He kneeled to save someone’s life. This is much different than the other times. He had to do it.
Yes. Some people are saying he didn't even kneel for his father so why would he kneel for Yiseo.
It's different.
When he was asked to kneel before, he was young. He was in high school so you know how stubborn young people are. When his father died, he didn't have a good reason to kneel. Now, however, he can lose Yiseo that's why he did kneel and it's because as an older, mature person, he now understands that sometimes, there are greater things than pride and that because for those four years, Yiseo kept on telling him and showing him she loves him, Saeroyi learned that there's more to life than revenge. This is why he's willing to kneel. He wants to date her and have a good life... something that he can be proud of and can be the reason why he can say to himself, "This is life? Well done! Again!"

Thank you! But was this taken today? They've only shot the final episode today?

Anyway here is my interpretation regarding what the writer is trying to convey regarding RY's love life. He is trying to show that the great RY is also a flawed character. His unchanging principle can sometime be detrimental to his career and love life.
Oooh I agree with this. This also shows in his influence on Geunsoo. Geunsoo turned out that way because of Saeroyi. I remember in one episode, Geunsoo said something like everyone is pursuing their goals aggressively not caring about others, so he would too. This shows that while Saeroyi's determined nature can be a good influence to some, it can also negatively influence others.

I'm currently watching Episode 14 and
Spoileralthough I understand what people are saying about the audience's blind spot - the time jump and the audience not seeing what happened in those 4 years for PSRY to eventually fall for another woman or something - I'm not that concerned about it. I'll just use my imagination. Two people working closely together like PSRY and JYS, for instance... so many things can happen. I also understand the drop in ratings because I also found myself skipping some of the scenes but I'm still hanging on because of Kim Dami and the ending I want for JYS
Here, in Episode 14, I like how the show handles PSRY's relationship with OSA. He had a free day and he called OSA because for him, he likes her. So they go out on a date and they talk about their plans. Then you can see the change in PSRY when he saw JYS. Some will say how can he change just like that, but to me it's realistic. Have you ever been in a relationship where you just go by your routine? You're in a relationship so you think you love him, he loves you, etc. but over time, you don't think about whether you love the person anymore or not, you're just together because... you are. That's how PSRY is. He's too focused on getting revenge that the part of him who needs love just froze, and so he's stuck with his feelings for OSA. Then one day, boom! He just realizes he needs something else. That's what the date scene with OSA was like for me, and I think it happens to many couples more than people think.

Like I've already watched all the stuff KTR is in.
The Handmaiden is a given but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE "Little Forest." It's one of my fave Korean films.
Someone mentioned earlier that there are 5 additional chapters to the webtoon. Is that like an epilogue? Where do we read it and does it have more Saeroyi and Yiseo?!

I love the moment when JYS started tearing when SRY said he doesnt have any feelings towards her.
YES! She's a natural born actor. You can really tell she's not there to act. She's there as Jo Yiseo.
The moments that felt sooo natural to me include the moment she was internally screaming that she's Saeroyi's first kiss, when she cried at the table after hearing Saeroyi he never liked her, then when she was saying "I love you" multiple times, like her heart's about to burst, when she cried after hearing Saeroyi say "No" that it will never happen, and then when she was crying at the crosswalk.
Her eyes are very expressive but at the same time, she doesn't try that hard. Or maybe she does, I don't know, but for some reason, I just feel like, she doesn't try too hard and just acts naturally. She understands her character really well. She controls her emotions and responses too, making her look like just everybody else, like you know, "Oh, if I were in her situation, I'd react that way too," or "I can see her responses would be the average response of real people in that situation." She isn't going overboard with her acting.
I'll be following her future projects from now on, that remake of SoulMate included Hahahaha because there are two main actors in that movie. One is reserved, one is a rebel. Based on her range, I think she'll be the rebel in the remake, and I'm so darn excited to see her play that role.

I've never been more excited to see how they'll build everything back up after last night's heartbreak and the next episode's heartbreak too (based on the preview). I like this stormy, chaotic part and I'm looking forward to seeing how they will tie everything up towards the webtoon's ending.
Kim Dami as always. Her scenes are really awesome for a rookie actor. I'm looking forward to her upcoming film remake of SoulMate, the Chinese movie. I watched it just to see what the story is like and daaaaaaang, I'm pumped up.
Hang in their Yiseo!

but he had the solo conversation with OSA on purpose, to allow the tea lady to eavesdrop his conversation and send it to KMJ to catch her off guard
I SEE! OMG thanks for this. I missed this part. Now I know. This is why I've wondered if there's something off in the translation on Netflix, because why would she react that way. I get it now. Thanks for this!

I mean all of them were shocked by his actions, so what's your point?
The point and difference is that Saeroyi and everyone on his side wanted a different outcome. Saeroyi knew JDH will likely choose Jangga, but that does not mean that's what he wanted. They were hoping JDH would choose his son. Sooah, on the other hand, wanted exactly what JDH did, which is why her expression is a little bit off.
It's like waiting for the results of a test. Saeroyi and his allies want to pass the test, but they know they will likely fail. However, they still wait with fingers crossed until the test results are revealed. On the contrary, Sooah wants other students to fail. She tells JDH that. JDH then came out with the results of the test and tells Saeroyi and his allies that they failed. Saeroyi and allies naturally feel dejected and angry because they were hoping they will pass. Sooah, on the other hand, wanted this test results, so it is a bit off to see her shocked when that's what she wanted.
Aside from that, I also agree with @ari_bian that perhaps it has something to do with Kwon Nara. I'm not one to richard simmons on people doing their jobs. Kwon Nara is an actress and after Itaewon Class, she will likely get more projects, but I agree with what others are saying here. After carefully watching her performance, my indifference towards Sooah may be because of her. She just stares in this way that seems like she has so many things to say, so many thoughts, but then she doesn't say anything. Or she just looks blank most of the time. I don't know. What I do know is if someone else was cast as Sooah, perhaps people's responses toward her may be different.
Another factor is the writing. I don't know if it's just me but Sooah seems underutilized in this drama. I was laughing my richard simmons off when in Episode 9, Sooah goes to Danbam and tells Yiseo she was there to see her. So they go inside the pub and then Sooah just stands there, just so it's visible that she was there to see what's going on in DanBam. The writer could at least have written her consistently in the drama. Sooah is ambitious and she's out to protect herself, so why not just have her ally with Kang Min-jeong in taking over Jangga? Scheming to get what she wants is in-character so why not just have a different plot for her that's consistent with what she wants instead of just have her hanging out in DanBam but not really doing anything?
Maybe it's just me but I have to say, people have basis when they criticize Sooah or other characters for that matter. Let's not dismiss these criticisms.-

I dont why but SA teary eyes while JDH spoke so apologetically fake bothers me lol.
Same. I was just about to ask. Is there something wrong with the Netflix subs because it seems like before the press conference, Sooah asked JDH to cut off his son to save Jangga right? And that's exactly what JDH did during the press conference so why was Sooah shocked? Why did she cry?

1 hour ago, Anjalifairy said:Talking about Park Saeroy's style, his agency stated that Park Seojun's styling in IC seems to be gaining popularity bcs it is a look that anyone can wear it comfortably in real life with a combination of items inside your closet.
YES! I'm a woman but I'd want to be as comfortable as Saeroyi. I also like the boots and baggy pants combo, comfy hoody. I also like Yiseo's fashion as well (sometimes). I like her "don't mess with me" look but then she'd shift into feminine clothing, like the scene where she and Saeroyi are at the bar. Her hair is tied (Kim Dami, so cute) and she's wearing a cream coat. Their style complements one another.

im not sure y people are too invested in Team SooAh vs Team Yiseo.. i hv no problem with both of them.. yes they are flawed but they are not bad ppl.. Yiseo is condescending and blunt but she’s honest and i think her honesty is what DanBam fam needs right now.. and SooAh.. girl is selfish but she is just looking out for herself..
Hahaha true! I agree with this. Personally, I neither hate nor love Sooah. She's just hustling, and I respect that because she's an orphan and that's the reason why she's a coward. Her priority should be to look out for herself, and she's doing a good job. Saeroyi respects that too that's why he always tells her that she can do whatever she needs to do even if it means crushing DanBam because Saeroyi knows he'll be fine. And yes, I'm rooting for Yiseo but I'm not excusing some of her behaviors. I'm excited to see her grow, and I have to say that perhaps 50% of my interest in Yiseo is because I like Kim Dami. With that said, I'm not interested in debating about Sooah vs. Yiseo.
The major reason why I don't focus on Team Sooah vs. Team Yiseo is because the webtoon is complete. We already know how it ends, well, some of us who read the webtoon so I think it's useless to argue about this in a divisive manner. Also, all the plot lines - non-romantic or romantic - are interesting so I'll just let everything play out.

she can only offer a mere token of subjective sympathy, from a distance
Also, she already revealed who she is from the get go. She told Saeroyi herself, she's a coward, which means she won't risk her good relationship with Jangga for him. She's looking out for herself. But I don't hate her though I also don't like her. I quite understand where she is coming from that's it and she's also redeeming herself a bit by giving Yiseo advice on how to handle Saeroyi.
Anyway, I've been just lurking but also writing my two cents.
P.S. I love the ending of the webtoon, especially whom Saeroyi ends up with.
I love the story. I love watching Yiseo grow, and just everything Kim Dami does haha. I browsed the webtoon and I'm excited to see how they would do the time jump. Overall, this is some good quality kdrama JTBC and the production blessed us with.
Also, can I just say, that Saeroyi/Yiseo scene where she rests her head on his lap and cries about his scars... it's perfection. I think it may be THE MOST ROMANTIC kdrama scene I've seen. #notexaggerrating

Oh yes! The daughter! They didn't explain that fully but I guess since Dongbaek's mom worked as a... I don't know what to call her job, is "hostess" correct? Maybe she met a man and they got married? Same as you, I'm not really bothered they didn't explain this fully.

- She wants to only communicate with her audience through her dramas, she doesn't give interviews.
- Her father is sad because he wants to brag about her success to others but he can't.
Respect! She's really talented. I remember watching Fight For My Way and she made me cry watching that too. It was the scene where Choi Aera was rejected after an interview and she was crying on the bus on her way home thinking about the other wealthy ones who got to study abroad and therefore land jobs. I love that the writer creates characters that are just like us and mirror genuine human struggles, not just made up ones just to create drama (although for me, the break up scene was just like that, I'll just choose to ignore it lol).

I think this might be the best and the most satisfying drama ending of the year. I love the "growing old together" thing!
Yes, it has that special satisfaction which is beyond watching a wedding. This drama is truly unique. We don’t get to see a montage of wedding+happily ever after like the usual, but we’re still told of the biggest wedding in Ongsan, and then a huge jump into the future instead, because of course we also want to see our little Pil Gi all grown up. I love that we can still see traces of his demeanor when young, like the way he walks and talks.
You both nailed it. Also, we know it's a good drama because it doesn't make you go, "I hope they did it like this!" or "It would have been better if it went like this." There are moments where you feel annoyed or unsatisfied, but you can let it go because the drama is just too beautiful. This feeling is unlike watching other dramas where you just can't get past the annoyance lol. The writer and director are in control and they respect the viewers that they didn't go for easy narrations or directions (See, this was my problem with HDL. I like the show so much, the characters and plot, but the delivery and some plot lines were just... lacking and unsatisfying). Yes, there were cliches in this drama, but you can tell they challenged themselves, the writer especially, to create a story that everyone would love, but also something that's unique and heartfelt and unlike the regular dramas that are created just for the sake of having something to show the audience.
Camellia easily gets into my top 5 kdramas. It still doesn't beat Reply 1988 on my list but it's in the top 3.
1. Reply 1988
2. It's a tie for When the Camellia Blooms and Because This is My First Life
31 minutes ago, 40somethingahjumma said:It's nice too that we were shown a little about how they got together and that she initiated everything.
I love this part too. YAS Jayeong! Go get him girlfriend! It's consistent with how her character was written and although Jayeong's strong personality may be one of the reasons why Gyutae strayed, I love that when Gyutae saw her red heels, he realized that it was her strong personality that made him fall in love with her in the first place. Hopefully as time passes, Gyutae gets to share the power in the relationship so they'd be fine until they're older. Seriously... there should be a spinoff of Gyutae and Jayeong's story.

Final episode. Here we go.
Favorite Scenes
- Deoksun taking care of Pilgu
-
"You have to protect the Joker." - the Captain
-
"You can come inside if you have the guts" - Drunk Hongjayeong
- Gyutae and Jayeong's dating history. Their story could be one standalone drama and I'd watch the hell out of it.
- Gyutae entering the house. Hahahahahaha Oh Jungse is the best
- Jayeong pulling Gyutae... seriously these two
-
OMG... the Captain in love with someone...
Thoughts
- Dongbaek's mom talking to Deoksun. When she said "free mom," I cried again. Did it two days in a row. I love the way she communicates.
- I love Yongsik's lines in this episode the most. He's the one leaving viewers with the best takeaways: (1) it's the heroes in all of us that make this world a better place, and (2) there are more good than bad guys. I find these good reminders considering how bleak the world is today. Dongbaek's line, "sometimes one person can be a miracle for someone" is also good. It's inspiring. All these lines taken together, we can be heroes by being a miracle to even just one person.
- I don't know how to feel about Jongryeol and Jessica's ending. On the one hand, good for them. On the other hand, I believe these two don't belong together and they need time apart and alone to grow lol
- Pilgu's ending. He could be the only 8 year old with a headache when he was younger, but after the growing pains, he's the most loved. 2 grandmas, 2 dads, a mom, a stepmom, a bald stepsister who poops a lot (not anymore), and neighborhood ahjummas looking after him.
What a great series. This is the best drama this year for me. It's unforgettable. Also, I feel like this drama has satisfied my need to watch an unforgettable and meaningful story that I can manage not to watch anything more for the rest of the year and early next year until the few dramas I'm keeping my tabs on start airing.

[Drama 2022] Yumi's Cells Season 1 & 2 유미의 세포들 - Kim Go Eun, Ahn Bo Hyun, Park Jin Young
in k-dramas & movies
Posted
I don't think there's going to be a season 3. Someone posted fancams during the shoot and Kim Goeun and Jinyoung were outside a grocery while it's raining and Kim Goeun is holding her umbrella. This reminded me of the scene in the webtoon where Soonrok and Yumi walked home together using Yumi's umbrella. I think the writers combined Babi and Soonrok's story from the webtoon so there's only going to be a Season 2.
