I’m purposely not starting this show until the day before the finale because there’s no way I could handle the weekly wait. My anxiety would be through the roof wondering what happens next. That said, I’ve been seeing clips all over my socials, and every time I try to scroll past them, I end up watching anyway. Ongsa and Inn have me completely hooked, they’re ridiculously attractive, and their chemistry looks incredible. Even the clips are spiking my anxiety. I’ve also seen people saying they might not get a happy ending because of everything that’s happened so far. They can’t put these characters through all of that only for everyone trying to keep them apart to win in the end. After everything these two have been through, I’m hoping they give them the happy ending they deserve. Sending hugs to everyone because of the events that unfolded in ep 7.

Was this show cringe at times? Absolutely. Was it still a fun watch? Also yes.

This is the kind of series you watch purely for fun without taking it seriously. It felt very nostalgic and reminded me of the early days of Thai BLs, which made it even more enjoyable.

Because the ending is so ambiguous and left open to interpretation, viewers can draw their own conclusions. Personally, I believe he is still alive but remains trapped there until he is eventually claimed. While it's true that he never made a wish or placed a stone, I think simply coming into contact with the water may have been enough to bind him to that place. Its somewhat hinted at when you see how Su In was trying to avoid the water. Because the couple in the beginning also did not make a wish or placed a stone but they experienced the same hallucinations and when they entered the water, they were claimed.
Since the grandmother is trapped there, I feel that he may now share the same fate. It would be an interesting twist if he is destined to remain there indefinitely, ultimately taking the grandmother’s place as the next prisoner of the location.

When Soo-in destroys the tower in the end, I don’t think that ever happened. I don’t think she made it out the water and it was her spirit that wanted to. She may have figured out the solution but was too late. I think if the tower had stayed destroyed instead of being rebuilt at the beginning, the events would’ve never occurred, but they played into the hand of the ghost by listening to the grandmother. Since the group rebuilds the tower it may have restored a connection to whatever supernatural force that exists there. The reason why I think this is because Su In’s boss mentioned that he helped build the tower before. When the grandmother insisted on the group making a wish before rebuilding the tower, I think it was just to persuade them (make a wish you may get something) since they agree after I think it may have connected them to the ghost, ultimately making them the new targets and binding them to the reservoir.I also do not believe the grandmother is truly alive. Instead, she feels more like a lingering presence tied to the reservoir, someone trapped between reality and the supernatural. Like Ki-tae at the end. Being stuck there she may be warning outsiders, but in a very subtle and almost manipulative way. At the same time, I do think she also helps assist the ghost. Since the film blurs the line between reality and hallucination, it makes you wonder if shes even real.As for the ghost itself, I do not think it is actually the grandmother’s daughter but her daughter may have been a victim of the ghost, and what we see is another lingering ghost that’s at her house when Ki-tae was there.

Theory:
Personally, I do not believe anyone truly escaped Salmokji. My interpretation is that whoever survived became trapped within the reservoir’s supernatural cycle, endlessly believing they escaped only to “wake up” and realize they are still there. The hallucinations continue until the ghost ultimately claims them. The ending gives the impression of an endless loop, a cycle of false hope and psychological torment.

after doing some research I was surprised to find out this is based on a true urban legend in South Korea by Yesan County. I have a theory on the ending, it’s the only thing that makes sense to me

check out my review, my Theory is included there and below

I really enjoyed this show and thought it blended its themes together very well. Perth and Santa did an amazing job.

This needs a second season. That being said most got what they deserved and some irritated me.

This show is pure fun and chaos from start to finish. The printer ad in the last episode was absolutely hilarious. Loved every minute of it!

You're welcome

Apologies, I’m still trying to figure out how the quiz things works, but I think I fixed it. Can you check and see if it allows you to retake the quiz.

I’m working on a BL quiz that will feature China, Thailand, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines

That’s great! I’m glad you liked it, nice to see someone with similar taste.

The book are people he wanted to make amends with and ask for forgiveness, hence the last page being for Cha U Sol, and the reason why he visits him in the end.

He becomes a target for Hyun U Yeong after injuring the Awl. After that they started looking into his past.
