Putting the two adorable puppies aside, I actually felt pretty bad for Soo-ah this ep. I kinda wish they would have taken a more gradual approach with her story, rather than hitting us with it right at the very end. We would have spared her some of that intense hatred had they taken the former approach! But also, we’d have gotten the chance to sympathise with her a tad bit more.
This is why in the webtoon, sad and tragic her story is, I could not sympathize with her. The webtoon is still not translated to end, so we are still on Soo Ah’s arc, but we’ve seen snippets of her past (pretty much what the drama portrayed tonight), but I just can’t. I think about the things she did and said to Mirae, I simply can’t. Kyungsuk and I are the same, we side eye Mirae for being too nice to her. She too is a victim of “beauty” trapped in the eyes of society that’s judging cruely, but how she copes up with it was just something I cannot overlook.
And What?! You hated Mirae because her plastic surgery came out good and that makes you not so rare anymore? Pity, her mindset is really a f. up.
I love the gentleness of the kiss, but what really got me is how emotional it is leading up to it. The final step, an important and a big one: Mi-rae is able to let the man she loves to re-visit her old face, the source of her long suffering and her deep insecurity. She is able to do so because the man she loves sincerely misses it. He sees her as the woman she is, grown from the girl she was.
Just pure love. It has been a long while that I feel this satisfied about a first kiss.
I’ve said it before, but damn I seriously love LSH’s acting!! She displays Mi-rae’s insecurities in every fleeting expression. You’re right, the lead up to the kiss was incredibly emotional. Full of warmth, but also heartbreaking at the same time, knowing how fearful she was of being rejected due to her former portrait. I really hope she’s able to face her past self with confidence in the final ep, and come to terms that she was indeed always beautiful to begin with.
YESSSSSSSS, Definitely my top fave in this episode. It’s so raw and beautiful. When he said he missed her face, Mirae laid everything out, her heart, her courage, her insecurity, all of it. All because she loves him and wants to listen to his wish. And when Kyungsuk saw her face TT______TT he had such a longing look seeing her old face. He really loves her TT____TT I felt it. It was strong. I cannot.
Seriously, Soo Ah, had you been in this room and witnessed Kyungsuk’s facial expression as he saw her old face again for 3 seconds, you’d def take whatever trash you told Mirae to purposely hurt her.
Her last attempt to hurt MR felt so desperate….the comment of how she prefers natural scent over artificial one. I was so proud that MR just looked at the concerned KS and shrugged it off with a smile. So proud of uri girl!
She is very desperate. Everything starts to crumble before her, and now it feels like she’s back to where she was before, dirt. And I am indifferent about it as she did the exact same thing to elevate herself from other girls.
That perfume comment was really low. Good thing she said it at a point in Mirae’s life where her confidence has risen up and unlikely to be shaken
It was a split sec, but you definitely see KS’s eyes softening when he saw her old face in the pic after a long time – he wasn’t kidding when he says he missed it from time to time.
He really does <333 It was all he saw in his middle school – her face, her physique. He didn't care about anything else, but somehow, whenever she was there walking around school, his eyes would drift towards her.
SSIIIIIIGHHH.. I have no words TT_________TT I cannot calm down.
It’s so beautiful. Mirae and Kyungsuk’s first kiss, so raw and intimate, and it happened just right after Mirae bared it all to him – it’s not a wonder he was so in love and kissed her right there. It was the perfect moment. He wanted to make her feel more loved and adored. And there’s Mirae accepting his love TT_____TT I am so lost for words.
Omg omg omg!! I’m struggling to compose myself while watching this with my boyfriend. The funny thing was that when I can’t hold myself anymore, I started to blurt out how proud noona I am with all the giggles and such. 😂 Wow! That’s their effect and my boyfriend was so weirded out by my actions! 😂😂😂

Her reasoning was really hard to fathom! ES’s reaction to when SA said that was equally priceless – yup, definitely needs help that one!
