He couldn't move ahead because of his over-consideration for JungHwan. I think if in his youth he had been more confident of broaching the topic with JungHwan, something might have happened sooner. 

Honestly I'm glad that they have their 'men talk' when they're adult *23 years old i think*. They are more mature at that time. It suit them.

It shows how their 18-year old self valued their friendship. How Deoksun chose to put her feeling for her self than losing Taek as her friend. And how both Taek and Junghwan chose to put halt on their feeling for Deoksun in order to keep their friendship. 

I think it is natural for 18 year old to chose the friendship over love

Finish watching ep 19 with sub. Lol writer is richard simmons obsessed with the star. Star always comes late. She must really love Choi Taek

I haven't seen the scene with subs, but i've read the translation (lmao contradicting but you know what i mean). 

Anyway the way I understood it. People in general use the word 'awkward' when there is a big elephant in the room that they couldn't resolve out in the open or when something happened and people are not sure how to proceed. In deoksun's case maybe she means awkward this way: there is a feeling or an emotion that she is bothered about and she doesn't know how to proceed with it. If i remember correctly, she continued her explanation with, "I can never imagine being awkward with you." This might imply, that she is willing to forget the kiss if it will cost losing his friendship, because she doesn't want HER feelings to be the reason of not having Taek's friendship. Having Taek in her life is better than not having him at all. 

However, as non-native speaker, I want to know when deoksun said "But..." Taek immediately swooped in for the kiss. Was the "But..." a prelude used by most Koreans to a positive remark like "But... i can't take it anymore Taek-ah. I like you."?

 

Hi @kepogee @melissala @gilaswan @powerpuff94 and the rest I havent mentioned, thanks to you I have a better understanding now of what was going on in that moment.. So little words spoken but a lot of it held tacit admission of their feelings. I too thought by adding the word "but" she was implying she had feelings for him and that she was open to explore unchartered territories with him.

I love this forum. Everyone's so lovely. ♥

[melleri]

The 13 hour baduk scene in ep. 20 is so clever. He suffered a lot, but it was worth because in the end he won, and now his gf came to wait for him.  I see you what they did there PD Shin Won Ho .

And I love pouty Taek in the car when he didn't want to hide the two dating.  I'm sure DS had to work hard to appease him and keep him quiet lol 

[taeksun]

You ask, and you shall receive @heyyyitsgs20  I hope it's at least somewhat similar to what you wanted haha

/Cue totally self-indulgent filler wordspew of the DSxTK moments we didn't get to see in the show/

Spoiler

It's not until the autumn of 1997 when Taek makes Deoksun cry again.

 

It's stupid and he's not even there when it happens. She's stuck at home, sick with the flu and he's in Taiwan at a major tournament. He plays a twelve hour match against a rising Korean baduk player and he wins in the end, but his opponent is just happy to have played such an intense match against Choi Taek. She's pretty, with intelligent eyes and a cute bob and she is openly interested in him after the match. Unlike Taek who remains fiercely private, she gives a honest interview about how she actually started playing baduk because of Choi Taek and how she's honoured to play him. She makes no attempt to hide her interest in him in front of the media, who happily eats up the story and speculate over whether they have a new golden couple.

 

Taek doesn't even interact with her outside of the match, save for a comment about how she's very skilled when prompted by the reporters, but Deoksun feels the sting of hurt. She's already feeling horrible and inadequate watching Taek shining in his element, whilst she's in her pajamas and with tissues in her nose and seeing this girl next to him...

 

It's not an unfamiliar feeling. She's not blind, she's seen the way other people look at Taek, with awe and respect and desire too. She knows they look at the two of them and they think, it's Choi Taek, it's Master Choi and who is that girl he's with? Why is someone like him with someone like her?

 

This isn't the first time Taek has been linked to someone in the media, and each time her heart pangs, but something about this girl, a mirror of Taek, an equal, feels extra raw. Deoksun had been the one to ask him to deny their dating rumours and to not tell their parents or the press. Taek had been unhappy and she doesn't know how he can be so calm and bold in wanting to declare his feelings for her and show her off as his girl.

 

Her parents are watching excitedly and mum says she is happy that maybe Taek finally found someone he likes, someone who is smart and understands his world, what a perfect match-

 

It's me, she wants to shout and there are tears in her eyes. He's not seeing her, he's with me, we're together, we've been together for years.

 

But she can't, it's not fair, not when she was the one who made Taek not say anything in the first place. She thinks of all the times they've snuck away for kisses, the way they take walks just to spend more time together, the precious times when they're together overseas and they get to go on dates like normal couples. This was her own doing and she has no right to lash out. She goes to her room and tries not to think about what it might have been like if they had just been open all those years ago, and the tears fall before she can wipe them away.

 

 

 

Of course, they all grill Taek about it over dinner when he gets back. They are all huddled at Taek's place and the parents are eager and unsubtle with their questions and teasing. Taek deflects as best as he can, but they all accuse him of hiding something and when Junghwan's dad ask when he's going to bring this girl home, Taek goes quiet.

 

He squares his shoulders and lifts his chin in a way that Deoksun knows means he's had enough with the jokes. In her experience, it usually proceeds him getting very serious.

 

"No, I don't like her."  He meets her eyes across the room and her heart falters when she sees how frustrated and resigned he looks. "I have someone I like."

 

He stays silent as they bombard him with questions and she takes a deep breath. "He's not seeing her. Or the actress. Or the singer."

 

Everyone is staring at her like she's just grown an extra head and Taek's gaze burns into her skin, his eyes wide, surprised and painfully hopeful.

 

It gives her the push to finally says the words. "He's not seeing any of them, because...we're together."

 

No one reacts, though she notes that Sunwoo and Junghwan both grin knowingly. "Taek and I, we're dating, we've been together for three years," she continues. "We love each other."

 

There's another long moment then chaos, and her mum and Sunwoo's mum both burst into tears on the spot and Taek's dad is trying to stay stoic, but he can't stop smiling. Junghwan's parents are most excited of all and just congratulating them. Only Deoksun's dad stays silent and his facial expression is unreadable.

 

Then, slowly, he laughs and shouts at everyone that he's guessed the most important thing right after all, and that breaks the tension completely, and everyone is hugging them and yelling at them for keeping it a secret.

 

 

 

They're both exhausted when they meet up in Tokyo, her on a stopover and he after another international  competition.  They haven't seen each other in over two weeks and she can tell just how gruelling the competition must have been from the way he's slouched against the wall and his eyes are barely open.

 

She grabs his hand and it still takes her breath away a little to see the way he lights up around her, the way his eyes brighten and he breaks out into a wide smile. The way he pulls her into his arms and kisses her. They stay like that, holding each other and making up for lost time. She shivers and it has nothing to do with the winter air.

 

They grab food from a hole in the wall restaurant and headed back to his hotel room so they can eat on the couch freely. There's a Japanese game show playing on the television, but she's not really watching the screen. Rather, she drinks him in as if they haven't seen each other in months. She hasn't even realised how much she's missed him.

 

He looks slimmer, even though he promises he's eating better even when she's not there and there are shadows under his eyes. Her eyes flit over the prominent cheekbones, the sharp jawline, the long eyelashes and she thinks he's beautiful. It's an odd choice of words to describe a man, she knows, but it seems appropriate for Taek, this beautiful, beautiful genius who has become the most important person in her life without her even realising.

 

When did this happen, she thinks faintly, when did I grow to love him this much?

 

It's past midnight and she's so very sleepy, so she can imagine Taek being half asleep already whilst staring at the screen. She's not expecting it when he turns to her and his eyes are focused, serious and purposeful like he's in the middle of a game. "Taek?"

 

He silently takes her hand and he runs his thumb over her knuckles three times before he speaks. "Deoksun-ah, you know how important baduk is to me, right? For a long time, it was everything to me, and I couldn't think of anything better to help me say this."

 

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a box and when he pops it open, she stops breathing for a second. There's a white gold ring inside, curved in an infinity sign and inset with an oynx stone in one half and a pearl in the other half.  It's like two baduk pieces coming together and it's like nothing she's ever seen. It is incredibly beautiful.

 

"Sung Deoksun, you are the most important thing in my life, more than baduk, more than anything. Would you like to be by my side for the rest of our lives?"

 

She's started crying as soon as she saw the ring and his words just makes it worse. She can only keep nodding, too choked up to say anything. He smiles and the tension seems to seep out of him and he wastes no time sliding the ring onto her finger. His hand shakes a little and he kisses her on her hand. Words are failing her, so she just leans in to kiss him.

 

He cups her face like he always does and it never fails to make her melt. Her hands come up to embrace him and they lose themselves in the feeling of each other, not even aware of the fact that she's leaning further and further back until she's lying flat on her back and he's hovering over her, almost straddling her. She flushes when she realises how compromising their position is, but she doesn't push him away, her stomach bursting with butterflies.

 

He drops kisses along her jaw and down her neck and they both gasp a little, her from the feeling of his lips against the hollow of her throat and he from her involuntary tug on his hair. She pulls her hands back in embarrassment, but he grabs her wrist and pins it to the couch and resumes kissing her. She meets him halfway and she barely notices when he links their fingers together because she's trying to stop her heart from beating too fast.

 

In this generic hotel room in this unfamiliar city, in a foreign country, Deoksun has never felt more like this is where she belongs, right by Taek's side.

 

When the pull apart to catch their breath, she notices that it's starting to snow. The first snow.

 

Always, she thinks, answering her own question from earlier. He's always been home to me. I just never realised what that really meant.

 

She cups his jaw and kisses him again.

 

 

 

She doesn't hide the ring when she goes to see Junghwan, and he notices almost straight away, but he only looks pleasantly surprised and his smile doesn't falter.

 

He takes to her a restaurant near the base and there's an amused smile on his face when she is taken aback by all the people who salutes him.

 

"Whoa, Jungpal, moving up in the world! I guess you're finally human," she teases.

 

He laughs and swipes her egg and they chat comfortably. She asks him about how it's like on the base, and updates him on how his parents are, and his phone keeps buzzing as they talk.

 

She eyes with a grin and he cuts her off before she can say anything by pointing out her ring. "So, Taek finally popped the question, huh?"

 

It works because immediately she grows sombre and her eyes drop to her food. "Junghwan-ah….I…"

 

"About time! I mean, it's been years right? I thought Taekkie was going to go crazy waiting."

 

Her head whips up and she blinks in shock, "You knew?!"

 

Junghwan laughs. "You two are so similar sometimes, both such fools. I guess Taekkie didn't tell you he came to see me all those years ago did he?"

 

"He did?"

 

"Yeah, just like you, all serious and sorry, as if he wronged me. Then you guys came back from China and I can't believe no one but Sunwoo and I noticed, you two were downright giddy. I hadn't seen Taek so happy in years. Same with you."

 

She flushes to her roots. "I- nothing happened!"

 

He gives her an unimpressed stare. "You just got engaged. Stop trying to hide the fact you are madly in love with the guy already."

 

"It's not like that! We weren't technically hiding-"

 

He scoffs, "You two have done enough waiting and hiding your feelings, so just stop, okay?. He pauses, hesitant. "Deoksun-ah, all those years ago, because of me, Taekkie-"

 

She cuts him off, smiling warmly and takes his hands in her own. "Junghwan, thank you. For everything, thank you."

 

"Who is this?" a new voice cuts in and they both look up to see a beautiful woman with long hair in a ponytail staring at them with concern.

 

They separate quickly and Junghwan stutters as he greets her. "Yah, Bae Joo-hyun, what are you doing just popping out like a ghost?"

 

The girl, Joo-hyun, glares at him. "Maybe if you replied to my messages I wouldn't have to come find you! Who is this?"

 

Junghwan determinedly does not meet Deoksun's teasing gaze.

 

"Hi!" Deoksun quickly greets her and introduces herself, "I'm Sung Deoksun. I'm Junghwan's friend because we all grew up in the same neighbourhood."

 

Joo-hyun bows back in response and her face brightens when she notices the ring on her hand. "Ahh, sorry, I'm one of Junghwan's classmates, Bae Joo-hyun. I've never seen you around here, so I was flustered to see you two being so close."

 

She scratches her head, abashed and smiles apologetically at Deoksun. "I'll leave you two to it then-"

 

"Come join us," Deoksun asks with a grin, and she ignores Junghwan's splutter of protest. "We can exchange embarrassing stories about Junghwan."

 

The girls laugh as if they're already friends and Joo-hyun slots into the seat next to Junghwan, whose ears get redder and redder as they all talk and Deoksun notices the way Joo-hyun keeps touching his arm comfortably and steals his food without asking. Junghwan is all protests and complaints, but he lets her steal his favourite side dishes and there's a stupid smile he can't wipe off his face when Joo-hyun talks about how he was the best in their class and how she always liked a man in uniform. She's adorable and full of energy and he looks downright blown away whenever she leans in close or smiles at him.

 

Deoksun  grins at Junghwan knowingly, who flushes and ducks his head, and she touches her ring, her heart full and lighter than it has been for years.

 

 

They marry at the very start of spring, almost exactly a year later.

 

It's a beautiful, but very simple affair and everyone is happy and excited for the couple. Bora growls that she can't believe Deoksun is making her wear a formal dress when she's ready to pop and Junghwan brings Joo-hyun, but fumbles over what to call her when he introduces her to people. He switches from friend to girlfriend to classmate and back to girlfriend, and Joo-hyun just rolls her eyes and tells him to get her a drink.

 

Deoksun can barely get through her speech without crying though she manages to crack a joke about taking responsibility for him since she broke him as a kid. Taek pours his heart out and talks about how he still can't believe he's so lucky and how he doesn't need to take sleeping pills anymore and how she's changed his life for the better in every way that matters.

 

His words has pretty much everyone crying by the end of it and Deoksun can see both Junghwan and Bora wiping away their tears next to them. Sunwoo and Dongryong are unabashedly crying by this point and Deoksun can see Taek's teacher wiping away tears and clutching at Taek's dad, who is crying in a much more dignified manner.

 

They go honeymoon in Australia, where no one recognises Taek and they spend the two weeks snorkelling and hiking and eating lunch by the ocean and going out to look at stars on a hill. They stay in a little apartment by the beach and go collect seashells and go for walks as the sun sets. It has always been a dream of her to visit Australia and she doesn't want to waste a single moment of it not exploring new things.

 

They wake up together to see the sunrise outside their window and it's bathes them and their bed in a soft glow. Taek runs a hand along her neck and her eyes widen slightly as he slides the strap of her nightgown off her shoulder. He meets her gaze with a slow grin and his fingers trail down her spine teasingly. She shivers and she's ready when he leans in for a kiss and she's on her back within seconds.

 

One of his hands slide up to curve against her ribcage and the other frames her hipbone and her eyes flutter shut with a soft exhale. She would have thought she'd be getting used to this now, but each time, it surprises her in new ways and it takes her breath away without fail.

 

They don't get out of bed for the rest of the day and as he kisses the inside of her thigh, she supposes that it's not like they aren't exploring new things.
 

hahaha I can't believe I did this /hides/

[bluesteyes]

I just realise that JH always got a lot of screen time in the earlier episodes but its always related to his family. He narrates Kim family, thats why he got lot screen time. But as soon as its about love, he got less and less screen time. I dont understand why some people think he would be the husband its obvious that writer warned those people by reducing his screen time more and more towards the end. Its not even writer's fault when people got a richard simmons hit at the end. Its people who being too obsessed about him being the husband. Writer never makes him the center of the story, she only makes him as the narrator of Kim family. after taek love was presented on screen, JH got less and less screen time, he even only seen studying and frustating. Lol there is no way writer would do this cruel treatment to her main lead. On the other hand its Choi Taek who always being talked since ep 1 and got more and more screen time until the end. He was the one who actively communicated with almost everyone in the story. It is the way I see it.

And this drama is near perfect IMO. They already told us they will focus more on family, and they keep their words. So far (ep 19) everything is well-written and executed. Now watching ep 20 with sub.

Family gathering in restaurant is my favorit. I adore writer and pd and all the staffs

SW and JH worked hard to drag DR back home but TK and DS, as usual, were in their own world, just there to enjoy the view and snacks.. lol

 

2 hours ago, melissala said:

That's such a good point. At the time I was like, "why are letting her be alone with Taek  JH, you are dumb", but really JH didn't have a choice in the matter.  DS naturally gravitated to Taek and made her choice to sit with him, and enjoy the snacks away from the rest of them.  

And you guys realize this was again during her crush and AFTER he said don't go on the blind date.  So she thought JH liked her, but  didn't complain she couldn't go home with him or that she was stuck with Taek.  She enjoyed her time with him. 

 

LOL. I totally laughed out loud when I read a post on the main thread about Jung Hwan telling her not to go on a blind date, but she ended up going on a beach date with blinding sun setting in the background and them holding hands. LOL. I think it was PM3's post?

See, here is the thing, Jung Hwan is like the viewers of this drama. He overlooked Duk Seon and Taek's relationship as a mere friendship/kingship. Nobody has ever questioned their relationship because they're used to seeing them together all the time. In Episode 4, Jung Hwan freaked out twice at the thought of Duk Seon being alone with two of the boys. First, with Sun Woo when he injured himself and Duk Seon told him to go home. Second, when he walked in to Taek's room and saw Dong Ryong's arm around Duk Seon's shoulder. He overreacted with the wrong boys. But there was never a time he ever freaked out that Duk Seon and Taek were always together (not even when she went away to China with him). Like the viewers, Jung Hwan didn't think much more of their relationship.

Or perhaps, he`s been always aware of it - it's just that he knew it was something he couldn't get in between. As melissala said, she naturally gravitated to Taek.

Yes, i think DS's feeling towards Taek grows fiercer after the China trip on EP9, right when she's supposed to be 'crushing' on JH.

 

 

Ahh I love this. Thanks for listing these beautiful moments. I`m once again remembering how many more things we can talk about Duk Seon and Taek. Exploring and analyzing their moments will be never ending. There's always room for interpretation the more we re-watch these scenes. I would like to comment, for now, that as her search for that someone to love her continues, her relationship with Taek deepens. And when she had her epiphany, the feelings suddenly overwhelmed her. She's been looking far and wide, completely missing the fact that what she's been looking for so long is just right under her nose all this time. Totally relatable - her love story is.

[melleri]

I love present Deok-Sun and Taek.  They are so comfortable and cute together, still constantly touching each other and showing affection after so many years.  So beautiful. 

After watching the subs... It's a real shame the husband stuff got so overblown, and people got so invested being right since the last two episode were amazing.  The end seriously made me cry, especially the ajummas together crying when SW's mom moved. Another scene that I loved was present Deok-Sun talking about how old her parents are getting. They have to be in their 70's now.  It reminded me of myself because I worry now that my mom is getting older.  Just so many amazing moments in these episodes.  I'm going to miss this drama so much.  Feels like I'm saying goodbye to my own family and friends.  

And Junghwan and Deok-Sun's family remained neighbors it seems!  Her dad mentioned going to the same place the Kim's wanted to go to.  I'm so glad 

[bluesteyes]

I dont see the story is a mess. It ended gracefully. I really like it. Dont understand why knetz being micinsegi about the ending. The writer, pd, and everyone involved in this drama is totally awesome. When can I get this feeling again?

THIS i wanna see this if only can see she being special MC for MB with Bogum as well  

i hope there picture of the cast sharing their vacation....i heard Hyeri can only go for 3day only?poor girl so busy she should have gotten longer break

gonna watch the sub after this but at same time im not ready since it really the end lol

ep9 definitely the beginning of DS feeling start blossoming to love like how it might be inspiration from that real life Baduk wife where she fall in love after seeing his cooler self playing....

even in the middle of crushing for JH it obvious she always make Taek her priority and even go along with she need to take responsibility for Taek for rest of her life joke in front of JH, in ep11 she choose to stay behind waiting for Taek to eat&end up sleeping there(Deoksun-ah Taek have ruin your marriage chance to other people since long ago lol), even JH birthday aside from preparing pink shirt gift for JH(which she make MO choose instead of her own choice compare to how she choose everything for Taek without anyone telling her to) she mostly pay more attention to Taek rather than the birthday boy and many more time she always being bias and priorities Taek over other friend&current crush...

i don't see how people argue JH-DS have more development when i see nothing much except for her feeling for JH growing colder and colder because of his hot&cold treatment and the fact he always hesitate to cross the line(for example their 1st concert date where there no love rival at the time but he can't even lend her a jacket even she obviously freezing that definitely a big no when you try to court a girl and i don't even know if he ever plan to confess even without Taek on the way it still gonna take years lol) and also he stop being her friend when they alone when he hide his feeling because of TK, and when she need him he can't even go to comfort her crying or lend jacket(the lending jacket is important lol) while for Taek he still continue to be her friend and always there at times she most need him even while hiding his feeling..the only development mostly JH feeling for DS where he finally have the courage to confess but DS feeling have end for long time while DS-TK keep developing something more special..for me JH shine the most when he is with his family or with friends but not in the love line

[melleri]

My only regret about the finale is I wish they had a scene were Deok-Sun and Taek got outed.  Her bro would have been so happy for being right.  I wanted one more DS/Taek scene, but there actually IS with the older version of them and they are so lovely...so I'm happy.

can Park Bo Gum any cuter? Aaaaakkkkk so cute. Couple couple

[mangachickava]

so im still making my way through ep 19... and I had a thought

some fans said they thought DR actually would be great for DS...and i agree that they had a great relationship that was funny and positive in that they supported each other. 

Funny though that TK fit right in with their relationship, and the three had a great dynamic,

when it came to choosing DR and TK...DS picked TK right away too (and also showed how close she was to DR that she could be honest with him and know he would not be hurt)

and it was great choice to have DR piggyback DS first and then TK bridal carry her. To contrast how she feels about her closest friends aka she likes TK more in way that she would refuse to get on his back in fear of being heavy...

Hi~ all. After watching this drama, I am starting to read a lot of analysis in dc. I’m really impressed so want to share some with you.

Spoiler

DeoksunxTaek’s love is Storge. 

http://gall.dcinside.com/board/view/?id=reply1988&no=765406&page=1&exception_mode=recommend&search_pos=&s_type=search_all&s_keyword=%EC%95%84%EA%B0%80%ED%8E%98

Storge love -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storge

Some may say there are other ways to love one in storge form. But this is between married couples, who are committed, and plan to have a long relationship together, particularly as a fundamental relational foundation post-limerance. Another interpretation for storge is to be used to describe a sexual relationship between two people that gradually grew out of a friendship—storgic lovers sometimes cannot pinpoint the moment that friendship turned to love. 

Storgic lovers are friends first, and the friendship, and the storge, can endure even beyond the breakup of the sexual relationship. They want their significant others to also be their best friends, and will choose their mates based on similar goals and interests –homogamy.

Storgic lovers place much importance on commitment, and find that their motivation to avoid committinginfidelity is to preserve the trust between the two partners. Children and marriage are seen as legitimate longterm aims for their bond, while passionate sexual intensity is of lesser importance than in other love styles.

Advantages/disadvantages
Advantages of storgic love may be the level of how one loves their family and understands each other. In addition, two people that are deeply devoted to one another can feel the intimacy that they share. The main disadvantage of storgic love may be the large time investment and fallout should the two people change enough to lose their friendship.

 

2015 INTERVIEW SCENE
TK: Who asked who to date first, you're asking?
TK: um....
DS: We started sinabro(시나브로)

시나브로. Sinabro.
TK/DS said their love is 시나브로(Sinabro) . 시나브로 is famous pure Korean word. It means little by little, bit by bit, slowly but surely by degrees. It’s really pretty word. Storge love is like sinabro falling in love.

TK was husband from the first.

청실홍실 (Blue thread red threads/ 靑紅絲)   Blue thread red threads is a folk tale and it means a match made in heaven. PD shows many scenes about that.

This drama is like beautiful poem.  Every single scene and line has their own meaning. The more you know, the more you like it. 

I recommend some of you who know Korean to read the analysis in dc.
