A push back onto track.

I felt a little disconnected from the last two episodes. Like the show still has my interest, but I felt like the episodes before then were much more compelling. This episode piqued my interest right back up to how it was at the start of the show! The last 30 minutes had me on the edge of my romance seat and the preview for the next episode left me dying for more.

Ahh it feels so wrong to see her in sneakers…

Ahh it feels so wrong to see her in sneakers honestly lol. Even the slippers she wears at home have a kitten heel. Haha Gang Tae really is her tamer -- he can play her like a fiddle and knows exactly what to say and do to get her to do what he wants. Though I guess she's kind of the same. In that case, I'm wrong about both of them since both of them manage to manipulate the other to get what they want at times haha. Oof this was a conflict that had to come up at some point, but it's still difficult to watch. Best to get it all out in the open though.

contains spoiler

We all have the feeling which Gang had isn’t it? We do something out of impulse and we think, why on earth did we do that! Oh man, Ko is hilarious. She is slowly growing on me and the friend’s theory about virus haha.. How did he even come up with that!! When Sang says “Don’t be delusional and drink your soup!” We all need such friends in life to wake us up sometime. And Gang’s friend saying he will do whatever he asks because that is what loyalty is. #truefriendship.Oh dEEr :D :D :D ArtD trying to set Juri up with CEO is soooooo cute. Who is the mother? Head nurse?? It is nice to finally see how Ko and Gang are trying to make them both get out of their comfort zone and heal each other. The place they went to looks soooooo beautiful. It was nice to see a layer of her where she feels scared but in a funny way. What Ko said is true. We can’t keep carrying burden of secret, we need s safe space to vent, to be seen and heard and validated and accepted without judgement. The story of king with donkey ears! Dinner scene was funny but awkward. Feels like weird family gathering when you are with relatives you don’t want to. CEO is really sweet and nice. AH the expressions on Gang’s face when he was talking to his brother and I guess it is the first time ever to leave him alone. It is like how parents feel when they leave their kids for first time and how kid feels. I did not see that KISS coming! DangggggI love how they keep showing their younger self in the story. It is like they are healing their childhood trauma. Like how Gang remembered the “wrong” memory about his mother, Sang also remembers the memory differently. He was the one who left the younger brother in water but from what he had heard earlier about death, he remembered it differently. I hope he can remember the correct memory correct!

The ending was amazing and heartbreaking

Contains spoilers!!!This episode started light and I was screaming and punching my pillow when they almost kissed. Haha. And then just when I've given up on the idea for this episode, they did! I'm not lying when I say that I actually teared up when Kang Tae gave Moon Young flowers and said she was pretty. That was such a sweet moment and although I personally wanted an intense kissing scene from them, that sweet peck on the lips was just right for the moment. But the ending was really something. This drama never disappoints me. The acting was really amazing in that scene and it broke my heart into a million pieces. I cried a river. Seriously. :((
