my take was that Hyang Mi washes her hair in the sink maybe? lmao but it could just be that it hasn't been cleaned in a long while

They made it seem like his old dealer set him up by calling the police beforehand, but anyway if they wanted it to be realistic why didn't they give him a happy ending??? Like lgbtq people have happy endings too honestly??? but then again this isn't the US and the media and society aren't too keen on accepting over there it still. His ending is the only badly written thing in the drama and it's just plain cruel tbh. It also didn't even feel like a natural move in the plot. Like you said, in the drama there's no explanation given as to how he ended up in the car with his former dealer and Hanyang had been doing so well and he was really determined to stay clean so it's not like he'd immediately head back to his dealer. His boyfriend and his father and (unknowingly) his mother were waiting for him too. I was so upset after seeing that scene I immediately burst into tears and had to take a break because I had a panic attack. I'm still really upset. I was rooting for this drama and his character so much because everything was going so good and then...it just... didn't. Overall, I really did enjoy this drama despite the emotional turmoil I went through. Other aspects of the drama were handled really well. If there is a season two I really hope they continue with Captain Yoo's retrial maybe? and fix Hanyang's situation...I'm bitter.

This wasn't the best, but the acting was amazing and the plot was interesting to say the least, even though it was rushed. Also, and it's seemingly still a long shot, but I wish South Korea would treat lgbtq relationships with more respect in the media (+ in real life) like say, having a nice happy ending without any cheating and emotional or physical abuse/manipulation thrown in the plot.

Ohhh, yes when you explain it that way it makes a lot of sense! And I'd thought the same about it being a love triangle in the beginning, but after a while of reading scenes and figuring out subtext I then realized, like you've also said, how centered Woo Tak is concerning Jae Chan. Although it's clear he cares for Hong Ju too, I just don't see it as a romantic thing. I've also just watched the two new episodes that came out today and they don't sway my opinion in any way on anything else tbh. So for now this theory is what I'll continue routing for!

I was contemplating for a while if I should've added the breakfast table scene as an example to my theory and what you've said is also what I've been thinking/have read the scene as. Honestly, I agree with everything you're saying here except maybe the confrontation scene though. I'm starting to flip flop because if it is true that Woo Tak is gay it could either be that his old roommate is his ex or he's just someone who knows/is out to. There's also another example I guess I could add to this because I feel that Woo Tak might like Jae Chan, and it's what happens after us, the viewers, see that Woo Tak witnessed Jae Chan and Hong Ju kiss. I noticed that after Hong Ju walks away and when the camera pans to Woo Tak, he's looking at Jae Chan on the monitor and he's looking at him kind of sad, but accepting. That might just be the way I'm perceiving it though I'm not sure.

I've been getting the vibe that he might like Jae Chan honestly, but he also cares for Hong Ju as a friend which is so refreshing to see instead of the tiring love triangle trope that's very prominent in the romance genre. Personally, from the beginning I've been routing for the three of them together, but that's definitely out of the question given the way the media/society is in South Korea. It would be one hell of a plot twist though, and a very amazing and progressive one, if Woo Tak does turn out to be gay! Btw I have seen the theories about his old roommate being his ex, which I kinda suspected myself tbh and it just makes it all the more a convincing theory in my opinion. :)

All of y'all have the same theory that Woo Tak might turn out to be the bad guy because Hak Young threatened to out his secret to the police. But honestly, if you really think about it and read the subtext going on throughout the episodes, mainly concerning scenes between Jae Chan, Hong Ju and Woo Tak (and in extension, the way Woo Tak seemingly takes no romantic interest in girls), he probably might be gay. I wonder if anyone else is thinking the same thing. I'd really like to know! Just a bisexual's intuition here~

it's only two episodes in y'all...i get that some of you don't like do ha already, but do you really have to make misogynistic comments about her (how you don't like her hair, personality, expressions, etc.) because you don't like that she's most likely going to be paired with seol woo?? like just give her a chance please.
