Me, too. I really have to give credit to the FL. That scene is so raw and earnest. As tears were welling up, I was thinking, hmmmm, I don't think there are that many Korean actresses who would be able to make me cry like FL did had they performed the same scene.

Meanwhile I was concerned whether the puddle of water was contaminated with you know what.

Damn! Ep 5 made me cry. This show is just too amazing!

“VVVVVIP” status. 😀

Could Saturday come any faster?! Please?!

yes. I like it a lot.

Yes but I couldn’t get pass ep 6/7 of Crazy Love. CCiR is so much better for me. I laugh so much with this one.

Your point is very credible. At first I thought it was the brother, but after your comment, I now think it’s the assistant,

Very nice! Make me root for these two even more.

It’s part of the director/screenwriter’s style in creating suspense. It’s not just this scene , but throughout all episodes. You realize so many parts are unexplained and not followed up. The viewers have to continue watching to find the answers to the questions, to that seemingly innocent but annoyingly bugging us truth. It’s ingenious!

The director gave us a few interactions between them. It’s rather platonic in how it’s presented but he seems to have a visible presence in saving/helping her a couple of times.

Interesting insights. The victims and targets seemed more linked to the assistant in term of connecting the points.

Me, too!

Information was withheld during the early scenes to us viewers. His name was never given to the audience in his teenage years. Although he had seen FL at that time, there's no indication he has made the connection that FL is the elderly store owner's daughter.

What are you watching while waiting for the weekend?

I don’t think he was misunderstood more so than a case of jealousy. Shallow coworkers and former classmates/friends were green with envy over ML’s success and popularity. They felt they work just as hard (10-12 hours a day) and still struggle with debt, status, career and were no where on the same level. They were adult version of Suh-a or whatever that spoiled brat’s name is; placing blame of their personal failures on others.

I had a feeling ML would be tutoring the girl privately, too. It’s the only sensible solution. This also shows how kind ML truly is deep down. Let’s see what the “condition” is first. I wouldn’t be surprised if he said free food - which I also think it’s actually a nice trade since he knows she’s low on money but doesn’t want her to feel she owes him.

Mine too. Love LJG.

He's been on my radar since "Time Between Dog and Wolf" circa 2007.

Food for Thought: Did you know South Korea has the highest suicidal rate? 1 in 3 students contemplates taking his own life. It's a high stress environment.

CCiR is presenting real life issues there. The tiger moms, the students striving for top educational spots sacrificing all else, the politic and corruption behind the scenes.
