One of the cultural differences between the leads is that many things get lost in translation yet the leads characters also matter. Jungo is an introvert (cultural or personal) but he is not the initiator in the relationship. Every time Hong kisses him or hugs him, he gets surprised. PDA is not really a thing in Japan so that is understandable but Jungo doesnât talk. He is only thinking his actions matter. If only he talked about his plans, his differences and his culture, their love would have lasted.
Why do I have a feeling that he will bring them together insteadđ€
Depends on the letter itself imo. We need to see what Jungo wrote in it and IF the FL is ready to move back towards him. I think the miscommunication is the issue but also the leads donât know what they want. Jungo takes a step forward only to meet the FL passing by.
Going through the comments and how people think this drama is so miserable, I started to question myself why I…
People just want a fast romantic drama where everything is happy. I think not everyone gets this drama(especially younger audiences) that shows why adults suffer in relationships. I personally had a similar experience in my life and itâs entertaining to see the story unfold
This should be called âWhat comes after flashbackâ
Letâs say they didnât show any flashbacks, how would the audience know what happened? Basically in the future nothing special is happening, as both leads are struggling badly in the present scenes (see their teary eyes) making wrong choices but what is important is how their love fell apart.
Unpopular opinion but the flashbacks are equally as important as the present time. It's slow and depressing on…
Good point! I am seeing people nagging in the comments about the flashbacks but I also think without the flashbacks the story wouldnât make sense. We need to see what happened before that broke them up because it wasnât simply an overnight matter
