So Yu-na - selfish, arrogant, rich Yu-na - made the ultimate sacrifice to protect Jae Hyun. I was surprised that she actually cares about him. I figured it was a story of young lust that would extinguish as quickly as it started.

Is there something about eating ramyeon together that is considered especially meaningful or romantic?

They are my 2nd favorite couple.

I just finished re-watch on a much better device and at the end, I think OHB is realizing that she is risking losing GTS by holding the press conference, but she knows it is what is best for him as a person. Things might get rocky between them (or not) but Salty Lady is waiting in the wings (kyu-min: "There are many other people who hate GTS besides me"). But then, I have always felt that at some point, OHB would be the target once their relationship is public.

I think he was involved somehow with Salty Lady - I don't think we have heard the last of her.

He's one of the candidates, but based on some of his prior comments, I agree with you - not likely. I'm wondering about the Bar owner that was once a Director at Starforce - that came out of the blue (at least for me).

I guess I missed (in past episodes) the part about the mirror being reincarnated within Seul Hae's body, but todays episode made it clear that it was in her hands when she died so that dot is connected for me. I like the fact that she will be part of the ultimate solution I was afraid that she would be a distraction or somehow complicate things, but Ep 11 showed otherwise.

Am I correct in believing that it was SEUL-HAE that protected CCW from the Evil Spirit? Let me just say that I very much appreciated Super Power CCW and Seul-Hae more than their past lives which, to me were sweet, weak and doomed.

AGREE! I have loved the young couple from their first scenes together and I know she will redeem herself. She very much loves her grandmother and she put herself in danger today (and was harmed because of it). Officer Ryeol knows and understands her and loves her anyway. She will risk it all - including the wealth - for the right reasons. I wish they had more screen time.

I guess I missed those. Were they all related to GTS or were there other recipients.

They never dated. She was being pressured by another actor (I believe it was GTS' main rival?) so he agreed to publicly announcing they were dating in order to help her.

As a fairly newbie to K-dramas, for me, "Crazy Love" is the Gold Standard for romance and comedy. Fake dating, hilarious dialogue and situations, great supporting cast with their own side stories/vignettes, NO BREAK-UP, fast clean up on Aisle 5 Misunderstandings. outside forces working against the ML/FL who are able to work together to battle. "From Now On, Showtime" is manifesting all of these elements. And "Shooting Stars", I believe is traveling the same path. I don't think there will be a break-up. If there is a true break-up of the Main Couple, then I'll probably drop because I want to watch strong couples who work through their issues. Plus, they did give us the cliche breakup in one of the minor pairs, so I think K-drama Trope Gods will be satisfied with that and that's one reunion that I am very much looking forward to.

Who is Tae Sung's Dad? Two candidates in Ep 12.

Yep, she's like Min-kyu - she has no purpose in the show. Thus far, although her character is in virtually every episode, she doesn't contribute anything meaningful to the major story arcs. So, I imagine her pivotal role is still to come.

I continue to believe that at some point the show will deal with the issue of crazy fangirls - although perhaps the "cliche twist" is that they featured a crazy rich lady "fan" instead.

Yep - She has something to say "before it's too late".

Yeah! I leave for holiday weekend in a couple of hours and didn't think I would be able to watch English version for a couple of days. Thank you.

I don't think smileboy took the photo. In Ep. 10 (Mark 35) KMH scrolled through her tablet and came to a prior email from "sosospecial_kmh" (aka Salty Lady) thru the anti-fan site. It was the photo and the Luca drawing, She is the only one who could have taken that photo. Perhaps it was in the chat room, but it looked like email trail to me. She said "Here's my special present" (TVN) /"I'm dispatching you a special gift "(Viki). Smileboy replied "Do you live next door to him? Isnt' that his home in the photo?" When Smileboy created the draft gossip article (at the end of Ep. 9), the subs say "Made w/a photo from SoSweet. Won't this cause a stir?"(TVN)/"made w/a photo from Source Special. This reveal will cause a riot right"(Viki).

And yes, I spent a couple of hours last week comparing the TVN/Viki subs in these scenes to try and figure out who did what and in what sequence because it was so confusing.

They are working together but I don't think they know each other personally. My guess is that Lee Yoon Wu was one of Salty Lady's "special" friends/actors - leestar127. I think SHE was somehow related to his death, however it may have occurred. And that will be the big reveal in the Ep. 13/14/15 episodes. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 😃😎😃😎

Thanks - I thought smileboy sent the gossip/speculation to the reporters in Ep. 10 (from the cemetary). We don't know Min-kyu's relation to Lee Yoon Woo (Actor Luca), but I do think Lee Yoon Woo was one of Salty Lady's "Special" boys - leestar137.

I apologize for asking questions, but I probably won't be able to watch the Eng Sub version of Ep 11 and 12 until Sunday (and won't be able to watch Ep. 12 live feed). I thought they cleared up the "hug" photo early in the episode. So, it's now several days later and the media is once again re-focusing on this? we're still waiting for the Luca "Dad" drawing to appear as well. I should probably just avoid Shooting Stars message boards for the next days and focus on From Now On Showtime (which I will be able to watch!).

I thought they were having a staring contest to see who would blink first.🤣🤣 The kisses were very nice.

Watching Jin Ki-joo (from my other favorite show From Now On Showtime) laughing hysterically o the phone with Park So-Jin was hilarious even though I didn't understand a single word.

"but what i am sure of is that the salty mom will share that pic with the revenge guy,"

I'm not sure which photo you are referring to. She already shared the photo of GTS/Mom and the Luca drawing of "Dad" w/smileboy (Min-kyu) in the anti-fan site. Either via email or chat room - I can't determine which. Is there a current photo of GTS with OHB? We haven't seen it yet. Which make me wonder - WHO shared the photo of their college promotional cover??? Was it Salty Lady - she's the only one that had access (that we know of). Or, just a rnadom poster that we will never hear about?

"But I'm sure once people learn about their relationship, People are going to bash OHB :("
This scenario - the GTS fans "attacking" OHB (verbally/on-line/physically) absolutely is a given for this series. It is a mainstay (cliche/trope/whatever) of all K-dramas that involve a celebrity. It is unavoidable. I envision scenes of GTS regretting declaring his love for OHB since it has negative consequences. But this Super Couple will survive and be stronger. If writers insert a "break-up", I will be disappointed - too tropey; too cliche; too pedestrian).
