+ Jung-woo is great. I love his whole attitude. I love how smart he is. Also him casually leaning out of the way as Hyun-soo almost crashes into him was very cool and hot.
+ I love Jung-woo and Jamie. Their interactions are interesting and sometimes fun and sometimes weird, and I just really like how they are around each other. Them equally willing to ignore how they make the others uncomfortable and cause speculation about their relationship amuses me.
+ I like Jamie's OCD tendencies. The crosswalk clapping scene with Jung-woo was fun, I was amused by her getting caught up in cleaning the elevator.
+ I am curious if this show is staying a cop procedural or if the slight hints of something more going on means the show could go in a mystical/supernatural direction. Could the three kids of the Village have super powers? Those that died all seemed to think they weren't in reality at that moment. Is it because they were used to doing that sort of thing in VR/lucid dreaming or was it because someone was messing with their minds?
+ Hye-won's violent tendencies can be both funny and side-eye worthy so I've been struggling to decide how I feel about them and her. They are so over-exaggerated that they often come off as very anime-esq, and so because of that I think that I've ended up coming out finding it mostly funny despite the show as a whole have a more grounded/realistic feel to it. I'll have to see how her violence continues to show itself and how it is treated in show.
Like her kabedoning the cyber crimes tech and intimidating him as she worked through her Jung-woo feelings was hilarious. It being a reoccurring situation with the poor guy (though with the previous being her beating him up and less funny) feels like it could become something like a comedy sketch if it happens again.
Her threatening talk over Lee Ji-wook - "If someone doesn't like me for no reason I should give him a good reason." was hilarious! Made me laugh.
But on the other side, while her demanding that Jung-woo disregard rank for a minute and then badgering him into agreeing amused me, her ending that scene by punching him in the face and walking away did not. I am not impressed with people turning violent against the object of their affections when jealous/angry. The fact that they aren't in a relationship, aren't even flirting really at this point, that there is no "claim" or understanding there makes it worse. What the fuck are you doing, Hye-won? That is not okay! It makes me really want the show to not go in a romantic direction with them.
+ Hye-won grabbing Jung-woo by the hair and dragging him back up after he went over the railing was great. Him doing that without warning was really unfair to her and he deserved that bit of pain for being so inconsiderate.
+ It really is hard to feel bad about the deaths of people who are genuinely terrible people where them no longer being in the world seems like a net positive for the world. I'd still be mentally cheering the killer on except for the fact that they exploded Son Min-ho's home killing a bunch of people who were simply doing their jobs.
+ Speaking of, Son Min-ho's protection really could have been better. Why was he left alone in a room when the time hit? Hell, why was he even still in that house when it was named as where the death would occur? That was just dumb.
+ Jamie's reaction to the lollipop makes me very curious about what exactly is in them. Is it something that affects the kids of White Night Village more than they would any other random person?
+ The one scene between Hye-won and her parents that we've gotten was really sweet and I liked how they interacted with each other.
+ 'You have to lose your family to realise what's most important' yikes don't jinx yourself like that!
+ They absolutely could have done more to save the professor. When Jamie wanted to rush in that is exactly when they all should have rushed in and tackled him.
