I'm not sure of that, but thank to someone to confirm: I saw a comment on X, someone who could check shots on smartphone dates and: It seems the whole EunHo depression situation in episode 8 was during a whole month.
I hate myself how can I wait not only hot ep 9 but for 4 episodes!?!?! how??!
It's so late, the only outcome of this drama is probably the heroine's suicide. Many of the audience will be happy: she doesn't end with one of the guys. 😅
If Eun Ho ended up with Ju Yeon that would make 0 sense since the story has never been about them + main trailer…
It's something I didn't like about episode 8. I feel like the writer had a schedule about episode content. And of course should have. But couldn't make it the best.
When I think about logic, consequences. How is it possible that Ju-Yeon didn't learn how Eun-Ho spirals? He should be curious about her. And more, her failure on TV news became something big, anyone know in the media. But for facility, the writer put that under the carpet. Like if people at Media L aren't curious to what happen to their concurrent. And anyway, Ju-Yeon should be curious about EunHo, even if he doesn't like her and like only Hyeri.
You see what I mean? The writer needed EunHo to be alone during few days, to do the depression/falldown arc, with nothing to interfere with, could be Ju-Yeon or HyeonO.
It is so frustrating that she is still hang up on her ex. It's been 4 years already and it's not like they broke…
Anything in any drama is frustrating. It's because the writer cause frustration that you are mad at watching what comes next, supposed to dissipate your frustration. Just, some writers add more frustration until the end. Some are even able to give you a good drama, but leaving you frustrated after the end. loooooooooooooooooooool!
I'm on the start of ep2, but why on earth have they made her so silly, it's uncomfortable to watch lol she lost…
It's normal. Trust the writer. Continue watching and think. (yeah this drama is a bit painful and requires the audience to think more than usual, lol!)
Yooo, just watched ep8.What is the meaning of Hyeon-Oh's last scene?He came to Eun-Ho's place, stoped then staring…
No, it's just he comes too late. Hyeri bike is gone, because.... ahah, obviously... Hyeri took it and is gone with. Later we see EunHo is gone, not at her job, not at home. We just see the diary where it's said "now I take life in hand" by Hyeri.
I'm curious to know if Hyeri will go to EunHo job?!
Ah yeah, it's true we have the feeling she quit. But nothing about a letter of resignation. Then, she will have problem to pay for her life. Hyeri job makes no money! 🤨
The main grandmother has cancer. HyeonO, Ji-On and the sister want to take Grandma to hospital. She doesn't want to, instead she wants HyeonO to get married.
05:00 - A girl called ‘Cho Rong’ has offered to marry HyeonO. I don't remember her. The dialogue does a bit of exposition to tell us who she is. She's been working for the grandmas for 7 years. Her older sister used to look after the grandmas. LOL, that's expo by the ladleful! The main point: she's ready to take care of the grandmas. She just wants to be part of the family. Arranged marriage. He's not giving his answer now, but...
09:30 - Media hall, day. Probably the Ep7 cliffhanger. He seems to have said ‘yes’, given the reaction of a colleague. So EunHo hears the news. Endless eye contact. Poor EunHo, it's completely incomprehensible to her. - He doesn't want to marry her for 8 years. - Suddenly he's marrying a stranger a few days after she rejects him.
11:20 - EunHo walks out into the hall. Can't believe it. This won't help her mental disorder. Ayaaa.
12:00 - Midday news. Her mind is absent. The sound of the other presenters fades to give the idea of her mental isolation. AND... it's malpractice!!!
13:39 - Scolding in the boss's office (Chin Guk) She doesn't care, she's totally disconnected from reality.
14:34 - At her desk. She remains absent-minded. 14:55 - A subjective shot of the director. Her back, with a blur around it and a strange sound. It reminds me of Frodo when he puts the ring on his finger in The Lord of the Rings. lol Shin's advice: try to humiliate yourself as much as possible. Ahahaha... anything to crush her. 15:50, she types an apology letter. I'm curious about the content...
16:05 - Media people are watching the show. She's become famous for her mistake. She walks through the room like a zombie. ‘It's impossible’. Comedy effect. She recites her letter of apology in voice-over. Which makes a good segue into...
16:55 - In front of the media, daytime. Rainy but sunny. She asks HyeonO for an explanation. He's ready to explain but she's too angry. Good scene. Acting feast. AGAIN!! She leaves without him being able to speak. AAgghhrargharhg. The writer breaks our nerves. Voice-over apology continues. ‘It's just me he didn't want to marry’.
20:10 - Flashback with colleague. Wondering why he broke up with her. ‘Dear viewers, this is how I became a fool’.
21:10 - Title: Dear viewers. ‘I hate myself’
21:25 - Car park, Day. Ju-Yeon arrives. Hyeri absent. He remembers, coffee scene.
22:26 - At his desk. He too is absent-minded. He invites HyeHyeon to eat some Udon. She can't believe it.
25:07 - Restaurant, night. Ju-Yeon+HyeHyeon, eating udon. He regains his confidence and thinks that Hyeri will come back. He is ready to be nice to EunHo. So she let Hyeri be. He states "I've only one heart to give" (to only one)
27:35 - EunHo in the metro. Day. Flashback EUnHo+HyeonO, day. Back to the metro. Flashback next, night. He has lost his pendant and is looking for it in a courtyard. He cries because he can't find it. Surprising. Back to the metro. Flashback continues. 33:50, back on the metro. Close-up on EunHo's absent eyes. Another flashback, at home. 35:20, back on the metro. Will she miss her station? Her smartphone rings, she doesn't notice.
35:40 - Office, day. EunHo types another apology letter. Because she was late. LOL, she did miss her station.
36:42 - Scolding in the boss's office. Ayaaa. The episode does everything it can to destroy her. He wants her to resign from everything. Plus, heavily insults her ‘you're ugly’. ‘Why did HyeonO quit 9pm for a loser like you?’
37:35 - In front of EunHo's residence, night. HyeonO is waiting in his car. He opens the compartment with the pendant. Would be willing to take it out? And take a step towards EunHo? He closes it again. No more details as the next scene takes place in the grandmother's house.
38:40 - He tells the grandmother that he doesn't want to get married. But she says not to worry, that she sees him as a member of the family now, rather than a guy with the chore of looking after her. Could this change his mind about EunHo? It's a pity she didn't tell him sooner.
40:45 - Ju-Yeon arrives. Hyeri still absent. HyeHyeon shamelessly admits that she sleeps with one of her colleagues from time to time (the guy at the hotel). Hardly believable to do that in workplace, and bad point for her, as she put a co-worker in embarassement. This point leads so she can say "we can have a place in heart for someone else". That's also quite crap, as it's mostly sex-affairs she's talking about BUT: The point is used for Ju-Yeon. So the meaning I give to it is: maybe he could consider to meet EunHo too, not just Hyeri.
42:28 - HyeonO+EunHo on TV set. Then she is fired from all the shows.
45:00 - Relaxation room. Eun-Ho+Ji-On.
47:50 - Eun-Ho at home. Reads Hyeri's letters. And the letters she sends to Hyeri. Then she writes ‘I hate myself’. Then writes something else, we don't see.
51:30 - Car park, daytime. Ju-Yeon arrives. Hyeri is not there.
53:30 - Break-up staircase, night. HyeonO remembers the break-up. 54:41, shot of the director, using a similar technique to the shot of the sun in the forest. Here, a street lamp splits its light into two rainbows. HyeonO is halfway up the stairs.
54:50 - He goes to EunHo's house. A shot of Hyeri's bike. ... which disappears in a blur.
56:05 - At EunHo's work. A parcel for her, but she's away...
57:26 - Hyeri/Eunho's diary on the desk. The wind is turning the pages backwards. Actually no, it's turning the pages forwards. The last thing she wrote: Actually it's from Hyeri. But it might be the end of the previous scene, after writing ‘I hate myself’. Hyeri writes: ‘you've failed to be happy, I'm taking over’.
The episode is rather disappointing. Angst, people thinking while looking sadly in the void, not a lot happens. The destruction of EunHo's morale is well handled, but there's a lot of slowness around it. Ju-Yeon doesn't put into practice what he says, meeting EunHo. HyeonO had the opportunity to finish his explanation in another scene, but it doesn't happen. This keeps us waiting for the cliffhanger. Presaging Hyeri return. Just a thing, I know it's a bit down to earth, but: If EunHo is fired from her job, I don't see how her and Hyeri will continue.
I saw a comment on X, someone who could check shots on smartphone dates and:

She will still have the newest samsung smartphone.
Since, I'm enjoying a lot the drama. Not an easy one.
Hyeri bike is gone, because.... ahah, obviously... Hyeri took it and is gone with.

Just a thing, I know it's a bit down to earth, but:
If EunHo is fired from her job, I don't see how her and Hyeri will continue.
The korean commenter makes sens too. I could see the yellow door as last shot of café scene. Right on point for Ju-Hyeon seeing her as Hiery.
He has to organise an escape plan. 😄
By the way, he doubts at first, but not that long.
