the delay of ep 5 and 6 broadcast is not due to this drama contains political issues that may have a possibility to clash with the current situation in SK. it's getting postponed because mbc special news report is taking over the time slot. there will be a voting by the national assembly this evening to impeach the current president and to prosecute his wife. so it's an urgent situation.

many other programs and dramas like my golden child, knowing bros, the managers, the tale of lady ok, the fiery priest season 2, etc are postponed too.

even there's a musician who postponed his concert and encouraged his fans to watch the news instead.

there will be a demonstration too.

it's a huge news coverage. what will happen today may determine the future of korea.

don't worry, it has nothing to do against this drama.

it's okay, I'm on my way to watch romantic doctor teacher kim season 1. I've watched 2 episodes when it was still airing but I must forgot due to a long semester break.

another drama recommendation to watch with yoo yeonseok as the lead:
- reply 1994 - you'll get a baseball star shy shy boy yoo yeonseok.
- mr. sunshine - a good boy-bad guy, kinda similar with baek saeon but way colder and darker.
- the interest of love - lover boy yoo yeonseok. this one is bittersweet.

I thought I was just watching an analysis of ep 5's preview, didn't know the video contain a spoiler 😢😢😢😢

I thought I'm an expert at avoiding spoiler. I can survive at x which basically is like an open book. didn't expect that yt would be my poison 😭

atp I might as well just read the novel.

when it comes to spoiler, people here are more civil and careful compared to other platforms fr. you can just kind kindly remind once or twice and they'd understand.

but over there some of them don't even know the concept of spoiler, you can't even be mad at them 😭

it's okay if it was just a subtle spoiler. sometimes I ask for a spoiler myself but getting spoiled without consent sucks 😭 and it was a major spoiler, I already had a deep thought about the theory related to it that I wasn't able to post 😭

just becareful if you're avoiding it, the spoiler can get to you from unexpected source.

I believe baek saeon is his biological son but not his wife's son. even though it's a toxic relationship, his dad showed emotion when he interacted with bse. but the mother looked distant.

the way his dad shake his feet and nervous and kept on drinking his wine that his wife told him to relax.

she'd only say one or two words. but that wasn't because she understood him. it seemed she didn't even care about him, as long as he didn't make a mistake. it was like she wasn't interested to deal with her son. and put the task on dealing with bse on her husband.

plus bse called his paternal grandpa as haraboji not former chairman or any formal name to address him.

bse could stand up for himself, he didn't look like someone who had no right for doing that. but with the mother it was different. he didn't seem like he had an emotion with her too. they both looked distant.

Why korean producer spends so much money on clothes, bags and accessories? Even poor girl have iPhone 16 and chanel…
maybe some of it is ppl or sponsored.

There are many sexual conversations and scenes in the novel. I wonder if they will reflect this in the series.…
unfortunately they'll have to tone it down because it's being aired on national tv. the director already confirmed it on the interview.

if it's an ott original series they can explore all those areas and breaking the taboos.

I suppose the censorship is different.

wait someone pointed out why the captor called her eonni. I wonder if there's a hidden meaning too. but in way, from the situation, eonni sounds way creepier than nuna lol

and I was like "it'd be hilarious if his dad called her eonnie too when he woke up." and BOOM!!! the writer doesn't disappoint me 😂

I rewatch the latest episode once again. and I think I finally found the clues of when he saw "it" (regarding to the setting time of the epilogue at the end of the episode).

here's the breakdown of ep 4:

I rewatch the latest episode once again. and I think I finally found the clues of when he saw "it" (regarding…
1. the day of the her father's incident
june - 06 - 2024 (source: cctv footage minute 1:07). he was in a black tie.

2. the interview happened on the next day. he was in a black tie with small white stripe.
the day when he was late and the day of the interview was the same day by the pattern of his tie. and when heeju visited her dad after her interview, there were traces that bse visited him before.

26:35 the scene when he walked out of a building right before work. and it didn't look like a police station, but the new nursing home.

when hee ju texted him, the date was 07-06-2024 (46:36)

at the end of the day, bse told hhj he wanna attend her family daily news' anniversary tomorrow (52:52)

3. the 70th anniversary celebrated on 08-06-2024. he was in a black tie with a larger white stripe.

---
when did he visit the police station and saw the footage?

at the beginning of the episode he told the police "I will visit as soon as I can to file the report".

he got no time to go there before the interview, as he visited his father in law at the nursing home.

if it's not on 09-06-2024, the day after the anniversary, then it's the same day as celebration but in the morning or afternoon.

even if he was seen in a black tie and a wider white stripe on the day he visited the police, he needed to change his clothes to attend the hall.

and apparently he was a little late to the party, according to his dad and heeju's dad conversation. he wasn't there yet when they cut the cake.

he arrived later, at the elevator scene (minute 56:44), he had a serious look on his face. like he lost in a deep thought. and then he looked to right and left, as if looking for someone, probably heeju. maybe that was the time after he uncovered that she was able to speak.

he looked more mysterious that night for some reason. and it seemed there was a gap of emotion to the day before, as if something big happened to him during the day.

when he talked to her on the phone, he said "there was a time when I hated to eat and speak with my mouth". this line made more sense if after he saw the footage, he concluded that the reason she decided to be silent was because she hated the situation.

yoo yeonseok as go dongmae in Mr. Sunshine is like this but 100000 times more brutal and darker. the drama is…
go dongmae's character is gray, just a little darker, the sort of character that can easily be misunderstood just like baek saeon. sometimes we question about the moral but somehow he's the sort of character we can sympathize with.

you'll have no worry about the acting, writing and directing. and the cinematography, even the first scene kinda whispers "expensive".

you'll love it.

don't know if this will answer your question, but I'll add more context to their situation that I believe crafted…
I feel like it has something to do with his feeling that he himself didn't notice it before. he thought he knew her and set everything under control. but they didn't talk about each other's feeling, which escalated the misunderstanding between them.

they both grew up in a tough family and it takes time to build a good communication and learn about each other. meanwhile his behavior could easily be misunderstood and he didn't try to explain it either sometimes.

it was ironic that they could be honest and talked about their vulnerabilities while being anonymous and for him to think it was a call from a weirdo lol. but it will change everything between them.

the analogy fits perfectly to her character with her being a selective mute, as if "I can hear you but you can't hear me". it's a communication problem.
