he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
the reason why dosan and his friends listened to hjp's story and were ready to go along with him at first was because they were hoping he will invest in samsan tech... but hjp was only ready to give them money and nothing else... hjp went from there ending the deal... he didnt try to pursue dosan after that... dosan then went to the party on his own without any influence from hjp... hjp said that pretty clearly to dalmi... he said dosan's decision to coming to the party, giving his card and making her the ceo were solely dosan's decisions... HJP neither lied nor manipulated anything... he told it as it is...
it is true that grandma asked him to write a letter and he wrote it.. he knows literally nothing about dalmi so its obvious that grandma helped him write it... dalmi is smart enough to understand that much without spoon-feeding her every single thing... also from the flashback its clear that hjp did enjoy reading dalmi's letter and started writing letters on his own after a point...
hjp is a guy who grew up alone so obviously he wont understand what he is feeling and he has always been a harsh person... dosan also went blind in love and started taking dalmi's side blindly in front of his bestfriends...
The PD's did give NDS every romantic scene in the book. The slow motion panning shots, the wonderfully lit backgrounds,…
what i meant was a love story with strong base and for a romantic scenes to be intense, the built-up and chemistry are much more important than beautiful scenery in the bg and deep kissing scenes( melting me softly had one of the hottest kissing scenes but had one of the worst love stories)and slow motion camera work...
the actor playing younger HJP was also amazing... all the child actors did a wonderful job...
we will have to see if they make NDS perfect in the expense of HJP or not... we dont even know if there will be a time slip or it will be like ROY where they just simply showed the journey in 3 yrs... the time slip came only when he went to the military...
i meant what exactly you said... dalmi takes decisions based on personal preference and dont really see the bigger picture... in real world injae who is more focused as well as have experience and education will succeed better tha dalmi but since this is kdrama dalmi's 'morally correct decisions'( more like emotional decision) in a cut throat industry will take her higher than injae..
i guess the show will end with an 8.6 or 8.7 if they do well in the next 6 episodes but if they screw up i am almost sure it wont get higher than 8.3...
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
by the end if hjp starts opening up to people and gets friends i will see it as a happy ending for hjp... i dont really care about who dalmi ends up with...
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
hjp is caring, considerate and supportive towards both grandma and dalmi till now... he has his short comes as someone who lived his entire life alone... he didnt exactly grew up receiving care and support... blaming hjp for not openly showing his soft side is same as blaming dosan for lacking self confidence... they are both like that because of the surrounding they grew-up in.. hjp clearly understood her through her letters... if you remember dosan reading the letters for the first time and trying to find logic in it, hjp said he understands how she felt and she makes perfect sense... he might not have had feelings for her when he wrote those letter but he clearly respected her feelings and was very considerate when he wrote those letters... he had kept those letters with him for 15 years... if those letters meant nothing to him he wouldnt have kept it... he cares for grandma and dalmi.. thats why he kept the shoes and the letter with him...
you all should read this :https://twitter.com/Jeonggal_/status/1328583037769101315?s=20well, i start thinking…
she remembered him for all those years not just because she loved him but because of all the positive changes he brought to her entire family... his short presence in her life changed everything for her... also the male lead was shahrukh khan and its basically impossible to forget him... lol
dont mind me... just a hardcore srk fan passing by..
When the comment section is more interesting than the actual drama lol
its so true... i checked out the comment section before started watching it yesterday... the drama is good so far but not as interesting as the comments here...
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
i forgot to greet you in the last comment... i edited it now... lol
at the lunch he made it pretty clear that dosan came to the party on his own and his feelings are genuine... coming to the party and giving her his card and everything were done by dosan without any influence by him... he advocated for his rival as much as he can... he was extremely respectful and decent when he approached her... he requested her to listen to him... he didnt go there to propose to her... he just wanted to come clean and tell her his feelings... he also made it clear that he didnt confess to get a reply but just to come clean and not to make her uncomfortable...
HJP talks harshly to everyone and its not specific to dosan... he was harsh towards grandma when they first met... after starting to like dalmi even dosan was rude to hjp... dosan is more than capable of throwing a punch like he did with the stepfather but he dont do that with hjp because he knows hjp is not a bad guy and his harsh words are not intended to insult someone... also the consequences of not controlling his anger is already faced by dosan... thanks to hjp warning dalmi which saved both of them from further humiliation from the stepdad and his dumb son...
dosan is also not exactly a bad guy but he exactly isnt an innocent sheep either and did things that an honest upright person will never do... if we see everything hjp did in a negative light then the same can be done for dosan as well...
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
we will have to wait and see the next episode to make sure if she even considers him as a possible partner... as far as the precap goes she only want to find whether she likes the old or new dosan more... even if she likes the old dosan more doesnt mean she wants to give hjp a chance considering the old dosan is an imaginary person( hjp might have started being sincere with her after few letters but the overall image of old dosan is not who hjp is)
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
hey... happy to see you hear as well... :)
he was jealous of dosan and wanted to see dalmi more because he felt frustrated and unfair but now all that is pointless... she knows everything and the ball is in her court... she is the one that needs to make a decision and in the last episode except for clearing everything and telling his feelings he didnt do anything solely to make her like him... he just wanted to make sure she is okay... if he wanted to be with her he could have directly met dalmi and gave her all the questions instead of going to dosan... he made his confession like a ppt because he didnt confess to her to impress her... he just wanted to let her know he had geniene feelings for her and dont want her to think whatever he did was just because of his debt... he has every right to confess his feelings as long as he dont expect or force her to accept his feelings... also he didnt bad mouth dosan... infact he defended dosan and let her know that even dosan's feelings for her are genuine...
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue…
if SLS means liking the second lead more than the leads then yes i have SLS but if it means i want the female lead to go with the SL then i dont have SLS...
as a character i like HJP but i dont mind male leads with flaws... its kdrama and i am almost 90% sure she will end up with dosan... i dont really care who dalmi ends up with... i just simply like HJP's character and kim seon ho's acting...
Is it for sure that Dal Mi isn't going to be with HJP? If not I'm not going past ep 1..
since NJH is way more popular than KSH and the entire drama is promoted NJH as the male lead, its 90% sure she will end up with dosan... if you are watching it solely for dalmi to end up with HJP then i suggest you to wait till it finish airing and see if some miracle happens...
after hearing good reviews about this show and seeing the comment session i finally decided to give this drama a try... i was extremely cautious of this because it gave me record of youth vibe from its trailer and posters but thankfully its much better than roy...
after watching just the first 3-4 episodes i get why the second lead is so popular... kdrama audience is not very accepting towards ordinary uncool male leads... so if the makers wanted to have a ML like dosan they should have either toned down the SL's storyline which is extremely attractive or give the ML and FL a better love story with intense romantic scenes which will divert the audience from the amazing SL...
from the very first episode, HJP's backstory and screentime screamed ML material.. to top it kim seon ho is literally killing it with his acting... his scenes with the grandma is the highlight of the entire drama... he is literally overshadowing everything in the drama and not just dosan...
the simple fact that the sole reason for dosan to fall for dalmi is because she is the first pretty girl who was nice to him is very shallow and unattractive... he also makes his entire dream and future about her just after meeting her for like 2-3 times... it would have been still acceptable if dalmi was being nice and attracted towards him for who he is and being nice to others is part of her character but its not... she wouldn't have given dosan a second look if he was simply a stranger she met.. she was pretty much inconsiderate towards all the guys that showed interest in her... the lead's love story dont have a strong base and the chemistry is also just okay... not bad but not amazing either...
i guess its a waste of time to find who lied more to dalmi and who deserves her more... the fact is they both lied to her equally, they both felt equally bad for lying to her and they both regret lying to her... they both are pretty much equal when it comes to all the lying, planning and plotting... they both wanted to hide it for themselves and they both wanted to reveal it for themselves... they both conveniently wanted to use the lie to their advantage... realistically i find HJP is the better choice for someone like dalmi because he is more matured out of the two but its kdrama and kdramas didnt become worldwide popular for its realistic storylines... i am more than sure she will end up with dosan... i just hope they show character growth of dosan without any influence from dalmi... its not dalmi's duty to look after dosan and make him a better man... he should do that on his own... he needs to make decisions for himself and his future...
yong san's revenge on HJP seems so out of the blue... just a note about revenge in one episode and then several episodes later yong san is threatening HJP... he never showed any kind of unusual hatred towards HJP... all the 3 friends disliked him equally because of him being mean to them and potential rival to dosan's love... then suddenly yongsan hates hjp for killing his brother?
like HJP being more interesting as a character than dosan, i find won in jae to be more attractive than dalmi... i had a wtf moment when dalmi chose HJP over alex as the mentor... she should have kept her personal preferences aside and thought about the company and the guys before choosing the mentor... alex has way more international connections and reach than HJP and the guys want to expand their business internationally... all the guys clearly preferred alex... her risky decisions work only because nam do san is head over heels for her and hjp is supporting her... but since this is kdrama dalmi will be more successful than injae by the end of this drama if they dont end up working together... also, she dropped out of a top university even after her grandmother sold her shop for her higher studies... if she thought practically she could have graduated from a top university, get a stable job, and buy another shop for her grandmother instead of a food truck... a college degree is such an important aspect to get a good job in a country like korea...
the show only has 6 episodes left and if they concentrate more on character development and their professional growth the show will end up being one of the best shows this year but if they are going to concentrate on the love triangle and butcher one character to make the other one look better then this will be a huge disappointment like ROY...
I'm afraid that HJP will find out that an harsh feedback somehow triggered the suicide because to that person…
he isnt pursuing her even now... he told her he likes her and took a back seat and didnt do anything just to pursue her... till now he felt unfair and frustrated that what could have been his got away from him due to his own foolishness but now everything is out in the open and its dalmi who needs to make a decision... there is nothing HJP can do... he will pursue her only if she takes an initiative to know him more which i dont think is gonna happen... if he disregards dalmi's feelings and still try to pursue her then it will be out of character... he seems to help her professionally if she gets into any trouble...
Is korea really this homophobic? They seem to keep coming back to the gay guy being linked to Sa Hye Jun to a…
if charlie was a woman and there were rumors of her being a sponsor of hyejoon it would have created the same amount of controversy... koreans just love their actors to be squeeze clean( esp the young ones) and maintain it even if the celebs dont fit into their standard of squeeze clean image... even a young celebrity dating is a scandal in korea... having a rich sugar daddy/mommy is way out of question... even in the west if one of the young heartthrobs is exposed as gay and also have a sugar daddy to get him everything then it would have been a big news even though it wont affect his career as much as korean celebs... almost all conservative asian societies are homophobic but in this drama its solely not because there are rumors that HJ can be gay but the rumour that he had a rich sugar daddy that helped him get popular which nullifies his claims that he made it on his own(which is the truth)... there are rumors of yoo ah in being gay but that didnt stop him from getting successful movies and dramas... he is way too talented to go down with gay rumors( even if its true or not)

blaming hjp for not openly showing his soft side is same as blaming dosan for lacking self confidence... they are both like that because of the surrounding they grew-up in..
hjp clearly understood her through her letters... if you remember dosan reading the letters for the first time and trying to find logic in it, hjp said he understands how she felt and she makes perfect sense...
he might not have had feelings for her when he wrote those letter but he clearly respected her feelings and was very considerate when he wrote those letters... he had kept those letters with him for 15 years... if those letters meant nothing to him he wouldnt have kept it... he cares for grandma and dalmi.. thats why he kept the shoes and the letter with him...

even in the west if one of the young heartthrobs is exposed as gay and also have a sugar daddy to get him everything then it would have been a big news even though it wont affect his career as much as korean celebs...
almost all conservative asian societies are homophobic but in this drama its solely not because there are rumors that HJ can be gay but the rumour that he had a rich sugar daddy that helped him get popular which nullifies his claims that he made it on his own(which is the truth)... there are rumors of yoo ah in being gay but that didnt stop him from getting successful movies and dramas... he is way too talented to go down with gay rumors( even if its true or not)
