Kim Go Eun's Dilemma about Work Recently, KGE who is fluent in Mandarin Chinese received many invitations for…
Oh really?I didn't know that she lived that long in China. I hope that pays off in the end and like you said, it will be a great boost to her career :)
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
LOVE the theory behind what could have happened with the hand incident. and I think what @Larelin also added, makes more sense compared to what has already took place in the drama so far.
I also doubt that Yoojung KNOWS InHa did it, and remains silent. Yoojung is the type who clears misunderstandings once he is asked about it specifically. And when Seol asked him, he denied that he was the one who did it. And I truly believe him...
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
"There are two kinds of evil people in the world, those who do evil things and those who see evil being done and not do anything about it"
I always remember this quote. And I think even if Yoojung didn't conspire to hurt InHo, the fact that he SAW and left, is burdensome. Unless we are not getting the whole picture, and he walked away and called the police or something? but I keep telling myself, that Yoojung would be not guilty by reason of insanity, and in this case (his psychological problems and tendencies towards others)...
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
you see @oyaaaji we have this thing called "hazing" which is literally bullying but in a different form in schools here in the U.S. And a video would leak of a crowd surrounding these 3 bullies beating up a girl. You will only hear that only those that were beating up are responsible, and the crowd that was gathered around are not responsible for the crime. And I think it doesn't only apply to a school setting, but also a public place.
I will have to look it up really, since I'm not quite sure of the laws pertaining to such passive actions by (bystander or crowds)
But Yoojung, if he walked by, would he be punishable by law for negligence? would that be the reason why his father paid for all the InHo's medical expenses, etc?
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
oh yes I remember that scene, you are right. I'm wondering if it was due to the fact that she was the MOTHER, meaning, she is the guardian, responsible for the well being of her child. Versus a by-stander who didn't do any action?
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
So him walking away, gave InHo the impression that he was at fault?
I was literally discussing this type of scenario with a friend of mine today. She was asking, according to the law, would you be held responsible if you were passing by, and saw someone who is drowning, and didn't help them? Even though you know how to swim.
It's an interesting scenario, because I think that in itself isn't punishable by law, but I think it's morally and socially inappropriate. Which going back to Yoojung's case, fits perfectly his persona, since he is somewhat anti-social, right?

I'm honestly happy that some of my favorite actors are getting recognition and going to China. But, it saddens me that we won't be able to see them just as much in their own mother tongue :(
I hope the drama comes up with a good ending since webtoon is still not done yet.
I like this ending. The most important aspect is for both Yojung and InHo to repair their friendship and solve the misunderstanding "relating to his broken hand". I have a feeling it's a misunderstanding because that is what Yoojung told Seol, and he usually tells her the truth.
One thing I really love about Jung is that he is honest to fault with Seol. It actually amuses me sometimes how he does not lie or sugar coat things and sweet talk to let it to her gently. He's very blunt and straight forward like how he just tells Seol his father is the Taeng Group CEO. He just says it like it's nothing and mean while poor Seol is having a mental melt down because to her that just puts distance between them and it's really interesting that to Jung it doesn't. It says a lot about his character that to him being the son and heir of Taeng Group is not that big of a deal. It doesn't mean that he and Seol can't be together or that they are in such opposite worlds. It also says a lot of how much he wants people to like him for him (even when he knows he is being used) so he hasn't told anyone on campus. Yeah they know he's a rich kid, but they don't know of the amount and richness and power he has. I also think it says a lot about his worth ethic and how he wants to work hard to earn and not be given the things that he has. He's going into his fathers company starting in an entry level position and wants to work his way up. Unlike his YFAS character he doesn't want nor expect special treatment (I forget but I think in the webtoon people at the internship do they know or not that he's the CEO's son?) and seriously want to "started at the bottom but now I'm here".
At the same time it's kind of naïve of him to really think that he's like everyone else or could be like everyone else. He is a rich kid and he has been afford education and opportunities that others do not/have not had which is why he is where he is. At the same time I feel Jung is aware/knows of this, and that is why he does not put up with the Baek kids richard simmons and wants both Inho and Inha to work and earn their keep if you will. Remember that Inho and Inha have grown up with Jung since they were like 8 or 9. The same things that Jung's father provided for Jung was provided for the Baek siblings also (sometimes they given even more than Jung). They were affored the same money, same education, same vacations, and same opportunites. In that regard I can understand why Jung has this sort of, disdain is too strong a word but I can't think of another. For their lazing around if you will and (this is not so much Inho as it is Inha) refusal to get up and actually work for and earn what they want/what they are provided with. Like life is handing you all this richard simmons that other can never even dream of and your kind of letting it go to waste you are not really seizing and taking advantage of the opportunity. I too would be mad and would not longer have time for their richard simmons because if I the heir apparent can go out and try to anonymously make it on my own (well to an extent since dad pays for my education? my house, my clothes, etc) and earn my independence or my throne....why they hell can't ya'll!?!! I know some think he is being cruel and manipulative and to a degree that is true. However I think much of it comes from a place of deeply deeply buried care.
Jung cares about the Baek siblings more than he lets on. Come on we saw the flashbacks (and I hope like in the webtoon the drama goes deeper into this) at one point they were like a very weird three musketeers. Even watching the drama it's clear to see that Jung and Inho know each other very well (and also not well at all since both have changed in their time apart) and know how to poke at each other and make each other tick. Inho does a lot of things to get a Jung (the umbrella huddle wave, calling him using Seol's phone, conversation in the pub before Jung losses it) and Jung does the same (piano talk, your sister, the shared history of the hand incident and other things). They understand each other and know how to push each other. So when Jung comes to the basement and says something like "this is your last chance" while some say he's being arrogant or jerk I think he's push Inho (and also enjoying having the upper hand) the best way he knows how, through his pride and anger. Get him to be like "richard simmons you Jung I'll show you" and he'll get to doing what needs to be done. As for Inha, you got to push her into the deep end and watch how she will sink or swim because that girl is a warrior (she manipulates, she lies, she leads on, but she gets things done for herself) and she'll make it. I don't find Jung's treatment of the two cruel. He gave Inha opportunities to stay in her apartment, keep her credit cards and basically continue living the life she had become accustomed to. All she had to do was take some classes and then go start a job that is ready and waiting. I would kill for something like that.
Man my mind scattered from the main point of this post. Which was supposed to be that Jung is refreshingly honest. When Seol asks him if he's done something he honestly tells her yes what he did and from his point of view why he did it. In this Younggon and Minsoo arc I think we'll see that some of his truth may hurt her or send her reeling, but truthful he will be. Then I think he'll hear her truths and they'll both have to decide where they'll go from there. What I'm interested in seeing is if there is ever a line that Jung could cross that has Seol saying "enough is enough sunbae, I'm out" or does she really see all of him and still love/like/whatever him and accept him unconditionally. That there really is nothing he could say or do that would have her walk away from him for good? I am interested to see that and how I and the rest of the audience (and Jung) will respond/react to that.
I love how you want to attract weirdos to yourself too :P hahaa
I wish there were other people responding here, seriously I feel like we are the only people watching the show. :D

Since you read both the webtoon and watched the drama.
