I had more hopes for this drama, and personally for me while it's not a "bad" drama it just didn't deliver anything memorable. I felt like the pacing wasn't as great for one with the ending feeling quite rushed and abrupt. I think the second leads storyline was also a lot more interesting compared to the main leads and honestly I was only tuned in for them.
I really like this drama so far. At first I thought it was going to be a little like World of the married just thematically but it seems like it won't be and I'm glad because it feels fresh and different. Also it seems like the two girls might be more than just friends? It's pretty obviously hinting at that and I wonder what that'll entail for the overall story. But so far there's a lot going on I mean we have divorce, cheating, rags to riches, crime.... i wonder how it's all gonna fit in 8 eps
Ok since everyones already addressing all the major things here let me just punch in something entirely unnecessary for the hell of it.. Near the end of ep 8... that blue hued kiss scene...dare I say spiciest scene I've seen this year from a kdrama. So spicy it was hard to watch ngl like I was just looking away after a bit. Felt like that meme with the chair at the corner of the room. But director...damn he had a vision
Ok so far I’m liking this drama. I particularly like the direction, it’s definitely a little different and not typical of kdrama so it’s refreshing to see something a little new mixed with the usual formula we know lol
I think this character is def HIY’s strong suit which are characters that are flirty and a little arrogant. Also there’s prob a lot more to that backstory ofc it’s only been 2 episodes but with a grudge like that there has to be something deeper
Chemistry is good already too so hopefully the writing doesn’t tank half way 🙏🏻
I am curious about the real Shin Seori. Where did her soul go?
I think it's more so that Shin Seori is Kang Dan shim but in present time .... like they're the same soul, and her past life essentially "woke up" maybe
Can I be honest... I wasn't too fond of the ML before this drama. I never disliked him, I just didn’t care for him. But he’s such a gem of an actor. He uses every muscle in his face and portrays this character so naturally. That ending scene in episode 9 was insane. Going through multiple emotions in such a short time isn’t easy, and he did it seamlessly. I’m a fan now, fr... LJY is amazing as well of course, we already know that. However, I think this drama is definitely where Heo Nam Jun is getting his flowers.
I think it's very intuitive for their characters to argue. Two alphas LOL ... but I think it's also not a bad thing bc they are entirely themselves with each other and don't hold back. They're also comfortable enough to express every emotion.
What I find so sweet about the writing is that Euijoo would look at him smiling from afar and get sad that he never smiled at her or for her and in the end he's cheesing the whole time. I think she won
what was euiji thinking?? why would his teacher go to a date with his minor student lmaooo
Hah like her just running with the “are you free Saturday” as if he asked her out
Second hand embarrassment omg
But yeah like what are we thinking?? Why on earth would ur teacher respond “YES PLEASE LETS DATE” especially while he’s still your teacher and you’re still a minor
Like even her best friend was like you need to confess… girl no that’s terrible advice With literally anyone else it works but not with your math teacher but whatever it aids in the ridiculous comedy. I found her confession so funny. if someone confessed to me like I think I’d actually find it so adorable like what a creative way to express your feelings.
He actually answered that his response is what he said 10 years ago...what did he say? I didnt catch anything…
He said his answer to her absolute value problem was the promise they made ten years ago. She was crying bc she did bad on a math test and he taught her and she said she’d show him her full 100% next time they met. Lol but she was at 4/100 when she met him again. So essentially she’s the reason why he aspired to be a teacher, and influenced who he is. She’s just special to him.
I think it's pretty simple and obvious as to where they stand with each other. He is not saying "no" .... the other girl he was very direct, and he is usually very direct so him to not be saying anything to her is a pretty obvious answer. Not necessarily "yes let's be together forever and ever" but its mutual admiration and with an open ending it leaves room to grow. The writer and director can't be outwardly putting them into a relationship that would be absurd. She's also acting so jealous which is so funny but he doesn't say anything he's just listening and laughing. Very show not tell. The first snow symbolism goes hard too....HA
See the thing is I wouldn't mind them having a time jump and then reconnecting later once she's not a kid. Right now her liking her teacher is majorly because he makes her feel safe enough to be vulnerable and has shown himself to be dependable. So yes her affection towards him at this stage is not really romantic it's admiration and respect.
But I will say.... bruh they have good chemistry on camera, both synergistically and then just the way they bounce off of one another in scenes, it's very fluid and natural. Even the comedy is so naturally funny which is refreshing because there's such a lack of that in shows these days.
Absolute value is just a distance from 0...sooo it's always a positive ...soooooo who knows ....
