Damn I feel bad for KML even though it's his own actions that are making it worse for him T.T
It's not like he has many options though, he's just been dealt a hand that sucks in all ways- he can't listen to Qipa's request of sending her home even if he wanted to, because he needs her for his clan; Qipa's trust in him already weakened as Li Xiong so he can't bring himself to tell the truth because then she'll think he's just using her, which as we all know is not true in the slightest (plus we saw how hurt she was when she found out that li xiong wasn't who she thought he was. now just imagine her reaction when he finds out that LX was KML all along? yeah, it's NOT going to be pretty. which makes all the more reason for KML to come clean about it, but his fears are not completely unfounded, he is scared of hurting her more than he already has. unfortunately, it will probably make things worse in the long run. AHH i feel bad for him, man ). And i think he tried to tell her, in episode 16? But got interrupted bc of the assassin.
Then we have Qipa's situation. I do think she's starting to grow fond of the place in general, because of her monologue that she needs to get away before she starts getting attached to them.
Oh I'm starting to understand why Kui Mulang is so endearing even though he does some questionable stuff, it's because he is quick to admit that he's in the wrong. He knows that what he's doing to Qipa is not fair, but he also cares a lot for her and genuinely doesn't want to hurt her, and feels guilty when he does, and wants to make things up to her.
These traits make him feel real and not just a character who is there to be strung along by the tropes
oh she finally knows that he's been lying to her.. and you're telling me we're getting only one episode tomorrow?? this is criminal wtf- i need the angst AND the comfort after that
I get the discourse about CEJ and KDJ but I simply don't understand all this hate for Woojin everywhere? Let's talk about Episodes 13 & 14. He stopped KDJ from yelling at CEJ in the middle of the surgery because she needed to focus on the patient at that moment. Scolding EJ when she was operating would do no one any good, only risking the patient's life further. Then, in 14 he asked KDJ about his intentions and also tried to stop CEJ from going ahead with the boycott because he knew better than anyone else what a boycott truly means- making someone an outcast because they won't act the way you want them to, so of course he was against it. Though I do agree that WJ shouldn't have stepped into the OR while his hand is still under rehabilitation; it probably worsened any chance he had at a full recovery. His inability to put himself first and his recklessness are his major flaws, yes, but that doesn't warrant him so much hate.
Out of CEJ, KDJ and SWJ, only Woojin is the one who approached the situation with an open mind in both cases. KDJ is hellbent on following his own rules with no signs of compromise and won't even communicate with the staff. That's not how things work when you are working with a team, and even Kim Sabu pointed it out by asking him if he wants to become a boss or a leader. CEJ seems poorly written these two episodes. I find it hard to believe that she actually went ahead with the boycott, considering she knew how WJ suffered because of the same thing. Boycott aside, while it's true that she disobeyed the rules of the TC, it's also true that she saved two lives in that time. Both of them refuse to see where they are wrong, and that's what made them clash.
tldr: Neither of them are completely wrong or right. And that's what WJ pointed out.
went in not expecting much, but ended up liking it a good bit! i think it might be helpful to know that the show has a very slice-of-life-y feel to it compared to the previous school dramas- so adjust your lens likewise and it does make for a sweet and breezy watch, albeit there are some difficult moments.
hopefully this one gives ji-hyuk a proper character arc and development π€π»the first season really did him dirty in terms of character depth, especially considering the fact that he was listed as one of the main characters. anw, does anyone know when this airs?
