Taekwang spending a night in Tongyeong, even missing school to be with Eunbi and the kids? That's some dedication right there. Lol.

 

He's not a model student to begin with lol

 

 

I can't wait to watch it tomorrow when it's subbed. Dying to know what happened. 

Based on spoilers you guys wrote without spoiler tags, I guess this drama meant to twist shippers pants about the lovelines until the finale episode. This drama ckckck, I knew it would do that since it easier to get higher ratings from twisting the lovelines. The shippers definitely can't keep calm until the end.

After seeing more Eun Byul in this episode, it's official, I like Eun Byul more than Eun Bi and she's my favorite character from this drama. It feels so satisfying to see her getting back on SY, her anger was real when she flared up over the fact her twin sis was bullied like that until she tried to commit suicide. Idk I think this episode is so great because it's full of Eun Byul who's by no means is a pushover nor a bully at the same time. It's refreshing to see someone standing up confidently. Eun Byul is sassy yes, but I love the sassy her. Let Eun Byul ends up with Yi Ahn please  :rlytearpls: If they went for Eun Bi x Yi Ahn pairing, the other two TK and Eun Byul would be left out.

 

 

On the other hand, was that all happened during Eun Byul's disappearance? It feels kinda anticlimatic and there are some more plotholes. Like why did it take 10 days for Eun Bi to be discovered at the hospital if the suicide and their identity exchange happened on the same day when Eun Byul disappeared? By now I feel like the mystery revelation becomes messier and plot holes keep appearing because the writers were too focused on the lovelines. Sigh.

Also it looks like Eun Byul being stalked thing wasn't done by anyone but all of it is only her imagination because of her guilt.

I hope they will also explain the urn, the corpse, and why Eun Byul went to the cemetery.

 

 

Oh btw, Eun Byul and Tae Kwang moment is so hilarious lol

Just my two cents. If YA x Eun Bi is the end game, the writer is too cruel to make TK x Eun Bi scenes keep appearing until the end. I'm reminded by Reply 1994's Chilbong all over again. He's exactly like that until the end. Tsktsk.

Yes but i cant help but somewhat say eunbyul maybe partially fault there...in my opinion cause she acts cold or serious to people and doesnt open up even just to ian. If i am a boy and the girl ilike is that...my feelings would probably change too seeing a girl who opens up to me and shares her problems.

 

In the end Eun Bi and Eun Byul are completely different, it's not like they only have 'open problem sharing' as their differences, and YA very well knows that. If YA does turn to Eun Bi after that it means his love to Eun Byul is shallow from the beginning (although his love for Eun Byul is emphasized so many times in this drama which made me iffy). If he truly liked Eun Byul he wouldn't turn from Eun Byul to Eun Bi just because Eun Bi is more open and warmer, especially although they have the same face, their personalities are completely different.

I hate the writers for making it that way, it's not in tune with how they introduced YA seriously. Let's go Eun Byul, you deserves someone better than YA.

I really dont like the Eun bi x Han Ian ship simply because that would mean Eun Byeol and Taekwang would have to end up alone..and what kind of bittersweet ending is that? 

I think that the writers are just prolonging the love lines because if Han Ian wasn't confused about his feelings and just accepted Eun Byeol the drama would just have ended right there

 

Edit. Oh no spoilers! Im just glad its not bad news

 

I prefer they're not prolonging lovelines and just end it quickly then focuses more on the mystery, especially it seems like the mystery revelation is becoming messier with a lot of plotholes and so do the lovelines. The writers sigh.

 

 

You guys made me really curious here. I missed the live stream, have to wait for someone to upload ep 14 (even if its raw, lol)
 

Ikr. For me, the ship is only Eunbi Taekwang now. I dont care anymore about what happen with the relationship of Eunbyul and Yi Ahn (were they really a lover? before the accident?). But I hope she wont have a hard feeling to Eunbi.

 

Thats just her personality, but she actually care about Yi Ahn. But Im not sure yet if Eunbyul see Yi Ahn as a lover or just a close childhood friend.
But if they were really in a relationship for years, I really couldnt understand why he could abandon Eunbyul for Eunbi. It means hes not loyal at all. Just because you like the personality of her twin sister more, then you easily abandon your real lover? Please Yi Ahn, go home and reflect

 

I actually haven't watched ep 14 as well, I just made it out from unspoilered things that is written here. It seems like it is what happened though...

 

From what I see, YA and Eun Byul are definitely not and never been in a relationship with each other. They're just childhood friends until now. But yeah there's that YA's so-called love for Eun Byul but it seems to be just a shallow one after all (a shallow one that has been through 10 years. It's been through years but it's shallow after all? Okay.)

I liked YA since the beginning because i felt his loyalty for Eunbyul and how much he really likes her but i didn't expect that he would ruin everything til that moment that when Eunbyul returned and i didn't even feel that longing he had. He had the right to get mad but then after that, it's like nothing happened. And now he starts to feel something for Eunbi?? How about Eunbyul then...

As for Eunbi, I hope she accepts Taekwang. I hope the 4 of them will be happy in the end

If this is true then wow the writers are ruining YA's character just for the sake of prolonging the lovelines. Although he prefers Eun Bi later I expected him to at least feel the longing he had after Eun Byul returned to his side, especially after his supposed-love for Eun Byul was emphasized so many times throughout this drama and how he's acting because of Eun Byul.

I hope it's actually better when I watch the actual episode, but by now from what I read here I feel like I'm in the verge of hating YA and the writers.

Excuse me but tbh it's so funny to see EunKwang shippers's reactions by now XDXD Tbh I laughed reading the responses.

 

If TK x EB isn't the end game the writer is indeed too cruel though. They deserve to be cursed seeing how they're stringing you guys like this lol

(and they deserve to be cursed for dragging the loveline until this point. This isn't a sole romance focused drama for God's sake)

I just finished watching ep 14, and the reaction I had was completely different with what I had when I read some spoilers (without spoiler tags) here previously.

 

First, ep 14 is an another great episode. It at least tied the mystery's loose ends cleaner than before, and there were some nice closures about previous problems already. I'm glad this episode has more mystery and closures of previous problems than lovelines. It's nice to see Eun Byul closing up her problem with Soo In and Eun Bi about leaving Love House, also TK about his dad and mom. Now what's left is Kang So Young. She's seriously so irritating until the end, but now I'm glad that Eun Byul kept getting back at her without letting her sis and herself continue being pushed down. Eun Byul is so badass and I'm so satisfied whenever Eun Byul made her quivered. Ha! That's my girl!

I still wanna see Eun Bi closing up this problem by herself instead of keep being protected by Eun Byul though. Well we might be able to see that in the remaining 2 episodes.

 

Second, after seeing this episode Idk if I want to ship YA x Eun Byul anymore, because their relationship dynamic is completely platonic from what I see in this episode. My thought about YA's love for Eun Byul being shallow still doesn't change, but it looks like it's possible that what he thought of his love for Eun Byul is only his attachment for her because he's only been close to her all of his life. So right now I feel like I'm less against YA x Eun Bi if they do end up with each other, although I don't really support them either. At this rate I could care less on who ends up with who.

BUT! I think it's possible for the ending of ep 14 to be misleading. It's still possible that the ending doesn't really mean YA chose Eun Bi. I mean, it definitely meant YA chose Eun Bi if only the medal he brought was the true gold medal he won during the competition (bring it back to the rightful owner Eun Bi said), but the medal he brought was the fake medal, the one which Eun Bi gave to him to get him starting his rehabilitation. So it's possible that what he meant to do was to return it to Eun Bi because he has cleaned up his feelings or because he has started his rehab, but then there's that TK's kiss which made him confused again. Well it's just one of the possibility.

 

So far my thought of this drama has improved again. But I hope this drama will end cleanly without too much drama.

 

 

 

Btw just a random thought, can you imagine if only the real Eun Byul was the actual recipient during those times when YA started to make moves on Eun Bi (when he thought she's Eun Byul)? I think if only it wasn't Eun Bi but the real Eun Byul, the scenes wouldn't be as romantic as when it's received by Eun Bi. I mean seeing YA x Eun Byul dynamic in ep 14 gave me hints already. Some of YA making those moves on Eun Byul scenes would end up as funny scenes, because Eun Byul would be questioning what's wrong with YA and why he's different etc (but it can remind me of Yoon Jae x Shi Won of Reply 1997 though).

Yi Ahn x Eun Bi all the way, they clearly like each other. He's clearly falling for Eun Bi's warm, caring and bright personality and Eun Bi has always been fascinated by him for being so friendly and open, with her even admitting she would have really appreciated having someone to lean on like him in Tongyeon.

 

At least I know for sure I do not want Yi Ahn x Eun Byul (it feels only Eun Bi x TK shippers want that coupling as a leftover or to get Yi Ahn out of the way tbh). Eun Byul clearly does not deserve him. You don't just disappear and fake death to your 10 year long best friend just to reappear like nothing happened. He also didn't seem to be very high in her list of priorities after she came back. Also interesting how her friends had to point out how he never did any wrong with her, whilst she pretty much toyed him around.

 

I do have to say that I get why some people are divided as for Eun Bi's otp, Taekwang is a nice character and a good friend. I am upset at the writers though for doing the story a disservice. Not because of the pairings themselves but because of the character developments (or lack off). Why do they need to make the male leads use more man-handling than they should or suits them? Why are they making Taekwang hold on to Eun Bi and still try to express his feelings when she has clearly rejected him? Why did they kill any development in Yi Ahn's character and storyline by mostly giving him minute-long shots of introspection and confusion for the past 5 episodes? *le sigh*

 

I don't know why people keep stereotyping and generalizing like this. I started shipping YA x Eun Byul ever since Eun Byul made her comeback, but as I stated many times, I, never do ship EunKwang. So your theory is wrong, it's not like only YiBi and EunKwang ships that matter geez. I originally started shipping YA x Eun Byul because their dynamic is interesting, though recently I'm not sure anymore whether I want to continue shipping them or not. 

 

 

About Eun Byul, yes Eun Byul was wrong for approaching YA like that when she just made her comeback. Eun Byul should have made a gentler approach in letting YA know that she wasn't dead. But then again I'm not surprised at how Eun Byul made it known to YA since it's in tune with her character. From my take, it seems like Eun Byul was taking her friendship with YA for granted and didn't really think YA would be that affected (which made me more sure that Eun Byul didn't know YA's feelings for her). Also it seems like Eun Byul and YA often fought like that in the past and Eun Byul was too used to that, which is proven by them making it up so quickly near the end of ep 13. It seems to be frequent occurrences for them. Perhaps because it's the first time we actually saw them fighting and making up so quickly so we haven't been used to that. (I find that moment is interesting and pretty cute though). But with that being said, I'm not saying Eun Byul was right for doing that. She should have paid more care to the people around her and step up so that she can improve herself.

 

But, I disagree for Eun Byul not putting YA high in her priorities. YA is the second person whom Eun Byul deliberately let know about her comeback and spilled all the beans. Also, Eun Byul kept asking YA and worrying about his wounds, his rehabs, and his swimming thing. It's not like she did that just once or twice, she did that many times. For a cold person like Eun Byul, that surely means something, that she at least sees YA as her precious friend and cherishes him more than she lets out.

Yes, I admit to it being a generalisation and obviously there may be other people wanting Eun Byul x Yi Ann together but by looking at a wide range of comments in OH + DB + Viki what I saw was that the most common reference to Eun Byul x Yi Ahn in the past weeks came as an after-thought in comments that were first and foremost making allusions to Eun Bi x Tae Kwang. You might have seen differently, but that is the most common pattern I saw. So yeah, though it is a generalisation, it is not a totally baseless one.

 

Well, Eun Byul only actively revealed herself to her mom and Eun Bi. All the other people mainly remained clueless because they never understood from the start that they had been in the presence of Eun Bi and the ones that did discover either overheard or had to piece it together by Eun Byul's behaviour/vague discourse. Also, only Tae Kwang, Yi Ahn and SoYoung knew about the swap, so talking about order of discovery doesn't say much: of the people knowing, only So Young did not discover before, for obvious reasons.

 

Of course if you see it from how small the pool of people who know is, it might not mean much, but the fact that she lets YA knew deliberately and spilled all the beans soon after still remains. Also the other facts that I and other people have mentioned just previously also showed that Eun Byul definitely puts YA high in her priority and important people list. So just because you don't see the relevancy of the fact that Eun Byul letting him know deliberately soon after, doesn't mean the other facts don't exist.

After I read some posts at another forum, they kinda gave my hope back for Eun Byul x Yi Ahn. I'll just quote the post here:
 
 

Well, to me YA wanted to return the medal she had given him back, since he is started swimming again... as a sign he can do it on his own. If he had any intention to confess his affection for her, he would have given her the other medal, since the latter represents his heart. That's why I don't think, YA is confused at all: he likes Eun Bi and he showed concern but when TK answered his questions, he was pleased with it. It was enough for him. He loves Eun byul. I have the impression that YA was taken by surprise because TK has taken the initiative to show his love, whereas YA has never stepped up for Eun Byul. YA and Eun Byul are to blame for that: both are afraid to bring their relationship to the next level. Actually, many reproach Eun Byul to be distant and rough, but YA hasn't never clearly confessed to her either: he also left their relationship in the dark... [/size]

Quoted from bebebisous33@soompi

 
My comment is: now that I think about it, besides the medal thing, I think YA's eyes when he saw TK's kiss at that time didn't really look like that he's shocked his loved one was kissed by another guy, but I'm not sure if this thing was due to NJH's lack of acting expression or if it's meant like that lol I hope it's really like what she said.
I also think his actions before TK's kissing scene don't exactly mean his changing heart for Eun Bi. It can be interpreted differently like what she said, because what I had in mind was similar with what she said when I watched those scenes.
If YA never changes his feelings for Eun Byul or just shifted a bit, I still hope YA x Eun Byul to end up together.

Hmm...

At this time, I think hes more unpredictable than Eunbi. If Yi Ahn still love Eunbyul, why he didnt bring both medals with him? Eunbi and Eunbyul live in the same house.

Also, before he ran to her house, he had thoughts about both girls. But his thoughts about Eunbyul was that bad moment, out of all 10 years of memories with Eunbyul, he thought about that one bad moment.

And when he thought about Eunbi, he thought about how Eunbi expressed sweetly that she care about him.

 

Boy, you surely are unpredictable. I guess your teenagers hormone exploded now, lol.

 

But as weird as it is, this actually could happen in real life. But the result is totally unpredictable, depends on the person.

Good memories of a sweet and caring girl (Eunbi) vs 10 years worth of memories with Eunbyul.

Which one will you choose? lol

 

There's another speculation that he actually brought two medals at that time and what he's about to do might be not like what we perceived him to be lol

 

Now that I think and I think about it, and also after rewatching some scenes from ep 14, I think the writers are trying to mislead us and the end result might be not the same as we thought or what it potentially appears to be in the cliffhanger.

 

My reasons:

1. one of the reasons why my response after watching ep 14 was pretty different with my previous responses when I just read the spoilers were because, except the cliffhanger ending and the flashbacks, I keep getting the vibes that YA's heart wasn't shifting to Eun Bi as we thought it to be. His conversations with TK, Eun Byul, and Eun Bi made me keep getting the vibes that he cared for Eun Bi in a platonic way, and the closeups and the flashbacks were done to confuse us. 

 

2. I just rewatched this scene when YA and Eun Byul talked in a cafe, and there's this time when Eun Byul brought up about YA not knowing about Eun Byul's school issues, and then Eun Byul asked him again if it's also the case for Eun Bi. YA answered yes so nonchalantly, which doesn't reflect a reaction of someone who likes and is longing for someone else that has been away for a while. Then he proceed to say "Lee Eun Bi must be happy. She has a sister like you who totally has her back." The way he said this sentence also doesn't reflect he has romantic feelings for Eun Bi. I mean, usually when you like someone, when the one whom you like is brought up into a conversation, you're referring to that someone as the one who's more important, as in that person is the focus. However when YA said that sentence, he placed the importance more on Eun Byul, which gave me a vibe that maybe his heart never shifted in the first place, especially looking at how he said those words so smoothly. Idk if you get what I'm saying or if I'm reading too much into this, but this is the vibe that I got.

 

3. In that very same scene, in the end Eun Byul said "Now that I've come clean to you, I feel a lot better." Then YA was like thinking about something after hearing that. At first I had no idea what he was thinking at that time, I don't think it's related to Eun Bi either especially after hearing the sentences he said on that scene. But then a thought crossed my mind which matched coming clean context: maybe he considered to come clean about his feelings to Eun Byul at that time. It matched the moment and also the vibes I kept getting from him on that scene.

 

4. Considering all the things I've said about YA thinking of Eun Bi as friend vibe, it feels like a discord if in the end he wanted to confess to Eun Bi. So I watched the flashbacks of Eun Bi and Eun Byul in the end again. Eun Byul's was about the deck moment, and then Eun Bi's was about helping YA in any way. Then a realization hits me: he might be considering to confess to Eun Byul at that time, and was considering to ask Eun Bi's help in case if it doesn't work out. If we took it this way, it all matches, YA's thinking about coming clean thing previously, and then the expression in his eyes when he saw TK's kiss. When I replayed it again, YA's eyes really didn't look like he's jealous or in shock like someone seeing someone he liked was kissed by someone else. Then I tried to interpret it another way taking my previous speculations into account: he's stopping seeing Eun Bi was busy with a private thing and was disappointed he couldn't ask for Eun Bi's help at that time nor confess to Eun Byul since if he would he would have to trespass TK kissing Eun Bi scene.

 

 

I might be reading too much to this I know, but I don't care, it's all or nothing. I wrote all of my speculations about it anyway, and I'm fully prepared in case if I'm wrong and the ships go another way.

I really hope Eunbi will go with Taekwang cause they are just too cute together.

Yian can go with Eunbyul because they suit well anyway. Both Yian and Eunbyul are cool and Yian loves to disturb Eunbyul. I find that super cute.

 

Taekwang is the only one who really recognise Eunbi from Eunbyul and he's ALWAYS there for her also. 

 

Now that you pointed this out, it's true that YA loves to disturb Eun Byul and it is really cute. Perhaps that's why YA kept noticing Eun Bi's difference with Eun Byul, because when he bugged Eun Bi like how he usually does like his hobby, Eun Bi didn't give the expected reactions (that YA loves) from Eun Bi. The reactions out of the usual Eun Byul most probably are the ones that YA loves and obviously more used to, that's why he kept bugging Eun Bi at how different Eun Bi was and even pointed out constantly that she should react like this and that and she's not like usual Eun Byul.

 

Ugh I'm saying something like this made me ship them even more and made my hope for YA x Eun Byul possibility getting bigger.

haha, sorry Im not trying to sink the ship. I actually want Yi Ahn and Eunbyul to be together, too.

 

While Im agree that Yi Ahn likes Eunbyul's reaction more, theres one side that he likes from Eunbi more.

When I was watching ep 14, Im trying hard to relate myself to his character. Then I think, maybe he likes Eunbi's sweet and caring side. He often expressed his needs, saying "Do you really care about me at all? Do you really think about me?" and Eunbi is the one who can fulfill his needs more. It is possible that he likes Eunbi's personality more.

 

But like I said earlier, its not like Eunbyul didnt care about him. And Yi Ahn himself, as her close friend for 10 years, supposed to realize that. Thats why I said, for him, its like a battle between 'short but sweet memories' vs '10 years of memories'.

 

I really cant predict which one he will choose, lol

 

Okay I'll put some more of my analyzing result here to respond.

There's this scene in the beginning of ep 14, after Eun Byul getting back at SY, Eun Byul walked away with YA following her while looking at her fondly (giving a vibe my Eun Byul is truly back lol). Then Eun Byul crudely asked him "What??", and YA proceed to ruffle her hair while saying about her bad temper (again with a fond tone), after that Eun Byul got his hand away from her hair also quite rudely. But after all of those rude reactions from Eun Byul, YA's reaction was totally like usual and he's not even annoyed by her even one bit. If he's too used to Eun Bi and liked Eun Bi's milder reactions more, he would probably need some time to get used to Eun Byul's rude reactions again because it's been a while or might get annoyed on top of that. But at that time YA just responded like usual calmly and even still looked at her (or treated her) fondly. Tbh this is one of the reason why I think it's still possible YA never had a change of heart from Eun Byul at all. Even if you counted the time span from the beginning of ep 14 until the end to have a change of heart, the time is just too short and like I said, even in near the end it doesn't really look like he changed his heart much. 

 

Second, I replayed the scene when SY questioned YA about whom he liked more and the reason why he ran out from the meet. But this time I tried to have a different interpretation considering I also had a bugging feeling about it before. And the different interpretation matches the scene better imo.

My different interpretation is: YA looked troubled at first when the meet thing was first poked around because he didn't want to make Eun Byul felt troubled or guilty that he ran out of the meet and injured himself because he saved her sis. YA might think Eun Byul might feel troubled because YA saved Eun Bi and injured himself for the sake of saving her sis, especially after Eun Byul questioning about his shoulder that much, so he didn't really want to disclose it. Then SY proceed to ask more: who is the one he truly likes, Eun Bi or Eun Byul? Looking at his facial expression after that question, he didn't look like he's confused nor troubled at all. It looks like he's already fully aware on whom he truly likes (which is Eun Byul since he never had change a heart in the first place). After that he glanced a bit for Eun Byul and looking back at SY to respond the question. Imo the reason why he took a glance at Eun Byul because he hasn't confessed to Eun Byul officially and he thought Eun Byul still didn't know he liked her, so he didn't want to confess for her yet in that kind of situation and told SY off. Even when he told SY off, he said it firmly, so it convinced me more that he didn't really hesitate about whom he actually likes in the first place.

 

Okay I might sound delulu but the thing I just wrote above is another reason why I keep feeling bugged that somehow it doesn't look like he's actually shifting for Eun Bi like some scenes suggested it to be. It's up to you guys how to take this.

Yup, Im totally agree. If theres anything which could convinced me more for Yi Ahn x Eunbyul, that would be the 3 points you mentioned.

 

Yea, lol.

 

Actually its a little bit hard for me to explain my posts before.

Basically, what I said in my previous post was only a little result after I tried to 'analyze' Yi Ahn's character a little bit.

See the difference between Taekwang and Yi Ahn:

 

Yi Ahn: Hes not afraid to express that he needs support and attention from someone he loved (which is Eunbyul, but he also expressed it to Eunbi when he still thought that Eunbi is Eunbyul). When Eunbi said that she will support Yi Ahn with everything she can, that was the most touching moment for him.

 

Taekwang: Hes more of a protective guy. If he felt that the girl could depend on him, that is almost everything he need. He himself doesnt want to express that he needs support and attention, the reason why he didnt call Eunbi when he was sick. But ofcourse, he became more addicted to Eunbi after Eunbi came and show her support and attention.

 

So, based on this, the ideal type of both guys (personality wise) is actually the same person, Eunbi.

 

But like I said, Im not sure about Yi Ahn's feelings. Even if Eunbi is his ideal type, but if his love for Eunbyul is stronger, then he will obviously choose Eunbyul.

 

 

I think wanting to have support and attention from the loved someone isn't an ideal type at all, it's a normal thing. I'm sure everyone want it that way including you and me. It's just Eun Byul isn't someone who expresses her love in an obvious way but it doesn't make Eun Byul isn't YA's ideal type. All Eun Byul needs to do is to step up to express her love more clearly to YA. 

 

YA knows Eun Byul is someone who's like that from long ago, but he also knows Eun Byul isn't completely cold either. But it seems like he accepts her anyway and he overlooks that from long ago. Of course it would be lying if we said he didn't want more attention from his loved one Eun Byul, but just because someone pays more attention to him and is more open to him doesn't make that particular someone his ideal type. And just because Eun Byul doesn't care enough for him and is cold also doesn't make Eun Byul doesn't fit his ideal type 'mold', because 'craving for loved one's attention' isn't an ideal type in the first place. Just because someone pays more attention to you doesn't make your heart shifts right away if you truly likes someone.

 

Idk if I get the message from your post right or not though.

Craving for loved one's attention, is one of his strongest needs. (atleast its different from Taekwang, bcus for Taekwang, that need is still there in him, but repressed).

Then Yi Ahn's ideal type, is the one who can give and show that to him, a sweet and caring girl.

 

Ofcourse, he knows that Eunbyul care for him, too. But Eunbi expressed it more clearly to him. I think thats the moment when Yi Ahn started to have a little feelings for Eunbi, too.

 

But yea, Im always agree with what you said. If he truly likes someone, then doesnt matter if he met another girl which more fits with his ideal type.

 

For me too, if I love someone for 10 years, even if I met another girl which more fits with my ideal type, it doesnt make my heart shifts right away.

 

Thats what I need to confirm in episode 15, lol. I hope he really loves Eunbyul that way.

Just adding on a bit.

Although it might be his strongest needs, all of it is useless if it doesn't come from the one whom he loves himself. If I'm craving for my loved one's attention, although other people shower me with more attention, it won't appease my craving because it doesn't come from my loved one. All what matters is the source/subject where the attention comes from. (lol I totally sound like a poet right now).

 

However like you said, I wanna see in the next episode whether he truly loves Eun Byul or not :)

Don't mean to rain on everyone's parade, but some of these predictions and interpretations are reaching. (and long so I kinda stopped reading after a few posts)

 

So, Yiahn runs in the middle of the night just to go to Eun sister's house just to give Eunbi back her medal...? He wants to ask help from Eunbi to confess to Eunbyul? He already knows that Eunbi likes him (the scene with her speaking outside his hospital) so he wouldn't ask for her help knowing that.

 

Imo, the only way BiTae will happen is Eunbi's feelings for Yiahn were not really the feelings of liking someone, but because he was so kind to her. After the kiss, she realizes that. But even then, I feel like Eunbi's made it clear she likes Yiahn.

 

I'm for either couple, but I'm still predicting BiAhn or no couple at all.

 

Don't wanna say more because ya'll are set on AhnByul and BiTae, but just giving the opposite pov.

No actually the hospital scene couldn't be interepreted as a confession scene alone, and Eun Bi didn't seem like she confessed at that time. It could be taken in a different way, like the reason why she's there it's not because of her guilt but because she actually thinks of him as her precious friend, so if you take it this way YA didn't know that Eun Bi liked him (if she ever likes him). If she did mean it as a love confession I don't think YA took it that way either. At that time considering the timing and everything, do you really think that Eun Bi made a love confession? That thing isn't clear in the first place, and considering the situation I think her intention as a friend is placed with more importance. Everyone was too caught up with shipping thing so everything is interpreted in a romantic way, but considering the situation at that time, if only Eun Bi ever liked YA that way, I don't think she meant to confess or think about love in that kind of situation, so did YA. Just pointing out another POV here.

 

Of course I know I sound reaching for my previous posts, I even said it several times too, like I said take it however you like. I just want to point out, in ep 14 I keep feeling that some scenes and expressions are off if I go with the interpretation that YA switched his heart for Eun Bi at first, only after that I bother to point out why did I feel off, and tried to go with a different interpretation to see how it goes, and it somehow matches better. And if this drama does aim for the surprise element I don't see why they won't make things confusing for viewers and making the obvious ones as misleading bait. They've been doing that for some time so I'm not surprised if they also do this in the end.

 

But like I said take it however you want, I'm not forcing my opinion here, and am just putting it out there as one of the possibility.

I feel like Eunbyul is out of this "love square" or they would have fit her in the last scene somewhere. Looking out the window, behind Yian witnessing the little yian/eunbi/taekwang scene…I don't know!Just somewhere in there so that she and whatever her feelings are would be taken more into account. Ever since her return they haven't shown a scene with her alone to really show that she's still very much a part of this little love festival going on. Why didn't they show a scene of her contemplating Sooyoung's question or something similar? We've still got literally nada from her since her return romantically towards Yian and we're going into the last week.

 

They emphasized the medals. The national one represented Eunbyul, but in the end Yian chose the medal Eunbi gave him (which I'm translating to Eunbi being the one he likes). Why would the writers/producers make it so dramatic by having him making this "big decision" and running towards the twins' house just so that he could give it back? And then have him witness the tkxeb scene and have that shot of his hand loosening and the eunbi medal dangling from his hand? so dramatic  :lol:

 

also, correct me if i'm wrong, but yian and eunbyul were never in an actual relationship so no, eunbi wouldn't be stealing her sister's boyfriend. i don't know if it was here that i saw that comment or the other forum but nope. yian was never eunbyul's boyfriend.

 

 

 

another thing.

 

what happened to the pictures or video that sooyoung and her little minions took of eunbi behind that curtain? do you guys think that they could possibly have her use that as her last little terrorizing method by releasing it?  :omg: i mean…poor eunbi if the little witch releases or threatens to release it.  :cry:

 

I think Eun Byul's feelings is made to be seen so subtle in ep 14 as one of misleading bait. She might show more in the next episode if she does like YA. But when SY asked the question to YA about whom he actually likes, the way Eun Byul looked at YA at that time does look like she's bugged by it though.

 

 

I totally forgot about the video. Then in the last 2 remaining episodes SY will show that video as her last card then.

The hospital scene can be interpreted as a confession scene and Yiahn could've taken it as a confession. You're right, Yiahn could've just taken that as "wow, she must think of me as a precious friend." but he could've thought different too. I feel like that point of the writers having him stand next to the door was so he could be aware of what she really thought him as.

 

At that time and place (and after what he said to her) she wasn't purposely confessing to him, but she was just saying her true feelings. She started liking him because he gave her unconditional attention. How was she suppose to know he was next to the door? It was an unintentional confession imo. Which happens a lot in kdramas. It wasn't directly a "I love Yiahn" confession. Not even about love. But, I think Eunbi is aware that she thinks of him more than a friend.

 

Also, you mentioned if Eunbi even does like Yiahn (you said "if she ever likes him"). Which I thought was a pretty obvious thing.

After Eunbi's reconciliation hang out with Yiahn, she comes back and Taegwang is gloomy from meeting his mother and fighting w/ his dad. (This is a side fangirl note, but has his cool lines when Eunbi asks him what he was thinking and he says, "I'm not thinking of anything. I'm looking at you right now. Why would I need to think about you? I just do that when I don't see you."  :ahmagah: ) Okay, back to my evidence. After he says those cool lines, Eunbi stops him and says "The thing is.." and Taegwang says he knows. He knows because of it, he doesn't have a chance (TK: "I know what I say won't make a difference"). And why doesn't he have a chance? Because Eunbi likes Yiahn  :rlytearpls:

 

I also think of the surprise element this drama tries to go for. Which is why I'm not completely sure about my YiBi prediction because anything could happen. At the same time, I'm still pretty confident about the YiBi or no couple ending because of all the hints the writers have been leaving behind (I've started seeing them ever since ep 8, after Yiahn says "There are times when I like the Eunbyul now more."). Your deductions were a bit too reaching for me, but nothing against your opinions nor am I judging you. I want to add another point of view so ppl reading this thread aren't just stuck with one majority opinion.

 

About Eun Bi saying those things outside of hospital ward, what I want to point out is not Eun Bi wanting to confess to YA deliberately, but what I wanted to say is, even though Eun Bi said those things outside of hospital ward unaware of YA's existence, it can still mean that she did that because she cherishes him as a friend, not out of guilt. When I took the situation at that time into account and after the shock she's rejected from YA and the guilt of injuring YA because of her, I really don't think that's the right time for her to embrace/mourning on her budding romantic feelings at that time, especially considering Eun Bi's personality. That's why I think even if Eun Bi really does like YA in that way, that moment is most probably not a love confession.

 

 

 

Actually what made me analyse these things more and try to read more than what it seems to be is, I think the writers often leave things pretty ambiguous throughout the story on purpose especially concerning the lovelines, so that things can be interpreted in many different ways and made viewers keep speculating about it, then might surprise the viewers in the end because everything is actually not like what they originally interpreted. I'll give some of the examples of those ambiguous things:

 

- the sentence Eun Bi said that is left hanging when she's outside of the hospital ward "But I didn't do it because of guilt...." while crying, but she never finishes her sentence. What she meant can be interpreted in several different ways not only in a mainstream, most obvious one

 

- when she rejected TK and was about to say her reasons, TK completely cut her off then proceed to say "I know everything already" Everything what? That she only sees you as a friend? Or that she likes YA? Or both? Do they even see things eye to eye about that 'everything' which has never been said? It's never been clear but of course people jumped to several various conclusions based on how they interpreted the previous ambiguous scenes about Eun Bi's feelings. I think unlike what most people said that Eun Bi was about to say that she likes YA, there's still a possibility that she was about to say that she only sees TK as a friend without bringing up YA thing (which made another confusion whether she actually likes YA or not, which is another ambiguous thing). If the writers wanted to clarify that she does like YA or not, why made TK completely cut off Eun Bi when she's about to say it? This is totally made on purpose. The writers might have other intentions why they did this.

 

- Eun Bi's feelings for YA. The writers seasoned this couple with romantic hints here and there but I'm not sure if they mean to say they have feelings for each other for real or just want to stir things up. I read that there are some other speculations that Eun Bi is that attached to YA because YA is the first person who's nice to her and her first friend, and her attachment can be easily misunderstood into love (whether by Eun Bi herself or by viewers). Eun Bi's feelings for YA is also never made clear by the writers so you can't shake off that speculation completely either. Also, the reason why I keep getting mixed signals from Eun Bi regarding her feelings to YA is because, despite the notions of romantic hints here and there, what she said to YA or regarding YA, almost all of it is completely platonic. Even on the last 'date' when they went to Namsan Tower which is a place that is notoriously famous for dates, what Eun Bi said to YA, all of it was completely platonic. YA didn't even look at Eun Bi like how he used to look at her when he thought Eun Bi was Eun Byul at that time. So I myself not sure whether she actually likes YA that way or not. My speculation so far is, she might have an inkling of feelings for him, but she mostly sees him as friend. But of course, I still keep myself open for other possibilities

 

- YA's feelings for Eun Bi, which I already explained in my previous posts on why it is ambiguous and how it can be interpreted differently

 

 

 

So what I'm saying is, considering how this drama has left quite several things ambiguous concerning the lovelines, it still opens other possibilities other than the mainstream interpretations. If it were another drama I might not be reading into it too much like this, also because other dramas are more clear about clarifying those ambiguous things. But since this drama is still so ambiguous about those things until the end, many things can still be interpreted differently. So right now I'm currently pretty open to more unexpected possibilities that's about to happen or how things are seen. I wrote this long ass post for people to be more open and consider more possibilities too.

She wasn't embracing her romantic feelings, but more admitting "hey i do feel sorry and u do look pitiful, but thats not just it. i also like you." she was merely answering his argument of "if you just feel sorry and i look pitiful to you, don't even bother" And I kinda emphasize the part where she doesn't know he's actually next to the door, cuz in korean dramas its the perfect time to accidentally spill out your real feelings (most of the time admitting interest). When she was talking, I already predicted the Yiahn was behind that door. 

 

 

 

- many kdramas leave the love lines ambiguous. most of the time, there aren't even direct confessions and one minute they express their interest for each other in a completely indirect way. And her words can have different meanings, but the most i'd ever predict is "cuz you're a really good friend to me" or "cuz i've started to like you"

 

- and really? does it really make sense that Taekwang might have meant he knows for sure that she considers him as a friend so he has no chance? She's cried on his shoulders because Yiahn kept ignoring her, not because of her excessive friendliness to the point where he knows he's friendzoned. i would contribute him cutting her off because it adds to the drama (Also, this "you don't have to say anymore. i know u like him and not me." is used very often in kdramas). It makes it heart breaking to know that Taekwang already knows her feelings. Despite knowing that, he still came to her house. 

 

- It def did not look platonic(their date) There was even a part where he pulls her in and gets her out of the way of these cyclists. why would writers add that scene? Also, watching the scene again, the two look pretty content riding that dual seat bike, especially Eunbi.

 

But I do agree on your point about Eunbi's feelings. She may have thought her feelings toward Yiahn were something more than friends, when it was just really cuz he was kind to her. Its one of the reasons why I think TaeBi is possible. One of the very few. 

 

- Yiahn's feelings for Eunbi, I'm more of 90% he def likes her and 10% he just liked her company in his days of need. But, c'mon TaeBi kinda started out like that. Taekwang was living w/o his parent's love and only had his help until Eunbi came along and showed her the same care she shows to everyone which made him fall for her.

 

 

And lastly, while I think this drama is very interesting and has a way of keeping the viewers curious and wanting more, I don't think its very different from other kdramas I've watched. It still is pretty predictable, but the absence of clues and foreshadowing is what makes it hard to figure out the mysteries. 

 

You kinda missed my point here.

The reason why I'm writing that post in the previous reply for you, not for us to argue like this. Not for you to argue with my points like this, because if we were to argue of course people are going to use the most mainstream interpretation on how to interpret those scenes, the most obvious ones based on what they interpreted before, though fyi even the most mainstream and obvious one can still be argued otherwise, because I've seen several posts in other forum that can debunk that theory without making a plothole. Just see, you and I have different interpretation on what happened outside of the hospital ward, and I doubt we will ever see eye to eye on this because what both of us are saying are all speculations and we have our own interpretations. But I'm not trying to really argue on those points. What I'm trying to say is, although some scenes have pretty mainstream and obvious interpretation on how it's going to be taken, it still doesn't debunk the other possibilities completely because on how ambiguous it is, and because there are some ambiguous scenes leads to another ambiguous scenes, the ambiguity is getting bigger since along that line people's interpretation can be varied even more.

 

So my stance on the whole thing right now is not that I'm trying to reject the most mainstream interpretation on how things are seen, but while I'm accepting that the most mainstream one is possible, I'm keeping an open mind for other possibilities because they're still possible to happen, because the actual scenes are pretty ambiguous in the first place. I'm writing that post to point out the different interpretation possibility to people because the scenes are ambiguous in the first place, though in the end of course it's up to you guys whether you want to be fixed on your beliefs atm or not, whether you want to take in and explore the other possibilities or not.

I DEMAND EVERYONE TO VOTE IN THIS POLL

 

http://onehallyu.com/topic/183598-school-2015-what-will-happen-next-after-episode-14-writersgonnagiveuseunkwang

 

Just joking. Please vote your opinion in there. :)

 

I'll just put my thought here. I think when TK kissed her, seeing how Eun Bi soon grasped on her bag lace on that moment as if she's nervous, that sure will make Eun Bi's heart race. After the kiss, I think Eun Bi will be too taken back while looking at TK saying goodbye to her, and her heart will beat faster even after she enters home. She will keep being reminded by that moment because of that.

Imo after seeing Eun Bi's reaction at how she grasped her bag lace on that moment, from then on I think TK - Eun Bi's chance is getting bigger. Also the upbeat OST during that moment doesn't make it seem like it's their final moment.

 

 

This is coming from someone who's pretty indifferent about EunKwang until now.

If it wasn't your point to debate (not argue, cuz no hard feelings) then you could've just said what u said in this post lol You started giving examples and my original point was "these predictions are reaching and here's why" so of course I'm gonna debunk them. Very few actually sounded possible to me which is why I was trying to rule them out, but keep on w/ your interpretations then.

 

My reasons on giving examples is just to show that the scenes are ambiguous in the first place and how it can be interpreted differently, it's not that I'm trying to argue that with you, especially because our reasons to support those arguments perhaps are rooted from another ambiguous scenes and another different interpretations, and if I were to argue those things with you, it'll be really long and endless. That's why I don't really want to argue on those things.

And what I was saying is not to make my interpretation nor the different interpretations I pointed out is the most right, my purpose is that to just show other possibilities. While I fully acknowledge that perhaps the most obvious and common interpretation might actually be the right one in the end (if it's ever confirmed), I'm still keeping an open mind to other possibilities. That's what I'm saying. You all can take the other possibilities however you want.

considering how u first replied to me, i thought that was your intention cuz that was my initial intention (saying how some of them were reaching and why) but lets just stop now lol 

 

_____________

 

 

 

So I've been looking around the Who Are You instiz and gallery pages and these aren't 100% sure yet cuz I stil haven't got a hold of the original source (I got them from instiz, but the spoilers actually came from the school 2015 gallery).

 

SPOILERRRR.

 

 

.

.

.

.

one last chance, there are spoilers ahead!

 

 

 

Sooo from what I've gathered

 

- There will be a big reversal.

- The bully bitch reveals Eunbi's video (yes... that video from beginning episodes)  :>_>:  :>_>:  :>_>:  :>_>:  (Someone commented: "With that head, how do u get ranked #1" lol)

- (I'm assuming this is after seeing the cheek kiss) Yiahn turns around and leaves. On the way, he meets Eunbyul.

- Eunbyul starts to realize Yiahn's feelings.

- For the ep 15 preview, there is a text that Yiahn texted to Taegwang and he reveals his feelings (literal trans: heart)

 

Again, take these w/ a grain of salt until I've actually found the source.

 

This is the instiz link I'm getting these from: 1, 2

 

PLEASE CREDIT IF TAKEN OUT.

cr: gotyournose @ OH

 

 

 

 

 

 

edit: Added 3 more spoilers.

 

The spoilers are pretty interesting. I'm curious on the source as well.
