But is this after they are cleared from cancer. Or is it once they are diagnosed with cancer?

Yes fingers crossed. That is very understandable to take a break before coming back.
The angst can get too much.

Haein said it will be a party from 11th episode to episode 16. I am going to take his word for it that it means it's a happy ending. I think episode 9 and 10 will be dealing with the issue of FL not telling ML and family she was sick. I don't think she will be sick again but they might be alot of tears those episodes (9&10)
I wish they didn't take this route and I wish they didn't end episode 8 where they ended it. Waiting for episode 9 will be more torturous.

When did anyone say you can't have your opinion. Someone replying a different opinion, doesn't mean they are saying you can't have your opinion, that's just simply a discussion. That is what a comment section is, people discussing with different opinions.

I am really confused about your comment. I don't know why you are getting annoyed about everything.
Also you don't know me, nor do you know when I watch the episodes. It's been 8 hours since airing. And even if I did watch the episodes as soon as it aired, it's my choice and you don't need to get irritated about that. It's just a show, it ain't that serious.

Their friendship spans 29 years.That is a long time and so it is very possible for her to have liked ML way earlier on. So them having ex's doesn't deter from her claim of liking him first.
They liked each other but life happened and they dated other people but now they are coming back to their original feelings for each other.

He confessed!!!

So glad that he finally took the step.
There won't be always a perfect time, and he couldn't bare to miss another chance again, so he had to be brave.

So excited to see them being awkward and cute together.
And the preview for ep8, I knew it! I knew that Seok Ryu might have liked Seung Hyo first! So cute!

So excited for ep 8

I think you watched a complete different preview. Episode 8 preview shows the complete opposite of what you just stated. Also answers the question about if FL liked the ML.

Yes seems like those moments happen on the same night.

The pre release clip when they are walking in the evening, seems like it could be possibly the same night or next night that everything was exposed about her ex and the mama wanting confront the ex. Then in pre release clip while they are walking he keeps saying they know a lot about each other's past and that doesn't work in his favor which gives an illusion that he confessed. And Seok Ryu seems like she awkward, like he confessed. But that's understandable and not a bad thing. But I guess we will have to see what happened.

I'm just wondering if he interrupts right after the confession.

Did you see the pre release clip for episode 7. People are thinking that he might have already confessed.

I understand your perspective but at this point, I don't know if he will have a choice not to confess. If he really confesses from the scene we left on, it would be understandable. Seok Ryu is demanding an answer from him. Of course he can say he has a lot on his mind and he will tell her at a better time. But at this point I don't know if Seok Ryu will take that answer because Seung Hyo has been acting very strange that she needs answers. To be honest I don't know if it's best to wait for a better timing for them because that's what they did before and they missed each other for years. So I say there is no better time than now, haha. Even if the ex is coming.
Seok Ryu can confess without giving her pressure to certain extent. Which I suspect is the route he might go.
He can say to her that he likes her but he doesn't expect her to reciprocate or she doesn't have to give an answer at all now.

We can't fully think that the FL wasn't in love ML. For all we know she could have fallen in love with him first. But that is what the whole journey and fun part of the drama is about, to discover the details and journey of their friendship and relationship. We just have to have patience. Because which writer would want to reveal all the information before the halfmark.

From the the pre release clip. I really think Seung Hyo might have confessed. I really hope he confesses in episode 7 or even 8 at least.

The drama is challenging the idea of what success, accomplishments and happiness is. FL spent her whole life striving for what her mother and outside society deemed as successful and prestigious, to the point she destroyed herself. Now she is seeking something that simply makes her happy not because of imagery or status but happiness. In society cooking is overlooked and deemed as basic compared to things like lawyer. But cooking simply makes her happy. That is the point. The writer probably didn't want to choose a job that society stereotypically deems as prestigious to make a point. Your happiness doesn't have to match the outside expectations of prestige. And I think cooking also still a highly important and commendable job.

I agree.

I don't think so. I think it will be a happy ending.

The way people are theorizing in the comments, people are getting a little bit carried away. My bet is still on a Happy Ending. You can't believe everything that is on the internet.

Exactly! 🤣

Exactly!
