as a 17 y/o, you give me heedo vibes ;-; i hope you learned a lot from the show, even me being in my mid 20s did but god this show just made me feel some type of way, and sad that these two beautiful people who cared and love each other unconditionally somehow just disappeared from each other's lives for good... even when they came back to discuss things further, and they continued to take bits of each other into their lives. thats so.. *sigh* anyways i liked your thoughts on the end & agreed

aw, hello! funny bc my sister thought i was very similar to seungwan and yi jin, but im giving you hee do vibes! that made me smile, she's honestly one of the best female leads i have ever come across. i did learn a lot, considering the circumstances where im now dealing with quite terrible and confusing friendship breakups since the past year and i have never felt more lonely. this show gave me hope honestly, and i am very thankful it accompanied me as i am moving on for the better. it made me realize that time is the biggest villain in life, and all we can do is to live and do what we think is right and love those around us with no regrets. taking the risk is always worth a shot, bc like what yu rim said, we might eventually lose something or someone dear to us but what matters is that we had it and had them at one point.

i feel very heartbroken about yi jin and hee do, and i feel very embarrassed to say that i bawled my eyes out listening to taylor swift's "sad, beautiful, tragic", "come back be here" and "the last time". ( i recommend you listening to it even if youre not a fan or a casual listener! it's like she wrote these songs for them so accurately. i think i had finally let it all out and feel okay now )

ig breakups like that does happen irl to couples people thought will stay together, but in my mind, i feel as though they havent really gotten over each other, because first loves arent really something you can forget easily. it's hee do and yi jin we are talking abt that it's so impossible you know? also, it assumingly feels like the writer got carried away writing the most beautiful relationship that ever existed between fictional characters that she forgot her goal to make the sad ending bearable with reasonable and easy to understand reasons of a falling out, considering she had inspiration from jaurim's twenty-five, twenty-one. the ending was half-assed and really rushed, it felt so out of character, and felt like it was just a hasty excuse for a sad ending when we damn well know yi jin and hee do can fix and save their relationship if they tried hard enough as better people but well... the damage has been done.

kim tae ri even pleaded the writer to change the ending, can you believe? knowing she stars in quite grim films and a drama once, she saw how yi jin and hee do didn't quite deserve a very devastating ending for them but ig kwon do eun was hell bent to stay loyal to the inspiration she caught from jaurim. nam joo hyuk was quite sad filming the part where yi jin congratulates hee do for her wedding... and he hasnt posted any single thing about the finale in his ig acc. we can see how it affected the actors, because they worked hard for the drama for 7 months. all i could really do rn is hope they get recasted. just imagine the success producers would be having with them as leads in another series or a movie that suit them well, as they created such a buzz among knetz and the whole world >< ( better be something phenomenal since tae ri is meticulous abt her projects )

anyway this was quite a long answer, im so sorry, since im still trying to let go of this drama. hang in there anon! all we could do is accept that this drama did steer so many mixed emotions, but ig that's the beauty of it. if ever there is a real life hee do and yi jin, i hope they never part bc a love like that is so rare and otherworldly that they should make sure to provide great care for it. hehe take care! ^^

posting it on this dead acc bc why not.

yeah this korean series is definitely one for the books, honest to god. the ending was just so full of flaws that i cannot wrap my head around the obviously unstable reason why theyd have to breakup. i knew it from the very start that it is steering towards a sad ending as everyone calls it, since the show was based on a song that mourns the loss of a first love. it was clear as daylight, yet viewers were in denial and making up reasons that they will end up together, leading them to get hurt in the end bc it hits them hard. i came to terms with it weeks before when i was reading the lyrics, and ended up being very curious of the ending's outcome and how their breakup would be executed. im not lying if i said i was hoping for a nice ending to soothe the tragedy of it ( maybe present hee do meeting present yi jin and having a meaningful conversation about the past to finally gain full closure ), but it wasnt really given to us openly, only showing hee do's trip to nostalgia lane and what she could have really said to baek yi jin so many years before.

i truly and deeply understand hee do and her lonely sentiments about bearing with an absentee lover just like what her mom put her through all her life and i wholly sympathize with yi jin's empathetic soul destroying his mental state through the course of his job, that he didnt want to pull hee do into his terrible demise and depression going on ( i was legit screaming "gO get therapy babe" to my screen the first 30 mins of the finale ). i openly sympathize with them. miscommunication obviously stems and results in this bc they have different goals that involve each other. hee do envisions a future with him where he's present at most times and shares everything with her and yi jin wants to shield and protect hee do from hurtful situations bc she reminds him of innocence ( he dreamt of hee do in the beach. summer and her whole existence is his idea of fragrant youth is what i interpreted from it– his light at the end of the tunnel– and now it was slipping out of his hands as hee do is now properly growing up ). their arguments didnt mesh well, adding it up with their secretive nature of keeping their feelings among themselves when they first sensed their relationship was already going downhill.

i just... i just couldnt understand why they cannot be together in the very end. surely if they gave themselves time and tried together again as better people after what? 2 years? maybe? that's more realistic. they belong to each other and they recognize their homes as each other. now they are wandering around for the rest of their lives, forever drunk in the hazy dream of their nostalgic youth and crystal blue waves that form a picture of their younger selves. the fact that it pierces through hee do's soul is hurtful enough, also with yi jin who considered hee do as his first love despite being in highschool relationships before. the ending just doesnt make sense for these two people who obviously deserved to be with each other. but... i guess it's for the best. hee do grew up and succeeded to aim for her success and yi jin finally found direction and purpose in his life through his job. they were nobodies the first time they met, and through the support, love, and care they gave each other helped both of them become their own person.

final verdict: the premise of the ending didn't justify the created narrative of the show. if kwon do eun was aiming to capture the perfect realistic ending that sends a love letter to lost youth, she should've executed it in a way where the audience wasnt left wondering in the end, mouthing "that's it?" ( the biggest flaw was the timeline too. if they spent more time at their 21 and 25 ages, it might have explained a fuller narration about their breaking point and sculpted a stronger reason for their falling out, unlike how we just witnessed it in half and a full episode. a very rushed ending that really ruined the show ). full closure to all the characters could have been at least given as we became attached to them for a whole two months and 16 episodes.

nevertheless, the first 13 episodes ( i'll add 15 bc i liked their lovey dovey moments ) was a pretty distraction from this mundane life. as a 17 year old, i found myself loving all the characters wholeheartedly and learned lots from all the lessons they shared with the audience. 25 21! for the very last time, summer belongs to us! you will be dearly missed <3

#twenty five twenty one #kim tae ri and nam joo hyuk made it bearable with their acting... they gave all their 100 percent til the very end #id be lying if i said i dont want them to be paired again bc they match and compliment each other so well #brb time to write a better ending #taeyang squad... i wonder about what they are doing in present time now. disappointed in what the writer had in store for my girl seungwan #all of the cast were spectacular too #i hope new doors would be opened for them

when hayao miyazaki said that true love was two people inspiring each other to live…recognizing just how hard living is, putting one foot in front of the other every day, how easy it is to lose our passion for it…… that’s the real shit
