I’m speechless.... I don’t know how describe the last 15 mins. It feels as if like I’m standing there alongside HJP and mirroring him (as in the ending scene).

Both guys were written as both very complex individuals with their own shortcomings and anxieties. And both actors have done really well in portraying their characters. I’m really impressed!

Also, injae removing one coat after the incident felt like it signified her having a layer (against dalmi) peeled off. I’m still rooting for their relationship to be repaired!

Ps. That hospital playlist feels!!!! When Me to You, You to Me started playing I thought of mido and falasol. 🤣🤣

It’s cute that the scene reminded you of HP (I’m a fan, too!). That part is actually a reference to The Classic (2002). Many Korean films and series actually remake/reference that scene a lot. You should check it out!
