lol! I don’t remember her saying that - thought I can clearly hear her saying it that way!
I’m a 5 years older than DS (though in real life) and I could not imagine having an infant now… though I suppose necessity is the mother (or father) of invention! 🤣🤯🫣
The being a mother thing, it is seen a flaw in Korean society. At least in the past and especially on KDramas. Being divorced is also a flaw. (Not my opinion) I wonder what being married counts as… 🤔🫣🤣

True and I would really hope so.
GS already being pregnant made the whole argument issue moot. If GS didn’t want to be pregnant she should have taken steps to prevent that. I don’t believe her not wanting a baby was sudden. I think she was pretty clear from the start. It’s not like she reversed a decision.
I don’t think a woman should be forced or guilted or pressure to having a child. That whole surprise we are at the OB/gyn was (in my opinion bs. She is an adult.
If having / not having a child was a dealbreaker for DS, like many couples they shouldn’t have moved forward. Not whine and complain and make getting pregnant a family decision.
However the news at the doctor’s office made that all for naught.
Should a woman be forced to become pregnant if she does not want to? Just a thought that bothers me about the methodology to force that decision to try to have a child.
I may be wrong but this is how I feel on this issue.
Today was the first time I used the speed up function. I wrote so many things about the angst this episode produced but like you it isn’t worth it. I want to see how it ends but at this point it will be what it will be.
I think some of the more difficult things to accept for me are societal norms in SK vs the US. (where I was born and raised) I have enjoyed this page and group of regulars! So…One more weekend to go!
Maybe I’m not reading it correctly but I’m not sure I understand what your position is. When my wife was pregnant…
I get it. We’re CS & MS trying to get pregnant and can’t? If not that’s not being insensitive in my opinion. And if OB can’t do something because she is unwell then HS should step up. Historically OB isn’t a lazy person. HS maybe…
I do believe some women feel sicker than others during pregnancy & at different times. If this loving family doesn’t care how she feels then maybe they are not as loving and caring as it was when GS was there.
To me CS always has a chip on his shoulder. If MS was pregnant and not feeling well, he’d be the first to tell her to rest.
Celebrity 
Nice! 🫣
The getting part, 🙄🤢
GC may be an a-hole but he’ll know if he participated.
Maybe I need to wait until I see today’s episode before my head explodes?!?

The ML was in Beauty & Mr Romantic
I didn’t realize they did that there too.
Until you are the oldest person in Korea someone always tries to control someone else’s autonomy!
🤯
(Being in both categories it is self-serving. 😊)
Being divorced is also a flaw.

PS: 46 year old eggs was funny & true!
Everyone has their own agenda.
Thought it’s not like OB broke up a married couple. Perhaps both were less than honest but one was also doing something leading to big consequences.
I know OB is everyone’s cup of tea. In my opinion OB was less wrong than the piano teacher.
What episode are you on?
Great character observations too!
🤔
The very Korean things: have a baby regardless of age or if you really don’t want one.
Listen to your elders and let them control your life.
Marry someone you don’t love because your parents tell you to?
I’ve said this before, I didn’t grow up with same values, attitudes and behaviors that are typical on Kdramas.
I believe I am respectful of my elders, but I wouldn’t marry someone because my parents said to.
In Ep 52 SR said she regretted acting out and leaving home.
So was she to just marry HG because that’s what her parents wanted?
Aside from saying no, she was “locked” in her room.
A 24+ year old - so she couldn’t see BS - like she would just agree to that.
Ugh 😩 sometimes these tropes are irritating.
But I realized these shows are not written for me, for the western philosophy and values I grew up in.
So I enjoy the stories and breathe through the (for me) angst-y parts.
