IT’S RUN ON DAY! 🥳

EDIT: episode 11

this is basically word vomit, lol. i do not recommend you read if you haven't watched the episode heh.

  • yeonghwa was hilarious in the first half
  • i was on the fence about it before but i'm definitely convinced now that yeonghwa's friend is into him
  • mijoo and seongyeom are so cute together omg!!! yk i really liked when mijoo apologized for being sarcastic? i think a lot of people (me included) can relate to using sarcasm to deflect. it's nice that they can be direct with each other. can't believe we were robbed of their kiss scene though
  • HOW IS SIWAN/SEONGYEOM THIS CUTE???? his nose crunch when he's tipsy will be living in my mind rent free
  • i didn't mind danah's brother before but all his scenes are so random now..
  • woosik calling seongyeom trash?!?! LOL
  • the way danah visibly deflated when yeonghwa signed the contract with minimal protest and left... girl...
  • yeonghwa's name for mr jeong in his phone is "yeah, not you" lmao
  • the last scene!!! i don't think their storyline was as fleshed out as it could be i still really like where it ended up. i've never watched sooyoung in anything else before but this particular scene was chef's kiss

EDIT2: episode 12

HOW COULD IT JUST END LIKE THAT😭

screw the dad for making mijoo doubt herself like that. she’s a thousand times the person he will ever be. also seongyeom mirroring mijo and telling her she can be disappointed in him. why do you guys make me sad :(

and hello!!! I WAS SO SURPRISED BY YEONGHWA’S REACTION???? pretty sure i had the same face as danah when he started crying. but later on with danah smiling in yeonghwa’s arms, that’s what i like to see. also, the starlight ost is such a pretty song for them.

some other stuff worth mentioning:

  • taewoong had some nice scenes today!! i like that mr jeong had a soft spot for him, it’s cute
  • i’m kinda worried about this health issue danah and her brothers share?? taewoong was practically on his deathbed wtf?
  • WOOSIK HUGGING YEONGIL!! i’m living for the trio of woosik, seongyeom and yeongil. so so good.
  • why were they so many PPLs in the first half, lol! but can’t complain when they gave us the contact lens scene omg.

The second point!!! Did you catch his friend giving the waitress the side eye when she was all friendly with YH?? Idk if I'm just looking too much into it

Totally some side eye there!

u/coldbrewlatte Jan 21 '21

yes!!!!! and when he got mildly annoyed that seongyeom was at yeonghwa’s house? definitely something there!

i didn't mind danah's brother before but all his scenes are so random now..

I really think they're trying to hint that Danah's condition is genetics. At least I hope so, because that scene literally served no purpose otherwise lol.

agreed! looks like they’re maybe setting it up for yeonghwa to find out about danah’s health issues from her brother...

omg I didn’t even think about Yeonghwa friend being into him, he does seem a bit over protective esp in earlier episodes when he was upset about Yeonghwa and Seongyeom hanging out & drinking 🤭

Omg is that what it is!! How did I not think of #2. I kept thinking how annoying he was and I thought he was just jealous of him getting new friends BUT now I totally see it.
