I have not watched yet but I have seen reviews saying Ep5 was not on par to previous episodes... without any spoilers,…
It depends on what you like about the drama.
If you enjoy SaJu's growing closeness more than the dark, mystery/ real kidnapper's scenes, you'll enjoy episode 5. The episode dwelved more onto their past together and how Sa Eon starts to understand Heeju better.
Not exactly an episode filled with fluff 🎀 but it is more light hearted compared to the previous episodes.
My only thought is how tf did no one find her? She fell down a straight line😭😭
Perhaps she fell far deeper than it looks? Some kind of hidden area? Since it did look like Sa Eon already went down that general direction when he first searched for her.
while i want to criticize some parts of the episode since i really didn't like how some things happened. like,…
This is so true! They've actually done so many changes already (for the better IMO) but some scenes can't really be changed even if they don't make sense as they could be OG fan favourite scenes🙊
Yeah at first I was like yesss some jaelousy scenes, now he’s starting to annoy me. Like leave them alone they…
It does seem like it right? It's possible that could be the reason why he is so invested in HeeJu's connection with Sa Eon? It's not just jealousy but actual concern since he knows/ suspects something about the Paek family?
Is it mean all Korean TV will not be airing the Drama tonight and focussed on government news?
If it's possible, I think MBC will release the episode today. They even shared 2 pre-releases for a change- seems like they are going out of their way to assure fans. 🙊
Bodyguards- they are still there but they aren't supposed to be seen (HeeJoo specifically asked him not to make…
They were supposed to be on a date together.
The bodyguards are supposed to keep an eye on her when she's out alone. It's only speculation, but they could have been dismissed after SE met her at the store...or HJ saved him first. The scene had close ups of the couple only so we don't really know what happened in the background🤷♀️
In ep 2, HJ asked him not to dismiss them when he was mad at them for losing sight of her and in ep 4, it was the original BG's voice that was used when they showed the text confirming her safety after the explosion. They are still there but they don't stay with her 24/7.
He compared the 406's voice to Hee Joo's voice (probably from the police car). It means it's the same voice.
True, 3 years is a long time to drag a misunderstanding.
The main problem with SaJu is that they both think they know eachother but they actually know very little. Since both live a life of lies and secrets, both assumed that there's no reason to even attempt to have a proper relationship.
I do think HJ will put more effort now that she knows that Sa Eon does care about her. Her main issue had been the fact that she thought Sa Eon was forced to marry her too (forced in the sense that he really wanted to marry In Ah and she was just a poor substitute- it didn't help that SE and the family kept reminding her that she was only a substitute).
HeeJu did try to connect with SE at the beginning of their marriage but he rejected her (the dinner and dance flashback- he did mean well because he thought HJ's mum forced her to seduce her. But the way he stopped HJ only reminded her again that she wasn't accepted as his wife). There's only so much you can do if the guy you have secretly loved for a long time constantly reminds you that you aren't a real couple (specially if you are traumatized like HeeJu) 🙈🙈🙈
If it helps, in the novel, HJ sacrifices alot for SE too- they both aren't afraid to die if it could save the other.🙈

So now ideally there will not be any further delays.

They might have an open ending at most?
Have fun - I wish if i had your patience🙈
Her character is grey I believe - neither good nor evil
We still know about their presense through their text exchange with SE (example, the night of the explosion)
