I totally agree that not every soulmate needs to be romantic, BUT they got involved emocionally speaking. When Ji An says that "everyone that helped her only helped 4 times" I still think that there's more into it. There's no way a person would help as deep as DH did without soul connection and love (I'm not saying that this drama approaches a romantic line, becouse it doesn't, but there is love) they did cross a fine line there and Yoon Hee (not only her, but Jung Hee and Ki Hoon as well. Sang Hoon in parts too but as a superego, he pretended not to see it) saw it.
Lost is a good drama, but I think that approaches from a different perspective. Have you start watching My Liberation Notes? 3 Months ago so I hope you did! :D
They didn’t get a divorce. They are clearly separated but in the last cafe scene DH tells his friend that his…
my pov is that DH is waiting his mother to die in a peaceful way before getting a divorce (she says that whats to die seeing her children happily married). Is good to remember that his wife fell in love with another man, she kinda moved on (DH says "I'm forcefully holding on to a heart that wants to fly way", his wife's heart). Yoon Hee is a very western character, while DH is very eastern. He is a tradicional korean man. Also remeber that she never asked for forgiveness for what she did, she never regretted it. Instead asking for forgiveness, she said that she would play by his rules (because she always made fun of him having an affair), his rules = she helped jian out, and she went to live abroad (to not get a divorce bc if she had stayed, they wouldn't stand live together in a loveless marriage, and they would divorce and he would feel ashamed again).
It’s nice to remind people here about the ending: we do know how some things ended, we have a notion of it, and at the same time, we know that this ending has “life itself”, it is constantly moving, changing and going back. its life. It can’t have a happy ending or a very closed one, because that’s not how life is.
If you want a closed ending, you should watch romance genre, not slice-of-life.
PYH has a gif, I'm so glad to have her as my fav writer.
