[utkim]

Thank you to everyone and for everything .

 

it was a beautiful and a  thoughtful drama indeed .  Ep 16 was a beautiful closure and it wrapped up neatly. Love love Sohuyn and Jinhyuk and thank you kyo and Bogum for accepting this drama, I was a bit hesitate in the beginning bcos of the age gap but ending loving you both as the drama progressed. Hopefully seeing you both in a movie in the future though it seems odd . But who knows.

Thank you everyone

Thank you so much.

In addition to beautiful dialogues and pleasing acts, Kim Jin Hyuk and Cha Soo Hyun always express their love and affection with 

gesture, touching, eyes contacts, and staring stop short like their sight can not repel from each other have also shouted out their deep love, kind caring, and passionate yearning in the catured pictures you posted.

 

How could audiences be lucky to have a chance to watch Park Bo Gum’s and Song Hye Kyo’s amazing acting and gorgeously beautiful visuals like in Encounter / Boyfriend as our dearest Kim Jin Hyuk and Cha Soo Hyun?

 

Would audiences have fate to watch PBG&SHK come back to act together again? We shall wait and see with hope.

 Ellen Park, SHK’s manager was still at the party.

Haha...chingu, it takes Kyo's finale to draw you out! So glad you did. I'll see you at the next Kyo's project..hehe...

 

Yeah, you had a bit of discomfort like some at the start and it's normal cos of the age gap but I love the pairing right from the start!

Cos I know that they'll look stunning together and that since kyo looks so young and pretty, the gap will not be too obvious and BINGO! PBG made the job easier with his back-combed hair in the hotel and at the masquerade - look how mature is. His seriousness is so charismatic and his kisses...that's a real man out there!   

 

I can see him taking charge of the kiss in ep 16, compared to his shyness in Cuba at the end of the balcony kiss....did you see him tugging at her lips after each kiss.....it's a mini-Cuba sexy kiss alright.....   

 

He certainly has grown to be the man that SH comes to rely on...in all aspects.... hehe..

 

Serious PBG is sexy & mature

Cute SHK is adorable & cuddly

 

Anyone knows where to watch the raw ep 16?

In addition to acting skills and favorable voice, from your captured picture, we can realize the beautiful visuals is crucial to be the top actor / actress.

 

Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo with their work-out figure and firm face looks gorgeous and hard to stop staring indeed. 

 

==============

@stroppyse @ahdrianaa @bubblechoco Or anyone who know::

By the way, I have a question from the welcoming card to newly hired employee, who wrote with handwriting on Kim Jin Hyuk’s card? What did the handwriting mean? 

Why did another newly hired employee have no hand writing? 

Thank you in advance.

Cha Soo Hyun, Kim Jin Hyuk and The Little Prince (part one)

 

 Although this story, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, looks like a book for children due to the drawings and the style, in reality The little prince is classified as a philosophical tale. First, the author is criticizing through this story our modern society... don't forget that it was written during World War Two therefore he wanted people to question themselves and their values. The main points are the following:

- the contrast between appearances and reality

- the incapacity of communicating between adults and children

- the importance of relationships among people and to take care of them

- the sense of responsibility towards others

- the loss of true values due to money and power (represented by different kind of adults: the king, the drunkard, the geographer as scientist, the businessman, the vain man and the streetlight igniter)

In The Little Prince, the adults are portrayed in a pejorative way: their lives consist of dependencies (alcohol, the need of admiration, the greed to possess etc.), of loneliness and lack of feelings. After reading this short description, you can observe that CSH's world looks a lot like the world in this story. The two main protagonists in The Little Prince are the aviator and the Little Prince, yet they should be considered as representing the same person because the main point of this tale is to ask people to take care of their inner child. That's why you can read in The little Prince

"All grown-ups were once children... but only few of them remember it.”

The little prince represents the child embodying all the positive aspects like innocence, creativity, imagination, purity and curiosity in opposite to the adults mentioned above, while the narrator and aviator is the adult. Meeting the prince in the desert means that the aviator is able to rediscover his inner child and rethink about his own life: True values like friendship and love become visible again hence the fox says that

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

At the end of the story, The Little Prince leaves the aviator behind (officially he goes back to his planet but since a snake bit him, we can wonder if he died), yet the narrator says that he is still looking for the little prince, even asking the readers if they saw him. Besides, when the aviator looks at the stars in the sky, he always thinks of him. As you can see, the aviator doesn't forget his "inner child". He is an grown-up after all, yet he shouldn't forget his inner child.

In the beginning, the aviator explains an unforgettable event. When he was 6 years old, the adults couldn't understand his drawing hence he gave up to become an artist. From that moment, the aviator started living like a grown-up... and here we can see a parallel with CSH. It was around this age, where she was forced to give up her innocence and carefree life and become an adult at an young age. Meeting KJH is like meeting the little prince. She discovers what she has long forgotten: love, joy, carefree life aso.  This also justifies why KJH has this playfulness and cheerfulness as he is still very innocent. He might be a grown-up on the surface, yet his personality reminds us of a "child". I can not forget how some viewers sometimes reacted to his huge smiles... they were somehow bothered by these smiles. But seeing these from this perspective, KJH is the little prince, the one who will awaken CSH's inner child. Thanks to him, CSH is able to perceive life with her heart and no longer with her eyes. JWS was too realistic and too grown-up to bring happiness into her life. On the other hand, CSH represents the adulthood because in the philosophical tale, the little prince starts changing as well: he discovers what friendship and love mean which becomes painful for him. He loses little by little his innocence as well. 

He left his planet because of the rose. The flower was so vain, contradictory but vulnerable, however she ended up hurting the little prince with her words. She loves him but she is well aware that she was the reason he misunderstood her. The rose symbolizes on the one hand femininity and on the other love. The little prince only realized how unique his rose was after meeting the fox:

"It's the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important.”

 We could say that KJH is resembling a lot to the little prince. He spent a lot of time with his rose, took great care of her but due to her words, he ended up leaving her behind. The rose could be perceived either as CSH (she broke up with him) or his mother (who hurt him by forcing CSH to break up with him). Moreover, moving closer to CSH who is the archetype of the adult means facing reality and the world of the grown-ups. He met the queen Chairman Kim, the greedy director Choi, the jealous CEO JWS... Each time, he got hurt but was able to overcome the suffering. He experienced a lot with CSH. He became little by little an adult. Yet his mother refused to see it. That's why CSH and KJH are both saying the same at the end: they make the other a better person. CSH can become more cheerful and playful again, KJH has become a real man. He is her fence and her protector. They complete each other.   

 

Striking is that CSH has a lot in common with the little prince as well. Both are lonely. He lived on his planet, she lived for her hotel. Secondly, both enjoy watching sunsets. The prince said he could watch 44 sunsets on his planet, when he felt sad. And we saw how the sunset in Cuba had such an impact on CSH. She could forget her sad life, this even marked the time of her awakening: trying to enjoy life differently. Then we have this.

Notice that the rose is protected by the glass, just like CSH's bouquet offered by KJH.

I was wondering before why KJH still has CSH shoes, now I know it will be the biggest symbol of her coming back to him, omg just like Cinderella...  and the memo Cuba note to be preserved in a glass jar together with the flower when he proposed to her my gosh it’s really so romantic, they will always remember the first time they meet each other looking at that jar...Writernim I salute you, you created a wonderful love story like fairytale but so realistic too.... I will miss CSH and KJH...

I love how the writer wrapped up the story. I never thought seeing a pair of shoes could have so much impact on me. My heart stopped for a second fearing that JH is letting her go but then I realized it was the opposite. I love the playground scene, it was perfect. It could have ended right there and I wouldn't have minded.

Watching the Naver Video Cut of the First Snowfall Kiss and the Top 2 and 3 Comments made me smile...

Same here. At the very beginning, it is a big problem with age gap, Park Bo Gum has paired with younger actresses but never with older female lead BUT from now on, I wanna hope for him to pair with experienced and skillful actress as Song Hye Kyo’s features. 

 

Wow, sharp eyes with thorough observation, Kim Jin Hyuk is leading for deep kiss, he has more experience now. 

 

Working out made Park Bo Gum much more manly and look tougher while working out made Song Hye Kyo healthier and more petite...perfect match. 

 

Hair stylists, make-up artists, cloth stylists should be praised for all of Park Bo Gum’s and Song Hye Kyo’s gorgeous look, they made PBG manly and more matured while made SHK petite and freshly younger.

@dianss23

I am looking forward to watching ep16 with subtitle to absorb their beautiful moments about their shoes and their reconciling from breaking up

 

Shoes might reflect how KJH treasures even a little thing about CSH from day one which they knew each other, CSH is always special to KJH from the start, as same as evidence of note in Cuba cafe. Kudo scriptwriter.

@htk9207

I thought in a short flash of moment when CSH appeared, did KJH reconcile too easily but he is obedient.

 

As audiences have known, to be able to love and be with CSH, KJH has not had much pride but he is ready to do whatever and whenever for CSH, that’s CSH’s Kim Jin Hyuk as special Kim Jin Hyuk, her one and only in the world.

Oh, Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo looked pretty tired from non-stop filming even their visual looks naturally great.

Could I complain about Park Bo Gum’s hat? I wanna see his hair. I like SHK with ponytail in the last dating scene and in wrap up party.

Thank you so much. 

The writer creates both KJH and CSH to be the persons which is different from other people around themselves. 

Even KJH and CSH come from different world but they are together with similar inner as the quote

“It’s the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important”
