The preview gave me the feeling that DS will choose no one. 

Those "We're childhood friends, we've known each other for almost 20 years " conversation was about Taek because she'd known JH longer than that. So if she puts friendship between her and CT then same goes with JH. 

I can understand that but I'm still sad seeing CT crying so please not again  T_T 

 

 

Yeah, another time skip (2 episodes not enough to solve all the conflicts), hope not. The husband dated lots of girls before Deoksun.

It's strange, why do people react to the preview negatively? 

I for one take that as the most positive light that i can see for our ship. When a girl demands a guy to confirm their relationship status (whether as a friend, or as something else), that means she hopes for something. We don't know the context of their conversation, but my deduction is Taek keeping a secret (an angsty one, seeing him crying like that) from DS, and DS found out via other means, so she might be upset why Taek didn't tell her. It's usually the most common scenario of what happened if we're talking about a girl who asked "We're friends aren't we?" to other guy. But then again this is Reply, we might in for something more angsty.

At least this means there's something more from them, rather than a happy-go-lucky way to develop their relationship.

Stay positive, guys!

DS IS WEARING A SKIRT IN THE LAST SCENE

THEY ARE IN A HOTEL ROOM NOT A RESTUARANT

FOR KISS SCENE TO NOT LEAK IT HAS TO BE PRIVATE

THAT IS ALL.

and @mangachickava You right! DS is wearing skirt and they are in hotel room.. so far, I know her feeling shows in the way she dress.. she has feeling for TAEK And Taek is super nervous, looking at his finger presses down the his fist.. he's nervously waiting for what DS's want to say. ( I think DS is waiting Taek's confession).  DS trying to get Taek's definite answer to across the line.. Please Taek, DS cross the line.. and the bed is ready!

Last time I ask the show about the rest ep 2, how DS and Taek across their friendship line to Romantic LIne.. And we got the Angst!!!! It's kinda confirm that our ship is sailing!!!

Hahahahaha also i think one of SW's condition is to not smoke

Somehow I think maybe one condition is for BR to marry him...

[aixx]

Can I just say... Park Bo Gum is sooooooo good in making his eyes speak in behalf of his heart

BRAVO!!!!

[sarsu]

Lol to me it's so clear case. Taek's the husband. There's no reason to be worried, atleast I want to enjoy this moment, our ship is totally #canoeingit lol. Just lol. 

I think DS will maybe have a hard time finding the words for her feelings for taek. But I think that the last scene ( in prw) was abt DS finally coming to it, and TK was so damn surprised. Like the girl he's liked all his life, likes him too! Imagine the look on his face when he hears it, or maybe he reads it between the lines idk... But there's no reason for them to be apart anymore. So what's with this talking that DS wants to be just friends with Taek??? Lmao, she wants to be his wife. There's no way shes gonna run back to JH, she jungpaled him already.

 

happy sailing chingus.

Junghwan, from the preview seems to really let everything go, and "Why don't you guys date?", that means nothing happened between JH and DS no matter they are talking about Taek or JH,

- If they're talking about JH => DS and JH didn't date

- If they're talking about Taek => DS wouldn't think of Taek anymore if she's dating JH

if DS made no move even after JH's heartfelt confession, it's the end for their story (lol no coming back and grab the ring like some people want it to be)

I think in Bora's wedding spoiler, DS wears the same pink coat with the one on her chair in DS-Taek scene, right? Can it be this is their convo before/ after/ while waiting for Bora's wedding?.

Taek confessed with JH about the wallet, I think JH will tell him that he gave up and that Taek should grab this chance, don't waste it like him

Stay positive, guys! 

yeah ikr why so negative? smh

the fact that they discussing their feeling is positive thing rather than pretending to never know forever..
Taek being honest with JH as well.

about DR, the preview always misleading what happen might not what it seem it could be for very different reason or he just find out about SW/BR history being the only one left out since JH and DS know about SW feeling beside Taek keep secret or it entirely different matter

well i know i want to just lurking but the negativity in this thread just keep getting heavier for no good reason it killing me lol

if one thing people should learnt from JH shipper borrow some of their confidence(not the killing character or asking for accident part lol)

and the answer in 2015 she indeed MARRIED TO ONE OF HER CHILDHOOD FRIEND so people can rest assure she did pick someone lol

 

EDIT: and yessss the skirt, the bed, the 18hours filming all need to be make used dear PD 

i remember Nareki always filming in private space, room,bed or wherever so their shooting always secret and turn out awesome  

well whatever it is hope that a place they gonna have their feeling discuss properly no more denial and be completely honest just the two of them

[xnhumi]

For those of you who are still worried and uncertain,
Please read @Meliere's AMAZING post on the MT about TK and JH's wonderful characterizations by the writer (with @packmule3's detailed analysis).

I've been visiting here since the beginning, read/lurked all 3 threads, considered different POVs, and stayed skeptical/neutral to save my own weak heart ^^. But after episodes 17 & 18, the answer is all too clear: TAEK IS ENDGAME, without a doubt, like it or not.

Spoiler

Color theory, trolling clues, twists, etc.--they're all good in the name of fun (and ratings), but unless the writer REALLY REALLY REALLY wants to throw 18 episodes of her storytelling, characterization, carefully planted symbols/dialogue/foreshadowing/etc. down the drain, there is no way it can be JH without ruining EVERYTHING she has worked so hard for. And that includes all of the work she's put into trolling us, too.

Because JH is billed as the lead, I watched the drama with that in mind. For any hint favoring TK, I thought of multiple other interpretations which could favor JH. However, as TK's character was steadily developed in the middle episodes, JH's came to a frustrating standstill. I had thought the writer was simply playing catch up to build two equal contenders for DS' heart. Even at the end of episode 16, you could say that they felt 'equal.' But the pendulum never swung back in JH's favor...

In fact, it swung in TK's favor as we were finally shown DS' own self-developed feelings. Episode 17 showed that without any action from either boy, DS has TK in her heart. Episode 18 confirmed that even with JH's raw and awfully heartfelt confession, DS is unmoved in liking TK. JH has cried bitter tears, owned up to his faults, and gracefully bowed out of the game...and here we see the writer's intention for JH all along: he was never meant to be developed as DS' final love.

Viewers everywhere felt frustrated watching JH and his lack of development--but his "lack of development" is a character development in itself. I believe he is the lead here not because he leads the love triangle but because he leads the show. This is a family-oriented drama about the growth of two people: JH and DS. Their families are highlighted in the official posters not because they will eventually be joined by marriage but because they shape and support the maturation of these two characters. JH (described as "dog-like" and not "human") and DS (with her insecurities and lack of self-awareness) start out as the most immature of the group, and thus have the most to gain in the course of its story. The early episodes focused on JH's growth through his interactions with everyone around him (and thus mislead viewers into thinking he was the lead --> would win the girl). Learning to swallow his pride and fears of vulnerability in order to express his feelings honestly was the final frontier in this process. For as long as he struggled over this, JH could not mature as a person in the same way his character could not be developed further within the story's framework. Because often growth is painful and comes by way of failure, JH cannot end up with DS if the writer is to make her point to the audience. If JH can be frustratingly silent, waste 5 years, and still win the love of his life, what was the point? Again, unless the writer and producers want to shoot themselves in the foot (AND THEY WON'T) after all of the production's efforts of casting the right actors, crafting detailed sets, and 18+ episodes of live filming on top of their own merit and integrity as artists, TAEK WILL BE THE HUSBAND.

Sorry to talk so much about JH but I think no one should have any reason to be gloomy here I respect the baduk etiquette we have so come to love, yet even more so, I respect the artistry of the writer. Reasonable doubt is understandable but at this point in the story, the husband hunt is pretty much a done deal. Everything is being wrapped up nicely; we're only waiting to put the bow on top ^_^. It's just a question of how, when, and where for TK-DS now.

Please don't let nervousness and uncertainty blind you from seeing the genius inherent in the writer's work. I would rather we be gloomy from empathizing with JH (and how unfortunately relatable is his character to our real lives? the pains of regret... *sigh*) than from the fear of Taektanic sinking at the last minute by a completely illogical twist of narrative.

Edit: Ooh, a preview. *goes off to watch* Still, it changes nothing ^^

@aoikarin thst scene looks more like sunwoo told DS that he wants to marry bora... Looks like he is hiding behind Taek lol

Yeah, it's probably about SWXBR and DR saying that he's clueless about it prob about them too.
