Everyone asking for her real name is kind of proving the show’s point. We’re obsessed with ‘true identity’…
I think that's what she is been trying to say during the investigation. That - hey detective, don't get hung up on the details like names. Understand me as a person, my motives, I did everything to change my given fate / destiny, and I didn't want to continue it. So she changed everything about it, and removed anyone who threatened it. Understand why she had to do it - all for the dream she build - BOUDOIR! It was like her child, and so like a mother she did everything to protect it.
At least this is the way I saw it - the name was just a placeholder. There's no Sarah Kim, and everything was about Sarah Kim.
I have question based on Ep 4 start. Asking in first comment below under spoiler tag. I think this one thing that…
At end of Ep 3 -they find a corpse from the lake. The lake where Sarah Kim had jumped into (when she was going by the name of Mok Ga Hui). Whose corpse was that? They were thinking they won't find the corpse hence proving that Mok Ga Hui had faked her death and become Sarah Kim.
It was not Sarah - cause we know she's alive. The police find it and the scene is then cut to mortuary where it is declared that from the bones, it is supposed to be a male in 20-30s. The detective then exclaims the name "Kang Ji Hwon"
But then Kang Ji Hwon is alive and participates in the investigation, so whose corpse was it? It also cannot be like a time gap, cause Kang Ji Hwon is alive and is asked about Sarah Kim's murder (in the sewer).
I have question based on Ep 4 start. Asking in first comment below under spoiler tag. I think this one thing that was not explained - or have I missed something. If anyone knows please let me know, cause its bothering even after I finished the drama.
No. She was a mess. Go Eun was very different from Mina Sue. It’s a dating show, they can talk to different…
Like I said I think both were quite similar - if I combine the actual show and this reunion. Just one was very loud and proud about it, and other was shown with a mysterious quiet vibe. I won't call any of them problematic - cause its a show afterall, but then their role/behaviour is problematic, from the lens of a viewer as we also get heightened emotions while watching the show: same like the panelists, I am myself guilty of that - and am sure many others as audience. Which is all fine, given that's what the show wants us to do - get invested.
Reflecting back - Mina Sue was painted as a villain right from the start from the way she was so indecisive. In her journey, she did hurt people - be it men that were interested in her, or women who had liked those men too. This is a fact, and I don't think it will change. She did apologise for it, and while we know she could be a wonderful person in real life, at least that was her character.
I feel Go Eun was not so different. She did not hurt anyone, but I think to an extent she was indecisive too. It kind of came out in this reunion as they watched the show play out - and one of the man comments that it was neck to neck for all of them. While that can happen since you cannot really call feelings black and white, but then I feel it was not super different from Mina Sue. Except that she was not very loud and in your face or proud/vain about it, it was quiet and mysterious vibe that she had carried out in the show.
This is just my opinion - from the way I saw the show and now the reunion.
the way it is going I think I need to write a review/comment/ode dedicated to Su-been and Hee-sun. that casual handholding and cute bickering - what are you doing guys!! I love it - and I can't wait for more. Please let it not be for the camera and be real. I want to really believe in love from dating shows - for real 🥹🥹🥹
SU-BEEN & HEE-SUN - JUST GET MARRIED AND LIVE TOGETHER, HAPPILY EVER AFTER! Honestly these two make me believe in fairy-tale love stories (again), maybe just Single's Inferno style?
I love love love them, during the show and now in this reunion. Waiting for the IG announcement soon - handwritten letter/note announcing something beautiful from these two! 💕💕💕
Watching this now - because I am "obsessed" with I-Geon 😍 and honestly S5 has been kind of my favorite. Maybe because after so many seasons I finally liked "two men" in it 🙈 Or maybe it’s just that it still feels so fresh and recent. Time will tell ✨
1. Su-been & Hee-Sun 💕 I’m sooo happy to see them again! Not sure if this reunion is partly for the cameras, but I love where they’re headed. These two were my favs from start to finish - I was satisfied with their ending, and now seeing them together again feels like a bonus gift 🎁 They’re still very young, so who knows how it’ll all play out - but I’m rooting for them with all my heart 💖 JUST GET MARRIED AND LIVE TOGETHER, HAPPILY EVER AFTER! Honestly these two make me beleive in fairytale lovestory, just Single's Inferno style!
2. Jo I-Geon 🥵 He was already "irresistible," and then he shows up at the reunion wearing glasses... excuse me, sir, have mercy 😭🔥 I-Geon-ssi, my ovaries, heart, and brain cannot handle this - but I’m not complaining! I’ve said this before here on MDL and on social media: delulu aside, I really hope *Single’s Inferno* becomes his breakthrough moment and he gets more acting projects.
I’ve seen him here, in EDEN 2, and in The Trunk. He was so good in the dating shows (even with the semi-scripted vibe), and in The Trunk he did well despite limited screen time. We all know some "actors" who are just there for the looks and nothing else 🙄 but I-Geon actually has both the visuals AND acting chops. Honestly, I’m surprised he hasn’t blown up yet. He deserves it so much - fingers crossed this is finally his moment 🌟🙏 Genuinely Praying!
3. Min-gee and Seung-Il Looks like Min-gee wanted more and Seung-Il didn't. Sad, but I kind of expected it. I think one person had put in too much efforts, the other just went with the flow in the show, cause his other options were gone?
It was inventing Anna I’ve been trying to remember. It’s similar to this drama
Absolutely, I also finished it - a little after my earlier comment. And yes that's where the comparison ends, and the internal debate began for me, on what was Sarah and everything that she encapsulates. It was really a very thought-provoking drama, and well done in my opinion.
Yo! Professor-nim, I mean 7-8 not much of a difference at times. Dramas cannot be that objectively evaluated.…
Hahaha I love it - shown her teeth, I can totally imagine Veronica doing that. I understand your ratings too - I guess all of us have different ways to do it, and you can never really make it very strict. Like its not a mathematical formula - its very subjective.
On another note have you seen the Veronica Park drama - The Secret Life of my Secretary?

the moment this drama was announced, I was interested because it had my favorites - SHS & LJH. Then the trailer and synopsis was shared and I was like it feels a bit like "Inventing Anna" - another Netflix show that I had enjoyed back in 2022.
I am still watching "Art of Sarah" - while it is not the same, it definitely has some similar vibes.

Professor-nim,
Oh, if you do watch it, do share how it was for you. Thanks for reading the review, and yes - reviews like dramas can mean different to different people. I have actually tried to bucket the ratings on how I see/rate them in my bio. In case you'd like to take a look: https://mydramalist.com/profile/omo-omo-omo
Mainly 7-8 is a Great/Good Plot with minor flaws. Do share if you watch it, how it was for you.
Best, Veronica Park, CinePark 회장님 (hoijang-nim) 😅🙈✨
I am on Ep 3, and so far really good. Plus am a big fan of the main actors - ML and FL both, yet bias aside, story is really intriguing. It is so far giving me "Inventing Anna" (2022 - Netflix) vibes but with a murder mystery
I am in love with I-geon, basis the looks of course. I saw him here the first time, and then as the show was airing, I went and saw his drama "The Trunk" (he was so freaking hot), and then another dating show he appeared in "Eden Season 2"
His journey was so obviously scripted in both the dating shows. Like these shows are scripted, but even in that, his journey was so much more scripted, if it makes sense. In both, he was going in an obvious direction (towards a woman), but in the end he does something so random and ends up not choosing that woman, or making a situation that the woman does not choose him. Like why? Was his handsome-ness too OP, so they had to give him such a character? 🤣
Anyways - I thoroughly enjoyed watching him and Su-been onscreen. No wonder this is my favorite season, cause never before I had such strong favorites among the male contestants. DAYUMMMM!
