Unpopular opinion - some of yall don't want to admit if, but if the chief editor was played by Park Bo Gum or…
(I know that he's just a side character in webtoon, but after reading some negative comments about him I could not sit quiet - like what did he ever do?)
Unpopular opinion - some of yall don't want to admit if, but if the chief editor was played by Park Bo Gum or somebody just as handsome as him, you'd be on this ship faster than Babi falling for the intern. Because other than his looks, what makes his approach to Yumi that much different from Babi? Babi could be also strict and demanding as a team leader, and in the beginning he used Yumi's favourite things to get a date with her and win her over. But no, chief editor is bad but Babi is perfect. At least chief editor doesn't make a move when he learns that Yumi's taken. I guess looks are more important than actual character traits these days...
At this point, I actually don't see much reason to even portray Yumi's relationship with Babi. Maybe in webtoon it was longer and more developed, no idea, but here it just seems very rushed, but at the same time draggy and superficial from my perspective. Yumi didn't learn a lot during the relationship as of now, cause nothing happens. Not that she has to, but it's a TV show about her development, so it would be nice to see. And we didn't get deep into Yumi and Babi's feelings yet, apart from a bit of jealousy here and there. Like, every relationship has its ups and downs, better and worse moments. Here we even have long distance relationship, but it's not portrayed as a problem for them? Wasted potential.
So most of this season kinda feels like a filler to me, at least so far. Not only is Babi super boring, but their relationship is as well. Maybe apart from that moment when she touched his butt, that was sth new haha. But most things were done better and with waaay more chemistry in S1.
I definitely don't mind Yumi changing boyfriends, but it seems as if she's still in her 1st month of dating Babi, not past her 1st anniversary... if their relationship is doomed anyway I just hope they will break up ASAP, short and sweet.
Damn, I'm 30mins in ep 8 and the new chef editor character has already way more character than Babi...
I read already that he was just a side character in webtoon, BUT I WANT TO SEE THEM DEVELOP SO MUCH GIVE ME THAT ENEMIES TO LOVERS PLOT NOT THAT BLANDNESS WITH BABI
i don't want to suspect gyehoon's father in all of this, but based on the absolute mystery that surrounds him…
Yes! I found the "dr. eun's son is back" to be very weird as well. As if nobody remembers the mother. But at the same time, the sister died when EGH's father was with him, so either the father had an accomplice, or she was slowly dying?
I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to do some sort of experiment on EGY due to the supernatural connection between the kids and it failed.
Seeing how this show has the same writer as Suspicious Partner, main villain there kinda reminds of the stalker…
Damn, never got through SP but that's really dark... But I can definitely see your point, the stalker is getting a lot of screentime recently so they will definitely give him a backstory soon.
Kinda have a feeling that they are gonna somehow redeem the stalker? Like the last scene in ep8 when they turn into their child selves felt weirdly nostalgic and the fight was more like a fight between ex friends rather than a fight with an assumed murderer and stalker. Dunno, just haven't felt the inital horror of the stalker in ep7 and ep8, and while I can get behind portraying him like the pathetic human that he is, he now seems more like a strange guy nobody likes cause he's an asshole. So I'm wandering if they are gonna pull out some shit like that he was broken from an early age, looking for love, and didn't really kill female chef's sister or sth like that, and the real killer being behind him and manipulating him all along. Although I really wish they don't do that. Dunno, just a thought
Also, I just really don't want the leads to split near the end due to FL family being involved in ML's sister murder or heart transplant from the sister or any other bullshit. That would be an unnecessary cliche for a show that so far is pretty good. Pls writer-nim, that's my only wish.
I know it's a minor detail, but one of the best things so far for me was when DH told GH that she murdered somebody, but then tried to portrait it as a joke and he didn't fall for it. That's one of the cliches I hate the most - confessing and turning it into a joke, right behind "she kissed/confessed/whatever but he was sleeping/sick/drunk and doesn't remember a thing the next day"
