if HJP end up with dalmi then she will get death threats from dosan/NJH fans... everyone has crazy ass fans and…
its more like you are finding excuses to hate him...
he asked her permission and she sit back on her seat... he went after her to have a talk and not to creepily look at her from afar... how is that luring her? he clearly said dosan went to the party, gave her his card and made her ceo on his own... how is this bad mouthing dosan?
at this point i genuinely think you are trolling people who like or defend HJP rather than you disliking him or liking dosan...
if HJP was holding a needle, you will say he is holding a knife and is planning to stab dosan, dalmi, grandma and everyone he sees... lol you are over exaggerating every single action of HJP and there is no other explanation rather than you are just trolling HJP supporters...
I also think SDM falls short as a CEO - not just any CEO, but Korea's Steve Jobs. Even though the time skip may…
dalmi as a character would have come out stronger if she was a college graduate that couldnt get a proper job or was trying to build a business on her own but lacks fund and man power...
i know kdramas will be kdramas and being realistic is not realistic for kdrama writers...
There should have been two seperate love lines and no triangle at all. Dal Mi with Do San and Ji Pyung with In…
did you completely forget the fact that HJP became a mentor in sandbox so that he can guide SST... the ceo lady has been asking him to mentor at sandbox for years and he did that solely for SST... at that time dalmi was completely out of the picture... he came to know dalmi is also participating only after he saw her in the crowd... when dosan asked him to help him by giving advice he is the one that told him to find a ceo for his company as he or his friends are not capable of managing the business aspect of the company... he is the one that helped SST from getting conned by others and told them not to blindly believe anyone... if he didnt cared enough for SST he wont mind what happens to SST or the guys...
he didnt wanted to mentor them after dalmi joined SST as he wanted to stay out of her sight as much as possible... it was dalmi who chose him as the mentor...
if HJP end up with dalmi then she will get death threats from dosan/NJH fans... everyone has crazy ass fans and…
if 90% of the people liked the confession, what the 10% thinks doesnt matter.... if majority of the viewers felt the genuineness and straightforwardness in HJP then his confession scene is a superhit...
HJP didnt make dalmi uncomfortable in anyway... she never felt uncomfortable in his presence... he met her in a crowded restaurant in daylight and talked to her in the most decent and well mannered way possible... he would have left her alone if she said she dont want to hear him out... he asked her to hear him out she gave him a chance to speak for himself and he did...
he was drunk and just having a conflict with himself... there is nothing much to dwell into it... we all have had those kind of moments...
kim seon ho was not a heart throb who had millions of fans before he starred in startup for people to like HJP solely because of kim seon ho... HJP stole the spotlight because he is a well written character and kim seon ho did an amazing job portraying hjp and he has amazing screen presence...
I also think SDM falls short as a CEO - not just any CEO, but Korea's Steve Jobs. Even though the time skip may…
1. steve jobs wouldnt have been steve jobs if he behaved like dalmi... lol
2. her choosing HJP as mentor was merily a plot device to continue the triangle... it would have been better if the mentor chose the team and HJP chose sst to support look after dalmi...
I also think SDM falls short as a CEO - not just any CEO, but Korea's Steve Jobs. Even though the time skip may…
there are two things that didnt make any sense when it comes to SDM 1. dropping out of college 2. choosing HJP over alex....
she should have talked with the guys before making a decision on who is gonna be their mentor... she made a choice solely based on her own personal preference... did she think sst will have an advantage if someone who is like a brother to dosan becomes their mentor? she chose HJP even after he said alex is better for sst...
There should have been two seperate love lines and no triangle at all. Dal Mi with Do San and Ji Pyung with In…
he clearly knows how to be nice... he is extremely nice to the ceo of sandbox... he wouldnt have made it till here if he was rude and arrogant all the time... he isnt someone born with a silver spoon in his mouth to throw tantrums and still have everything...
he dont belittle dosan... he just says whats wrong with dosan and his friends into their faces... he was right in saying dosan isnt a ceo material and he said that after dosan asked for his advice... he helped them from getting conned and anyone would be pissed off seeing how naive and innocent dosan and his friends are... he made them realise what they lack and why they didnt made it in these 2 yrs even though they had good ideas... dosan has self esteem issues and thats why instead of thinking why he isnt a ceo material he was feeling bad for himself... on the other hand when HJP said dalmi's shortcomes into her face she worked on it and proved herself infront of him... in the initial episodes when HJP was too harsh to sst dosan's friends called him out and he said sorry and thank you...
the only problem is dalmi will never leave with him if thats his plan... she isnt gonna leave her grandma alone…
i guess they will show dosan living korea and during the time jump HJP and dalmi will become good friends and just went HJP decides to propose to her dosan will come back into dalmi's life... she will still have feelings for dosan and will choose him over HJP indicating that she truely love dosan for who he is and not just because of the letters... like that HJP will become the new flag barer of second lead syndrome... SLs from school 2015 and reply 1988 can rest for sometime... lol
Both main leads have so many issues. I was so irritated with DalMi's characters in the first few episodes. Most…
exactly... completely college and getting a job was what she should have done... atleast her being jobless even after getting graduated from a good university would have made more sense... i dont get the significance of dalmi being just a highschool graduate...
I think self-learning is better than attending college cos she ain't gonna learn computer engineering. When you…
she lives in a country that gives high importance to education and the main reason why she never got a stable job is because she didnt had a college degree... she basically has a natural talent of selling things like its shown in the coffee shop in the first episode but apart from that she literally has zero knowlege about how the corporate world works and she dreams of being a ceo... bill gates and steve jobs might have been college drop outs but they dropped out from world famous colleges and already has immense knowledge and idea about what they want... even when she came to sandbox she just wanted to be a ceo and didnt matter what the start up was about.. she didnt even know the basic of what sst is about... she knew what machine learning was only because dosan explained to her before... she was lucky that dosan choose her and hjp was there to guide her... but since she is the FL she will succeed...
DM dropped out of the college because she got to know that grandma sold her shop for fees so she bought a truck…
not really.. grandma said she dropped out of college and worked to get money and buy her a food truck... which literally means grandma sold her shop for nothing...
Oh my! I just realized something, I know what the writers are going to do.OK hear me out..Alex wants NDS to come…
the only problem is dalmi will never leave with him if thats his plan... she isnt gonna leave her grandma alone esp in that condition and grandma is not gonna go to the US with her...
What would the reaction be if HJP actually does turn out to be the main lead/endgame?
i am almost 90% ( 10% simply as benefit of doubt) sure that he isnt gonna be a male lead... except for the first episode his screen-time is limited and for the last 2-3 episodes he has even lesser screen time... he is shinning on every screen time he gets and leaves an impact of his presence even if he isnt onscreen... then the swoon(korean netflix page) on YouTube mostly puts dosan and dalmi content only.. almost 80% of the clips are of dosan and dalmi... they are making it clear who the leads are...
i wont be surprised if he gets even lesser screentime in the coming episodes...
i dont get why dalmi dropped out of college to make money for a food truck... if she dropped out what happened to the money grandma got from selling her shop? also she already bought a food truck for grandma then why didnt she go back to college... she got into a top university and she just let it go even though she dreams of having her own business... that was such a dumb move... even now as a ceo she literally knows nothing... HJP or NDS needs to teach her all the techicalities that goes behind... she can simply take a break from college and make money in b/w then join the college in the next semester... as far as i have seen korean universities allow students to take break in b/w.. a lot of men in college take a break from college for 2 yrs and get enlisted... a lot of korean celebrities do that too... its shown in a lot of kdramas as well..
There should have been two seperate love lines and no triangle at all. Dal Mi with Do San and Ji Pyung with In…
he is clearly very attentive towards people he likes so he will clearly be active in a relationhsip and wont dumb everything on his partner and run off to work... again just because a guy is career oriented doesnt mean he wont have time for his partner or family...
if going by how normal korean women behave then even dalmi and injae would have to say bye-bye to their career after marriage or get married to a house husband as they both are career oriented women... dramas like startup are exactly aiming to tell that women can have a career..
as long as both the parties are ready to adjust and make some compromises and respect each other's professional life, two career oriented people can make a relationship work...
if HJP end up with dalmi then she will get death threats from dosan/NJH fans... everyone has crazy ass fans and…
HJP's confession is already a huge hit in korea as well as internationally... majority of the people liked it... see the reaction of knetz reaction to that... kim seon ho is capable enough of an actor to not make any dialogue look like a renunciation... as of now majority of the audience will be more than happy if HJP ends up being the male lead and dalmi chooses him after the time jump if dalmi and hjp spend sufficient amount of time together in dosan's absence...
