APAD ep 11- Based on the preview, it looks like it’s Dr.Ye. But then drama logic states that they won’t be endgame. It’s very rare that the couple gets together before the finale week or episode. So that’s it. I’m hanging up my boots. I can’t play this shipping game anymore. I’m sorry ye-liners. For my own sanity, I’m going to the isle of neutrality. I’ll still be partial to ye-line though. @wishfultoki,or any other islanders is it too late to join? Can you pick me up?
Thanks @jenmole for going on rescue duty for me! I know how you feel @superwhopotterluck… I’m sitting here in my Ye Liferaft drinking rum. Join me?
I just want the shipping game to be over and done with actually – it’s starting to hurt character development. I still don’t get how MinHo changed so quickly, and Dr. Ye is still too mysterious and hesitant. I hope tonight proves me wrong, but meanwhile, pass me the rum!
I’m a teetotaler…despite my age. .SIGH. But I will definitely pass you the rum and join you with a cocktail. That still means I’m a teetotaler right? *confused*.
Even I’m tired of the shipping game. Minho has improved at a lightning speed, which, by drama standards is perfectly normal. So now I’m even more convinced that he’s the one. Though it breaks my heart. Guess I’ll drink my sorrows away, the best I can with cocktails and enjoy the short period of ye bliss.
The ‘elephants and pony rides’ made me laugh out loud in a public place and the guy at the table next to me (who is on his phone) gave me an angry glare.

Actually in every kdrama main leads start dating in episode 12. I am talking about 16 episode dramas. 1 episode of happiness, 2 episodes of angst/noble idioticy/mini break-up, final episode with couple reunion/happiness
Usually in those dramas, it’s pretty clear who’s the main lead and the 2nd lead . here both are Co-leads with both expressing the traits of main as well as 2nd lead. It’s pretty ambiguous at least to me.
And why do they have to have noble idiocy/separation angst for 2 eps? Is it so hard for them to be together for 5 eps?
*frustrated ramblings of an ex-shipper*
Yeah, I hate angst and mini break ups too. It’s still pretty ambiguous, but here are my frustrated ramblings:
Plot-wise, we have to deal with more issues with a Bo Young/Ye pairing:
– He doesn’t want to date at work. He hates gossip. So problems will arise if they do start dating.
– Bo Young is still a contract worker. What will happen once her contract is up?
– Hospital politics: They could affect Dr. Ye (while Min Ho is just a trainee). If so I suggest he leaves and goes into teaching, like his friend said, since he is a good lecturer.
Min Ho/Bo Young don’t have any problems if they date now. Min Ho’s future crisis will be to decide if he wants to become a good physical therapist and study hard. I don’t expect his family will care if he dates or not.
Sort of concluding: if Ye and Bo Young don’t start dating now, I don’t think Bo Young will end up with any of the guys. Possible open-ended ending with an improved Min Ho.
Wow! You make some very good points,though they’re detrimental to ye-line.
1. He seemed ok with dating at work when it was going well. It’s only after her ex cheated on him that he made that rule. There’s still a possibility, but BY is a different person. It necessarily doesn’t have to be the same way.
2. I don’t think they’ll have a problem with long distance. Plus remember this is a drama. Everything will magically work out in the end. Not the OTP, but she might get a full time position.
3. They haven’t really focused on politics,one of the reasons I like this drama. And there’s no rule against co-workers dating. But you’re right- he can become a lecturer. Again I don’t see why they can’t deal with long distance. Technically I don’t think they’ll have to be in separate places, just different places of work.
* I’m supposed to be neutral. yet here I am* old habits die hard.
Hehe, what I mean is that it would be more smooth sailing for Bo Young & Min Ho, but not for Bo Young and Ye… and since we have 4 more episodes it points more towards Ye (IF he confesses in ep. 12).
I’ll stop making conjectures and go watch the drama LOL.
Minho- Yes they’re no problems now. But I can’t digest this sudden interest of his in poetry. Granted, love changes you. But still, the reason why I prefer dr.ye is because he started liking poetry before liking Boyoung as a person. it’s a very fundamental part of her personality. Whereas minho only started liking poetry after liking boyoung. I’m not able to explain this properly. I hope you understand what I’m talking about.
