JJS and YYS at the background? 

 

Definitely...on the pole being crazy.hahaha

[stella_512 677]

Phew.. Had a lot of catching up to do  I totally love each and every bit of the discussion happening in the forum, everyone has something to contribute in terms of their insights about the episode and that makes me look at every character and understand them in a better way.

@40somethingahjumma I can't really express how much i love your posts, always a food for thought and so satisfying to read.

 

Here are my two cents on the episode 

Ik Jun- Songhwa - Totally love them but seeing what happened in the last episode i am convinced that it's going to be a long route for them. The situation and feelings they share are really complicated, not comprehensible even for a person like Songhwa, she really needs some time to sort everything out. I know IkJun is very vocal about what he feels (more about others though) but this time I think he needs to come clear on his own feelings. The way he is reacting seems triggered more by the situations than him really reflecting on himself about his own feelings. To be honest he needs better reasons to convince Songhwa about why he kept silent for all these years and confessing now. For me his insecurity to lose her to Captain Ahn, her motherly love for U-Ju ( Many instances where he felt that UJu needs a mother and he wont be able to do everything by himself- Songhwa taking care of UJu's fever, the transplant patient's wife and her son) and his fear of awkwardness among friends if he confessed then are simply not convincing enough. I love Ik Jun and I know he is a gem of a person but I could feel Songhwa yesterday. His feelings are deep, but he himself needs to realize that depth thoroughly. 

 

SeokHyung- MinHa- The real Buddha is here people. That one line about baby not being at fault from him and he stole the show for me. I was surprised how Jeong Won reacted there but will discuss that later. SH has been someone who has been shown as socially awkward but surprisingly he is the one who never shied away from speaking his heart out. His trust for his friends is commendable, that he shares every little detail about his life. Out of the lacking 5 he is the only one without a secret. Min Ha is totally right for him and kind of similar to him in this way.

 

Jun Wan- Ik Sun - Though their love line has been clear since the beginning I am still unsure about what to say. He is cute, supportive, understanding and she is apprehensive about a commitment as of now but loves him deeply. A long distance relationship?? Why not? A man whose relationships never lasted for more than 3 months is ready to wait for 3 years, and may be even more. For me, their story is a lesson- No matter what your past was like, its all about that one right person.

And Ik Jun knows it all

Jeong Won - Gyeoul - I can't even hide my affection for them  . Yesterday's episode was enough for me to keep rooting for them, i won't be bothered by any other theories  now. As many people have pointed out, his comfort around her does have something to do with the Proposal she got. He can finally let himself do what he really wanted in the first place without hurting her (that's what he thinks) and taking all the suffering by himself. Just like everyone I don't think Gyeoul is going to stop him. She doesn't need to. I won't say Gyeoul is the reason but she is definitely the trigger. She unsettles him with a silent understanding. She never argues or tries to prove her point, instead she learns and improves, kind of showing him a mirror but not in a negative sense . Perfect way to melt that stubbornness of him, he is someone who is so emotional and stubborn that he always had this feeling of  people being unable to understand his reasons, his dreams. She does somehow, his love for children, his emotional personality, his treatment of her even if its cold. Her acceptance just makes it tough for him, and makes him assess his decisions and his feelings. He is uncomfortable since this is not something he is used to. Either he goes or stays because of emotions, things will be back to square one. What is the assurance he won't feel the same later?, and then his resentments would be worse because of the chance he lost to pursue his childhood dream. He needs to make his decisions without being clouded by emotions. She can definitely help him do that, by making him realize that he cannot run away by just finding a replacement for himself. And he is anything but forgiving, as his character description also says that he holds grudges. His response to SH being considerate of the baby was not something expected of a person going for priesthood. 

I found something interesting on twitter, where knetz are saying that when Jeong Won is asking someone to take care of Gyeoul its the day when she got admitted in ER because of the anaphylactic reaction.

Guys, just now I read some comment in youtube who thinks that IJ and SHwa actually dating back then...and then after SHyeong conffessed they broke up

 

After read that comment it totally make sense (for me) because I read in this forum that SHwa little bit upset because of IJ conffession (I'm sorry...because I haven't watched the last episode yet so I mighy be wrong) so the theory might be make sense to

 

HP is plot by 3 season so I'm actually try to not have any expectation (afraid) because it can be change in the rest of the season and maybe because I'm in the minority of shipping my couple 

 

P.S. Literally I'm not Ik-Song shipper and sorry about my bad english hopefully you can understand what I mean

[ChunSungIm 18,195]

 

 

ahhh Please take care jang gyeol is from flashback when she she have allergies and fainted.so the theory about her stuff organized like that (because jeong won) is true .

[rafeusjanela 1,458]

I wish they sing Beautiful My Love by Urban Zakapa (슬기로운 의사생활 OST Part 5) in the last episode. (With a happier ending for IkSong & winter garden, perhaps?)

I should draw your attention to the BGM when Rosa was talking to Jang. It’s Pachelbel’s Canon, music that is often played during a wedding, usually when a bride walks down the aisle. 

 

My guess about the preview view when JWon said “Please take care of Dr.Jang” ~ I think he is probably speaking to the next department where Jang will be assisting next after helping him in pediatrics. 

I also read a theory that what he said in the preview may be when she was admitted for her allergic reaction and he may have told Minha to take care of her for him 

[kokodus 56,303]

I'm hoping that knetz are right about JW visiting GU when she was in ER for her allergic reaction. I don't want to jinx it but they have been right about everything so far...... the cigarette theory, Mama rosa's meeting with GU. But even if it doesn't come true, I'm happy with their progress. He has come a long way from "She is not my cup of tea" to " Please take good care of Dr. Jang".

I feel that with subtle hinting at IJ’s home, restaurant and noraebang, if SHwa still could not catch on this. Wow, I would be amused.....

 

I think she is just pretending and confuse over the two suitors.

 

I think she flat out rejected both of them.  Some people cannot get the meaning of the word "NO".  How long ago did she reject CH - and he kept at it till this episode.  Even in this episode she did not want to go out to dinner with him to give him the wrong idea.  But he wanted to speak informally to her as a birthday gift.  But what were his actions,  - he touched her as it she belonged to him.  That is crossing boundaries which should not be unless it is mutual.  She could not say anything and was flummoxed to do anything about it. 

 

IJ proposed at the dinner table in the previous episode - SHwa turned her head away and changed topics.  IJ did not get the hint that she was not interested.  Today's episode, he crossed boundary by tapping on her shoulder -  Too much skin ship without being asked.  In the NS meeting, he openly said that he likes her.  You can see SHwa eyes look towards the floor and she was embarrassed and even angry that he still did not understand that she did not have similar feelings like him.   She was even angry in the taxi.  So, after that she has been trying to stay away since she cannot reciprocate his feelings.  I feel really sorry for her that she is too nice and IJ and SHwa are friends for 20+ years and being friends he should have understood when she rejected him in the previous episode.  

 

Just my 2 cents.  Appreciate letting everyone have a fair share to discuss the topic on this forum.

It can't be Min ha though....she told Gyeo ul that "If he likes you he would have come" If this theory was true I think he would have come when Min ha was sleeping and maybe he told the nurse in charge to take good care of her. Actually some twitter people were guessing that it could be Dr. Bong as he is the ER incharge.

Interesting, seem possible.

 

I re-watch ep6 where IJ have a drink with SeokHyeong, on SHwa bday, IJ had arranged to meet her and when SHwa messaged him to ask on the meeting location. IJ replied he has urgent matters and decided to meet another day.

 

And we all know what happened next, IJ threw away the ring before going to the station to pick SHyeong up.

 

Actually this is no clear answer whether they used to date or IJ is using the ring to wish SHwa happy bday before confessing.

In ep2, SHwa only mentioned there is someone in her mind, so no definite answer.

 

However I am leaning towards they did not date in the past, just did not have the chance to confess and miss the boat after that.

Embarrassed yes

Angry no

 

More of frustrated or annoyed.

It is not angry. 

 

Did she rejected him when she asked him to eat up before he mentioned it is raining? I don't think so.

I think it's a bit different with Iksong though, Songhwa has not reject Ikjun yet, I think Songhwa is a very straight forward person, if it's no then it's no, just like Seokhyung and Captain Ahn, but she never said no to Ikjun, at least not yet.

 

and Ikjun actually didn't properly confess to her  the one in ep 10 was bit too indirect and the team dinner cannot really be considered direct confession tbh

[dairymilks 2,434]

Songhwa and Ikjoon may need some time apart. I hate how we always end up relating it to the previous works, but I just noticed that couples in Shin PD's dramas spend a period of being away from each other and come back with a clearer understanding of how they feel.

 

Spoiler

1. Yoon Jae and Shi Won (Reply 1997)

Yoon Jae confessed to her on the night of her birthday, left her with the ring, and told her to throw it away. Shi Won asked if they could be friends again, Yoon Jae responds with "Friends? You've got to be kidding me." They entered college and never communicated again to the point of avoiding each other during family reunions, with Yoon Jae coming up with a gazillion of excuses not to see her. 

 

Six years later, 2005, they saw each other again at a coffee shop and around that time, Shi Won was already having feelings for him. 

 

2. Na Jung and Trash/Jae Joon (Reply 1994)

Compared to our other ships, they started dating pretty early, but things didn't end well because of their long distance relationship. Na Jung and Trash broke up without having a chance to settle their relationship and also spent a few months (or more than a year) without any contact. When they met again at a coffee shop in 1999, Na Jung explained that she finally understood why they broke up like that (Trash always felt the need to be the reliable "Oppa" in the relationship, rather than being a partner to Na Jung. He only wanted to show her his good side, but Na Jung also wanted him to depend on her as much as she depended on him). 

 

A few weeks later, Trash called Na Jung in the middle of the night asking her if she could come over because he was sick. It was the first time that Trash became vulnerable like that, so Na Jung rushed to his apartment and they got back together.

 

3. Deok Sun, Taek, & Jung Hwan

Deok Sun's situation was by far the most complex out of the 3 women and they also accurately depicted the feelings of a girl going through adolescence. She had a crush on 3 of her male friends, and it also took her a few years to realize that she was in love with Taek. Deok Sun also found out that the kiss they shared back then was real, and turns out that Taek loved her, too.

 

Jung Hwan endured a lot of heartbreak in this show and it also took him a lot of time to finally understand where he went wrong. He didn't bother expressing how he truly felt for Deok Sun before, and he was still very indecisive 5 years later, which led to his demise and regret over the things he could've done in the past. Jung Hwan came to the realization that he also had to be upfront about his feelings instead of burying it.

 

It seems to me that prior to their employment at Yulje, Ik Joon and Song Hwa didn't see each other frequently (they & the rest of the gang worked in different hospitals so it could've been impossible). It was only until Ik Joon got divorced and Song Hwa got a biopsy that they began spending a lot of time together. Remember how Episode 6 became a turning point for Ik Joon? This thread may (since we have no idea how Song Hwa truly feels) also serve as an explanation for the change in dynamic between these two. Song Hwa only used to smile at Ik Joon's jokes, but in Episode 9 she let herself loose: 

 

I agree with what everyone said here that Song Hwa is pretty confused and shocked right now. If we can indeed confirm that her first love was Ik Joon, it will also be pretty understandable for her to think, "Why now?" She needs to come to Seokcho to sort her feelings out, not to mention that reciprocating her feelings for Ik Joon would change her life. It's unlike the aforementioned couples who were only in their 20s; Ik Joon is a single dad who does his best to make time for his son. Song Hwa would also need to be a mother to Uju and the amount of responsibility that needs is no joke (she may have to give up camping on weekends). 

 

Maybe something huge will happen in 2020, isn't this the year they will all turn 40?

I also think so.

 

Is there anger? I re-watch that scene several time but I could only sense annoyed or frustrated.

Yeah, it seemed more like that. I agree with you. Confusion also works. For us, we know that what Ik-jun said in the dining table scene is a confession, but Song-hwa doesn't. It still sounds vague. She may have interpreted it as Ik-jun enjoying her company as a best friend, as an emotional and mental anchor he can rely on. The drinking match was the first time he admitted it outright; unfortunately for both of them, it isn't under better circumstances.

 

I'm relieved that Ik-jun didn't back down this time. I think him admitting otherwise would be more detrimental to their relationship, especially at this point. Had he said otherwise, it would've confused Song-hwa more, especially considering their conversation in the previous episode.  He would've shot himself in the foot.

Im just thinking that there may be plot twist on why jeongwon want to stop working. Either he is sick or wanted to become doc at another place. Or maybe he want to continue studyy..

I also think he is sick with his frequent headache and painkiller intake, but don't worry Jwon you have GW to look after you
