This is a rant.
Somehow, watching this episode made me realize how much of an advantage being beautiful is. Karina, obviously, is an extremely pretty girl.
If you look at Youngji and the staff's reaction, you can see it quite plainly. Like when Youngji herself says things like, "I understand why everyone wants to date you", "I love you, you're mine" and her general behaviour throughout the episode. The staff as well, you can see how they get very attached to Karina (even though they have no prior relationship with her, this is the first time they're meeting) and at the end they say, "don't leave".
This is the way of the world. Appearance makes you very likeable and desirable. How much would an average-looking, or ugly-looking person have to do to elicit the same kind of reaction and attachment from people? Probably a lot lot more, years of building a relationship.
Boys and girls, the world is unfair and there's nothing much you can do. Realize its unfair and make the best out of what you've been given.
Wah, that fight between Suho and Youngbin's hyung was something else! Two fighters going at it, it was so realistic! And Beomseok coming in for that final bump was just perfect.
The scene in the restaurant when Suho feeds Sieun was so perfect, I was so emotional, I almost had tears in my eyes. When he fed that ssam to Sieun, it was the first time we see Sieun have even a half-smile, after all that he's been going through.
What an amazing, emotional first episode! Had my blood pumping at the end there!
This episode reminded me so much of myself.
But then one day, once you've faced enough of the real world, you realize that labelling yourself a "hopeless romantic" is not something to be privately proud of but a naivety that comes from understanding neither people nor love.
LKS's first individual win! Finally! Was glad to see it happen. Go Kwang-soo!
One of the most beautiful and aesthetic episodes I've ever seen. And an equally good BGM to accompany it.
Chae Soobin is making my heart ache. How beautiful can a person be?
What an absolutely emotional and heartwarming episode. There were so many highlights that stood out.
1. Jeong-suk and Dae-myung's perfect chemistry in catching the imaginary samgyeopsal.
2. Dae-myung getting emotional as it's the last day in Jeongseon.
3. Everyone being excited or embarrassed at the romantic scenes and crying at the emotional scenes of the last episode.
4. Ahn Eun-jin, the bubbly, positive ball of energy that made the whole place light up.
5. Moon-sung and Mido reenacting Maybe Happy Ending and Kyung-ho's hilarious musical.
6. Kyung-ho's hilarious interactions on a rainy morning.
It's one of those episodes that you dream about all your life and hope it happens at least once in your lifetime. Props to John Carney for making a dream come to life in film.
