Did our little clumsy kidnapper made it to the end?
I want him to survive.

Same.
Was PoJ the best drama out there? No. It had its flaws.
But it was a popcorn banger nonetheless. So the high ratings are okay imo.
This drama? Completely different vibe and tale.
I love the psychological aspects. Gives the drama some uniqueness besides the usual family and political intrigues. And the acting and story pacing delivers so far.
So it deserves the high ratings too.

The last episodes drove home, how impressive her character is.
To not only survive in these conditions, but to further develop and hone different skill sets, AND despite her broken mind to thrive in the outside world after she left the mountain?
Just wow.

Tysm.
When I think, that I paid attention the whole time, but obviously still missed some points 😅

Does the little accountant cousin make a reappearance in the last episodes?
Or are we assuming that he died, when the other guy wanted his face?

Just watched ep 24.
The moment, when they spot each other through these planks is heartbreaking and exceptional acting.
The subtle shift in both their faces after their eyes met. The devastation. Especially on HaiXia's face.
That scene will live rent free in in my mind for a long time 😭😭😭

I'm only on ep 10 so far, but needed to look up the age restriction for this show.
13+? WTH?
The last eps felt like a slasher movie with all the stabbing, squishy sounds and red sauce going on (and don't get me started on the ridiculous level of plot armor).

Tysm.
Just rewatched the part. I completely ignored the donat nap. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Question to ep 7:
He started the day as Sun, but later in the day they call and treat him as Solar.
Huh? When did he switch?

Do I think that they have chemistry? H’ yes. They’re fire together. 😁
So I get, where you’re coming from.
But while I love my romance usually just fine, here I hope, they keep it on the level of “maybe”, “could be (in the future)”.
Her maturity level is clearly that of a high schooler. I didn’t detect an “old soul” in her. LOL
He might have some immature and childish tendencies, but in his interactions you still see the maturity of an adult.
That’s my main reason, I don’t ship them at the moment. And it doesn’t look like a drama with a time skip.

She is an 18 year old high schooler. He is at least mid 20 starting a new job position.
Different stages in life. At this point such things matter additionally to the age difference.

That counseling session took an unexpected turn 😂😂😂
But I am a little disappointed, that his ambition to improve her math score got buried so easily.

I giggled through the whole review. 😁
Obv I dodged a bullet when I bowed out after a handful of eps.

Her “I’m sorry” letter had me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I am only on ep 3, but I need to say 2 things.
Furukawa as a nosy god is a vibe with his helper. 😎
And Rin is my MVP. And I have a little crush on her character.

You are not alone.
I love the series, but the last episode left me disappointed.
The only highlights were their talk about future goals, the sketchbook, the NC scene and the finale.
The rest got too syrupy for my taste.
Pae’s line at the festival “The pond is turning into syrup now” I was like “yeah. Would be an apt title for the episode.” 😅

It gets obv only now subbed

I love a witty critique about a bad show.
I got the giggles nearly the whole time 😆

Do I agree with your opinion? Not necessarily.
Did I still enjoy to read your thoughts? 100%. Love your style.
And I get, where you are coming from. Even if my opinion differs.
But I definitely had a crush on their friendship too.

Yeah. They clearly wanted to go full circle.
Which can work beautifully when executed with care.
I was with the 10/10 team too, until I ran into the overly syrupy mess of ep 12 😅.
I still love the show, but will approach the last episode with caution from now on. 😁
