Lin's cousin should become a licensed counsellor at this rate 🤭

Ep 5 if i'm not mistaken but they also give clues in the initial episodes as well (his "nightmare" as well as the way he stares at the FL at times for instance).

They seem to be keeping the age gap vague on purpose.

His mum's way of phrasing their age gap "3-4-5-6-7-8.." could be either intepretted as literally 8 years or she was just exaggerating since she had a teasing tone when she said it. Like as if to imply their age gap isn't something worth obsessing about and she's just glad that her son finally has a friend he is comfortable bringing home (she knows her as his student/ friend).

It can't be more than 5-8 years anyway i guess.

It's thought provoking in a way since the ML liked the adult version of the FL first so there's nothing worth freaking out over but at the same since they reunite when she was a HS student, some get concerned (eventhough nothing happened while she was a student).

Can you recall how the brother addresses him? That could give us a clue since the brother is at least 3 years older than GXJ. Since GXJ didn't believe Lin when he said that he was a PhD student, he can't be that old.

He was always interested in her since what she told him during a chance encounter gave him a lot of strength but never really persued after her.

He's a lot like the ML from Marry My Husband.

Apparently he doesn't have any serious dating history based on the way he kept blushing when the FL's brother asked him. He's a super serious genius who lost his best friend 💀 at a young age due to a technical error his team made with one of their experiments. My best guess is that he used his trauma to dedicate his life into getting perfect results in whatever work he does and not waste time on trivial things like having casual flings- specially since the FL also was always with her dumdum BF. He didn't even cut the FL any slack when she was his subordinate in their first life 🙈

Both

It more or less revolves around the fact that the other candidates say what they think the interviewers want to hear (i.e. act as mindless drones regardless of how they really feel in order to get the job) vs. the FL who isn't afraid to be blunt i guess?

Time Travel is banned since it gives viewers delusional ideas/ implies that history can be rewritten. To protect viewers, writers have to take thr appropriate steps to meet censorship guidelines. That's why most TT C-dramas go for the "This a dream" loophole.

The Coma thrope is a common loophole used to prevent China from banning the drama.

Best thing is to just not bother too much about the "final" ending they give since the writers too try their best to figure out a middle ground usually 🥲

(Personally if i don't like the edited ending, I usually just read the novel ending in order to get some closure )

The way Manami keeps getting more interested in teaching thanks to Taiga and the reformed HS student, I feel like she might find a new dream related to teaching?

The drama is pretty heavy on "new beginnings/ things change" after all🤔

-Timetravel drama with the most feared "coma" loophole while bringing back one of the original 💀 characters back to life. Will it end with a happy end seeing as Gao is supposed to be part of the third couple? No idea 🙈

-FL declares that she hates the old him...literally making it impossible for him to confess the truth until he knows for sure she will not hate him

-Bringing back the questionable SFL when they already gave her a pretty good farewell in ep 10

-SML chooses to move on only to be reeled in again

NGL the screenwriter seems to love challenges🙈

It's still interesting but I'm really curious to know how it will end🙈

What I like about SOOY is that the MC can be goofy but they are mature at the same time🤭

Lin doesn't really play around with his intentions unlike some Leads who either get too clingy after a second chance or pretend to be too "cold". Even GXJ, she makes use of her future experiences alot to benefit her. She doesn't take her second chance for granted.

Honestly they should have wrapped up her arc in ep 10. It would have been a good way to end things for her character. Bringing her back adds no value at all.

That was an awesome Easter egg ngl. Her fox demon was one of the best I’ve seen so far.🤭

Ah I see. I was wondering why the rule works at times while other times it doesn't reall apply. For instance woth Blossom and Princess Royal, it's kind of hilarious that just declaring they were in a "dream" was enough to bypass censorship rules since it's so obvious that it's time travel.

Yeah...they shouldn't have gone for the coma angle🫠

Torally recommend Prisoner of Beauty if you are into Enemies to Lovers thrope. It was so worth the watch since the main characters were well written.

The timeslip confusion can't be helped unfortunately- China's censorship makes it impossible for screenwriters to get as creative as they want. We just need to be as understanding as possible since it's the "confusion" that allowed us to at least get this much.

IKR?! I was so excited last week sinceI thought we'd get all episodes this week 🥲🥲🥲

The preview is tooooo good! I haven't even watched ep 11-12 yet but was too curious to wait 🙈

He's the king of delulu🤦‍♀️🤣
