Writer-nim opened her Room 19 to us, but it seems to be laden with threads too tangled up for me to handle. For the first 14 episodes, I’ve always enjoyed reading Ji-ho’s introspection and book quote narratives. But Ji-ho lost me at 15 and 16. We all cheered for her when that cliffhanger at episode 6 (โ€œNo, I donโ€™t have a boyfriend.โ€) turned out to be different from what we thought was her being petty. But then she went playing mind games with Se-hee big time at the penultimate episode? Really?
