The popularity of CLOY is really PHENOMENAL!
While grocery shopping at a neighbourhood supermarket, I was pleasantly surprised when I heard the lovely ost "Flower" being broadcasted by a local Mandarin radio station after the broadcasting crew kept raving about how GREAT CLOY is!

That scene at the DMZ is EPIC!
While watching it live, I told myself it was only a DRAMA but I just couldn't stop crying. Even rewatching it with subs bring tears too. Kudos to both HB & SYJ for their brilliant acting. The cinematography was eye catching, appropriate & memorable!
I'm sure the DMZ will immediately be an ICONIC TOURISM SPOT for tourists. I'm glad I was there in June last year otherwise bookings will be difficult as you need a conducted tour there.

Only wanted to share a quick thought...
Didn’t you love the scene in the woods with the bad general (Just before RJH’s dad appeared),... MB was ready to protect RJH, then JH changed positions to protect him. But then his men were ready to protect RJH (they surrounded him and made like a wall with their bodies!) WOW... I was already crying and seeing them doing that... ahhh my heart!
At that moment, my live stream died on me and I screamed because I thought ONE of them will be shot dead!
Which is what I feared from the beginning. I always think the writer needs to sacrifice a popular character just to make the drama more realistic.
But in the end it was SJ (who died needlessly) who was sacrificed and not 1 of the ducklings or MB.
A bittersweet but otherwise awesome and realistic ending to a lovely and well written drama indeed!

So the 34.76% of us got the ending right after all!
I think it is the most realistic and credible one.
I LOVE the way JH surprised her after she landed. Did he also teased her by reprimanding her in a cheeky way?
I'm wondering how he knew about her wherabouts. Did he befriended that senior NIS guy or her stepmum could have helped him? Or was it FATE again?
Whatever, as I'm more than pleased with this ending!

My stream crashed too!
So my guess about JH pursuing piano playing in Switzerland was true. He did say that in ep 13!
Wow!
She is still paragliding in Switzerland and he came to reprimand her! Heee!
Did they plan to meet or it is another coincidental meeting?
They are indeed FATED TO BE TOGETHER!

I can't believe MY EYES when JH pointed his gun at his temple!
Whatever CCK revealed about his dad must have made him so devastated that he wanted to end his life without thinking about SR!
Waiting impatiently for the subs now to find out about it.
Luckily the NIS stopped him ON TIME!

is the end of ep?
Yup! Now we comrades are getting frustrated. It's always the case for a cliffhanger of an episode just before the final one.
But KEEP CALM as CLOY is a romcom. Surely there wont be a sad ending.
It's a matter of where and when they'll be reunited.

AS EXPECTED!
They always give an EXTREMELY NAIL BITING CLIFFHANGER for the episode before the last episode just to arouse curiousity and raise ratings!
All we had is JH standing outside the ICU looking desperately at SR.

Thanks to the kind NIS agent who must be a shipper of SR& JH, JH rushed to the hospital as SR is in a critical state.

It's so heartwrenching to see JH run after SR and regretted what he'd done to her.

WTH!
JH and his COLD reaction towards SR by even raising his voice at her and she left and fainted outside the interrogation room!
I think it had something to do with what CCK told him about his dad's past which made him wanting to commit suicide! (It must be something shameful which made him acted like what he did to SR.)
So he's now resorting to NOBLE IDIOCY!

So happy to see SR's stepmum comforting her at this trying time!

Not surprising that JH will be interrogated by the NIS. It's only a formality by the NIS to do so. But I hope his dad wont have any repercussion from the N Korean authority given the sensitive inter Korean political situations.
Happy to know that we'll be given another 2 longer ep again to wrap up the whole series.
However, I'm expecting another nail biting cliffhanger tonight just to boost the ratings for tomorrow night's grand finale!
Anyway, it's a 2 h countdown for me and I'm all ready to be watching it ALONE with full 100% concentration whatever the cliffhanger!
CLOY FIGHTING!

During the drunken scene in ep 13, when JH told SR that he WANTED TO PLAY THE PIANO with conviction, it managed to convince me that they'll live happily together in Switzerland.
It's the most realistic ending for both. JH can further practice his piano skill (hasn't become accomplished yet) with SR's financial capabilty. Moreover some of the stills of their filming in Switzerland have yet to be shown.
Although I'll take whatever the outcome for CLOY's ending, my romantic heart tells me that they'll be together in Switzerland!

Sometimes fans are so desperate for happy endings, they petitioned to the TV stations to plead for happy endings!
It's too late here for that suggestion as I'm not ACTIVE on Soompi. And I'm ONE of those who watch dramas regardless of endings! I'd rather have a REALISTIC ending than a ridiculous one! Hope the writer wont be pressurised by the fans to provide FAN SERVICE!
After watching for 14 episodes of CLOY and still enjoying every scene, I'm more than satisfied! So I"ll KEEP CALM & WAIT PATIENTLY FOR EP 15!

I rewatched the drama all over again and i am convinced about my theory of "One Korea". There are two options: 1) JH is north Korean agent 2) JH is "One Korea/Shield" agent.
1) If JH is North Korean agent it explains the ending of episode 14. NIS guy went Seri's father and told him that NIS contacted North Korean secret service to confirm CCK's identity. Who would they contact? In my opinion: RJH. Also when JH was leaving Seri's room to meet CCK at the end, he passed by NIS guy. It was highlighted with slow motion. After that both JH and NIS guy had their phones in their hand, i think JH called the NIS guy to inform him about his plan regarding CCK. (JH received SMS from his informant but it's not the only reason he had his phone on his hand in my opinion). Therefore he did not try to dodge the NIS team before meeting CCK.
2) If JH was only a North Korean agent, it would create a problem. Although JH's side could claim his agenda was only to catch a NK criminal and protect a SK woman, he is still a NK agent operating in SK which is illegal. He would still have to be questioned and then send back to NK (most optimistic case). Therefore i think he belongs to this Shield/One Korea organisation that is above NIS and NK secret services and operates intelligence in both countries. In the scene where JH was crawling in the tunnel to SK, the male voice over was speaking in NK accent (i am not an expert though, it was a mild NK accent in my opinion, i might be wrong). He was the one gave JH instructions regarding CCK and the tunnel. The title of the page was One Korea 729. As we learned from the plate numbers 729 only belongs to very high officials. So apparently he was taking orders from one of the top officials. So until now, we may say JH is only NK agent but in the first OneKorea browser scene where JH got information regarding CCK's doings in SK, the voice over this time had SK accent (again, i might be wrong). Also the second time the recipient of JH's message was only indicated as Onekorea@onekorea.co.kr. So in order to be free from all the possible troubles and questioning from SK side, JH should not be only NK agent but something more bigger. Thats why i believe he is secret agent above all.
There is "One Korea" campaign for re-unification, already. It involves all Koreans including Chinese Koreans, diaspora and so on. They focus on raising awareness of re-unification mostly through media and cultural events but here in this case, they might have a secret physical force too, why not?
To be honest I want JH and Seri to be free from all the troubles related to politics by the end of this upcoming episode which is why i want believe JH is One Korea agent. Otherwise we would have to see JH questioned by NIS, Seri questioned by NIS (to hide elite NK soldiers and NK agent). It would take so much time. In the finale i want to see mundane family time for JH and Seri. I want them to have breakfast with their twins and while Seri nagging the twins about their food, I want twins to say "일없어" just like their father
P.S. I guess i can be considered an ahjumma too And i agree with you all that both CLOY and HB's pacific ocean wide shoulders are the most realistic, enjoyable and loveable depiction of military drama and character ever for me too
Love your insightful theory about, "One Korea".
No wonder JH looked so PROUD as well as relieved when he and SR entered the chix restaurant to see the ducklings and MB supporting & cheering for S Korea's football team. Under normal circumstances, it'll be treason for them back in N Korea.
Love the way JH smiled with AMUSEMENT at the way the ducklings, MB & SR kept rejoicing over the S Korean victory!
The highlight of that scene was when SR kept slapping JH's arm during an exciting moment of the match! (It was just like me whenever I support my football team!)
@L A and the other ahjumma comrades here, you are making me feel OLD!
I'm a HALMUNI (grandma) with 2 adorable grandkids!

WOW!
Wuri JH crawled between 9 -12km through a narrow tunnel (for nearly 24h) just to get to SK to protect his beloved SR!
This is worth more than1000 kisses as I'm one who LOVES this drama to bits despite the lack of them.
Kudos to the writer for incorporating "tunnels" into this gem of a drama as part of the plotline. It is indeed very insightful for us viewers too.
During my visit to the DMZ in June 2019, I learnt that the S Koreans have discovered numerous tunnels dug by the NKorean army for infiltration purposes. The 3rd tunnel which I visited(very insightful but tiring) can accommodate a whole platoon!
The plotline is getting intriguing with the last intense cliffhanger. This is indeed an awesome drama as it includes suspense!
I'll be rewatching all the episodes and saviour all the dialouges until the countdown on Saturday and will LEAVE IT to this brilliant writer to give us a happy ending.

The scriptwriter for this awesome drama is brilliant!
I simply love the dialogues as I watch it alone (when everyone is out working) with full 100% concentration. And I DONT care about the lack of kisses. (I even loved a recent Cdrama without a single kiss to bits!)
Love JH (& Hyun Bin's expression) for suggesting to SR not to wear bikinis when she voiced her disappointment for not being able to wear them. So our JH is already showing signs of a possessive boyfriend!
@Learry when I saw those playful BTS scenes you've just posted between HB & SYJ, I felt like pinching HB's fleshy cheeks!

The wittiest scene for me in this episode is when 1st sis-in-law asked SR's assistant if JH is available for ESCORT SERVICES?
And JH was standing right nearby. As a N Korean I'm wondering if he knows anything about it!
Aigoo! Luckily we have scenes like this to EVEN OUT the sad ones otherwise this GEM of a drama wont be touted as a romcom!
Whether there are enough kisses or not, I' m loving this drama MORE than ever!

I'm not complaining about the ending as it is a very intense cliffhanger which will make us more curious for the next episode. What a torture it'll be for us to wait another week for the next episode!
So far I'm loving everything about this GEM of a drama despite its lack of skinship.
Every subplot and every character are integral parts of this brilliant drama.
I'm very CONFIDENT there'll be a TWIST to tonight's intense cliffhanger which will enable me to love this drama more!

Oh dear!
It's going to be messy for our OTP as now JH is being cornered by the NIS!

WHAT AN ENDING!
JH should have been more careful with JCK who despite being wounded was quick enough to shoot at him!
But I'm confident that he'll survive!

OMO! So I was right!

High protein diet and weights exercise regimen is very western. North Korea discouraged any western and capitalistic influence. RJH build is too obvious to be a result of high protein diet and more weight exercise. Did you see Kim Jung Un? His build shows power and wealth in North Korea. But you don’t want your leading man to have the appearance of Kim Jong Un, right? Hehehe
Just look at Kim Jung Un's personal bodyguards especially those who runs next to his limousine! I did mention in my earlier post (before page 200) that JH looks perfect as a NKorean bodyguard with his physique. LOL!
They were highlighted in some foreign press including mine for their built and a few pix of a few good looking ones were mentioned during those peace talks with Trump heydays!

Am I the only who's been wondering how on earth did JH manage to send SR the lovely flower pot? He was in NK which made it totally impossible to do so.
My guess is that compassionate NIS chief who taught JH how to send messages to SR. He's such a romantic guy too!
