No way we’re making a Lovely Runner playlist with old songs, and we don’t add THE k-pop “noona song” as Tae Seong’s pick. We all know he would sing this to his favorite halmoni.
Without trying, I ran into two anti-Eun-Trash second leads today.
Tae Seong from Carry Sun Jae and Lawyer Park from Innocent Man. I guess lawyer Park isn\’t really the SL, but still.
#InnocentMan15
PS. How come I\’ve watched this show four times and this is the first time I notice how good it is? LOL
Hi T. Finally I am free. I laughed a lot during episode 6 but also there were these hints of sadness that were ever-present.
I thought again how good most of the main actors are and how most of the tropes were slightly subverted to good effect:
– The hilarious/mocking scene of the overwrought dialogue Sungjae imagined between Sol and Taesung:
– Sungjae pulling back from being a hormonal jerky teen and instead being a sweet dork.
– Sol’s intensified feelings for Sungjae creating a conflict within herself about her mission and how to reconcile that with her knowledge that she can’t stay in this past with this sweet and dorky 19 year old. In real life 19 year old boys are not so sweet like Sungjae.
I’m wondering if in the OG past, Taesung dropped out of HS because of the trauma associated with Sol’s accident and maybe his feelings for her. The past that she couldn’t remember and still doesn’t remember entirely.
I hope mum survives.
Still cam’t stand the useless brother character and those are wasted scenes.
Agreed!
It would be fun to have Sol, Tae Seong, Sung Jae and the three besties become a team, instead of having the bestie waste her time with the bro.
1. Sung Jae’s imagination is wild. When he runs scenarios in his head, he goes for the craziest possibilities.
2. Everytime he remembered his friend’s advice, and he tried to “act cool”… 😂😂😂👌
3. This is the first time we see her just be herself with him. I think this was the first episode where she didn’t freak out about “saving” him, and was herself.
Yes! alasecond has the theory that Tae Seong got into a fight because kids were picking on Sol after the accident, and that’s why he gets expelled.
We know mom survives since she’s fine in 2023. That’s a relief.
I only skipped one scene in the entire episode and it was his scene with the friend.
Dohhh! Of course I should’ve remembered about mum!
Forgot to say that Tae hid his light under a bushel so well as they say given how caring and sweet he could be. Such adorable fictional 19 year olds should also exist in the real world.
I also liked how well Song Geonhee suppressed his sparkling charm because of his scenes needing to demonstrate contrition and the realisation of his feelings for Sol. He is a good actor.
And, last but not least, how charming and funny Sol and Sunjae continue to be despite the underlying drumbeat of sadness and grief.
Tae Seong’s sudden confession while they were breaking up, was everything. “Oh, I guess I did like you” “wait, I think I like you a lot. What”. 😂 Geon Hee is doing great as Tae Seong.
Yes! Sol Sun are adorable, even when their original story/connection is so heartbreaking.
But I just can’t stop smiling when they’re together, and I keep forgetting all the mess that’s waiting for them in the future.
Kim Hyeyoon packs a formidable temper. I pity anyone that might become the justifiable focus of her fury IRL!
And, Byeon Wooseok is just so believable as a 19 year at times despite his real age. Some times the camera just captures the sweetness, confusion, dorkiness and uncertainty of that age so beautifully. It is writ large on his face and that becomes memorable.
I think all three leads will get KD success wings because of their hard work and empathetic collective acting.
Oh, and forgot to say how much I loved and laughed at the added humiliation for Sol when she discovered to her horror that young Sol had recorded another horrible aegyo filled love declaration for Tae when the giant bear’s paw/heart got squeezed!
Yes! They’re all wonderful and I hope they get the recognition they deserve.
But Woo Seok is my guy. Wtv he’s selling as Sun Jae, I’m buying it. He really gets me in every single scene.
The teddy bear scene was hilarious! OG Sol never disappoints. She’s awesome at making 2023 Sol regret all her life choices. 🤣
But Woo Seok is my guy. Wtv he’s selling as Sun Jae, I’m buying it.
@enriquequierecagar Catch some of the BTS which shows him being funny and silly. He mimicks KHY’s cycle ride and also keeps eating the prop popcorn in the theatre scene.
Ah! what a rabbit hole you sent me in @emsel couldn’t stop watching all the videos that kept popping up. They make such a cute couple I almost forgot Rowoon for a moment. 😭🙈🙃
@seeker Ikr! KHY has chemistry with all her costars and the BTS for “Extraordinary You” were loads of fun because both the dudes (Lee Jae Wook and Rowoon) kept teasing her and their interactions gave a close buddies vibe, but here BWS and KHY give a comfortable flirty vibe (I don’t know if BWS acted same with his other costars)
Emma, the preview confused me so much.
It seems like she stopped the accident from happening. That means everything changes! I have no idea what’s going to happen next week. I can’t wait!
T, have you seen this? You should become a TongTong too!
“ The new fan club name 우체통 (mailbox) is a play on the first letter of his first name Woo. The full meaning is “TongTong’s who think of Wooseok as the best”. Netizens felt that they did a good job changing the name, and praised the agency for taking this matter seriously’.
Em, I’m like the worst fan an artist could have. Hahaha. I’m too lazy to stan anyone properly, and I already have too many favorites.
So I’ll just send him my good wishes from the distance.
T, if you have the time and don’t mind, could you please gif the scene from ep 2 when Sol and Tae are running away from the reinforcements coming to get them? It starts at 13.01 and finishes around 13.21.
Thank you!
You got the wrong quick nunchi bear for this task, my friend. I’m the bear that only takes semi-decent screenshots, while uri Cera is the gifs master.
Maybe @seeker can help us?
I wish we could have a watch party for the remaining 10 eps.. The Viki comments are mostly so dumb and cringeworthy that I avoid it like the plague but it would have been nice if there was something like that on an invitation only basis.
And, I really hope the creepy cabbie is a distraction and Sol can free herself and get away. Of course, still a horrific and traumatic experience.
I like the editing that it takes us back a little from ep5 ending to show that Sol already broke up with Tae-Song after giving TS halmeoni advice. Too late for you now TS, but I hope you remain good friends with Sol.
She’s really cool. It was so perfect that even if he wasn’t earlier (which he totally was) Tae Sung would have fallen in love with Sol then and there – head butt and all. 🤣
How I wish Jang Shin-yu had done something similar in Destined With You. It was never clear why he never broke up.with 2FL for aeons after being with Hong-jo. Thoughts … @Kurama!?
He broke up, she didn’t and went to his father, using them. He was being nice with her for the time they spent together. He made a deal to not tell right away for her pride. If he didn’t want to date Hong-Jo openly just after it’s because people would have talked about Hong-Jo behind her back and hurt her.
But a lot of the story was about the fact he was in the deny because of the love potion.
But he also had The Matchmaker, right? so I guess his fans are kinda happy?
I haven’t been able to finish one In Guk drama in like 6 years. So I low-key envy you. 😂
I’ve been thinking of rewatching SKL or Hello Monster, but I just want to to see him in a new show that isn’t about dying/dead people, or killers. 😆 He just doesn’t know how to pick them.
But it’s fine, 😒 I’ll probably rewatch Hello Monster since Innocent Man is so intense, and after finishing it I’ll need something more intense.
It was a clever amplifying effect but something with Sol’s reaction – undoubtedly more will be revealed – undercut the emotional effect of it for me. The first four eps have upped the ante so I wanted that realisation to land more quietly and contemplatively. I found ep 5 a mixed bag – not enough charming Taesung but unwelcome sinister cabbie, annoying brother, etc.
I don’t think Sol likes Sung Jae yet.
I think she had a few heart fluttering moments, but I think she still has this “idol”/”savior” image of him, more than anything else. She’s really focused on her mission, and knows that she will go back to 2023 soon, so I think that’s why she reacted that way.
I’m okay with that, because she hasn’t really show anything about liking him “that way”, and the confession was more about Sung Jae thinking of himself. I’m happy for him… even if he gets rejected, hahaha.
Oh, the brother and her friend are really… something. I would prefer more scenes of Sung Jae’s bestie and the band than those two.
I agree. I guess it has to be this way from their narrative perspective as the trajectory has to begin, take root, develop further and result in her own growth and reckoning with life, pain, loss and love.
It is unfortunate how boring the brother’s character is. And, sadly, the acting is so underwhelming. The bestie’s character could have been a contender but is underwritten so far.
I feel like the bestie character would’ve been better if her focus was on being Sol’s bestie. The same way we see Sung Jae’s friend be there for him, it would’ve been nice to see more interactions between the girl friends.
We know she has been there for Sol in the good times and the bad times. She seemed to help her a lot in the future (present?), so it would be nice to see them hanging out more in the past.
It would’ve been nice to see all of them (the leads, besties, and Tae Seong) become friends and have a twinkling youth. But they gave her a random love line with the bro, and he’s just so… unnecessary for the story. He feels random than the serial killer, tbh. 😂🤣
You said it. If the bestie cannot be fully fleshed out, at least they should be spending much more time hanging out as besties do. That has been a odd omission.
Brother feels more random than the serial killer!!! Tabong 💃 you are literally the BEST. 😘
As @HopefulRomantic has very astutely pointed out the serial killer may actually have a purpose. Hopefully linked to somehow / anyhow letting Sun-Jae live in the future… because PLOT. I don’t need any explanation or narrative coherence for the serial killer. Just #savesunjae 🙏
@seeker exactly. We know why the killer is here. While the brother… Most of the time I forget he exists.
Except for the show telling us that he’s Sol’s oppa, he seems to have -100 relevance in her life. And zero emotional connection with her.
One strange scene in the show was the fire incident. That guy SAW his dongsaeng getting into a house on fire and he just left her there. He didn’t tell her to get out and he didn’t come back to see if she was okay, or help extinguish the fire, after helping the friend.
And, in general, it’s just weird that all the scenes of HER oppa are of him hanging out with HER best friend. All he has done in the show is scam a high schooler into paying for his teeth and clothes.
Also putting heteronormativity to one side, what an interesting and charming couple Taesung and Sunjae would make. After the tweensie orange jacket tension, Taesung’s comment made me think about that alternate universe possibility.
On a different note, have there been any hints that I might have missed about how long can Sol stay in the past each time? She has one more chance of being able to travel to the past if she gets hurled back to 2023 according to the drama’s lore so far, right?
The first time she stayed for months, and I thinking this time it was the same.
She only has one more chance? I feel like I only pay attention to the cute scenes. 😂🤣
All I know is that she has to come back to 2023 before the accident, and go back to 2009 after the radio incident, otherwise the timeline is going to be erased.
Oh, somehow it went over my head that she stayed for months on the first go. I thought it was only a few weeks.
So, if it is the case for the second trip as well, why is it still summer?
I remember that she mentioned that she stayed for months, then while she was in 2023 OG Sol owned her body for ten days. But she still had time before the accident. At least a month.
I think I’ll go back to that scene and see what’s going on. Maybe I got everything wrong, hahaha.
Yep. The first time it was two months.
She came back on September. But I don’t know how much time it has been since then. I don’t remember the date of ger accident, and I couldn’t find the scene where she mentions it.
But that means she’s going to have to wait months before coming back. But the problem is that time doesn’t seem to work the same in both timelines… Maybe I shouldn’t try to figure this out. 😂 Kdramaland will do its magic.
T, I’ve not been able to find the Taiwanese original so only saw the Korean version. It was justified because the main lovers travelled across time to save each other and be reunited but the young girl was collateral victim in a significant portion of the story. Just horrible.
You’re right.
She already had problems with her identity and self worth. And the couple only made it worse.
And having no control over your body is like one of the scariest things that can happen to someone. I can’t imagine what it would be to not only not having control, but to literally watch someone else taking over and just literally stealing your life. All you can do is watch.
T, I hope not. I didn’t like the Korean remake. I still have flashbacks to that poor high school girl being locked in that no place horror show where she saw someone else usurp her body and expel her spirit. The stuff nightmares are made of.
@DncingEmma I didn’t know usernames could be changed but no worries. My autocorrect had your “correct” username but it currently seems off. It even corrected fiesty to Fiesta.
Aww, Cera, thank you so much!!
It makes me happy you see my comments that way. Most of the time I worry I didn’t express myself well.
And I would say you have a similar effect in me, since your comments all seem to have so much energy and brightness and positivity. It’s like you leave little colors all around the site.
@enriquequierecagar Regarding Someday or One Day, the Taiwanese original of A Time Called You, and possibly a spoiler if you haven’t seen either:
…
Yes, in the TW show, the “original”/earlier timeline girl’s consciousness was trapped in a scary nowhereland while the “new girl” FL unwittingly took over her body. That part is the same in both shows. It’s clear in both that it’s not something the “new”/later timeline FL did intentionally and that it took a while for her to become aware that she was usurping a body that still had its original identity floating in this weird state of helplessness. As @DncingEmma says, the stuff of nightmares.
I am wondering next time when she leaves for her present time, can she take the brother with her? Her bestie and bro are the worst combo ever. And they are still in touch, so it’s odd they have not showed anything.
Yeah, I was wondering if I missed something at the beginning of the show (in 2023), because I don’t remember them mentioning a relationship between those two.
And if they were nothing in the OG timeline, why would that change in this one? And why should we care?
Uhmmm, wrong show? This drama isn\’t the one about tears so why am I crying?
Sung Jae\’s dad and Sol were so freaking sweet trying to protect our boy, and then he\’s like \”I\’m fine. No regrets. I was happy\”. 🥺 Watching him genuinely happy (and blocking the view of everyone behind him. DUDE YOU\’RE GIANT, GO TO THE BACK), while watching the competition of another swimmer was so heartbreaking… Or heartwarming? I don\’t know if I\’m sad or what.
Fun fact, the swimmer guy was on 2 days and 1 night where he told the cast how much he has come to hate being in water… and once he quit sports, he absolutely hates going back in water so much so that he doesn’t take bath daily if he can help it
They really can cry.
I usually only like taking screenshots of pretty scenes and heartwarming moments, but this episode made me want to capture all the heartbreak.
Idk why they always wait to get to Germany to talk things out, fight, and make up, but I really liked how open they were with each other this episode.
Same. They’re the cutest!
And I love that even though Soo Cheol almost ruined their date (unintentionally), he didn’t let him. This is the man uri Beom Ja needs!!
I’m amazed at how hectic their Germany schedule would have been. Shooting for the honeymoon, first trip after diagnosis and now second trip for surgery. They would probably have had to shoot for all three at the same time in one location. 🤯 Hat’s off to the cast and crew.
Yeah, I feel like they most have spent a lot of time filming there. But it turned out great, and Germany became such a meaningful place for their story. So I guess all the extra effort they had to do (like taking the ToD there too) was worth it.
I\’m not surprised with anything that happened, because we all kinda saw it coming, but I\’m really surprised with the characters reactions to it.
Like three episodes ago, they all run to the hospital after Hae In fainted but now that she\’s having a MEMORY RESET IN ANOTHER CONTINENT, they all just wait at home? Her parents should\’ve been there, waiting for her, with her freaking childhood photo album.
Classy mistress sends a truck of doom to their door, and Hyun Woo doesn\’t call anyone to figure out wtf was that about? He doesn\’t call Grace again or tells Hae In\’s family? For all he knows, they could be next.
And that is why I feel that now I’m being manipulated for squeezing out maximum tears. Its too late to back out now, I’m too invested but Hyun-woo does seem to have had a brain freeze.
My reaction exactly. Why did they go alone to Germany?
Idk, it seems like their treating her illness like “their thing”. As if Hae In was going to be cured by Hyun Woo’s love or something.
And they kinda did that since she chose to have the surgery for him, but Idk why her parents couldn’t go there after they heard that she agreed to get surgery.
I can’t believe the first thing she had to see after waking up was Eun-bullshit.
50% of the episode is just Hae In being the cutest person in the world.
And the other 50% is relationships goals.
All type of relationships goals.
The dads\’ bromance is my favorite, but that scene Beom Ja had with her future hubby was the sweetest and most heartbreaking moment of the episode for me.
We also had Hae In and her mom bonding a little more. 💚 Soo Cheol thinking of what he needs to do to protect his family. 💚
I just love this show.
PS. The parents being so done with Hyun Woo\’s hyung and noona is so relatable. \”Don\’t go around saying you\’re my kid\” LMAO
I can see Eun-snake falsifying that test from miles away. But maybe a new baby would made her remember the one she lost (therefore, the father of both).
1. If there\’s a top 10 FLs you would take with you to a time travel trip, desert island, or getting stock in a webtoon situation, Yeon Woo is up there in the top 10.
This woman adapts FAST.
2. This show is just fun. So much fun. It doesn\’t matter that I know everything they\’re going to say, and everything that\’s going to happen. I still enjoy it a lot.
And it\’s fun noticing the little details that let you know what legendary scene is coming next!
3. The facial expressions in this show are everything. They are killing me!!
I love how Kang Cheol 1.0 used to go from cutie to gangsta to chill to flirt to gangsta again to classy to cutie again.
And I love how Yeon Woo used to be just a walking chaos. The most unpredictable girl ever. She would always look confused and scared and then she would do/say something totally random and she would go back to acting confused again. 😂
4. And of course not only the characters as individuals are a ride, the insane dynamic those two have is the real thing!
Only Yeon Woo and Kang Cheol can go from slapping to kissing to showing underwear to kissing again to shooting each other to \”I love you. No I don\’t\” to \”are you married?\” \”no\” \”good to know 😉\”
5. I\’m trying to figure out who\’s the real victim here.
Kang Cheol for being the ML of a drama about catching a killer when there\’s no killer, so he lost his family and 15 years of his life for nothing? Or the dad that just wanted to give up on everything and drink but suddenly his fictional character came to life and made him go insane? Or is it Yeon Woo that had to stop her on life to fill the plot holes in her dad\’s work and help her fictional-but-real boyfriend get closure?
6. I love Yeon Woo\’s boss/professor so much! He hates the sudden romantic plot in W (action/thriller webtoon), the same way we hate serial killers in our romcoms. He\’s practically us. 😂
And from his perspective, Yeon Woo is the annoying SL. I know how he feels. He\’s me.
I went and watched the bts clip just now cuz of y’all talking about it lol So cute!! She’s so chill about it 🥰 This is why I like HHJ— she’s so laid back, not pretentious, and not showy nor does she act all coy or coquettish in front of her very good looking male costars, she’s always just herself
oh the famous BTS where LJS is on bed , heartrate being monitored … and the cast is chit chatting and HJ suddenly touched him and his heart rate shot up crazy levels…
lol.. fanboy for sure… i need lovely runner to also tell me whom will HJ marry
(Moving PD tried very hard to set her up with JIS by filming their scenes on romantic days)
I rewatched it last weekend! I’d forgotten how much I loved it and how fun it was esp. for the first few episodes. Made me go on a Lee Jong-suk spiral again and I’m now rewatching his Park Hye-ryun trilogy starting with I Can Hear Your Voice.
My live watch list is only 2 dramas, so mostly I am spending my time on oldies and I give them a lot of leeway to keep my sanity and enjoy watching them. I succeeded in not bringing my modern views to judge old kdramas.
Congratulations! 👏 👏 👏 That is a skill I wish I had. Despite my soft spot for the drama I couldn’t rewatch Full House. It really has ALL the tropes we see now. Also FL actually had agency (despite the idiot friends track) and was very serious about her career which is strangely missing in modern-day dramas.
I don’t do rewatches, so FH will be a first time watch 😅😅 I lack the skill to do rewatches because I mostly remember the main storyline, although I may forget few scenes.
@emsel Even I’m not able to do full rewatches. I do at times revisit some favorite scenes / fan edits / OST on YT. But with Full House …. I don’t want to take off my rose-tinted glasses and let myself see it now. 🙃
Sung Jae\’s bestie is awesome. SJ didn\’t even asked him to do this (he didn\’t say thanks either), but he still got his back.
He\’s my favorite already.
I loved that sunset scene. But if you are taking gif-requests, my favourite was the end scene where she puts the ring back in the box. We got at least 3 different expressions on his face in less than a second. Suprise, hope, hiding hope, happiness
I was laughing at Hae-In shuffling away, then circling back to put the ring back then going to her room to punch the pillow. With Hyun-Woo yelling in the background that he’s leaving the ring so that Hae-In could continue studying “trends”.
Not Eun-delulu thinking he\’s gonna get the girl solely on trauma and childhood connection. 😂
No one told the bro we don\’t do that anymore? And even if we did, he would need to be the ML.
Hae In looked so confused, she was like \”Wait. He made my family go bankrupt because I gave him a necklace 27394836 years ago?\”
I must admit, I associate the word “tedious” with something a bit less murderous.
But definitely Ugh.
You could say he is the prime example of the NiceGuy™ Syndrome.
I love how after three marriages and three divorces, our auntie thinks it\’s a scandal for a guy to chill in his house and show some… arms? 😂 He\’s literally showing nothing, Beom Ja.
I love every single relationship in this show. These characters are all so precious. 💚 I didn\’t expect the dads\’ bromance to become one of my favorite things of this show, tbh.
And yes, mom and Hae In made cry rivers.
The first half hour of this episode was just constantly crying. The family\’s reaction broke my heart. The dad on the elevator, Soo Cheol\’s talisman, mom… 💔
Finally, we did got to see the Hong men cooking for the family!!
I’m so very pleased that Kim Jung-nan shines so brightly as Beom-ja.
There are indeed many standout side characters from Secretary Na to the two stakeout private investigators checking on Hyun-woo – guess we won’t see these two anymore.
So much crying!
At the beginning I was like “ha! The intro didn’t make me cry this time”, but one second later I was already crying. And then I continued crying for like 40min.
Such an intense episode.

This episode was hilarious! I haven\’t laughed this hard in a while.
Tae Seong and Sol (+OG Sol) are the funniest combo. And Sung Jae\’s scenes are the best when he\’s overthinking/doing a one man show.
I feel like next week episodes are going to make -100 sense, but at least today was fun and adorable. Just the entire episode was gold.
PS. Tae Seong\’s bestie is HILARIOUS. I need more of him and Sung Jae\’s friend.

Hi T. Finally I am free. I laughed a lot during episode 6 but also there were these hints of sadness that were ever-present.
I thought again how good most of the main actors are and how most of the tropes were slightly subverted to good effect:
– The hilarious/mocking scene of the overwrought dialogue Sungjae imagined between Sol and Taesung:
– Sungjae pulling back from being a hormonal jerky teen and instead being a sweet dork.
– Sol’s intensified feelings for Sungjae creating a conflict within herself about her mission and how to reconcile that with her knowledge that she can’t stay in this past with this sweet and dorky 19 year old. In real life 19 year old boys are not so sweet like Sungjae.
I’m wondering if in the OG past, Taesung dropped out of HS because of the trauma associated with Sol’s accident and maybe his feelings for her. The past that she couldn’t remember and still doesn’t remember entirely.
I hope mum survives.
Still cam’t stand the useless brother character and those are wasted scenes.

Yes! alasecond has the theory that Tae Seong got into a fight because kids were picking on Sol after the accident, and that’s why he gets expelled.

Forgot to say that Tae hid his light under a bushel so well as they say given how caring and sweet he could be. Such adorable fictional 19 year olds should also exist in the real world.
I also liked how well Song Geonhee suppressed his sparkling charm because of his scenes needing to demonstrate contrition and the realisation of his feelings for Sol. He is a good actor.
And, last but not least, how charming and funny Sol and Sunjae continue to be despite the underlying drumbeat of sadness and grief.

Tae Seong’s sudden confession while they were breaking up, was everything. “Oh, I guess I did like you” “wait, I think I like you a lot. What”. 😂 Geon Hee is doing great as Tae Seong.
Yes! Sol Sun are adorable, even when their original story/connection is so heartbreaking.
But I just can’t stop smiling when they’re together, and I keep forgetting all the mess that’s waiting for them in the future.

Kim Hyeyoon packs a formidable temper. I pity anyone that might become the justifiable focus of her fury IRL!
And, Byeon Wooseok is just so believable as a 19 year at times despite his real age. Some times the camera just captures the sweetness, confusion, dorkiness and uncertainty of that age so beautifully. It is writ large on his face and that becomes memorable.
I think all three leads will get KD success wings because of their hard work and empathetic collective acting.

KHY has chemistry with all her costars and the BTS for “Extraordinary You” were loads of fun because both the dudes (Lee Jae Wook and Rowoon) kept teasing her and their interactions gave a close buddies vibe, but here BWS and KHY give a comfortable flirty vibe (I don’t know if BWS acted same with his other costars)

He broke up, she didn’t and went to his father, using them. He was being nice with her for the time they spent together. He made a deal to not tell right away for her pride. If he didn’t want to date Hong-Jo openly just after it’s because people would have talked about Hong-Jo behind her back and hurt her.
But a lot of the story was about the fact he was in the deny because of the love potion.

DancingEmma
April 22, 2024 at 2:13 PM
It was a clever amplifying effect but something with Sol’s reaction – undoubtedly more will be revealed – undercut the emotional effect of it for me. The first four eps have upped the ante so I wanted that realisation to land more quietly and contemplatively. I found ep 5 a mixed bag – not enough charming Taesung but unwelcome sinister cabbie, annoying brother, etc.
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 2:41 PM
I don’t think Sol likes Sung Jae yet.
I think she had a few heart fluttering moments, but I think she still has this “idol”/”savior” image of him, more than anything else. She’s really focused on her mission, and knows that she will go back to 2023 soon, so I think that’s why she reacted that way.
I’m okay with that, because she hasn’t really show anything about liking him “that way”, and the confession was more about Sung Jae thinking of himself. I’m happy for him… even if he gets rejected, hahaha.
Oh, the brother and her friend are really… something. I would prefer more scenes of Sung Jae’s bestie and the band than those two.
DancingEmma
April 22, 2024 at 2:51 PM
I agree. I guess it has to be this way from their narrative perspective as the trajectory has to begin, take root, develop further and result in her own growth and reckoning with life, pain, loss and love.
It is unfortunate how boring the brother’s character is. And, sadly, the acting is so underwhelming. The bestie’s character could have been a contender but is underwritten so far.
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 3:05 PM
I feel like the bestie character would’ve been better if her focus was on being Sol’s bestie. The same way we see Sung Jae’s friend be there for him, it would’ve been nice to see more interactions between the girl friends.
We know she has been there for Sol in the good times and the bad times. She seemed to help her a lot in the future (present?), so it would be nice to see them hanging out more in the past.
It would’ve been nice to see all of them (the leads, besties, and Tae Seong) become friends and have a twinkling youth. But they gave her a random love line with the bro, and he’s just so… unnecessary for the story. He feels random than the serial killer, tbh. 😂🤣
DancingEmma
April 22, 2024 at 3:11 PM
You said it. If the bestie cannot be fully fleshed out, at least they should be spending much more time hanging out as besties do. That has been a odd omission.
🌸 Cera (@Seeker) 🌸
April 22, 2024 at 7:05 PM
Brother feels more random than the serial killer!!! Tabong 💃 you are literally the BEST. 😘
As @HopefulRomantic has very astutely pointed out the serial killer may actually have a purpose. Hopefully linked to somehow / anyhow letting Sun-Jae live in the future… because PLOT. I don’t need any explanation or narrative coherence for the serial killer. Just #savesunjae 🙏
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 7:37 PM
@seeker exactly. We know why the killer is here. While the brother… Most of the time I forget he exists.
Except for the show telling us that he’s Sol’s oppa, he seems to have -100 relevance in her life. And zero emotional connection with her.
One strange scene in the show was the fire incident. That guy SAW his dongsaeng getting into a house on fire and he just left her there. He didn’t tell her to get out and he didn’t come back to see if she was okay, or help extinguish the fire, after helping the friend.
And, in general, it’s just weird that all the scenes of HER oppa are of him hanging out with HER best friend. All he has done in the show is scam a high schooler into paying for his teeth and clothes.
DancingEmma
April 22, 2024 at 9:08 PM
Also putting heteronormativity to one side, what an interesting and charming couple Taesung and Sunjae would make. After the tweensie orange jacket tension, Taesung’s comment made me think about that alternate universe possibility.

On a different note, have there been any hints that I might have missed about how long can Sol stay in the past each time? She has one more chance of being able to travel to the past if she gets hurled back to 2023 according to the drama’s lore so far, right?
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 7:58 PM
The first time she stayed for months, and I thinking this time it was the same.
She only has one more chance? I feel like I only pay attention to the cute scenes. 😂🤣
All I know is that she has to come back to 2023 before the accident, and go back to 2009 after the radio incident, otherwise the timeline is going to be erased.

Oh, I definitely wasn’t paying attention when that happened.
I guess she only has one chance left. And that’s why she made the time capsule… The only problem is that she (OG Sol) won’t remember it.
DancingEmma
April 22, 2024 at 8:17 PM
Oh, somehow it went over my head that she stayed for months on the first go. I thought it was only a few weeks.
So, if it is the case for the second trip as well, why is it still summer?
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 8:38 PM
I remember that she mentioned that she stayed for months, then while she was in 2023 OG Sol owned her body for ten days. But she still had time before the accident. At least a month.
I think I’ll go back to that scene and see what’s going on. Maybe I got everything wrong, hahaha.

tabong has two different tears🍉
April 22, 2024 at 10:55 PM
You’re right.
She already had problems with her identity and self worth. And the couple only made it worse.
And having no control over your body is like one of the scariest things that can happen to someone. I can’t imagine what it would be to not only not having control, but to literally watch someone else taking over and just literally stealing your life. All you can do is watch.

April 24, 2024 at 11:43 AM
@enriquequierecagar Regarding Someday or One Day, the Taiwanese original of A Time Called You, and possibly a spoiler if you haven’t seen either:
…
Yes, in the TW show, the “original”/earlier timeline girl’s consciousness was trapped in a scary nowhereland while the “new girl” FL unwittingly took over her body. That part is the same in both shows. It’s clear in both that it’s not something the “new”/later timeline FL did intentionally and that it took a while for her to become aware that she was usurping a body that still had its original identity floating in this weird state of helplessness. As @DncingEmma says, the stuff of nightmares.

I am wondering next time when she leaves for her present time, can she take the brother with her? Her bestie and bro are the worst combo ever. And they are still in touch, so it’s odd they have not showed anything.

Yeah, I was wondering if I missed something at the beginning of the show (in 2023), because I don’t remember them mentioning a relationship between those two.
And if they were nothing in the OG timeline, why would that change in this one? And why should we care?

Uhmmm, wrong show? This drama isn\’t the one about tears so why am I crying?
Sung Jae\’s dad and Sol were so freaking sweet trying to protect our boy, and then he\’s like \”I\’m fine. No regrets. I was happy\”. 🥺 Watching him genuinely happy (and blocking the view of everyone behind him. DUDE YOU\’RE GIANT, GO TO THE BACK), while watching the competition of another swimmer was so heartbreaking… Or heartwarming? I don\’t know if I\’m sad or what.
Sung Jae is such a precious kid. 🥺💚

They really can cry.
I usually only like taking screenshots of pretty scenes and heartwarming moments, but this episode made me want to capture all the heartbreak.
Idk why they always wait to get to Germany to talk things out, fight, and make up, but I really liked how open they were with each other this episode.

I’m amazed at how hectic their Germany schedule would have been. Shooting for the honeymoon, first trip after diagnosis and now second trip for surgery. They would probably have had to shoot for all three at the same time in one location. 🤯 Hat’s off to the cast and crew.
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 21, 2024 at 8:34 PM
Yeah, I feel like they most have spent a lot of time filming there. But it turned out great, and Germany became such a meaningful place for their story. So I guess all the extra effort they had to do (like taking the ToD there too) was worth it.

I\’m not surprised with anything that happened, because we all kinda saw it coming, but I\’m really surprised with the characters reactions to it.
Like three episodes ago, they all run to the hospital after Hae In fainted but now that she\’s having a MEMORY RESET IN ANOTHER CONTINENT, they all just wait at home? Her parents should\’ve been there, waiting for her, with her freaking childhood photo album.
Classy mistress sends a truck of doom to their door, and Hyun Woo doesn\’t call anyone to figure out wtf was that about? He doesn\’t call Grace again or tells Hae In\’s family? For all he knows, they could be next.
#QoT14
🌸 Cera (@Seeker) 🌸
April 21, 2024 at 7:49 PM
And that is why I feel that now I’m being manipulated for squeezing out maximum tears. Its too late to back out now, I’m too invested but Hyun-woo does seem to have had a brain freeze.
My reaction exactly. Why did they go alone to Germany?
tabong has two different tears🍉
April 21, 2024 at 8:26 PM
Idk, it seems like their treating her illness like “their thing”. As if Hae In was going to be cured by Hyun Woo’s love or something.
And they kinda did that since she chose to have the surgery for him, but Idk why her parents couldn’t go there after they heard that she agreed to get surgery.
I can’t believe the first thing she had to see after waking up was Eun-bullshit.

My heart feels so warm. 🥺💚
50% of the episode is just Hae In being the cutest person in the world.
And the other 50% is relationships goals.
All type of relationships goals.
The dads\’ bromance is my favorite, but that scene Beom Ja had with her future hubby was the sweetest and most heartbreaking moment of the episode for me.
We also had Hae In and her mom bonding a little more. 💚 Soo Cheol thinking of what he needs to do to protect his family. 💚
I just love this show.
PS. The parents being so done with Hyun Woo\’s hyung and noona is so relatable. \”Don\’t go around saying you\’re my kid\” LMAO

Okay, so I\’m rewatching W, again, and…
1. If there\’s a top 10 FLs you would take with you to a time travel trip, desert island, or getting stock in a webtoon situation, Yeon Woo is up there in the top 10.
This woman adapts FAST.
2. This show is just fun. So much fun. It doesn\’t matter that I know everything they\’re going to say, and everything that\’s going to happen. I still enjoy it a lot.
And it\’s fun noticing the little details that let you know what legendary scene is coming next!
3. The facial expressions in this show are everything. They are killing me!!
I love how Kang Cheol 1.0 used to go from cutie to gangsta to chill to flirt to gangsta again to classy to cutie again.
And I love how Yeon Woo used to be just a walking chaos. The most unpredictable girl ever. She would always look confused and scared and then she would do/say something totally random and she would go back to acting confused again. 😂
4. And of course not only the characters as individuals are a ride, the insane dynamic those two have is the real thing!
Only Yeon Woo and Kang Cheol can go from slapping to kissing to showing underwear to kissing again to shooting each other to \”I love you. No I don\’t\” to \”are you married?\” \”no\” \”good to know 😉\”
5. I\’m trying to figure out who\’s the real victim here.
Kang Cheol for being the ML of a drama about catching a killer when there\’s no killer, so he lost his family and 15 years of his life for nothing? Or the dad that just wanted to give up on everything and drink but suddenly his fictional character came to life and made him go insane? Or is it Yeon Woo that had to stop her on life to fill the plot holes in her dad\’s work and help her fictional-but-real boyfriend get closure?
6. I love Yeon Woo\’s boss/professor so much! He hates the sudden romantic plot in W (action/thriller webtoon), the same way we hate serial killers in our romcoms. He\’s practically us. 😂
And from his perspective, Yeon Woo is the annoying SL. I know how he feels. He\’s me.
I love this show so much. 🥺💚

Congratulations! 👏 👏 👏 That is a skill I wish I had. Despite my soft spot for the drama I couldn’t rewatch Full House. It really has ALL the tropes we see now.
