fuck! I was one of those who side eyed her choice for picking up the drama with that title.
'after all that happened, she can't be serious? ' i thought.
but now I'm really glad that she did.
She's the one who read the script after all and there's nothing wrong with it.
so please, IU, keep showing us how stupid we are.
Never stop.

we can only laugh.

can I at least hope that this will at least open the eyes of some people for how ridiculous and disproportionate IU's controversies are???

Press Conference
The press conference will take place on April 11th.
NICE!!!

I gasped at the new CF . So pretty.
They keep giving us all these new pairings to make our lives harder

I'm still adjusting to the beauty (that I didn't see before ) that is IU x Jang Ki Yong, and now, this .
I guess, I'll just have to add another ship.

Guys, do you realise how powerful IU's getting?????
With her 1TOP music career and now her raving reviews in acting, I don't think any other idol carries this much power???
The 'healing' image is probably the smartest thing Fave has established for her. It's what everyone been saying since AFBM 1, so it feels organic. it's mature, but at the same time, relaxed. Perfect.
I hope her acting stride keeps going tho, we all know she's talented, but like sooj, I'm not sure if I trust her choices in projects just yet.
It's all a matter of realising what kind of actress she is, and now, as most of us could already tell, it's clear she's meant to act in dramas, once that's established, she can explore, but really, it's not often that we see actors crossing genres.
anyway, writing to say how proud of IU I am.
10th year, and she's more powerful than ever!!!

given the choice, after IU drops her music, would you guys rather IU joined:
a) another drama
b) a movie
c) back to HBnB
d) joined a show like begin again
e) other
?
for me, I think I'd love to see her in a show like 'begin again' if they reunite the cast from the first season.
as for movie or another drama..... I can wait until Haneul comes back...
I say this, but YSH might be joining another drama soon... and I always hope she's gonna be the female lead but then it's too soon for her to be joining another dram and he's choosing flop project so no. but then it's ysh, so yes. will they ever work together again???

i miss jsw and iu interactions through media .. i say interactions its just a buncha declarations of love from jsw
haha to the point where his co-star got annoyed with him
but nowadays tho, Park Solmi seems to be winning
-
Malia the n1 iu x junki anti. Kkk
I happen to think they are cute.
lol joke!
Makes me miss Haneul *sad face*
When it comes to actor-singers, I wish for iu to collaborate with this guy tho:
Plus CSW is a huge fan.
*love*

I loled so much!!
opening scene of 'my mister' drag version:

i'm the opposite!!! i love re-watching things. i'm a serial re-watcher. i sometimes even prefer to watching something new.
same.
I'm the type who loves repeating scenes just to catch that glimpse in the eye over and over.
I don't usually find it boring.
for me, it got frustrated after watching it with subs because I got absolutely no new info.
Like, what I retained from watching with subs was the same as what I retained from watching without subs.
so to me, since I don't speak Korean, this means that the dialogue has gotten predictable at this stage.
Or it might mean that I'm a genius.... there's also that. *thinks*
I think that giving the drama a break might be the best for my enjoyment so that I can see the story as 'fresh' again.

Ji An's friend says that the son is studying abroad and so they can't use him to get info or to get to PDH. And in episode 5 PDH mentions his name like you said.
Since you are not enjoying it, maybe you can skip some episodes and check back later if the story is progressing more to your liking.
that's probably what I'm going to do .
Which is shame. Because I feel like the cake is turning into a soufflé and not that rich chocolate cake I was promised.
^I hope not tho
Also, aren't you watching it live and then again with subtitles? Maybe that's why you are also finding it repetitive... This drama is low on dialogue, so that might come across as repetitiveness, since you are actually watching multiple times and there's not enough dialogue to differentiate both viewings.
i don't think this is it.
I'm glad you are fully happy tho
-
totally agree with the 180 comment and sure its actually refreshing to see characters more true to real life ..
... (but also i mean everyone is going to view the drama differently) but i feel like rather than wanting the characters to change or the healing to begin i want more story? whether that be more backstory or something that makes me not want to turn away. not that it needs to be SENSATIONAL you know but there's realism in drama and then there's realism with bite and i think i just want a little more bite?
this is exactly how I feel.

The son is studying abroad in the US.
Ji An's parents we might learn about them or not.
PDH being depressed is easily explain by the narrative itself. He is in a marriage that is clearly not working, not only because the wife is cheating, but because they act as almost strangers living in the same house. His son is away. He is working in a job that he doesn't like, like his wife said, a job that looks like he is walking to a slaughterhouse every day. His brothers are down on their lives and since he cares for them, it hurts him to see them like that. He most likely would like for his mother to not have worries, but she worries about his brothers and that makes him sad. And I could go on...
cool... You are enjoying the story, but for me, it's not meeting the point where I can truly say that I am... anymore.
We were never told in the drama about the son. We've only seen LOTS of pictures and DH mentioned his name once.
The've raised questions about JA's parents, hence I expect it to be explained at some point. (otherwise that would've been a pointless dialogue) .
what you've written here is precisely my problem at this stage.

And I could go on...We've had 5 episodes of repetition of exactly that and we already figured all of these things out by episode 2. I don't need more of this cuz I already got it. so I'm willing that the story, not really the pace, moves forward. which is... but not exactly satisfying enough for my personal enjoyment.
-
^but there's absolutely no need to show us something they've showed us before. which is what I feel just happened.
-
my personal issue is i'm getting little satisfaction from it except iu and the directing now ..
edit: i mean tbh i say this but there have been both beautiful and harrowing moments in this which i think have been utterly fantastic and realistic and raw but unfortunately it just feels a little stagnant at present. i still like it tho!
but i think if iu wasn't in it .. if i'm honest .. i would have dropped it by now (i am uber fussy tho) not because it's terrible but because i wouldn't have any desire to sit through it.
i'm still hooked.
But I need to get something out of it too by now. Like, where's the son, what happened to JiAn's parents, why is DH so depressed, etc.
it's on the verge of becoming repetitive.
I hope writer is brave and take us there. If she wants to talk about suicide, then talk about it. if she wants to talk about abuse and adultery, then talk about it.
the first 4 eps had me in a really good place, but ep 5 had me feeling we've taken a step back.
-
i feel the same, the pacing is kinda bumming me out .. i get that its about existence and stuff but its slow in a frustrating way like dong hoon's character in drama form.
there were a few special moments for me in yesterday's episode though. when she got called kind. jian changing little by little. the brother and nara were quite fun and i enjoyed dong hoon's arc actually? i hated the ceo and wife scenes .. tbh they ruin the drama for me like its just bare awks to watch odd angled bed scenes like????
i can feel that the moment the story unravels, it's going to be so good. I just hope they don't take so long. there are so many material already. they could give us a reveal an episode if they wanted.
that bed scene tho.
there was nothing sexy about that. 
I don't mind the CEO (and his annoying side kick) , but the wife... i just can't. she has absolutely no attitude.
she's like , playing an antagonist as a good person. Her portrayal makes no sense to me, when her lines shows that she should be a controlling character .
i'm just getting frustrated. LOL
but it's not a bad thing. I just really really really want to know what's about to happen.
ok writer, it's on your hands.
-
I'm scared to watch ep 6 and be faced with another make out section

-
I really really really think it's time for DH to be more proactive. He's such a push over. Like come on!!! I'm rooting for you.
The wife and CEO's make out section
somehow I missed that scene during the live stream I really like Nara hahaha
when she thanked the young brother for failing too. haha
Ji an is about to be evicted from her house.
Highlights form EP 5 were the gradma and the actress.
ok story, please move forward.

THERE IS TOO MUCH WIFE IN THIS EPISODE

ok, i'm going to see once and for all if it's the writer or the actress.
-
^me too.
i haven't been able to watch it and no raws yet

guess I'll make a cup of coffee (pretending it's maxim ) and eat a chocolate bread (pretending it's a chocopie) and watch ep 5 with subs

^ I need subs to better understand the nuances.
I didn’t interpret jian giving him the hint and then watching them as anything malicious but rather as a payback for the ceo to have treated him badly.
Now DH knows their secret, now he has some moral ground over the CEO (and his wife), and if he so wishes, he can use that knowledge to his advantage. He knows the reason why the CEO wants to fire him.
So yes, I also interpreted that look as ‘satisfaction’ but not with the intent of hurting DH.
But ofc, DH is sensitive , he’d probably hurt a lot before he decides to do anything.
Idk.
Need subs.

I don’t get that either. I see a sort of criticism in 23 but not with Zezé or the other songs...
Can I say what I thought the lyrics meant?
*sensitive talk|*
At first I thought Zezé was innocently talking about her first relationship, but upon a couple or reads, I thought Zezé and the red queen talked about rape.....................
That’s the main reason I got so worried during the time the scandal broke I hardly even slept.
The whole paranoia I had was from what IU said that chat-shire talked about serious topics in the form of satire...
I’m just glad that my interpretations were way off. I wouldn’t be able to deal otherwiseðŸ˜
