100 Million Stars Ep 7/8
**No Japanese version spoilers please**

Holy cow! I did not see this coming. I did not expect the writers to chop off 2 characters in the drama at midpoint. I feel terrible for Seung Ah. She was naive, stupid and self-centered but death is certainly not what she deserved. What’s worse is she was manipulated into believing that she had a chance with MY and thats’ what put her in that car.
In a way am glad the show did not choose to overdo the sympathy part and took Woo-Sang’s life too. It was a terrible thing to do. To drink and drive and probably chose to kill both of them.
Am not sure how MY escaped this without a scratch.

At this point I don’t feel there is any redemption for Kim Moo Young. Why did SIG have to play this role. And why does my heart still feel hope for him. I want to deplore him. Detest him. And am not able to do so wholeheartedly.

Yoo Jin-Kang – Jung So-Min brought life to her character in this episode 8. Phenomenal performance by her.

We are at midpoint and am not sure how the story will move forward. Jin Kook seems to have made up his mind to go for it and not get weighed down by guilt. Am so glad he spoke to his sister and gave her details of his interaction with MY (usually he keeps things to himself). But Jin Kang is going to do something stupid right? She is so vulnerable now. I am scared for her.

      It’s weird that I’m not disgusted by MY? Despite everything I know about him I still find him fascinating and I felt like crying when he got beaten up. My heart is still going to him and I’m just a viewer. What chance does JK have when he decided to make her his?

      But I have to say I found it disturbing when he didn’t show any emotions at all after SA death. I know he didn’t love her but… he dated her for two months and it freaked me out that he was so calm and nonchalant about the whole accident. He didn’t even care if he died… and that’s scary!

        No you are not alone. I think we all feel that he was wronged so badly that he deserves a chance. But after SeungA, am not sure. He showed no remorse.

        He didn’t care if she died, if he died.. He exactly knew what he was doing when he said ‘Don’t get caught’ when she was already speeding in heavy rains. He had to win. He had to see how far Woo-Sang would go. Will he give up or go all the way risking his own life too?.
        This recklessness is dangerous at so many levels.

        The sister’s reaction to Woo Sang’s death was interesting too. Though they have probably been tormenting each other for decades and lost any feelings towards each other years ago.

          yeah. That was not surprising.
          It was surprising to see SeungA’s mom totally devastated. I really hated her all along. But seeing her during her daughters accident and death, made me feel a tad sorry for her. Losing a child is truly a horrible thing.

          And prepare yourself to see that woman a lot of often 😱 She’s set her eyes on MY already…

      He scares me and after SA’s death and his general indifference to it, he needs a therapist! Having no signs of empathy is the marking of dangerous sociopaths- like serial killers! I want Jin Kang to stay away but I also again feel she would be the only one to save him. Knowing it all she is still attracted to him. Why? I don’t know. I would have run away had I been in her shoes.

        SAME.When the drama cut from JK on the ground at SA’s funeral as she’s sobbing her heart out to MY chilling with his friends/coworkers casually eating. I was like–that is one cold, cold man. And I like that they had JK address that later in the ep: why are you so cold? How can you not feel ANYTHING when SA is dead?

        I really didn’t think they were going to kill SA. I thought we were headed down a road with JK being more and more drawn to MY and SA going insane Single White Female on them. She’s the one I feel the most badly for. She was caught up in a power struggle between two guys who didn’t love her and neither thought twice about risking and ultimately ending her life. I wish we had known more about Woo-Sang because it seemed obvious that he didn’t love SA and just didn’t want to lose/lose to MY. But was he always like that? Did he ever love SA? I hope he did at one point. It is just too sad to contemplate otherwise.

        BUT MY ADMITTING that he would have done the same things knowing that two people would die? Was freaking chilling. Someone said earlier on the fanwall that they watch this drama like a horror film–peaking out from behind their fingers. SAME. SAME! I was ready to poke a toe out of RomCom land but I was NOT ready for this.

          SeungA is going to haunt us for the rest of the drama. How is JK going to ever make peace with MY if she knows what exactly he did (sending back the check, writing a note for elopement etc).
          If someone did this to my only friend I would no way be this calm. I would do everything to put that guy behind the bars. period. The writers are going to being a backstory to justify his behaviour – i doubt I will ever forgive him – a young woman is dead.

          I think WS did love SA. He met MY way later so I don’t think it was because he wanted to win against him. I mean of course he did but his target has always been SA. He still wanted her even after she told him she had slept with MY. Him obsessively drinking and following her in that fateful car chase was proof enough. He loved her but she felt trapped.

          How the writers are going to redeem MY I don’t know. He was arrested for the first girls murder but had I been in law enforcement I would have arrested him for WS and SA’s death too. He led them on to their deaths, there is no mistake there.
