iaria• Poor Joong-won, this was a pretty terrible episode for him. He learned that Secretary Kim has been lying all along and then he leaves, he learns he loved Hanna and she was innocent and died to protect him and then Gong-shil rejects him.
• I get that Gong-shil is terrified over the idea of Joong-won getting hurt again and so she's running away as fast as she can but it's a little frustrating all the same.
• "We will renegotiate once I stop staring at myself in the mirror to find an other appeal that I can offer you." LOLOL.
• I loved that little moment where Joong-won gently caress Gong-shil's hair as his hand rests on her shoulder.
• I find that I'm actually rather annoyed with the whole Jin-woo reveal because I love it and here they are throwing it in with only two episodes to go. I mean the story of Jin-woo and Gong-shil is enough to be their own drama and at the very least he should have been the secondary male lead who proves to be an actual contender in the love triangle. (Sorry Kang Woo, you're sweet and you have a lovely friendship with Gong-shil but it was never happening even way back at the beginning, even ignoring the whole secondary lead situation.)
Gong-shil's ghost went to Jin-woo for help, he saved her life, she spent three years as a ghost with him, travelling the world, and he clearly fell in love with her. I want more of that story! Why did she stay with him? Did she fall in love with him too? What adventures did they have? I'm also left with questions like: why did she return to her body, and why didn't he track her down at any point in the years since she woke?
Probably the next episodes will answer some of that but I'm so bummed that we didn't get that story. Imagine if he'd shown up at the halfway point instead? Gong-shil choosing between Joong-won (who is her safe haven that takes away the ghosts, who she's falling for and who is falling for her) and Jin-woo (who sees ghosts with her, who loves her and who she perhaps used to love). Present vs past. It could have been so interesting!
• I can't believe that I didn't foresee twin shenanigans as soon as we learned that that there were twins involved. When we got that Hanna/Hee-joo flashback it was such a huge 'duh' moment. It seems so obvious in retrospect. I really liked how this whole Hee-joo/twins/kidnapping storyline ended.
• The Secretary Kim/Joong-won scene was so sad. I just want them to make up. Especially now when they both really need someone to lean on (and both loved and lost the same girl.) Joong-won was so happy to see him back, it's unfair.
• The whole contract with Madam Go plot ended really abruptly which felt a little weird. What the heck did he offer that's better than someone who can see ghosts?
