it would have been really interesting if the writer had explored how hard it was for SR to let go. instead, it was like she got the same cold bacteria amnesia from HK and just moved on....

 

Hahahahaha!  A good one.  So funny how you put it.  Not sure if there is cold bacteria but it works for me.

[chubbychub1966]

Here is a rough translation of when HK and JE are eating steak together. Sorry if it's a bit off... Cr. Vietsub 

0:15:41-0:18:41

HK: Are we really almost geting married?

JE: This isn't like we're married?

HK: Just take? Like this?

JE: Huh? You want me to propose? I said I've already returned the ring. What's so important about it? What's in our heart is most important. You're not choosing the ring over this crazy man right now are you... *JE changes the topic* I grilled this steak really good.

*HK chewing and looking at JE disappointed and angry*

JE: It's keep melting in my mouth. This is the perfect taste. It's so good! What time should I come tomorrow?

*HK still angry*

-Scene Transition- *HK sprays febreeze on JE*

HK: Turn around

*JE turns around*

HK: Stop. *HK gives JE his jacket* You should go. 

-JE about to leave...-

JE: Oh! Give me what you owe me.

HK: What are you talking about?

JE: Why are you giving me that face? The promise we made in the sauna. It's mine. Give it back. *JE closes his eyes* I really want it, hurry.

*HK kisss JE*

*JE stops*

JE: I am sorry, let's stop. If you're like this, I can't go to the company BLAH BLAH BLAH (sorry didn't really understand this part). Because of you, I am going crazy. I'm leaving. Tomorrow, ok? Tomorrow. *JE leaves*

[seungshin]

Chingus, it was too early for me to live stream with you but just finished watching EP 50 raw.

No YK, WJ or Dr. Min but there was Yoo Ah In, our SeonJae from Secret Love Affair!  YAI seems to be everywhere these days.  The movie they (JE, HG and mom) went to see is 'Like for Likes' which premiered in Korea on Feb 16th.

Until the EP 50 sub is complete here are some highlights I didn't see in other recaps above:

. at the beginning In front of the spa, DHG says 'a woman’s hand bag is her pride' JE responds by saying' a man's woman’s hand bag is the man’s pride' (I have no idea what this means it sounds too deep, for early morning).

. when they were picking up clothes to go into the sauna DHG says you will look funny in these clothing, to which JE says 'I told you I’ve worn them before' (did DHG really not see him the last time?)

. When the spa lady says you need to leave all your valuables, JE asks to confirm what she said and then tells her he will need to leave his wife with her (uh, how sweet)...

. JE thought 10 whole minutes (to change) was too long a time away from DHG....

. HG says JE looks like ajussi, JE says he is an ajussi, 'you will cry a storm when I am a grandpa!'  She jokes about him having no teeth and he jokes about her having to pick up her cane in their old age

. JE couldn’t/didn't crack an egg on HG’s forehead because he didn’t want to (physically) hurt her

. BS and his assistant were working on proving forgery re: JE's father's affidavits (this was not resolved, does this not implicate JR?).

. HW visits BS to say HG and JE are finally getting married and that BS will be asked to be a witness for heir marriage registration

. BS agrees to be a witness after thinking about it for a long time when they were drinking beer - he asks out loud 'if he didn't do it who would/should'

. BS and his assistant get home and she asks the taxi driver to go back to the office and back again so BS can sleep some more since he probably couldn’t sleep tonight. She knows what he's going through.  The taxi driver says no he's busy, BS asks the assistant to take the taxi home since it's hard to get one in the neighbourhood, she gets off anyway 

‘ I like you, probably because you are still pretty’ (this is what the waterboy said to SR), this caught my ear even though I don't care much about SR - I will have to watch this part again because it sounded very romantic the way he said it - power of Korean language with its in between the lines meaning - and it somehow foretold his long term commitment to her .. I know that's hard to tell from English translation of this.

. At the dinner table, JE's Mom tells JR to go abroad with the kids - JR says she can’t when MTS is here, mom says he got life and he is not coming out 

. These two have real sweet conversation here - JR says she doesn't want mom to move to Buamdong - mom speaks about how she is more concerned about JR than JE these days and JR finally calls her mom (but will JR be punished?)

Marking the times of their love: the theme of EP 50:

I don't know if you guys caught this without the sub but you hear DHG's voiceover throughout EP 50 - she was marking different times like 4pm, 7pm, 8pm and ends it by saying 'the time we loved/love'.  Those were times, when they were talking, eating, cooking, watching movies, fighting (JE got jealous about HG going to work of BS) and crying over their daughter ES, or rushing around in the morning to go to work - and sleeping soundly passed the alarm.  Those were times they loved.  I guess this was the writer's expression of love that love is not anything grand but two people sharing life's moments, good, bad and ugly.  Giving themselves to each other.  

BTW

. I love the look of Korean books - interesting the bookshelves in JE/HG's old/new house remained empty the whole time and now they are filled up - the empty shelves were prominently featured when YK and WJ lived there - now they are full - are they big readers? - I suppose it's another form of closure for the writer - the full circle

. Oh those Korean apples, so big, juicy and sweet at the end - nothing like Korean apples a size of child's head

BUT NO WOOJOO !!!  Oh well. Once again, I've learned to surrender to writers at the end of series for my own mental health and well being.  Cheers.

lol... ....

its weird that SR just got tacked on a love interest at this late stage. it is not like any of us felt bad that she was alone. did the writer? it would have been really interesting if the writer had explored how hard it was for SR to let go. instead, it was like she got the same cold bacteria amnesia from HK and just moved on....

 

These are the gaps and holes that presented a problem for me. There was no real exploration into the emotional turmoil that the characters had to go through in order to make the decision of forgiveness --they didn't really go thorough the different stages of grief.  I've always felt that the writer changed her story and I think that's why some characters were written very well with a solid story around them and others not so solid and a lot of going back and forth and at times in circles and contradictory.

I felt the writer really never knew how to reconciled this couple so she just made it happen. After going throw the real life drama of mayhem on the set of CITT where the PD deleted scenes of the lead from the drama and replaced them with the second lead (one episode the lead is in it for only 6 to 8 minutes), it just confirms for me that where there are gaps in a story that began with a strong solid base, then something was happening behind the scene. I'm not a fan of Netizens, but after witnessing first hand what happened on CITT, I want to join them. They are a powerful group when they get behind a cause.

All that being said, I hope I see the actor who played BS in another drama. He was my favorite character, if not a little pathetic at times.

February 28, 2016 --- Sunday ---LATE Afternoon.

I'm in serious "denial"!     Read only p.708.  Went away. Now starting with p.715.  Only because I don't want to miss all the "farewell Posts".  I have a general idea how it all plays out in the end.  We have had hints. Viki at 8% ---Don't think I can take seeing it "raw" first this time!

I'll read from p.715 onwards --- saving Episode 50 until the very end!  Like I save up the dessert for last!  Then it will really be over!

@seungshin --- Hello! and already Goodbye!     Yoo Ah In? Really?  Our "Seon Jae"! ---"Be still, my heart"!    I always remember them & can never can forget "Seon Jae" ---Keeping  an eye on Yoo Ah In's works, but decided to take a "pass" on the 50 episode drama, "Six Flying Dragons" until later! But looking forward to seeing Kim Hee Ae (aka "Hye Won") in "Mrs. Cop, Season 2" following IHAL on SBS.  Not a "deep" drama but very enjoyable!  I knew she'd make a great Detective--- Thought YAI would do well being with her in such a drama.  Oh, well --- maybe far ahead, a future reunion project!  Thank you for all the "previews" in your post ---Now I'll enjoy them even more later.

Had to smile at the photo of  MTS actor and JR actress --- striking that famous "sharing the music at the wall" pose!

And when Hae Gang sprayed Jin Eon with "Febreze" (?) --- I remembered how once he did the same thing to remove her fragrance!!!  I quess Writer Bae put lots of little "parallels" into the last episode!

My Goodbye to Everyone who followed this forum together. Thank you to all of you!  It's been a       wonderful and memorable experience.  I didn't realize it' been 6 months!   Time passed so quickly.

I've edited my 'regrets' with this:

- that BJW wasn't recognized for her role as JR (but am glad her performance caught the eye of a biggie agency whom she signed on with. Chugai!)

 

@jadecloud,  ooooh.. That makes me super happy. I hope we see her again soon, in another wonderful and challenging role... Which is the agency, please?

WHAT A KISS!!!!

 

I was so sad I missed that moment this morning...  And so glad that @chubbychub1966 caught it with gif...

Here are the stills for it. You can see that in the beginning HG is sort of resisting a bit. As soon as she put her arms around him, he stopped it. What a tease he was..

Before anything else, I would like to thank you Lovers for this awesome thread. It's one of the best threads I've ever participated in, so kamsammida. 

@irilight, thanks for starting this thread, you've done a superb job in keeping things going smoothly here and you've been active till the end. I admire your efforts and I'll look forward to seeing you at the other threads. I do see you and @andy78 at the Signal thread, so till we meet again?

@jadecloud, @Lmangla, @chubbychub1966, @trust71, @Kehinde, @tiMadam, @DelroyB, @andy78, @mdj101

@deandraluv, @ihyw, @iamtaken, @my2centsworth, @thegoldbug, @Kfan7172 and a lot more, I enjoyed reading your posts!

@gerrytan8063, @seungshin and @lenetthanks for your invaluable translations.

@myonenonly - chingu! I'm glad to see you here. I hope all the Sunnies are okay. 

@lclarakl - even if you've dropped this drama, I want you to know that I liked how you fearlessly defended your views. We got a happy ending, too bad we didn't get to see little WJ, YK and the good doctor in the end. It would have been awesome if they made an appearance. 

As you may well know, this is the first 50 episode drama I've ever watched, I'm glad it turned out well. Like most dramas, it isn't perfect but it certainly drove home the importance of constancy, communication and trust in a relationship. HK and JE may have had it bad as a couple with all the hoops the writer made them jump through, but their epic love carried them over every hurdle. 

I'm now a Kim Hyun Joo fan and I'll be on the lookout for her future works. I find her so charismatic and talented, she practically stole every scene, wait...she's almost in every scene! Lol. I wish she was given the Daesang for her work in this drama. Ji Jin Hee, I've liked him since Take Care of Us Captain, it would have been great to see his work recognized with an award but Koreans didn't really like him in this role and the poor guy valiantly waved off the onslaught of negative publicity. A cheating husband just doesn't suit his stature as a revered actor. 

I will probably give my other insights when I've finished watching the subbed episodes. Thanks Lovers, I loved hanging with you guys.

Hope to see you soon in another forum......bye for now.

ADVICED JR TO LIVE ...JR ASKED JE MOM  TO LIVE TOGETHER CALLED HER STEP MOM FIRST...NOW FINALLY CALLED HER MOM

 

9 hours ago, maplekist said:

they are now coming to terms and she started calling her omma... finally!

wow.. that is so huge for JR!  Finally SH got to her, that she is sincere with her advice and wishes for JR.   I remember SH gave her some advice before, about living in the present and getting rid of the anger and hate, and finding love within herself.   (In some ways, the new HK has become a role model).  JR had called SH mom once before, when she wanted to sneak TS into the house. Clearly that time, she was not sincere. Now, she is. There is hope for her....  (and maybe if there is hope for her, there will also be hope for TS)

They both seemed to be keeping their emotions in check until almost the end of the visit....  Maybe there is hope for him/them yet...

She was keeping a brave facade until he tears, and then is taken away..

 

[Guest my2centsworth]

The end has come.......was a great drama. Had it's disappointing parts but as a whole a very lovely love story. I have tremendously  enjoyed this drama and coming is here and enjoying everyone's comments. Sorry to say good-bye.....so I won't.....I am sure I will see many of you in other forums in the future. Best wishes to all and hope to see you soon. Good-bye to the wonderful cast and crew of I Have A Lover. Hope to see many of you in another drama in the future too.

wow.. this is huge for HK.. We all remember that in the beginning of the drama, JE was wanting/needing for HK to express her feelings about ES, and she could not. She was like a stone wall... She too, has come a long way.


 

[mdj101]

Hoped to see a photo of Park Han Byul, catching the Bride's bouquet!  But alas, only a photo of the flowers in this article.  Maybe later articles will cover it!  The actress was such a good sport playing the Seol Ri, the woman we "loved to hate"!  Always felt bad about fans maybe treating her badly!

I truly going to miss HK and JE amazing chemistry. I'm going to miss this thread with all the intelligent and well written comments that made this drama even more addictive each episode

 

I am with you on this one, @drmjs , @lgreg2720 and @Lilly58   This is my first drama with Kim Hyun-Joo, and I will for sure go back and look at her other works. Probably will start with either "Twinkle Twinkle" from same scriptwirter, or "Cruel Palace."  Ji Jin-Hee I have adored ever since I have seen him in "Dae Jang-Geum" (still, one of my favorite Kdrama, and one of the very few I have watched again and again.)

I  also hope to see more drama in the future with both Baek Ji-Won (JR) and Kong Hyung-Jin (TS)

I will miss this thread too, with the incredible camaraderie, and amazing insights and contributions by everyone. The drama we watched was about the power of love, and this thread actually embodied heartness, day in and day out.
 

 

 

[deandraluv]

(I decided to post three posts, instead of one: random thoughts on ep. 50, Personal reflection, and my last words)

Random thoughts on ep 50:

-I think it was a very good and satisfactory ending, IMO (It would be perfect if there were the twin babies and big family reunion).   Like  @seungshin   said,  I guess this was the writer's expression of love that love is not anything grand but two people sharing life's moments, good, bad and ugly.  Giving themselves to each other. (Love it!) It was no grand ending but just a portrayal of real marriage couple going through their routines, enjoy each other’s company, fight, make up after the fight, grieve together and laugh together.  Marriage life is not a-happily-ever-after-life.  It is not all rosy, green and shiny.   

-JE and HG scenes.  What can I say?  I love all of their scenes in this episode.  I think their chemistry is hard to beat by any other OTPs in other dramas.   The eye stares and loving gestures….I really hope they meet again in the future.

-JE & HG scene in front of their house.  It’s another parallel from the scene when HG brought the wine, JE missing ES before they fought.  This time, it was HG who missed ES so much and JE comforted her.  Had they done it back then,  they wouldn’t have gone the long and tiring road….But then, it was all for the better. 

-JR & SH scene is heartwarming.  JR wanted SH to stay at their house, SH made me tear up when she said, “I have dementia”.  It is a nice reconciliation between the two.

-‘I Have A Lover’ actually fits in the characters in the end: MS-YK, JR-TS, BS-SJ, SR-the new guy, and most of all, JE-HG.  They are not perfect couples but they are lovers. 

@jyfan88  Thanks for the translations of the scenes….It made the scene so cute and sweet…..

i'm glad that you came back and give your final insight regarding this drama.....

you always defend BS all the way to the end...but at least BS find happiness with SJ  and the writer didn't cut him off regarding his scene...unlike DR.MIN and YK scene.

@seungshin  sorry for the late response....thanks for noticing me at DOTS forum...yes...lets spazz their sometime...hope that what we share their will be appreciated....IHAL forum member they do appreciate whatever your comment ....either they agree or disagree...
