CNG has this obsession with him, that it is starting to feel dangerous, that she will be the last hurdle for him to be clear all this. Either she is helping him or trapping him to leave the town and go to Seoul with her. What if she knew all along that he was innocent, but since she was in love with him, she saw Daeun murder but kept her silence and now she is visiting doctor and all, as in EP she was no longer this innocent, she had this slimy smile on her face that tells something otherwise.
ps. The whole village is just disgusting, they knew all along who murdered the girls, and kept their silence, and frame an innocent person , destroyed his parents, and now one of the murderer's father owns his parents business, given to them as compensation for their son's crime???? What world we line in??? This is rotten to the core, Idk how much is exaggeration or how much is true, but such depiction of Korean society (of course there are other societies) in one drama after the other is just disgusting.
Just to be clear what the director said for the record:
"of course we are gonna have some kisses scenes, but there is even more kiss scenes and s*x in season 2, so you are gonna have to ask production for season 2, season 2, we all want season 2"
He means that the remaining material in the book contains more intimate scenes, but they were not included in this production. As for season 2, he is urging the producers to make it happen so the remaining content can be adapted. However, do not spread rumors that a second season is confirmed. He is simply saying that more intimate scenes could be included if there were a season 2.
But as always, the Japanese mother totally ignored what Kohei was going through in that scene and made stupid…
I don’t know about your environment, but in our Asian culture, there exists an unspoken language between many relationships. Silence and subtle gestures often convey what words do not. Our tears are our words. You might call it wrong or wish it were different, but this is how we are. Unlike in the West, where openness is valued, we don’t always express everything out loud. Our suffering is private—whether that’s right or wrong is beside the point. This was not what the moment in question was about.
His mother may not understand the deeper reasons behind his sorrow, but she is already overwhelmed with helplessness, knowing that his hearing is worsening and she can do nothing to stop it. Even if she sensed his unrequited love, she wouldn’t bring it up. She respects his choice to remain silent, understanding that if he wished to speak, he would. In her own quiet way, she chose to console him—not with words, but by sharing his tears. In that moment, her silence was not a failure; it was an act of love. There is nothing wrong or negative about that.
Another gem of an episode...The scene where Kohei was cutting onion was actually a heartache and not Sulphur that formed his tears. And then without a word just sound of cutting...his mother understood his pain and started crying as well..was one of the best scene...
A mother knows her child...and when she is unable to give them what they want, she can only cry with them...What a magnificent scene..I sobbed with them.
Sometimes slow burn tales are the best. this is not a sex drive story...It is about their struggle and finding their true path amidst comes love type story. People just can't be patient on that.
OMG the sudden surge of emotions and electrifying chemistry in EP 5 is a treat to watch. When they are in one scene together, feels like no one else exist. JT without words speaks volumes of his affection for SW.
SW sudden flush of water in eyes makes him a puppy, although he sheds no tear, but always when JT looks at SW, his eyes filled with water, I have noticed this often, that he is always on a verge of cry, as if JT is a reason of tears whether joy or sad. SW is someone who needs attention, and when JT cares for him, he becomes teary, love that. Just love that.
JT comforting SW feel likes he fell for SW so hard that he can't even hide his fear, joy and patience, the natural pull towards SW is just a habit of JT. JT giving SW piggy back, because SW wanted it (faked it) is a damn cute thing...and they don't even care now that they are with their parents.
I love it! People can be so stereotypical. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but opinions should be reasonable and not just blatant attacks on something simply because you can't accept it.
As I mentioned before, all other versions of "AH" and the original were substandard in production. Since it is a BL series from China, it had to be censored. Even with the censorship, there were numerous technical errors, and the production quality wasn't impressive at all—just average. The original production and camera work were not up to par. We liked it (including myself) because when something becomes a mystery, it piques our interest. The incomplete status of the original and the remake left fans on a cliffhanger, which made us feel they were good. But if you look at it rationally, it was ordinary.
As for this one, I like it all, just as I love the original ones. Episode 4 was really good. It showed significant progress in the story, and it was well-balanced—not rushed, with no cheesy dialogue, no cringe-worthy moments, and nothing bad so far. It's an ordinary series with a really good cast, and the two leads, Mac and August, are doing a perfect job.
So before you criticize this one, just think—are you doing this out of personal dislike rather than evaluating the series itself?
Against SH behavior. what does he expect from her??? he is harsh to her, because he thinks she acts clueless...to his feelings... and not over her ex??? that is the problem with childhood friends, one knows and the other don't, and FL has done nothing wrong to SH, no one is virgin, he enjoyed after his heartbreak and she pursued her love...and now they have chance, I have no idea why SH is walking on her the way he wants just because she doesn't respond to his feelings or oblivious to him liking her. His love should be happy and nice, if he really ants to win, he needs to act better. Be jealous but with creative way to win her heart or to make her realize, but not anger outburst, it almost feel abuse, seriously puts me off.
JHI transition from cute puppy to tsuandre ML is a treat to watch, but when it is due. She has done nothing wrong to have this treatment. Not a single excuse of argument on this. All have unrequited or one sided love, but that doesn't mean you treat them bad, just because you failed to convey your feelings, when you had many chances.
With all the wrong choices the son keeps making, he will end up de*d. The Judge will have harder time cleaning…
he will die, that was original story. not sure if they will kill him or not. but both ML son dies and Judge serve his time and then finish the mobster.
SMA diverse ability to play play all of kind of roles is really commendable. i feel like ML is a step brother of SML. Given how his mother had him and his mother story isn't revealed, but it is high possibility.
Jung Hae In's micro-expressions are so good compared to other actors in roco's.
he is a king of expressions, he can't fake it, you will feel like he is actually real but he is not. His performance in SITR and ONS is a testament of his acting skills.
I have said this after watching first 4 ep back in March, that this drama has the worst female cast in entire Korean drama history. The mothers, grandmother, aunt, step mother, including FL is of worst character.
Literally you should only watch first 12 ep and then come back to watch from 41 ep, and it is exactly where you left, nothing changes same story as if it has just started.
I feel sorry of ISH that she has one of the worst casting in drama one after the other. My Ganghnam Beauty was famous because of CEW, sorry but that is true. All of her series are just gutter.
