I doubt he'll die from the fire from the past. I think what will happen is he will be lost in time.

Remember how he is often repelled by objects in the past? If the building collapsed on him, he will be constantly repelled to the point that there's nowhere else to go and he'll passed out. It will take time for the rubble to be cleared, so he'll be stuck, passed out, in the past while under those rubble.

By the time the area where he was stuck is cleared, months, possibly a year, went by already. And there's no guarantee he'll wake up immediately after all those months under that rubble constantly repelling him.

Think being blasted by a massive speaker while you're down already.

That is also why his mother saw in her dream that they will hold a funeral where the casket will be empty. It hints that in the present time, the ML did not return for months already, and they have to accept that he died in the past.

But that's the thing. Eventually that rubble will be cleared. And if he did not die from months of constant repelling of past objects against his body (again think massive speaker blowing its soundwaves on you), then there is still a chance he'll eventually wake up.

Though by the time he wakes up, if his memories are intact, months to a year already passed, and when he returns, he'll return to a point in time similar to how long he disappeared.

^_~

At least that's how I see it.

Nope, it won't have a S02. The story will end in the remaining two episodes. There's not much to tell at this point. They already reached the plot where they have to tie the loose ends, and give it a good ending. ^_^

Vagabond, Hospital Playlist, etc. got a new season months to years after a complete silence. ^_~

So far, they haven't shown the “present time” when the ML traveled back to the past to tell the FL where Ina was hiding.

Also, that version of the ML did not say anything other than Ina's case. He just stared at the FL when she was about to leave.

If you looked at the scene and the ML's face, it sends the aura that he was fighting himself not to tell her additional information, because it might accidentally change things that already happened from his relative time.

In addition to that, if I am not blind, that future ML who told them where Ina was, he was wearing similar clothing as to when he saved the FL from the school fire. Which gives another possibility that that future ML version was either about to save her, or already saved her.

Personally, I think it was the version of the ML that already saved her, because they intentionally kept the camera zoomed-out from the ML. It's as if they don't want to give any hint about the scratch on his neck.

And him staying back instead of his usual coming near to the FL was itself suspicious. Could it be he was hiding that scratch on his neck?

Of course, none of it says he already saved the FL. It could very well be he was about to save her, hence, he looks sad because he probably already know he's going to die (maybe the FL or his family told him eventually).

In real world science theory, them not being able to change future and the past is because everything that should happen already happened. From the ML's perspective, it is only about to happen, but from the FL's perspective, seeing the future versions of the MLs means that that future already happened. Does that make any sense?

So, yes, it does seem that things will end badly, with the ML dying.

HOWEVER!

I think they already hinted he'll survive.. ^_~

You know, all of them are being controlled by their abilities. His sister can't fly even though she conquered her obesity (note to others: being obese is different from being fat; don't mix the two). Their mother practically surrendered herself to her powers… granted, she already tried but failed.

And Ina, her ability to hear thoughts just came up at the wrong time, which is why she's blaming herself; not just because of what she heard from her mom, but the timing when her powers manifested, which distracted her mother from her driving. Who wouldn't? Especially when that ability is to hear thoughts?

But now, Ina's father, despite the creeping depression, can now control his powers. He can even go to a time where the FL wasn't there (the friends travel while they were headed to the beach). He can now use his ability the way he wants to.

Ina is similar. Although in her case, she needs glasses. But, symbolically, she is no longer being controlled by her ability. She was freed from the burden she carried since that accident. She's like X-Men's Cyclops. There is no on/off to her ability, it's permanently “on”, she needs her glasses. But she is no longer afraid of it. She no longer sees it as a curse.

Ina's aunt will more likely learn to control her powers on her own once she sets herself free from her deep resentment on her mother. She has this desires and dreams that she let go because of her mother, and that is what's blocking her ability to fly.

The most challenging is their mother/grandma. She can't let go of the past (when she tried to save her father), and voluntarily surrendered herself to her ability. I think she can control her ability the way a film director watches different films. But because she just let her ability to run, she's limited to whatever information she was able see. I think her ability has more to do with what we call as lucid dreaming.

There are lucid dreamers who can control their lucid dreams. It isn't easy, and it requires training, not to mention, it's tiring. (I can control my lucid dreams.) If she can learn that, she will be able to control her ability as well. She can go forward or rewind, and understand the bigger picture better, instead of trying to interpret things.

Yep. Instead of him having control over his ability, it is the other way around.

Oh, yes! A very good point! Indeed, she is only hearing thoughts at the moment she use her powers, thus lacking in context. And if someone figured out she can read thoughts, and the limitation of her ability, they'll know how to block their thoughts and/or manipulate her.

Like how the FL did, she sings the national anthem! Haha. And if Ina's more attuned to her powers, she'll realise that the FL was blocking her thoughts from her. I mean, of all the things you would think, it's the national anthem, very unusual if one hasn't shown that nationalism naturally outwardly, LOL.

As expected, the Cannes will defend the action of that staff despite it being obvious that there was a clear difference with how White celebrities were “ushered” in versus non-white celebrities.

It is about time that the world boycott Cannes. Otherwise, they won't apologise for it, they won't take action, because for them “the issue will blow up and forgotten in a few months”.

Obviously, no one is saying all Westerners are like Cannes, and that particular staff. However, Cannes, as supposedly a well-respected organisation, should have done something about this instead of letting random staff make statements in defense. They hired those staff, be it outsource or in-house, so they should take responsibility for it, investigate it, and make an official statement and what actions they will take.

Not like this, where the organisation is silent.

What a very sad and painful revelation, with the perfect BGM and dialogues.

She kept it all to herself. Like d*mn, kids shouldn't know these things. She became an adult at a very young age and grew up to teenage as any adult would have.

That's so d*mn messed up.

I'm sorry, there just isn't any word to describe and express it. Kids should be protected from these things. It's so painful and sad.

“I'm a monster!”
“I never should've been born!”

The ultimate question: Are their powers a blessing or a curse?

And Ina came to the conclusion that their powers are a curse, and grew up to teenager that way, their powers are a curse. They are monsters.

I repeated the scenes 7 times. They should give the writer, director, and actors, the best awards for this episode.

It is indeed a great honour to be called as someone who made others popular. It speaks volume to how successful you are.

Think of, say, Running Man, they made a lot of celebrities popular by taking care of them. Now imagine that same fame and influence but only from one person: Hyeyoon. That's huge. She has that power.

I'm also glad that she's humble. She could've joked about it, being a bubbly person in real life, but she did not. It shows how she never saw herself as the key to her ML partners' sudden success. For her, it's just another day at work, enjoy it day in and day out.

So, yes, Hyeyoon, even though you don't think of yourself as a very influential celebrity, with such great power, we, your fans, know that you are. You are simply amazing!

Hehehe. I know. But, daily dramas were meant for homestay family members. It's a format that was popular in the 70s, 80s, and 90s.

If you noticed, they also verbalise their thoughts and what they are doing, as if the audience don't have eyes. The reason for that was, again, meant for homestay family members who are more likely doing something while the TV is playing loud.

And dragging it out is part of the formula. You don't want to end it so quickly. What you want is for the homestay members to have something to talk about daily, especially during weekends.

Daily dramas are often more or less 30 minutes per episode. In addition, it has a weekly theme. Each weekly theme forms an arc. An arc can be a 2-week to 3-week arc, then it moves on to the next arc with multiple weekly themes. (Some arcs also overlap.)

This planning was designed to make the homestay members talk about the show. It helps them with “small talk” or socializing during their downtime or neighbourhood game / chitchat time.

I personally enjoy this format, not because I'm homestay, but I grew up in the 80s and 90s. Hahaha. Also, at work, it is easy to watch a 30-minute episode daily. It is a very good break from stress at work, and gives a topic for discussion in the office. LOL. Because the information in each episode are minimal and compartmentalised, it is easy to have a discussion without branching out. In a 60-120-minute episode, there are always so many revelations, discussions usually go everywhere.

^_^

I hope it helps.

They did show Suji developing feelings for Uri, the problem was, Hyunsung came into the picture. It was there, very subtle. She just failed to recognise it because of Hyunsung.

And don't worry, it is not easy to spot. It just was easy for me because I've been there (and played “Dr. Love” and matchmaker for friends). A few years before my 15-year relationship ended, I already knew my then gf started to fall for someone but she haven't realised it because I was still her bf. Tried to stop it, but there's nothing I can do because before we even started dating, I already knew there's a very huge risk I'll only be her “rebound” or “healing phase”, and once she's over that phase, she'll be gone.

Yeah! Finally, someone said it. Uri no less. I guess he always wanted to say that to his face, and was just waiting for the perfect moment.

If he said that earlier, it wouldn't make much impact. But after everything Hyunsung did, in front of everyone else no less, Uri saying the truth to his face at that moment was soooooo perfect. There's just no way for Hyunsung to escape the truth, no excuses he can make.

Well, of course he'll find excuses, but those new excuses will be shallow, almost empty. It will eat him up and then make him show his true colors even more.

Then add his mother's assumption that his father is having an affair with the owner of the restaurant. Hyunsung will more likely storm there, drag Suji away, make a public accusation.

LMAO.

Only later, it will be revealed that they're mother-daughter. ROFLOL.

Epic downfall.

So… E49 isn't what we expected. LOL. Well, it's only E49, there is still E50 to end this week's theme.

There is still hope that E51 E55 will be the revelation theme. We need to get to that one fast, there are only 70 episodes left after E50 airs.

But at least we're finally going to get what we want, as far as romantic relationship goes. ^_^

Interesting dynamics.

A. 1FL = the one 2FL tried to kill
B. 1ML = the real grandson of the Chairwoman
C. 2ML = is weak; he does things half way only, and then lets himself be used again

Also, is not 2ML adopted?

D. 1ML's mother is the real wife
E. 2ML's mother is the mistress
F. 2FL and her mother still owe the 1FL big time.
G: 1ML and 2ML are falling for the 1FL
H. 2FL wants the 1ML for herself

It requires a police chart to understand the relationship dynamics. LOL.

If this is the case, then that means episodes 51 to 55 will be about revelations and the after-effects of it.

Then episodes 56-60 will be custody battle. Hyunsung kneeling before Suji's biological mother.

There is also the case of Hyunsung's mother misunderstanding Suji's biomom as mistress of her husband. ROFLOLMAO. That's going to be another bomb.

I'm thinking, Hyunsung's mom will tell him, “What?! Suji's biological mother is the mistress of your dad?!"

BWAHAHAHAHAHA. Hyunsung already buried himself 6 feet under, and his mother is going to make things far worse.

Hyunsung's mother will probably face Suji's mother about being the mistress of her husband.

Then Suji's mom is going to learn she is Hyunsung's mother.

Suji's biomom: Like mother, like son.

Hyunsung: F*CK, I'll have to kidnap Suji, that's the only way to get what is mine.

LMAO.

--- of course, the writer will likely go that way… too predictable. But still…

The biological mother and the thief/traitor friend/mistress finally saw each other, and biological mom realised Suji is her daughter?!!!!!!!

Woah! Is it really, the “FINALLY” moment?
