Beanie level: Errand boy

I am not sure about you, but I am pretty sure they still love each other, and the existence of Youngwoo is the proof.

Does my prediction a bit too accurate, after watch Ep. 5 of Extraordinary Attorney Woo?

This time, her lesson is a bit too harsh for her, but very necessary.

    A bit more about Chang Nam-won (with help of Google Translate) …

    He started his underwater photography since 1979, the first one who use wide-angle lens to shoot whales. At the same time, he was a news photographer for JoongAng Ilbo, went to places like Somalia, Rwanda and Iraq, also reported one of the earliest meetings of two Koreas leaders in Pyongyang.

    The photo, according to the following report, probably shot in the 1980’s in Tonga.

I am pretty sure they can’t get into the nightclub because of Mijo’s classic look.
(Pun intended: Son Yejin had her breakout role in the 2003 movie The Classic)

      For anyone in this world, it may not. But in Mijo’s situation, who is facing a very good friend refuses to get chemo to lengthen her life and facing certain death, I guess you will …

      By the way, they successfully go to a nightclub first time in their lives after all these words.

      I still can watch some descriptive videos (including a very brilliant one dissecting the Existentialism* in the drama) …

      *Woong read 2 books, in Episode 1, The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera, and in Episode 7, Thus Spoke Zarathustra: A Book for All and None by Friedrich Nietzsche, both talk about the concept of Eternal return, which he even describes to Yeonsu. One of the results is when Yeonsu realizes that her life’s meaning is in fact defined by no one but herself: “The only person who made my life seem pathetic was me” …

The title of this final episode is the title of the whole drama.

    Just saying something before the finale …

    With this scene, I am pretty sure Yeonsu and Woong will go happy ending. Finally Yeonsu opens up her pain in heart with Woong, so I am pretty sure Woong can work things out to avoid the breakup 5 years ago. Woong’s “unfortune” (harsh criticism from a “famous critic” as well the copycat Nuah) may makes him a bit unhappy (“We are all so pity,” he said before Jiwoong), and Yeonsu’s current states may not help him back; however since he has the ability to help others before comforting himself, that will only act as a small hitch, even something that enlighten himself. So I am pretty sure if Yeonsu can go through her current hard time, she will go to France with Woong, and live her own life with Woong happily ever after.

    What I am not so sure will be Jiwoong, her sadness is way too deep, I wonder if he can go through, but let’s see. NJ will be okay, too, although I doubt she will have someone beside her romantically (She reach out to be friend with Woong seems already a great happy ending for me, so please don’t give her a boyfriend, thank you very much). Eunho and Solyi will probably get together (wish their restaurant will get good business). Someone say Woong’s true father may appear in the end, but honestly I don’t care (and Woong doesn’t need him to live a happy life) …

    So, happy finale, everyone!!

      A special shoutout to NJ, as well the actress behind her, Roh Jeong-eui. Her character may have been the farthest away from our reality, but for those follow some top female artists in South Korea (like, for me, IU), NJ is pretty close to them, except more lonely.

      Good job.

Parents can be a gift for your life; they may also become so inseparable, stopping you from moving on.
I really hop Yeonsu can learn from this kid.

    Simply looking at the Netflix playlist, seeing which movie the drama is paying tribute to, I can tell I can’t hold my tear.

    I hold that for less then 5 minutes.

Our Beloved Summer Episode 13’s title is pretty obvious … Chae-ran even mentions this scene.

    As of Episode 13, Woong and Yeonsu’s grandma’s scene isn’t played out. I wonder what he has heard, so motivated that he has to ask Yeonsu that question in the end, the question why she dump him all those years ago …

    But honestly, he still has fear on that night … and to face it head on is way better than put it under the rug.

      Grandma always thought Yeonsu was the one had been abandoned so she probably told Ung how much she suffered, and then he obviously has to ask himself, if she was suffering and he was suffering, why did they break up? Specially when only a couple of days before they had done that trip to the seaside.

        After watching Episode 14, I guess as audience we all know why Yeonsu dump Woong at the time. I guess Grandma at least feels it somehow, so as Woong (although he is “so stupid”–in his own words–that he need Yeonsu telling him to confirm).

        I guess that’s why it hurt Woong so much because he only heard the latter half of Yeonsu’s explanation. It made him think he was so unreliable.

    After calming down, I would say, the final 20 minutes really break my heart. Originally I really hate those lost parents, finding real father (hope it’s not NJ’s) cliché (especially after some disaster called Her Private Life). I can’t hate this one, though.

      I had guessed it based on his mom’s dialogue and the nightmare last week, but it still broke my heart. It really puts a different perspective on so many things.

Our Beloved Summer Episode 11 is paying tribute to this French film of 1989 by Andrzej Żuławski featuring a couple with terminal illness/terrible family situation. They commit suicide in the end.
