will be really funny.
