Exactly!!! They already kind of irritated me with the slip up with Seon U (i seriously hoped there wouldn't be any unnecessary triangles). It was only salvaged by Da Rim being so clueless about his feelings. You almost feel sorry for him after ep 6 🤣🤣🤣

You are so right. It doesn't make sense in an ideal world for him to be so smitten but after they subtly showed his relationship with his mum, it kind of made sense. He loves easily and deeply but because of his childhood trauma, he's cautious 🙈

Da Rim is his only exception 🥲
Did you see the prerelease from ep 7? He seriously is the king of loopholes🤣

It was in the scene with the flashbacks of her dad. Right before she applied, she felt guilty for lying- can you recall this in ep 2 I believe? In it there was a scene where she was wearing a similar uniform. If it wasn't from this scene, then it should be from one of Seon U's childhood flashbacks.

But honestly i don't think they'll go for a childhood connection- at least nothing mindblowing. It would be overkill since Seon U already fills that thrope 🙈

Logically it doesn't even really make sense how they would end up in the same dojo(?) given their vastly different financial backgrounds. They might have competed in similar competitions at most but not competed with eachother - but I hope they don't go for this.


I just took the Taikwondo link as the writer's way of portraying how both of them are willing to fight and protect their loved ones since the objective was similar🙈

What do you think?

Da Rim will be paying the loan back. She justified it by seeing it as the least dangerous/ most realistic option at the time (instead of love). It’s fun seeing one ML magically having the ability to send 5 or so loan sharks flying in the air but the Black Card is honestly the best option. She still can pay back without risking her neck.

With getting his help, based on ep 6, it sounds like Da Rim truly doesn’t feel she is worthy of his attention. In her own eyes she’s a fraud who is trying to take advantage of her kind supervisor. She probably doesn’t want to put him in more trouble by telling him the truth since he is unpredictable? Worst case scenario, he fires her. Best case (or rather way worse in her POV now), he continues her lie out of kindness and sympathy for her mother, thereby dragging himself into her issues yet again (since what she did was fraud essentially though I don’t really know how strict Korean corporate rules are).

I could be wrong though. What do you think?

I think it’s the way his desperation is shown? He’s inherently a nice guy BUT he knows (or rather senses) that JH is a threat to his current life with Da Rim. So far things have been going great with their pseudo family (even before THE LIE they’ve been playing “family” unconsciously). His desperation has already forced him to lie to Da Rim several times when it comes to the SFL. Once he realizes that Da Rim likes JH back, he is bound to do something stupid like force Da Rim to see the reality of her’s and JH potential to have a relationship.

Tell me about it….it’s the same from my end🙈
All I do is look forward to Wednesdays now 🙈

BFY might be something you’d be into and each episode is only 15mins so it finishes pretty quickly!

I would say the youth aspect of BFY that’s greater than in LR is the exam side since the past events revolve around their senior year, barely 80 days or so before the Gaokao Exams. Unlike in LR, the ML in this has to take part in exams and other school activities so the FL kind of notices how his shy reserved side performs really well but her “friend” usually bombs exams (let’s face it, can we even recall anything from back then?😂). To explain this, the ML pretends to be secretly bipolar. YES - basically once the future ML leaves his”body”, his other younger past version takes over again with no memories - since the young ML is super shy when he is around his first love, he tends to come off as moody to the young FL at first - on the bright side, unlike poor Sunjae, the FL doesn’t get accused of being a pervert by the younger ML- though he does keep wondering why she is clingy at times 🙈


DK is the best atm - it’s almost scary how invested I am on it🙈

Perhaps it’s like with Ichikatsu? He’s actually much older in 2055 (despite what the hologram shows)? Perhaps it’s 2055’s versions of Shiki and him that actually “die”? But it’s still confusing since doomsday is in 10 years and not 20 years…..unless it was Shiki who will die in the future, causing Kizashi to turn into a “mad scientist” with the intention of rewriting history so that he can save her, even if it meant sacrificing 10mn lives??


Sooo many questions 🙈

I finally had a chance to watch this week’s episode ….damn! Scion is hilarious - he really embodies a cheeky teen really well 😂 It’s hard to believe it’s the same actor who had a career defying existential crisis just few weeks ago🙈

The episode itself was mind blowing 🙈

IKR?! It’s pretty rare to have back 2 back episodes of the same actor - specially when it comes to Jdramas. Might as well enjoy it while it lasts 🤭

You said it correctly - it’s so difficult to find female characters who can balance it so well!

Haha TBH I kind of got catfished into watching Before You Came. I didn’t know there were 2 released under the same name in 2025 and on Kiss, “Back For You - Revers…” indicated 16 episodes were available so I thought THIS was WAU’s drama….but it wasn’t 🙈
It’s good though! Imagine a Cdrama version of Lovely Runner? It’s obviously not the same but it has its own charm. You will probably enjoy it if you like C Youth dramas (and it’s fun trying to guess what happened).

MR - Ahhh! This was on my watchlist but for some reason I can’t bring myself to watch it despite the fact that I like the MC cast. 🙈 I have watched one drama with the SFL (Lovestruck in the City) but her character was kind of meh compared to the MC so I don’t really recall much about her acting 😅


DK honestly salvaged my pointless Kdrama drought this year - I honestly can’t really recall obsessively enjoying even one this year (I did like Tangerines, OUS, 9 Puzzles, Heavenly Ever After, and a few others but they aren’t something you can really rewatch back 2 back).

IKR?! I usually don’t like her type of character but this time I don’t mind at all🙈

She low key reminds me of a horny version of the ML’s sister in MMH (Korean version)😂

Oooh what’s MR?? I’m currently watching “Back for You (Reversing Time)” so haven’t had a chance to watch another ongoing Cdrama. It’s basically like Lovely Runner but with the ML time traveling (“by jumping through dimensions” to avoid censorship)

I’m probably wrong since JH’s sister is usually antsy thanks to his presence but I found it funny how she slammed her phone after seeing HY’s brother’s name on her display (Yu Tae…). It’s kind of a thrope to partner 2 annoying characters together. Call it a passing fancy?

PS: We don’t really know anything about Yu Tae to label him as annoying but the fact that his parents consider him perfect is enough to assume that he should be irritating at least in JH’s sister’s books just for being yet another golden child🙈

Gosh ep 7 was so wholesome 🥲

Thank god Da Rim reacted the way she did 😂

Nah JH is so hopeless for Da Rim that he is willing to go through a loveless marriage just so he can prevent HY from stealing her husband. HY tried to end things because she likes SU but JH completely blocked her.

I just hope that JH doesn’t assume that he is the reason why she is so stressed 🙈

Gahhh why is Seon U bringing out my red flag???🙈 I normally don’t condone ultra clingy love rivals but I keep finding myself cheering at Ha Yeong no matter what she does 😅
Hell, I feel more bad for her than him😅

On a side note, do you think we’ll have another switched couple scenario between the Gong siblings and Yu siblings?🤔 It would be quite ironic ngl if the sister ends up with HY’s brother seeing as he represents everything she hates about JH😂

🤣🤣🤣

He really did seem chill in tonight's pre-release so the kiss couldn't have been that annoying (just irritating since now he can't cling on to his "feelings" for DR )🙈

Regardless of the SMLs's feelings, I just love how the drama shows Da Rim's feelings. There is a clear separation on how she treats different people.

With the SMl, he's her "bro" (you can notice it with the way she speaks to him specially in ep 5). There is absolutely no room for the audience to misunderstand her intensions.
With JH, it's chaos and teasing- even when she tries to be professional with him.

It's the same with the SFL. She annoys and teases JH in a way you can tell that she doesn't really love him eventhough she agreed to marry him. He's just the best option available that would please her family (for now). With the SML, she's a puddle of love and lust 🫠

We can be delulu by claiming that he mixed gratitude and 20 years of friendship with "love" love the moment he realized JH would be taking over his spot as Da Rim's number 1 confidant soon 🤫😉

(Been bingeing too many Cdramas lately and this is usually the excuse given for clingy SMLs but Kdramas love to make things extra melo for SMLs so who knows🙈)

This is correct! They released this clip in the pre-release.
