Hello! Like all of you I’m missing Kyo too!
Re: her English, I think it has improved since DOTS (altho she had fewer english lines in Encounter, I believe). Wish we can her hear speak english more. I think her accent is very cute !

@dukesa1122 lol yes, that’s my thing. No matter how good a drama is. That’s why it’s so hard for me to get invested in a drama/tv show because I know it’ll end someday and yet here I am.
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring down your mood, chingu!
I’ll still hang around this thread and wait for the director’s cut dvd, should it be released
SpoilerAnd wish upon all the stars in the night sky that our onscreen OTP will get to work in a drama again someday
———————————
By the way, someone posted several pages back that the song “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz reminded her of our OTP. It came up in playlist a while ago and OMG it suits Jinsoo perfectly! I wonder if the writer is a fan of Jason Mraz lol, what with the reference to stars and all. Here are the lyrics
SpoilerWhen I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?
Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find
'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up
I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, I'm still looking up.
Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking upOkay. This has become another totally random post.

@dukesa1122 I will soon, but it just won’t be the same you know? This drama turned me into a greed monster. A greed monster who is now starving but knows will never be fed again. LOL, what an analogy.
Maybe it’s time to slowly move on but how??
PDnim, what did you do to us! How can you cast two stellar actors with explosive chemistry and just give us 16 episodes? Hmm?

Highest rated cable romance/melodrama? That’s great!
It’s all too quiet now. I’m not used to this. I wish I can watch the drama again for the first time
Don’t mind me, these are just withdrawal symptoms lol

Man, the Jinsoo withdrawal is real y’all
I need something...anything!! Lol
Echoing what some of you have said, while the ending is satisfying and beautiful, I wish we had more happy screentime in the finale with our OTP before bidding them farewell.
Not holding my breath for any new material in the DVD but I hope the universe surprises me, hee.

Random thought
I just realized that Congressman Cha’s release may be just around the corner, making his prison sentence a little over a year
The ending scene was winter 2020. So if they were to go to Santiago/Spain during the second quarter, that would be around spring to summer. I highly doubt JH would’ve asked her to marry him if her Dad won’t be around. So yeah, it smells like a spring wedding for the two

She must’ve been so touched by the love and support of everyone!
We all know what she had to go through since the announcement of the drama (loads of naysayers and bashers). She is very brave for taking on the role and we love her all the more for it!
Oh my, I remember JH had a line to SH. “Thank you for being brave”
@rosiepeonie188 hugs to you, chingu!

@leedonghaek I love how the second kid was like “get out of the way!!!” LOL
But I believe this scene was made for a reason. I believe JH and SH will have kids of their own in the future that’s why it was so neatly followed by that sweet proposal

The group photo in Cuba includes the dancers too... how nice of them ^__^
But true I believe there are more unseen footages
I feel it in my bones that there are!

@dukesa1122 that would be an interesting debate too! 1 year into the relationship...hmm...LOL
I feel you too with the drama's ending, chingu! I mean, our thread has changed its title. I only noticed it now and got hit by the feels of sadness again. I was lurking here since "upcoming" and joined during "current"
What I loved about the snow kiss is it felt so raw with passion, love and longing! I can't quite put my finger on it but they just kiss differently from any other onscreen couple I've seen.
Now if only someone can zoom in those zoomed out shots of the kiss.- 5

1 hour ago, roshzanna said:Why am i having this perception or interpretation on their convo on the stairs , the last scene... that they are already married?
When they are talking about ham and kimchi, Santiago, being newlyweds, the presence of the 2 children...
Then, that shot focusing on Jh hand with the ring, but Sh cover her's with her other hand. I tried to zoom the ring, it is blurred but seems to look different.
I haven’t seen the fully subbed episode but I saw this part
While I don’t think they’re married, because that proposal by the stairs is the sweetest thing since sugar was discovered, I do believe that maybe they are living together?
When he said something along the lines of “Do we have some ham?” then they talked about cooking.
I know it’s a trivial line but it kinda gives me the vibe that he lives in her place or at least stays there from time to time. Lol
Altho didn’t the mum also say the she is running out of dishes to cook for SH because she always comes over. Again this could be interpreted differently
Oh my, this is the next great debate after the “Did They or Didn’t They? The Cuban Balcony Mystery” LMAO

28 minutes ago, htk9207 said:Regarding the ending, trust me I really imagined it would end in the Cuba garden as well. Until I realized that just like in the movie Notting Hill, the playground ( it's a special bench inside a private garden in NH ) holds a special meaning for the couple. JinSoo met in the playground right after JH started working in DH hotel. It's the place SH went to when she was sad and missing him. They spent time there apart and together. So it was just befitting that when they finally reunited it was at the playground. The writer wonderfully showcased how ordinary happiness could be so special. Even the ending showed them simply walking together. Like any couple in love, doing ordinary stuff together. Cherishing the time they are together is what makes it so special. ❤
I figured as much. The playground scene was so beautifully done, with the snow and background music. The kiss was so beautiful too. It’s like everything came full circle. I’ll remember it for years to come. It hit me right in the feels
And yes, ditto on ordinary happiness being so special. It’s very true and relates to everyone, regardless of age and social status!
@dukesa1122 just the thought of no new still cuts, filming pictures and episodes is driving a truck through my fragile heart.
How can I ever move on? I feel like I’m gonna go through the 5 stages of grief, starting with stage 1...
1. Denial
“No, it’s not yet over! You see they haven’t announced anything for next week yet. What if there’s an epilogue or a special episode???”
Then I’m off to...
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance
I’m full on drama queen this week! Sue me!

"Best of all - no freaking time jump! Soo Hyun figured out that she couldn’t live without him and then they were together again. Done. No drawing the break up out over years. The time jump happened after they were together. AFTER. Take note writers!"
Agreed! I think I would've rolled my eyes so hard if there was a time jump before OTP got reunited although I'd still end up loving it coz I'm just that biased when it comes to SHK. Lol
Thanks for sharing the review and the gifs, @Jemrie
Same!
If the time jump happened during the break up then I would’ve raged so hard. Time jumps during break ups and the subsequent rushed reunion after are unbelievable for me because feelings change over time. That’s just how it works
Anyway, glad they used the time jump wisely here, oh thank you drama gods as this was my biggest fear. I have several questions tho before hibernating soon!
1. How long is Congressman Cha’s prison sentence?
More importantly...
2. Will we ever see that Santiago trip in our digital screens, not just our heads?!! (You’ve teased us TWICE, PD, TWICE )
Finally...
3. Will I ever get over the fact that my prediction for a Cuba ending in the garden of love didn’t happen?!! (Seriously, that was ny prediction since episode 1 LMAO)

[Drama 2018-2019] Encounter / Boyfriend, 남자친구
in k-dramas & movies
Posted
Since I’m feeling sentimental these days...
Where did this scene go, PDnim? You owe me so much explanation, I swear! Was this really a scene? Or was it supposed to be one of the posters? So many questions!
Maybe I need to go to Cuba to get over this drama and come to terms with what I’ve lost LMAO
