[mellinadear]

It's been an incredible Ride with everyone in this thread.

To the Cast & Crew, thank you for this wonderful journey.

 

Can't wait to watch the End Sub of the last episode.

@NongpeeP You are right, they are different from the people around them because they come from a different world... not just literally speaking (she comes from the upper social class, him from the lower middle-class) but also she represents the adulthood (worries, seriousness), whereas he embodies the youth and innocence.

 @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.

It's because Jinhyuk wrote something there!
I forgot what he has written though... should be nothing meaningful

Probably something to remind him to work hard as I see "Fighting" at the end

Favor? Can you look into it more? maybe a still?

Because I was also wondering.

I think CSH actually scribbled a welcome note on that welcome card.

That's why he touched it while he was drafting a resignation letter. 

I would do it myself but i dont read hangul

Thanks for the recap everyone! I look forward to watching the ep 15-16 tonite or this weekend.

 

It's good that not only CSH and JH is able to protect their love but they are also able to reconcile with their respective family members.

@Jemrie wow that kissing gif thank you so much, can’t stop watching it  PBG can really kiss, looks so manly the way he holds CSH even when he is holding her head for more deep kissing... kudos to both of them for being so professional and acted being in love really well

[NongpeeP]

I have just finished watching Encounter Last Episode.

 

As I wrote here, ep16 with Eng sub made me amaze much more than watching live. 

How can the writer point out particular issues interesting with facts behind. This is the best closure for a kdrama, much better beyond I expected. 

 

PD, writer, Production house, and Casts&Crews have worked with pride to deliver the life value and the essence of love in the rhythm with artistic vibes from ep.1-16.  

 

Last but not least, thank you Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo for accepting this acting project among bias (including me) and working very hard to deliver this best acting quality with rookie-to-survive attitudes, the most beautiful visuals, and unbelievable chemistry to the audiences. 

 

 

*** KJH and his mom

- I cried harder than Ep.15 for the scene KJH rubbed mom’s arm because he worried her wait in cold weather, he looks precious as CSH described. The way he talked to his mom reflect his sweetheart feature.

 

KJH:

“I was flustered and heartbroken at first, but I understand where you come from. 

You just didn’t know how much I love her.

You don’t know what she meant to me.

She means as much as I love you, dad, and Jin Myung, I love her. 

She wanna break up but I think she only said that because she was worried about you.

She also said that our family is down-to-earth and that we have a quality money can’t buy.

She was worried about breaking something that precious.

That’s why she wanted to end things.

What you did was out of love.

The same goes for her too.

That’s why I need to protect both of you no matter what.

Until you accept us.

Until she’s free of her guilt.

I’ll wait in my place.”

 

Mom: “I guess I was the one who was scared. So it’s okay for you to hate me for this. 

 

KJH: “I love you, mom”

 

 

*** When KJH’s mom met CSH:

 

CSH:

” The reason I decided to break up with him was because I was also worried about the exact same thing as you.  It’s not your fault. Jin Hyuk is right I broke up with him because this is my way of loving him.”

 

KJH’s Mom:

”I’d love it if you come over for a meal again”

 

 

*** Ex-husband and his mom

Ex-husband’s mom:

” CSH never did anything before, but she’s changed now. 

Sometimes I can’t help but admire her.

The one that changed Soo Hyun wasn’t the heir of Taegyeong. 

It was the son of a family that runs some fruit store”

 

 

*** CSH and her dad

Dad:

”I know why you want to take care of those around you.

However, if you look at the root of question, then you must  question yourself first.

Do you really think you could live the rest of your life feeling that way?” 

 

 

*** KJH’s letter to CSH with the shoes

 

KJH: 

“Soo Hyun, these are shoes that brought you to me.

I believe they’ll bring you back to me.

These days, you’re walking on a rough patch. 

I hope you look at these shoes and remember. 

The times we walked happily. 

Soo Hyun, you are my one and only love.

Don’t forget that.”

 

 

One Year Passed

 

 

*** KJH visits CSH’s dad. 

KJH&CSH often come to have a home cook by KJH’s mom.

 

KJH’s mom:

”I’m really not fond of Jin Hyuk right now. He brings over his girlfriend almost every day. 

What am I supposed to cook for her? 

I am running out dishes for her.

Why does he bring her home instead of eating out?“

 

 

*** KJH and CSH was dating in the village.

 

KJH: “Will you be busy during 2nd quarter? 

CSH: “The Cuba hotel is done, probably not. 

KJH: “Then can you spare me sometime?

CSH: “Why don’t we go to Santiago?”

KJH: “Can we go as newlyweds?” 

CSH: (sweet smile)

Couldn't resist read the spoilers. Or rather the recaps.

 

I am posting to thank you for the amazing recaps and gif. Its like watching the episode.

 

Happy with the outcome. This drama can be rewatched then. And I would advised it with the viki subs the songs are subbed.

 

The OTP are an amazingly beautiful couple. But thank god they both act ( talking all you bad casting in other dramas here) and had a good story to tell.

 

NICE. Now I can download the whole thing and recommend it to my mum. 

[beebeep]

@NongpeeP thanks for posting the translation. Wow...I'm even more excited to watch the episode after watching your translation. 

 

This drama totally sends a good message that we should cherish our loved ones. Even when they are being difficult (such as JH's mom or CSH's mom), we should at least give them a chance and we should still continue to love them. What a heart warming message.

 

It's true that sometimes you don't need to argue viciously to change someone's hearts. JH wins his mom's approval through his consistent love...

 

I already know all of these messages but to implement it I think it's very difficult, which is very obvious from the reactions of all of us in this forum to JH's mom. We suggested JH to cut off his relationship and move out from the house. We suggested JH to confront his mom directly and immediately...

Should JH follow our suggestions, there will be more unnecessary drama ensued and his relationship with his mom is probably not going to be same...so Kudos to JH! You're indeed more mature than your age and I admit that you're more mature than me (even though I'm older) since I often react wrongly when those pressures arrive. You deserve to live happily with CSH.

 

 

[ponderings]

Hello! I have been a silent lurker in this forum. 

At first I did not check out this drama because I had to focus on my studies. 

However, I heard great things about the cinematography and acting under all the chaos of the age gap between PBG and SHK. 

I decided to give it a try because I always a sucker for beautiful cinematography. 

 

This story has some moments of typical kdrama moments.

But the dialogue amongst the characters is beautiful. Characters especially Soo Hyun and Jinhyuk learn to learn understand each other in a deeper level and love each other unconditionally. Their love contrasts with Soo Hyun's ex husband who is last seen in the living room where he is told his mom rejected his visitation appointment.  

 

The scenes between Soo Hyun and Jinhyuk's mom in the last two scenes were done so beautifully.

Soo Hyun understood Jinhyuk's mom. 

Jinhyuk's mom grew to understand her son and Soo Hyun.

The gesture of the mom giving Soo Hyun the side dishes was small yet precious. And with love, Soo Hyun held onto and came back to Jinhyun. With love, she also grew with her family, too. These moments taught me to love my family a little bit more. This drama taught me to guide life with love.

 

Thank you to the cast and crew for telling a beautiful story. And, lastly, thank you to all the people who commented in this forum. All of you made me appreciate this wonderful story even more!

@NongpeeP

KJH and his mom scene at the bus stop was so touching. But I was even more touched when she went to bring the side dishes to SH. So when JH gave back SH her pair of shoes, I was already crying. This time they're tears of happiness.  I won't rewatch episode 15 though, it's not good for my heart. I'll just rewatch episode 16 to my heart's content.  Thanks for the translations. Still waiting for subs.
