A lot of people are annoyed with Ran-joo and think she’s being mean to Mok-ha. Am I the only one who thinks that she is purposely pushing Mok-ha away in order for Mok-ha not to use her as an excuse to give up on her dreams? Personally, I never like when characters do that (make the other person hate them intentionally so they can leave them and go chase their dream) but I think her heart is in the right place and is actually being really selfless here and is trying to help Mok-ha by ‘setting her free’. More-so, I don’t think it will be long before Mok-ha figures out that that’s what she is doing and will come up with a solution for both of them to succeed.

At this stage it’s not even about who’s your bias or who you are rooting for. It is what it is and what it is is that Bo-goel is ki-ho.

I will. 🙂

I often feel that way about revenge dramas too but this one feels like I’ve watched this EXACT series before.

I saw further down that it’s based off a manhwa but I don’t read manhwas or mangas. I really have a vivid memory of watching a kdrama series very similar to this one.

Thank you for answering all the same.

I’m noticing a lot of shade being thrown at the drama and characters by people who didn’t have things go the way they wanted. They can’t say outright why they are mad so they nitpick at other things to try and make their negativity seem legitimate.

The consensus is that whatever they are doing is working with the audience.

I also find it familiar. Like deja vu familiar but I don’t read manhwa’s so I’m here racking my brain trying to figure out where I’ve watched it before. It’s driving me nuts.

I think this is what happened too. This might be a case of if they create the correct outcome they get to continue living past the date on their arms.

I had the same thought going in and started watching from the back end of episode one with the intention of skipping through the rest of the episodes just to see the conclusion but my my did it grab me. Not one second skipped. I even went back and watched the rest of episode 1 for more context. Can’t wait for the remaining episodes.

Can someone help me with this because I feel like I’m going nuts. I have this HUGE feeling of deja vu that I’ve seen this series before. Is this a remake of an earlier series or is there a series that is very similar in storyline to this one? Please help, it’s freaking me out.

If I understood that scene correctly it’s because he sees that she’s doing these things, like meeting up with his brother and worrying about his mental well-being while simultaneously saying she wants to keep a boundary is contradicting. It’s basically him telling her not to act like she cares about him if she is gonna draw boundaries because it’s sending mixed messages.

This is an infinitely better family drama series than The Real Has Come. If you’ve got both on your ‘to watch list’; watch this instead. It’s much better executed and of a higher calibre.

And then they hammered it home in episode 7. Like a lot. 😅

I personally found that story of the egg so heartbreaking. You could tell how guilty she felt about it and also lying to Ran-joo.

It really is some of the best screenwriting of 2023 and of most k-dramas in general. 👍

I don’t think that’s why he was urging him to keep the secret. I think it’s because he understood the gravity of the situation just like Bo-goel had all these years. The difference now is that Bo-goel has been doing it for so long he has grown tired of hiding. I don’t think either of them are acting selfishly atm. I think they are both doing their best to handle a dangerous and complicated situation.

I’m not crying. You are. 🥹

This one has got my brain in a twizzler because Bo-goel has pretty much confirmed that he IS younger than Woo-hak. The show-runners have also confirmed this with the family portrait but it still leaves me with so many questions. Did Ki-ho skip a grade? Is that why he ended up in the same class as Mok-ha? This would be very plausible as we know he was a very smart student. It would also explain why their ages are the way they are as adults.

If however, they purposefully changed their ages to match their new identities but the age of Woo-hak in this new identity so happens to match up perfectly with Mok-ha just so that the writer’s can confuse the audience as to the real Ki-ho; I’d be a little disappointed as I tend to dislike details that only serve the plot but not necessarily the narrative.

Here’s what we know so far:

The incident we see in flashback in episode 6 that landed Woo-hak in the hospital and caused his memory loss was before the events on the island with Ki-ho and Mok-ha. It seems Ki-ho and his family lived in their family home in Seoul before Ki-ho and the dad ended up on the island.

We don’t know for sure how they ended up on the island but we suspect it has something to do with the dad causing the injury that made Woo-hak wind up in the hospital. We don’t know if the mum ran away with Woo-hak or if the dad ran away with Ki-ho. Judging from how long Woo-hak was in the hospital, I don’t think the mum ran away/hid from the dad until later (but I could be wrong).

People have theorised that maybe the father ran away with/forced Ki-ho to move to the island with him because the father thought he had k*lled Woo-hak. I think this is a good theory.

So in a nutshell, some things have been answered and some things have not (yet). 🙂
