Just watched ep 14 with subs. OMG. LOL. Okay, I admit that when i watched it raw and mini subbed clips, I was kind of like WHAT? CCG STILL NOT DEAD? I was irritated with the direction it's moving.
But now, I'm ok. I feel better after watching the subbed version. I do think RJH planned out capturing CCG with being 10 steps ahead. Sounds like he is due back to NK in a week, which makes sense.
Love the ducklings and their spying/listening in on the family. Hilarious.
RJH and Seri showing wound scene - OMG LOL. I wish the kiss was longer, UGH LOL. Will we ever get a proper kiss? So thoughtful of RJH when he packed groceries and recorded the piano for her to listen.
My thoughts on the next two episodes:
- RJH and CCG will be caught by the NIS and investigated. This will probably be a joint NK-SK effort to transport them back to NK. Well, CCG will be. I think RJH will be ok However, he would probably be the one to escort CCG back just to make sure he is punished and doesn't run loose again.
- Our leads will see each other one last time - before they separate.
- While apart, they will handle their own business and wrap up loose ends. RJH to take care of CCG and clearing any harms way targeted to his family. Seri will wrap up things with her business.
- RJH's dad talking about bringing money into NK. Perhaps there will be some sort of investment on Seri's end which will allow for collaboration of some sort. This might mean RJH and Seri will be able to be together - I don't know how this will turn out though.
- OR, Switzerland ending. RJH pursues piano again and Seri goes there for business or travel.
- I hope that when the two separate, they will make a promise to see each other again. I don't know why they can't just agree on meeting up again in Switzerland if SK is not an option.
If I recall reading some article or was it in a drama, there is some donations/arrangements on the supply of rice bet South and North Korea?
Possibly may use these or similar kind of arrangements to cover all the happenings bet his son RJH and Seri in South Korea??

Other hints about their possible endings? They finally married secretly? Led a distant married couple relationship?
1. Few eps showed us tht both shared and knew about the pathway / entry points/secret passage bet North South Korea. They may use this in future to shuttle and be together??
2. Seri is very rich. Family owns a huge building. She even bought the houses and offered free rent and free maintainance for life shld the "local rowdies" manage to help her catch her assailants. Then being abandoned at the beach may also be another clue.
She can easily buy up these pieces of lands and set up homes to enable both to be together as often in the future (secretly shuttle in and out if South North Korea???
Seri's relationship/bond with North Koreans (soldier buddies and adjummas) is so close, I am pretty sure their connections will continue in future.

I am still quizzing abt Seri's strange parents;
1. Father looks still young and healthy so why all the fuss of handling the company to his kids? Kim Soo Hyun appeared very briefly and introduced himself as a spy so is Seri's father also a North Korean spy like him who may be recalled back home at any time?
2. Is Seri a daughter her father shared with a North Korean woman and later raised by "her stepmom" from South Korea?
3. Really puzzling a mother abandoning their kid.. but we also saw similar act in another drama "chocolate". However here both her parents are living together. From the brief scenes when the parents appeared together, we can feel their relationship appeared quite distant/strained?? So is this mom her stepmother who is aware she married a North Korean spy (loveless marriage where husband left his heart and soul back in North Korea, hahaha)??
4. Or is this mom a North Korean spy and Seri is not her biological daughter the reason why father chose Seri to take over his company?
A bit confusing but I am suspicious her "parents" may also have a secret background history attached to North South Korea just like wht Seri and RJH????

As a viewer its mind boggling having to wonder if this couple can finally be together? Is it possible? Isit a hopeless relationship?
Or unless both decided to live in that old abandoned house near the border?
I was in Jeju whn the historic event took place, the day where the South and North leaders met . Our taxi driver was very emotional relating about the conflicts between these 2 countries. We watched the live coverage throughout our journey.
Watching CLOY I understand the difficulties these lovebirds will face should they decide to be together. One solution cld be tht his father makes some arrangement to send him permanently to the South like Dong Koo??

The thread is moving so fast I cannot keep up anymore. Anyway, sharing some thoughts I have after watching this week's episodes:
~ I love that the romance is finally progressing, we've got a kiss and they have a quiet understanding of where each of them stands in the other's heart even though they may say otherwise.
~ Yay for YSR's two loyal minions who managed to get a meeting with her dad!
~ Yay for Ear for lying to his boss! So proud of him, although worried too...
~ I had wished that RJH will get to see the watch, but no, so what will happen to the important watch? That is the watch he gifted his brother, right? Well, since I am guessing that YSR is taken by RJH's dad, here's hoping the watch will somehow land in their house and RJH comes across it.
~ It's high time to show us some backstory of the evil guy. Is he just power hungry or does he have some kind of personal vendetta against the Ri family? He is getting one-dimensional for me, and I don't even bothered to remember his name yet.
~ Surprisingly, SD's mother wants to make sure that most of all SD will find happiness through her marriage with RJH. So I see her as being the person who will call off the wedding when she remembers there is another girl in his heart. And I also think that the family having a department store as their main business will come into play later on. Who knows, maybe Seri's Choice will make a launching of NK's branch in the department store? With Seri's ways of currying favors, I can see her easily winning SD's mother over to her side
then maybe they will work together to advance the fashion and cosmetics line in NK
Tht watch must hv been taken fm her by her abductors and will soon lead to those involved in the brutal murder of his brother.

Ratings episode 8 (Nielsen Korea)

31 minutes ago, Nesseri said:I've been reading reviews on CLoY from BitchesOverDramas blog and also here in Forum and I love love how the author of BoD (BitchesoverDramas) stated the 10 nice things that SeRi taught Jeong Hyeok in Episode 03 to a young tomato tree so that it will grow nicely and not wither, and she did exactly that in last night's 8th episode.
Spoiler1. Goodbye
2. Be safe
3. I hope you have a good wedding
4. I hope you have a lovely family
5. Be happy
6. Live a long, happy life
7. Forget about our time together
8. Make sure you do that
9. Ri Jeong Hyeok -shi
10. I love you
Those 10 last 'words' that SeRi told Jeong Hyeok and the last one would leave the biggest impact in Jeong Hyeok's life. SeRi wanted Jeong Hyeok to live a good life after her 'demise' thus the 10 last words.
Oh, this makes me cry again. Such a good job CLoY team!
Probably oso sending "message" indicating her leaving/disappearance has got somethg to do with his family members??

The shot could be to make JH think tht SR is shot dead so as to severe his ties completely fm SR.
Yes, I think JH brother's watch will somehow safe SR..
I doubt his father will harm SR, aft being informed by SD of SR true background. Probably hide her and make arrangements to send her home?
Next ep preview looks very sad..

thanks @alleram95 for the translation! so.. CY wasn’t abandoned in the department store.. she probably was there with her mom (and dad?) to celebrate her birthday or something then the tragedy happened, they died. she became alone..
Tot I heard she told Kang cousin whn she was 12yrs old, mum abandoned her at the department store whn she was faking dementia? When she ws trapped she wsnt calling out for her mum but her aunt if I recall?
Neway the brother reminds me of her drama "wht happened in Bali". Hope she does sthg abt him in this Chocolate.

The storyline is not too exciting.. but love to see many new faces and their superb actings.
Looking fwd to their next season.

Feel more like a happy ending.. Cuba may be the place they start all over again from the maddening crowd. Time away and being truly happy together may finally change his mama's heart??
Otherwise her father's huge sacrifice will just be pointless.

Love all the characters in this drama. Even childish lil sister shows maturity in her interactions with others.. very good acting.
Am scratching my head as pace of events are so unpredictable.

Prof Cha reminds me of the drama Mr Sunshine.. very evil character, I may be biased but he looks very evil here too.
One scene shown SeJu lying dead with a gun in his hand. He may probably be at a very high level. Maybe when JW reaches to this level only then will he be able to meet SeJu??

We a belief here when someone dies with eyes wide open may mean dying with unfullfilled wishes.
In life we see both YJ and CHS had personal/business issues. Probably when a person dies in "such situation", the programme picks up and virtually introduce that dead character into the game to continue and resolve all outstanding matters between them??
Tot I saw tears streaming from the eyes of the statue???

I had anticipated this.. went thru same ending tht left me shocked and disappointed... a chinese drama "seige in fog".. died just few minutes before drama ended!!
Real lousy feeling then.
Therefore tonite was more prepared for this sort of ending...
Aeshin an Qin Sang have almost similar personality and both finally were left alone as the men around her ALL DIED!

This episode is too sad.. really touched me deeply.. our country ws once plundered by the richard simmons too, some elders until this day still are not able to forget or forgive.
As someone commented here, the tittle "Sunshine" shld at least give us some hope of a happy ending..
....esp Ae Shin and EC.. hope they escape and leave for US.. both can still continue their fights from there?

...."The story is written with the backdrop of the 1900s to commemorate soldiers who've fought, but were not recognized for their service historically." ...
Am not familiar wth Korea/Japan history but as mr sunshine revolves around the early 1900s.. must be prepared for sad endings unless;
...Eugene "officially" marries Aeshin and sneaks her back to US as his wife... taking along the others close to them and the RA continues their struggles from there?

Too few females main cast in this drama so I hooe they keep the 3 girls alive. Hina has ties wth the Royals, her role as important?
Chinese drama "seige in fog" ending left me speechless and frustrated.. so I do hope mr sunshine does not give us same type of ending for the 3 male leads..

Granpa and JMR deserve jailtime.. both are murderers.
JBC is the most twisted in this drama... won't be surprised he take his own life and dear mummy turned into a psycho shld JBC dies. He is her everything.

NMH witnessed 1st hand watching young KPJ walked into the river.. twice..to end his life, she saved him. I am sure she understood his pains. The pains of losing his little brother.. the mental torment and life if his late mum plus the death of his foster father. He is all for family.
Whereas her father had a choice but succumbed himself to greed of "power" even sacrificing his beloved daughter to achieve his goals.
NMH will realise this.. I am sure she will finally spare KPJ.

Can you please tell m ? Is the singer for the ost played when lady Hae and lady Oh died is she the same singer who sang fox rain and fate ? Two very iconic Ost songs? I forgot the singer's name but her voice is just so unique and I want to confirm this. Thank you for answering m
Very much like Park ki Young's voice as in "only longing grows" in women's secret... Such beautiful voice.

i hope the drama ends and HS goes back to the 21st century before WS gets married to YH. i cannot and would not take it if that happens when HS is alive there. Both HS and me will be too broken-hearted!!
Just cannot imagine WS marrying YH! But they had many children together

I think the one thing that irritated me about ep 9 was the fact how distant, scared, and hypocritical Hae Soo was being toward Wang So.
If we think back, when she was STILL confused on who would be GwangJong - her eyes went from one prince to the next. Even longer on WW. So, SHE KNEW that ONE of the princes would be the next king who killed his brothers. BUT she still talked, joked, and was VERY comfortable around them. Even in a relationship w/ WW. So just bc she has confirmed that GwangJong would be WS, she acted that way. I was just pissed about that. She told him that he could trust her, she wouldn't change. But all of that broke down.
I dont blame her for acting tht way. Act of killing own siblings is somethg not any normal human is capable of doing..the shock of knowing that person must have sent chills all over her body.
I am sure she will recover fast realising she must do somethg about it somehow? (she helped wth covering his scars despite earlier being rudely snubbed by WS?)

Surfing wiki so
CP will rule fm 943-945, 3rd Prince 945-949 and Wang So 949-975.
Wang So married his half sibling - Yeon Hwa? So far we have not seen much interaction between Wang So n Yeon Hwa. (Leejin's drama corner).
HS will be involved in the 3rd and 4th 'princes tussle' I suppose when WangJo became King?

Please do not quote pics! Thanks!
Very confusing and not able to follow the plot on these time differences. But there must be some clues relating to Jung-hye and Ok-Nam (keeping dark secret).
1. When Jung-hye passed by she immediately recognised Gon? The face her late son would have had? """becos of you, Ji-hoon died""" she commented, I am not your mother! .
Late king may hv negotiated wth Jung-hye to take lil Ji-hoon to the other world (together with Ok-nam), to play as a double just incase somethg untowards happened to his son Gon (crown prince)? And it was lil Gon tht the uncle killed and the switch was secretly done by Ok-nam?
Gon is actually Ji-Hoon?
So if Gon travelled back and saved the late king and lil crown prince.. he may then be free to come back in year 2020 and lives a normal life in the Republic with Jung-hye (his biological mum) and Tae-eul?
