#39, I didn’t stop watching/recapping this drama merely because Episode 2 was disappointing. Obviously my reaction to the episode factored in, but when you’re watching (and recapping!) as many dramas as I am at any given time, it’s a matter of time as well. As you may guess, drama-watching takes up a lot of time, and drama-recapping even more. It’s always a juggling act, and it doesn’t mean I think the series wasn’t good; Insoon just didn’t fulfill (for me) what I’d hoped it would in the beginning. I did try watching a few more episodes, but wasn’t convinced enough to continue given the other dramas I had/have on my plate.

javabeans, I can’t believe you stopped summarizing this drama just because Episode 2 wasn’t totally awesome. I’m kind of disappointed.

This drama is seriously amazing, if you continue it. This drama is filled with such emotion that hasn’t been present is ALMOST ALL dramas. I’m not biased because I like the actors, because honestly, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of or seen them. The storyline AND their acting is just wonderful. In my opinion, everything in this drama just FLOWS.
Please continue this drama, I beg of you.

I guess I’m a little late watching this drama, kinda stumble upon it one day, watched the beginning of the 1st episode which seemed to drag so i stopped. somehow, i made myself go back and watch it and was amazed to find that the drama is quite interesting, so much different from the typical love dovey with an illness type of story. Anyhow, I love this song sung by Chae Dong Ha but can’t seem to find the romanization lyrics for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I enjoyed INSOON more than most would believe and/or agree with.
And the SOOMPI thread was outstanding – we watched the last SEVEN episodes through a collaborative effort of translations…. (no WITHS2 subs released)
The small group pulled together and developed such a fun sense of comraderie.
I for one will miss INSOON.
We took turns watching episodes – and when one’s live stream failed-
another person picked up -
There were scene breakdowns – lively discussions over the wearing of sneakers as a “youth” metaphor -
Small details were observed – we kept track of recurring musical themes – including but not limited to the use of the 1970′s Carpenter’s song CLOSE TO YOU!
“why do birds, suddenly appear – everytime you are near -
just like me, they want to be……close to you…”
It was like sitting in a room with the 1st, 2nd and 2nd 2nd AD!!
mixed in with the script supervisor – and music supervisor -
anyway – i good time was had by all -
and not once did a war break out over the use of the word “bastard” (check out a certain SOOMPI thread for an ongoing series!)

Gramps, obviously your taste and my taste in what we call “entertainment” differ so be it. I don’t know what you’re watching that you’re raving about but I don’t find Insoon as nearly as entertaining as you do. You don’t have to agree or disagree – its just my opinion. I think I gave the show the benefit of the doubt (9 episodes so far) and I’m just saying that I am not drawn to the storyline yet nor am I anticipating what’ll happen next, which tells me that I’m not entertained by the storyline or any of the characters. Some of you might find it “splendid” but some others like myself don’t – rather I find it somewhat boring. Maybe I have been spoiled by Coffee Prince and Fantasy Couple………
Hope all of you fans of the series enjoy the rest of it!

#33 EmmaC, well: from that description, I don’t know which drama you, and several other commenters in a similar vein, were watching. Maybe the one javabeans gave up on so suddenly, again after providing an account of episode 2 which I found pretty hard to match up with what I for one saw there. But there are rather a lot of us who have been eagerly watching what appears to be quite a different, and in its admittedly “unspectacular” way, rather splendid drama with the same name and on the same channel and have been utterly captivated by every aspect of it, as well as enjoying sharing and developing our views on Soompi, since we regrettably had no encouragement to do so here.

A great pity, in my view, that this blog, which has done so much to foster the intelligent understanding of KDrama worldwide, cast what I would say is one of the finest Kdramas of the year so abruptly and inexorably to one side. Though we must still be grateful for having had our attention drawn to it in the first place.

I just had to comment…….after watching dramas like Coffee Prince and Fantasy Couple (this one just recently), I am not very keen on Insoon. It’s really really slow, and there isn’t alot of exciting moments, nothing spectacular about the plot, and it’s not funny/cute enough either. I watched upto Episode 9 hoping for something dramatic to happen but unfortunately no. I can’t imagine what the rest of the story has in store but it doesn’t seem like it will be anything worth watching…….nothing spectacular……. Too bad…….
