Her earlier awkward behaviour makes sense too, considering that she was only doing it because she believed that was how she had to survive. Even when she confronted her boyfriend about cheating, she was resigned – she knew it all already but had chosen to cling to foolish hope.

But watching her when she’s in her element, disillusioned and not under Chi Soo’s spell is so so so rewarding! It’s sad that it took a death for her to come to her senses about the way she’s living, but I’m happy she’s not hiding under a blanket of ignorance anymore. Okay, just gonna go watch that epic school exit scene again!

Please, no more doormat scenes though! And more Chi Soo embarrassment please! He’s missed a whole lifetime of being told he’s wrong. Side note: I can already feel I’m going to get second lead syndrome with this drama 🙁
