In which you are interrogated and Chan comes to rescue.
Your mind is blank. There are no thoughts inside your head, mainly cause you still haven't grasped the situation. Your ex-husband, the man you spent over 7 years with, a criminal. And not just a criminal per se, but also facing a 20-year prison sentence, probably even more. The man you loved for years, the man that provided for you, the man that cheated on you and left you alone in the dust.
There is no doubt in your mind that Jae-Min is a bad husband, maybe even a worse person for what he did to you. But a criminal? That thought just doesn't get into your head.
"Did you know about this?" Changbin suddenly asks from beside you. Apparently, the news of your ex-husband getting arrested is the best hangover cure. All the boys were half-asleep just minutes ago but seem to be just fine now that the intention behind this meeting has been revealed.
"I had no clue," you tell them honestly. That the boys assume you had some knowledge of this is understandable. You would have asked the same thing if you were in their shoes.
How could you not have known this?
"I mean, I did find it strange sometimes how much money he actually made. But I never questioned it," you continue, your eyebrows darting together. Was there a hint? Was there ever an indication of his criminal activities? You can't think of one.
As the news report continues at the end of the hall, everybody surrounding you still glued to the screen, your head swings around to look at Chan. Your assumption that he's looking at you turns out to be correct as your eyes meet his concerned one. His mouth moves, silently asking you if you're okay, to which you nod. Apparently, moments of shock give you the ability to read lips.
As you try convincing Chan that you're indeed fine just by looking at him, you notice some motion at the side of the room. The doors that you came through just minutes ago are opening again. To your surprise, stepping through the doorway aren't any latecomers, though.
The first person you notice is Solar. The woman you encountered the first day of your internship steps out of the hallway and into the room. Even on a Saturday morning, she looks as beautiful as ever, dressed in tight jeans and a shirt that she has neatly tucked under the waistband of her pants.
Behind her is a woman you've never seen before. Not at this company, not in your life. The brunette is wearing a grey suit, her hair tightly made into a bun on top of her head. Something about her screams authority, maybe the way she scans the room, her face in a thoughtful frown.
Solar quickly looks around and starts walking as soon as she's spotted the person she's apparently searching for. Your eyes widen the moment you realise that they're heading towards you. And not just you as in the group of people surrounding you, but specifically you.
Solar's eyes are on you, all the way from the entrance over. The slight smile on her face can only calm you down so far, seeing the second woman is still scanning all the people in this room. The woman's looks and demeanour are intimidating, and you can feel your heart beat faster with every step the two women take.
Felix seems to notice just how stiff you are beside him, his head turning to look at what it is that is making you so uncomfortable. Before he can do anything to calm you down, though, the duo has arrived in front of you.
"Hello, y/n," Solar greets you, her white teeth nearly blinding you. "How are you?"
"I'm-" you notice the second woman staring at you, her gaze making you freeze. "I'm fine."
"Perfect. This is Detective Kim. She'd like to talk to you for a second. Would you mind coming with us?" Detective Kim holds her hand out towards you, forcing a smile onto her face. You hesitantly shake her hand as you nod your head at Solar's question.
The only reason you agree is that Solar's comforting smile is calming you down. If this were anything bad – if you were in any sort of trouble – she wouldn't be smiling as nicely as she is. Or would she? You hardly know that woman, but for some reason, you trust her.
As you walk behind the women towards the hallway, you look back at Felix and the boys before turning towards Chan. His eyebrows are drawn together as he watches you being taken out of the room by a woman he's obviously never seen as well.
As soon as you are out in the hallway and round a corner – for privacy reasons, you assume – you spot two uniformed police officers. When they see Detective Kim, they straighten their backs, making it obvious who's the one in charge here.
"Thank you. We got it from here," Detective Kim tells Solar with another fake smile.
"Are you sure? I think maybe someone from HR should be here for this?" Solar points out after quickly shooting you a look of concern. "I'm sure you are an excellent detective, but I think some moral support can't hurt."
The detective looks over at you, probably to get your input on the situation.
By now, you've gathered that this must be about your ex-husband. Even though you would love some moral support for whatever the police could want from you, you'd rather not have someone else involved. Especially not someone who doesn't even know about your connection to the rival company.
"It's fine," you quickly respond, looking over at Solar with a weak smile. "Thank you for your concern, but it's okay. I can handle this."
"You sure you don't want someone with you?" she questions again. For all she knows, this could be about someone close to you dying or other tragic news.
"Yes, it's fine," you reply, trying to look a little more sure about your words. "I think I know what this is about."
"Okay then. I guess I'll leave you to it. If there's anything I can help you with, don't hesitate to let me know," Solar speaks, her trademark smile back on her face. You nod before she turns around and makes her way back to where everybody else is located.
"So, Mrs Jeong," Detective Kim speaks up as soon as you are alone again – or as alone as you can be with two policemen standing beside you.
"Oh, I'm not Mrs Jeong anymore. My ex-husband and I are divorced," you quickly explain. The woman takes a look at her notes on her little notepad.
"I'm sorry, Ms," she corrects herself, apparently finding the information. "Anyway, I'm sure you have heard about your ex-husband by now," Detective Kim continues, pulling out a pen. "We'd like to ask you a few questions about that."
Why there are two uniformed police officers with Detective Kim, you don’t know. The simple task of asking you a few questions could be done by the detective alone, you assume, but still, they must be there for a reason.
Maybe there is a protocol for questionings like this, forcing them to be here. Maybe, they’re here as witnesses so that you couldn’t deny anything you say. Or maybe, they’re here in case you try to flee. There is no way you could simply run away from them if the three of them were to follow you. You’d be caught faster than an animal in a cage.
But why would they assume you’d run away? Do they think you have anything to do with this?
If Changbin and the boys thought so, the police surely could suspect something similar.
“First of all, have you ever seen your ex-husband with any of these men?” The detective asks you, showing you a list of names in her notebook. You quickly scan over them, recognising each one.
“Those are my ex-husbands business partners. I met them at a few events, mainly at J&J’s headquarters. They never really talked to me, though,” you explain, knowing they only saw you as the wife of their partner. Nothing more.
“And did you ever overhear any of their business conversations? Any talks about money or important trips they had planned?”
“I don’t remember. Maybe, once or twice. But I’m not sure.”
The questioning continues for a few minutes. You try to answer to the best of your abilities, but the memories are blurry. The image of your ex-husband's arrest keeps popping up in your head, and surprisingly, you wonder if you should even answer certain questions.
You don’t remember it all clearly. So, maybe answering by just what you can remember about Jae-Min – his bad sites so much more vivid than the good ones – you can’t help but think that maybe, you’re distorting the evidence. Though he’s hurt you so much in the past, you wouldn’t want him to suffer more just cause you’re holding a grudge you’re not even aware of.
“Are you alright, Ms?” Detective Kim asks you once she notices your nervous state. Obviously, your confusion and overthinking aren’t as internal as you thought.
“You have got to believe me. I had nothing to do with this.” The statement is rushed. You know, the moment you open your mouth, it must make you look more suspicious to the trained eye. But you needed to get it out, now that there are witnesses. “I mean, I was married to Jae-Min, but he kept his business affairs mainly to himself. All I did was protocol some meetings from time to time, but I never once overheard anything about this. I'm innocent.”
“Ms, calm down, please,” one of the men tells you, catching your wrist in his firm grasp. It hurts you, and you regret using your arms so heavily for emphasis on your innocence. “Maybe, we should cuff her.”
“There’s no need for that. Let go of the woman,” Detective Kim warns the officer, who obeys only through gritted teeth. You're sure she would have apologised for the unjustified aggression of her colleague if a new voice hadn't interrupted then and there.
"y/n? Are you alright?" The moment you turn around, you feel your breathing calm down at the sight of Chan jogging towards you. "Did that man hurt you?"
Chan softly takes your hand in his, inspecting the reddening skin of your wrist. His jaw tightens as he looks at the officer, so you decide to interject before Chan would do something that could get him arrested.
"I'm fine," you tell him, faking a smile. The skin still stings, but it doesn't hurt too bad, so it's only a half-lie.
"Excuse me, who are you?" the detective asks Chan, who – despite calming down – still keeps his eyes on the uniformed man.
"I'm Bang Chan," Only now, Chan turns his head, looking at Detective Kim. His good manners are forcing him to look at her, while you know on the inside, he's still riled up about the officer harming you. In any other situation, you would have swooned over his protectiveness. "I'm y/n's immediate boss."
"Mr Bang, I'm glad you're concerned for your employee, but this is an investigation. If you'd please let us do our job now, and give us some privacy." Detective Kim says sternly. Her eyes would have cut right through you, but Chan doesn't seem to be as intimidated by her as you are.
"It's fine, Chan. I got this," you tell him, not wanting to drag him into this. You only just got together, so it's only fair to not want there to be any drama already.
"I don't doubt that," he tells you with a soft smile before turning back to the detective. "And I don't doubt that you'll be doing your job correctly, either. I bet you already informed my employee about her rights. Say, her right not to speak to you unless there is a lawyer present. Or her right not to talk to you at all, seeing she's the ex-wife of your suspect. Or how she's only obligated to talk to you if she refuses to use both those rights."
How he knows they haven't done that, you have no idea. Also, you're a little surprised to find out he knows about those rights at all. You've never heard of this before, so how did he?
"Erm-" the detective clears her throat as she visibly shifts her weight from one leg onto the other. She seems to be uncomfortable, obviously taken aback by his words. "I'm afraid I forgot to do that."
"I see," Chan speaks, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "Well, I guess this is over then."
For a few seconds, uncomfortable silence surrounds you. The two officers beside Detective Kim look at her expectantly, probably thinking she'd have some ace up her sleeves. A sigh coming from her mouth breaks the silence, and you can't help but relax, knowing this is over.
"Fine," she finally agrees. "I'll have someone call you for questioning at the department. You'll have enough time to contact a lawyer until then. Come on, guys."
With those words, Detective Kim turns on her heels – the two minions following her out of the building. It is only then that you turn towards Chan, who immediately pulls you into a hug. You can feel your heart rate decrease after a few seconds, now beating in unison with Chan's.
"You alright?" Chan asks you softly as you feel the words vibrate all the way through his chest to your cheek.
"Yes," you agree, honestly this time. "Thank you. I had no idea I had the right not to talk to the police."
"Most people don't."
"How come you do?" you ask, your head still on his chest.
"A friend of mine, Jamie, works as an officer. She told me how most times, cops don't inform witnesses about their rights so that they can get as much information out of them as possible. Even though that could incriminate innocent witnesses." Chan explains before looking down at you. "But since they confessed that they forgot to inform you about your rights, a lawyer can make anything you said invalid. Even if you said something to incriminate yourself."
"I'm afraid the lawyer-thing might be a problem," you tell him as you distance yourself a little, so you can look at him. "Every lawyer I know, I know through Jae-Min. And my divorce lawyer was terrible at his job. I nearly lost everything. Even the things I brought intothe marriage."
"I see," Chan looks thoughtful for a second before speaking up again. "I could ask another friend of mine. He's an excellent lawyer, and he owes me. So he'll do it at a reasonable rate. But only if you want my help. I'm sure you can find a way to make everything work yourself."
The fact that he offers you his help, not forcing it onto you, makes you nod. You've been with someone before who didn't think you were capable of making your own decisions. If Chan had forced you to take his help, it would have made you feel small. Like you're unable to self-function as a person.
"I'll give Jinyoung a call as soon as this is over. Maybe, he'll be available on Monday, so you can figure everything out soon."
"Good thing, you have so many friends, huh?" you ask, trying to break the still lingering tension.
"I guess so," he agrees before shifting, so he could hold you by your waist. "Speaking of friends, I'm afraid Jungkook knows about us."
"How so?" It has only been like 20 minutes since you entered the building. Jungkook must be better than you thought.
"Apparently, he came by my place this morning. He wanted to check up on me since I didn't respond to his texts. At the front door, he ran into my neighbour, who seems to be a really light sleeper."
As Chan's words hang in the room, you wonder what his neighbour's sleeping habits have to do with you two. That is until Chan raises his eyebrows suggestively, and you gasp at the realisation.
The neighbour heard you.
"Oh god." You push your face against Chan's chest in embarrassment, shaking your head in denial. "Felix knows, too," you respond shortly after, your voice muffled by Chan's shirt. "He remembered the painting above your headboard from when he brought over your dry laundry."
"I guess we're even then," Chan jokes, making you laugh at the situation.
“Keeping this secret is gonna be harder than I thought,” you point out with a sigh as he leans down, giving you a soft peck.
“Yeah, but it’ll be worth it. We get to figure everything out before everybody else is all up in our business,” Chan reminds you. “Apart from that, I’m excited to get to know you without interruptions.”
“Me too,” you agree, pulling him in for another kiss.
You could have stayed like this for a long time. Just talking to Chan and kissing him every once in a while is enough to distract you from the drama. Sadly, voices coming from the end of the hall forced you to stop sooner than you wanted.
“Sir, I really don’t think you need to search for Chan. He’s just using the bathroom. He’ll be back in no time,” you hear Jungkook from around the corner just as you hear a second pair of feet rush around it.
“A, there he is,” the company’s president Cho exclaims once he sees Chan standing beside you. Thankfully, you could get some distance between you just in time. “My favourite Junior.”
“No offence,” Jungkook mockingly adds under his breath, so only you can hear it as he comes to a halt beside you. “None taken.”
You laugh a little at this harsh but funny betrayal. Cho doesn’t hear Jungkook’s mocking, opening his arms as if to give Chan a hug. There's a bottle of what you assume to be champagne in Cho's right hand, a couple of glasses in the other.
“What a day, am I right?” the short man asks as he hands the glasses to Jungkook so that he can open the bottle. When he does, there is a loud pop before some of the liquid spills over the rim. With a bright grin on his face, he fills up the two glasses handing one to Chan.
“Yeah, I guess,” Chan agrees hesitantly, taking the glass. He throws a quick, sorry look towards Jungkook but the black-haired beauty simply waves him off.
“I’m telling you right now, with J&J out of the running and the new product raring to go, we’ll be cornering the market in no time." Cho's voice is cheerful as he clinks his glass with Chan's. “Especially paired with that campaign of yours. This is a pure gold mine.”
Chan takes a small sip out of the glass, whereas Cho empties half of his in one big gulp. His enthusiasm would have pulled you in if your ex-husband’s arrest hadn’t been the cause of it. A simple look at you puts a stop to the victory celebration, at least for a while.
“I’m sorry. Where are my manners?” Cho metaphorically asks as he holds a hand out towards you, slowly shaking it when you hold out yours. “I’m Cho. I don’t think we have been properly introduced.”
“We haven’t, actually,” you agree with a small smile. “I’m y/n. I’m an intern in the marketing department.”
“y/n. Why does that ring a bell?” Cho asks thoughtfully.
“I must have mentioned her name when I introduced the campaign to you. y/n actually came up with the basic outline of it,” Chan tells his boss, who seems to remember the conversation.
“Oh, yes. I remember. Extraordinary work. We can really use bright lights like you in this company,” the man tells you, making your face turn red. You can feel the warmth in your cheeks as you look down to hide it.
“Thank you,” you quickly answer.
“Do you know what you’ll be doing after this internship?”
“I don’t really have plans yet. But I thought about maybe going to university. I haven’t really had the chance to do that yet.”
“Is that so?” Cho questions before looking at Chan. “Does she qualify for our dual studies program?”
“Dual studies program?” you ask, finally letting your eyes met Chan’s again. You don’t want to look suspicious, so you've avoided eye contact until now.
“It’s the program Jungkook, and I started here with. You’d be studying at a local university while also working here part-time,” Chan explains. “It’s a lot, but it’s the best way to learn new things while getting to use them in a work environment. You’d love it.”
You have to admit, that sounds really good. You've always been better at practically doing things. If you want to have the ability to take a step or two up the corporate letter, you need the education, though. So, if you don't want to start your career at 30-something, this seems to be the perfect opportunity to get a head start.
"Just think about it. The application deadline is in two months," Cho informs you and you nod.
"Thank you. I will think about it," you agree as Cho turns back towards Chan.
"Okay then. Let's head back inside. I bet the celebration has already started. We wouldn't want to miss out on that, would we?"
As Jungkook and the president head back towards the hall full of people you can hear from this distance, Chan pulls you back for a second. His eyes stay on yours, a smile creeping onto his lips as he leans down to plant one last kiss onto yours.
"We should be more careful. Cho nearly caught us."
"How about we make a new rule?" you tell him as you take a step back. "No PDA in the workplace. Not even if we're on our own."
"I think that's for the better," Chan agrees as he leans down again, a smile forming on his lips. "That was the last one, I promise."
¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤ ¤
"How long until you gotta get back to campus?"
The words come out of his mouth in thin breaths. Even if there were 200 people in his office, you'd be the only person who can hear them. They send a shiver down your spine as he breathes them against the wet skin of your neck.
"About an hour," you answer just as quietly. Your hands are buried in Chan's hair as your head is thrown back in bliss. The way he has you this weak in minutes is embarrassing. You don't want to admit that Chan can make you feel like this, just as fast as the first time, maybe even quicker.
"You know," he starts, drawing away from you so he can look you in the eyes. His hands keep their firm grip around your neck. "If we hurry, we can be back home in 10 minutes. I could take you to campus right after. I'd be back in an hour tops."
A light laugh comes out of your mouth as you drop your legs from around his hips. The coldness of his desk presses against your back where your top has slid up. How nothing else has made its way below your body, you don't know.
"You really wanna go home to have sex?" you ask, sitting up a little. Your elbows keep the distance to Chan's desk at a minimum.
"Well yeah," he answers, coming back down to press an eager kiss to your lips. "I assume we can do it in my office, but last time that happened, Jisung interrupted us. The poor boy nearly had a heart attack."
The memory would have embarrassed you a few months ago, but Jisung's 21 now. He could handle a little nakedness. Even if it was you and Chan at 9 in the morning.
"So, what's it gonna be?" Chan asked, looking you deep into the eyes as his free hand wandered down your torso. "A 10-minute drive, or a dead guy?"
"How about-" you stop to kiss him again, this time sitting up in the process until Chan's standing straight in front of your body. "I do what I came here to do, and we finish this tonight. You know, at home."
"Ugh, you're no fun," Chan complains teasingly. Still, he gets the hint and retrieves his hands from your body. "You come over during lunch and get me all hot and bothered, just to leave me all riled up."
"Hey, it's not like I came here with anything in mind. All I wanted was to say hi while waiting for the boys to finally finish up their work," you explain as you start buttoning your shirt again. A few of the buttons must have come loose during your heavy make-out session. Chan does the same, though leaving two buttons undone as he always does.
"Remind me again, why do you choose to spend time with them over spending time with me?" Chan questions as he rearranges the things on his desk.
"That's not fair. I spend a lot of time with you. I mean, we're living together," you try reasoning, knowing he's only playing around. He would never actually complain about you spending time with your friends. Even if it means that he would have to offer up some of his time. With you working part-time and studying Marketing at university, there's only so much time in the week you can spend with your friends. "Apart from that, I'm telling them the news today."
"What news?" Chan questions, and it is only now that you start getting a little annoyed. He's like a literal child, asking all these ifs and whys even though he knows what you mean exactly. You shoot him a look to tell him just that, and thankfully, he drops the act. "Oh, you're telling them that you're my ex-girlfriend now. I understand."
"I would really appreciate you stop calling me that."
"Why? It's only the truth," he points out, making you huff.
"Chan," you speak up, putting your hands onto his shoulders for emphasis. "We did not break up. We got engaged. That is a huge difference."
"But is it not true that you are no longer my girlfriend, but my fiancée?" If he keeps going, you think to yourself, you're gonna leave him for real. "Fine. I'll stop. You're really no fun."
"If I really was no fun, would you have proposed to me under tears?"
You pull your hand up to show him the ring on your finger, reminding him of the evening about a week prior. After getting onto his knees at your birthday dinner, he could barely get a sound out with all the tears streaming down his face. The constant hiccupping made understanding him even more problematic. Only when you said yes before he could even ask the question did he stop talking - or trying to.
"I'm just playing. I love you very much. Even if you're a little stuck up sometimes," Chan mocks you as he pulls you in for a hug.
"Thank you. How did I ever get so lucky?" The sarcasm in your voice is thick, but he only laughs at that. After months of being together, you couldn't help but adopt some of his traits. Annoying or not, you couldn't help it.
A knock on the door pulls you out of your hug, and your heads shift towards the door. The blinds Chan has bought a few months prior are closed, so all you can see is the person's shoes and lower legs. Still, you can tell from the slight inside-tilt of the knees who's behind the door. You could tell those anime-legs out of a line-up.
"Y/n. We're ready when you are," Jisung calls through the closed door. Apparently, the incident a few months back has left its imprints.
"Bye, I'll see you tonight," you tell Chan with one last kiss before you make your way over to the door.
"Love you," he calls as you open the door.
"Love you more," you answer a little quieter as you throw him a kiss.
"Sorry, I didn't want to interrupt anything. Again," Jisung apologises as his hand comes to his neck.
"It's fine. We weren't doing anything. Just talking," you lie, getting a laugh from Felix.
"Yeah, sure. That's why the blinds were closed, and the glass was all foggy," Felix jokes, making you shake your head.
"Anyways. Let's grab something to eat. I got some news," you tell the boys, reminding them of why you're here today.
Usually, during the weeks of lessons, you hardly show up at work. That's how your double-studies program works. A few weeks of courses were followed by a few weeks of work. A constant circle of learning and adapting, of some sort.
"You know what I just realised?" Changbin asks, leaning against your desk right next to where Hyunjin's standing. "This is the first news in months that's not related to the trial."
"You're right. God, I'm glad that's over," Felix points out with an annoyed expression.
The past couple of months, all you could ever talk about was the trial. Jae-Min had been accused of a few different felonies in connection to his criminal activities. Tax fraud and money laundry had just been the tip of the iceberg, as you had to find out during the weeks of legal proceedings.
Even though his defence team had tried to get him out - even blaming some of the offences onto his co-workers or you - your ex got what he deserves.
20 years with the prospect of parole after 15. It's fair to say that you wouldn't be hearing from Jae-Min for a long time.
"This news is way better, believe me," you say as you play with the ring behind your back.
Admittedly, it still feels a little weird to be wearing one again, but this feeling would fade. And that is only due to who gave you this ring and what the meaning behind it is.
It isn't just the promises of providing for you or taking all the decisions off you, so you don't have to bother.
It's Chan's promise of being with you even if the first few months are spent at your ex's trial. It's Chan's promise of being with you even if it meant having to offer his time with you so you could spend time with your friends. And it's the promise of being with you until the very end. No lies, no cheating, no leaving. This is the real deal.

Running Man Ep 278 English Sub
Tumblr media
KMazing – Entering the year 2017 Running Man faced many problems. Such that, it was notified that the year 2017 will be the last year Running Man. Because of the issue of the dismissal of Song Jihyo and Kim Jongkook at the end of 2016 is horrendous and unacceptable. Finally, the PD and Member of Running Man agreed to end the program, Then before the end, the concept is built around a special episode where each member is given their own episode to be planned.
Running Man Eng Sub Full
Running Man Eng Sub Kshowonline
Running Man Ep 515 Eng Sub
Also read : Best Knowing Brothers Episodes of All Time (Up to 2018)
But in the end, Running Man continues on air after the dismissal of the “troublemaker PD”, the famous variety show even add 2 new members, namely Yang Sechan and Jeon Somin which turn out to be a huge improvement. Still, like in 2016 where Running Man’s rating is still not as good as in its heyday. Slowly but surely Running Man’s Rating improved once again, at the end of the year the program achieved 2 digit rating. Well, which episode is the best in 2017 and 2018 so far? Here are the 20 best Episodes, exclaimed as the funniest from Running Man of 2017-2018. Enjoy!
Running Man welcomes the comeback of SNSD in this episode. As the experienced girlband get involved, there are a lot of funny scenes presented here. Like when the member has to choose their partner where Yuri is the unlucky one to be the partner of Ji Sukjin. Not only that, we will also see the SNSD members show their dance skills and aegyo and you will be melted with the aegyo power by Sunny. For me, the funniest scene is where Haha is always being reprimanded by her partner Soo Young. The theme of this episode is actually looking for the Bad Girls throughout the mission. Who will be 3 girls that became the Spy?

The episode that took the Couple Race theme welcome the arrival of many beautiful and cute guest stars. One of them is Jeon Somin who will then become the latest member of Running Man. Just as in Episode 224 where Kwangsoo and Somin became a couple, this episode both of them also became it too. But as predicted, rather than a romantic moment this couple show a lot of betrayal moment that will make us laugh our *ss off. Kwangsoo who had been known as a good traitor and schemer got betrayed by Somin, twice.
Episode 334 is Kim Jongkook Week. Where the Running Man members have to help Jongkook while he is having a romantic date with a girl. They also perform various games that will help determine the fate of Jongkook blind date trip. The concept is really touching and easy to “digest” and such romance is needed for the vivid viewer of Running Man, since the Monday Couple have separated, the romance was so lacking throughout the episodes, this particular episode at least give us a break and add more dynamic toward the concept of member’s week.
In the episode of this new year’s edition, the Running Man members are getting their prediction about their lives in 2017. Not only that, their health is also checked through the condition of their eyes. This is the usual concept that has been repeated like two or three times before, the funny part of these New Year episodes is when the members get the answer about their luck for that year which of course varied. This is also the first time Song Jihyo and Kim Jongkook is coupled in a romantic way.
What I like the most from this episode is the adaptability of the members of Super Junior which make even a simple game hugely interesting. Super Junior and Red Velvet became Guest in episode 376. Not only they did come in complete personnel. It turns out that one of the members of Suju, Eunhyuk is a friend from the same elementary school as Jeon Somin. There are also a lot of funny stories between them. The closeness of Somin and Eunhyuk make Donghae jealous and this kind spark is what keeps this episode interesting.
Running Man once again took the theme of Couple Race but this time with much more guest. There’s even an extra 2 male guest, Jo Se-ho and Sung Hoon. Meaning there are 8 pairs in total. So do not be surprised if this episode took 2 episodes. Even for its opening alone spend half the episode. The guest stars are asked to show his or her talents. Sunmi is definitely featuring with the famous dance of Ganshina. Well, Jo Seho as always gets tricked by Yoo Jaesuk. Not only that Jo Seho who is paired with Song Jihyo always get scolded and even beaten.
This is one of the episode of Global Race where Jeon Somin and Kwangsoo have to undergo their punishment in Indonesia or precisely in Gunung Kidul Jogjakarta. They have to cross toward the fishing island using a cable car made by the coastal residents of Pantai Timang which is made with Wood and several strings connected to each other. This whole episode features Somin and Kwangsoo. The members have to guess what they are doing and the result of the action. Kwangmin couple’s moments will also make us laughed and melted here.
Cara install pcsx2 windows 10. In this episode Running Man welcome the arrival of special guest star Gary! Gary and his clone forces came into this episode to defeat the other members which come as a surprise since the member didn’t expect the appearance of their ex-member. The twist is there and presented professionally with good build up and tension. 7012!
Where Jae Suk became MC while the other Running Man member has a match against another team of entertainers. It’ss guaranteed a lolly moment when you watch this episode. Maybe for some, this episode is a bit bland and much more like the moment of revival for some entertainer, but the game was not blatantly simple, plus there is a twist at the end.
In this episode, the members were asked to collect items to fill a house which later will become their base camp. Starting from the sofa, carpet, mattress, to the toilet. They had to borrow or ask for many items from their fellow celebrities, from Cha Taehyun, Kim Dong Wook, to Park Bo Gum. This episode is really exciting for me because each member get their airtime almost equally and all of the moments created are super funny.
Continuing the theme of Global Race, this time Running Man visit Japan to get serve the sentence in the Ghost House. Unfortunately, Kwangsoo must serve the punishment by himself. While Somin went through it with Yoo Jae Suk and Ji Suk Jin served his “adventure” with Yang Se Chan. Lots of funny and thrilling scenes we go from this episode like VJ of Ji Sukjin who fled in fear and left his camera behind.
Well, Haha’s special episode is the best among the others. Haha has been known as a hesitant type of personality and wishy-washy with the choices available. In this episode, Haha will always be told to choose between two members who are prepared to undergo a punishment. Like Lee Kwangsoo or Ji Sukjin who will be thrown into the air with a giant ball. Or Kim Jongkook (eating high calories food) and Song Jihyo (touch insects). And the twist was Haha didn’t plan this episode but other members did this as the gift for Haha’s second child which had made Haha want to run away due to the shameful feeling.
Episode 372 can be categorized as to be one episode with the best Twist of 2017 or perhaps one of the best Twist in Running Man history. Early on, the member saw a video of Lee Kwangsoo who was talking with two mysterious people. Kwangsoo is upset about who he has takes to undergo the punishment in Australia. Well, you will be really shocked by what happened at the end. Usually, we’ll see Jeon Somin making a loveline with Kwangsoo or any male single guest but in this episode Jeon Somin create a romantic moment with Kim Jongkook. Like when somin act as a girlfriend of Kim Jongkook.
Last part of Global Race Project last of 2017 where Running Man members are divided into 2 groups. Lee Kwangsoo’s team which consist Jeon Somin, Ji Sukjin and Yoo Jaesuk flew to Australia and Kim Jongkook’s team consist of Haha, Song Jihyo, and Yang Sechan visited New Zealand. This is the second part because it has previously aired in Episode 378. If in the previous episode 378 (Team Australia) is stealing the attention, during this episode Team New Zealand became the star. Obviously, because this team offers cuteness and tension. Where Haha and Sechan had vomited before getting on the swing and the best moments when Song Jihyo and Kim Jongkook take on the Nevis Swing with the upside position.
Running Man’s blockbuster scenes frequently have a lot of rushes, chills and enough twist on the story to keep watchers oblivious until the last minute. This scene; highlighting apparitions from Running University, took the great Running Man blockbuster scene to another level with a sudden wind that left the individuals reeling, as well as the gathering of people. You wouldn’t have any desire to miss this scene, including incredible part science and collaborations, and a splendid storyline that will keep you snared until the finish of the race.
Still a continuation of episode 346, this 347 episode has three teams, namely Osaka team, Taipei team, and Jeju-do team. They have to buy souvenirs in those places. The team that has the heaviest souvenirs will win this mission. The scale of the mission is huge and Jang Do Yeon helps create smooth episode especially during the trip to Jeju-do. Overall this episode is a good one as the new member looks fluid enough to gel with the original member of Running Man.
This episode centers around the Running Man individuals gunning to be the beneficiary to Running Airline’s affluent director. As basic as it is an idea, the scene is made more troublesome by the beneficiaries; feisty and brimming with shocks. This present scene’s quality likewise originates from the last mission, an unofficial ID tearing mission in which the individuals need to battle against each other to be the beneficiary. There’s an immense twist towards the end which you presumably won’t see it coming either.
Special Christmas episode on Running Man, for the most part, have an amazing quality of esteem, however, to keep in accordance with the current year’s Running Man subject of wanders aimlessly, the PD have thought of yet another blockbuster scene including apparitions, vindictive spirits, and people. You’d most likely never observe Christmas similarly again. A note, the main portion of the scene tends to delay somewhat more, yet the real race is where the place of fun is.
This is the best and funniest Running Man episode in 2017 but not quite fundamental. Because this episode is special to celebrate 7 years Running Man. All Running Man members come to the show with their friends and family. Like Song Jihyo and Somin who brought their younger brother and Kim Jongkook who came with his older brother. Other members choose to take their friends. But before the guests come out they tell the habits of each member. Like Haha who once vent on and wanted to gang up Kim Jongkook. All agreed that the star in this episode is Haha’s friend Park Geun-shik and Jo Seho. Geunsik with his innocence often makes Haha angry while Jo Se Ho always gets teased by Yoo Jaesuk. But Tae Hang-ho (Friends of Kwangsoo) also take much of the airtime while trying the high voice game.
On episode 346, the new member Jeon So-min and Yang Se-chan start joining permanently as a cast member. Here we will be getting stomachache because of their hilarious behavior, especially from the new member! This time there are three teams that compete to win. They must successfully undergo a mission if not, the will be given a horrible penalty. It might not be the funniest, but this episode becomes the turning point of the new era of Running Man. Thus, we see this episode as the fundamental episode of Running Man in 2017.

Into the Ring thoughts - character by character
Just some things I liked, this is going to be long...
Tumblr media
Goo Se Ra: I didn’t get into this drama thinking I’d fall in  love with her but here we are. Flawless acting from Nana (which I hadn’t  actually seen in anything before, apart from that time I tried watching  Kill It and decided it wasn’t for me). I really admire how Se Ra stands  up for what she believes in and how she’s not afraid to make a wave and  be loud. She’s honestly such a hard-worker and so full of hope when life didn’t necessarily give her reason to be. (Even when it seems that everyone is against her.) At first I thought her thing about complaints was that she was litigious and loved rules. Turns out she believed in  the democratic process and in sticking to her principles. Also maybe she liked having control in one (1) aspect of her life. I loved the  childhood flashbacks and they really added something to the story.  Seeing how Jong Dae’s death impacted her too made me see her in a new  light. She and Gong Myung have complimentary personalities and similar values and they’re such a good match!!! I always enjoy seeing female leads take the initiative and she definitely does that. She’s so confident! Not in an arrogant sort of way, but in a “she looks like she has a healthy self-talk” way. Her looks are almost never mentioned and I actually find that so refreshing. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t  bring A+ fashion to the district assembly. Her calling out “Gong” is my  absolute favourite thing.
Seo Gong Myung: Another surprise crush. I’m very impressed with Park Sung Hoon! He brings so much to this character!! And obviously his chemistry with Nana is amazing (this drama has the best kisses, just saying). Now I’ve definitely said it before but, lonely characters  finding a place where they belong is my favourite kind of narrative. I feel proud of him for opening up to people and standing up to his dad. I love that he’s Se Ra’s number 1 cheerleader and will do anything for her. The new hair style looks amazing and he deserves all of the happiness okay.
Yoon Hee Soo: Loved her dynamic with Se Ra. Her hanging up on  Chief Jo/Cho in the last episode: very satisfying, 10/10. I like that  she handles the news of Se Ra and Gong Myung being a couple with a lot of grace. Her “revenge” is barely one and she doesn’t become extra mean to Se Ra just because she’s dating her crush. It’s the decent thing to do but so many dramas have a bitchy second lead and I’m relieved that this one doesn’t.
Jo/Cho Maeng Deok: All of that bs about “selling everything you have” was the worst and I would be lying if I said he didn’t deserve his ending. Very nuanced performance from Ahn Nae Sang. There’s times when you can  tell he’s capable of emotions, but he’s just trained himself to ignore  and repress them. My guess is that he was like this before his son died,  but it got worse in the aftermath. His way of dealing with the pain was  to stop feeling anything and focus on his career. This moment of vulnerability with Gong Myung at the end felt very real and raw. I hated  seeing him play god and pull the strings all along, that’s why Yoon Hee Soo turning on him was so amazing.
Kim Min Jae: As Se Ra’s boyfriend, I really disliked him. Chief  Jo/Cho was beginning to rub off on him and quitting was probably the best decision he could make. Good on him. I liked his last scene with Gong Myung because it showed his growth.
Se Ra’s parents: This actually applies to almost every character in this drama because it’s just that well written, but I loved the slow reveal of their backstory. The dad made me so emotional when he realized why Se Ra had got into politics and when he apologized to his wife, and then when he went to find Se Ra at the underground/subway with a pair of shoes. Plus, I love the parallel  with Gong Myung’s father later on. Se Ra’s mum is so good to Gong Myung  and she usually has good intentions, even when she does real stupid  stuff. Se Ra is a mix of both of her parents and it shows.
Se Ra’s friends: It’s great that they each have their own distinct personality but the three of them get along so well. Do I like to imagine Han Bi gets a girlfriend? Yes. But I’m happy with the part of her story we’re actually told. Her relationship with Woo Young’s son is one my fave things and I love that he’s a kid who’s sometimes wise beyond his years and at the same time still very much a child. Woo Young getting into politics and scaring the shit out of old men was the best plot twist.
Gong Myung’s friends/colleagues: These two provided excellent comedy!! Lee Dae Chul trying to act like a spy and Jung Yong Gyu being “controlled” by Gong Myung as Se Ra’s secretary were personal favourites. Side note: Go Dong Chan was absolutely hilarious as well.

My favorite ships from kdramas - appreciation post (part 2)
I have no idea if you've been waiting for that but I described the last list as part one, so I guess I should make another one. So today is The day. BTS plays in the background, list is ready, I have exam in two days but who cares, let's go!
1. What’s wrong with secretary Kim? - Kim Mi So & Lee Young-Joon
Tumblr media
Let’s be honest. We have Park Min-Young and Park Seo-Joon. It had to work. They had to had crazy-like chemistry, it was meant to be. Whenever there was a kiss I’ve been worried my computer will set himself on fire bc all this hotness. Iconic comedy, iconic character of Park Seo-Joon, iconic romance. Also can we all agree that Park Min-Young have like the best luck when it comes to screen partners? Shit, girl. You must have saved thousands of people’s lives in your past life.
2. While you were sleeping - Nam Hoong-Joo & Jung Jae-Chan
Tumblr media
Second Male Lead Syndrome hit hard with this one. But still not hard enough to stop me from gushing over the Nam Hoong-Joo and Jung Jae-Chan cuteness. I mean, c’mon. Suzy is motherfucker queen and Lee Jong-Suk is so pretty it makes my eyes hurt. Plus I adore that they were just so idk normal? Not perfect like most of the kdrama’s couples. She has growing hair leg, and he can be gross sometimes. SO WHAT?! Welcome to the real world. They loved each other anyway.  
3. Innocent man/Nice Guy - Seo Eun-Gi & Kang Ma-Roo
Tumblr media
Man, between all this fluffy couples this one is kinda dark. But that's exactly what I loved about them. She was a bitch, especially at the beginning. He was a the dickest dick in the whole Dickland, Mayor of Dickville. Two sinners, bad, broken and selfish. Raw. Different. Flawed. They were hurting, they've been hurt. The ending of the drama was meh for me but this couple stands strong. And you know that Song Joong-Ki is the only one for me. He just makes me so happy whenever he's on the screen.
4. Touch your heart - Oh Jin-Shim & Kwon Jung-Rok
Tumblr media
They proved love exists in Goblin and now they did it again. Firstly: Oh Jin-Shim is one of my favorite female characters ever. She's just so cheerful and inspirational. I watched this drama when my life was kinda shit, but after watching her journey back to the top I felt great, like I could do anything. Secondly: Kwon Jung-Rok is the cutest idiot ever. He's so charming with this awkwardness of his. And together they create this cute, healthy kind of relationship I stan so much. LOVE THEM.
5. Her private life - Sung Deok-Mi & Ryan Gold
Tumblr media
So like I said before I'm pretty sure that Park Min-Young could create great chemistry even with a plain chair. But holy shit, in Her Private life we're getting whole Mendeleev's table. The story is pretty simple, there's no incredible groundbreaking plot, but Kim Jae-Wook is so hot and works so amazing with Park Min-Young that I didn't even care for the plot. I just wanted to look at him as long as I could. Also, Ryan Gold is perfect boyfriend. I want him for next Christmas.
6. Angel's last mission: love - Lee Yeon-Seo & Dan
Tumblr media
Omg, I shed so many tears on this one. Being completely honest I wasn’t huge fan of Lee Yeon-Seo at the beginning, she was really annoying for me. But Dan, my baby L, was such a cutie I decided to watch it despite of female character and boy, I am so happy I did that. It was truly touching, sad but beautiful story. And mains are just two puppies, so in love with each other, that you have this sudden desire to leave kdrama’s world, go outside, meet someone and being as cute as Yeon-Seo and Dan. Fortunately, this desire passes very quickly. I have another episode to watch, you know?
7. Cheer up! Sassy go go - Kang Yeon-Doo & Kim Yeol
Tumblr media
I know most of you have a very strong Second Man Lead Syndrome when it comes to Sassy Go Go. And let me just tell you: I would die for Seo Ha-Joon. Ji Soo is one of my favs and he did such a breathtaking job in this drama. When I started watching it, I've actually been thinking I would be suffering, bc after watching few videos on YouTube I knew that SMLS is strong with this one. I wanted to ship him with Kang Yeon-Doo. And partly I do, I am. BUT DAMN. KIM YEOL. Like I said, I was prepared for loving Seo Ha-Joon. I was rooting for him even before watching. But then that one scene happened and that was it. I was done. You know which one I'm talking about. "One, you move away first. Two, I move away first. Three, since we're in this position anyway, we do it". It made my heart beat faster and since that moment I was sold. 
Btw that plot line with parents was totally unnecessary. Why, writers? Why?
8. Because this is my first life - Joon Ji-Ho & Nam Se-Hee
Tumblr media
This drama is so important for me, you have no idea. I just felt it to the core of my being. And no, I didn't married my hot landlord although i'm not opposed that idea but it's just freaking incredible story about growing up, learning how to do this whole adult-shit, being your own person, being someone's person and finally about finding yourself. GOD, IT WAS SO GOOD. And main couple! UGH. My babies! I know I named Kwon Jung-Rok from Touch Your Heart the cutest idiot ever but in that moment I guess I had to forget about Nam Se-Hee, bc he wins that category. But he was also understanding and respectful and patient and just...kind. Just simply kind but somehow that is everything. Plus I love Kitty. It's the prettiest cat ever.
9. Extraordinary you - Eun Dan-Oh & Haru
Tumblr media
The latest drama I watched and holy guacamole, I loved it so much. And even though I love Baek Kyung with my whole heart I don't even know why because he's an asshole, I just have to admit that Haru and Eun Dan Oh are freaking perfect for each other. THE WAY HE RESPECTED HER. Damn, that's some valuable shit right here. Watch and learn, boys. WATCH. AND. LEARN.
10. Encounter/boyfriend - Cha Soo-Hyun & Kim Jin-Hyuk
Tumblr media
The last but not least. Actually, it’s my fav couple on this list. Noone is able to dethrone Kang Mo-yeon & Yoo Shi-jin from DOTS from being my fav ultimate, but damn I must say Soo-Hyun and Jin-Hyuk were really close to do that. I fell in love with them since the first scene and now, long after watching it, I still think about them everyday. I’m not even joking. Where you can find a man who’ll take cute photos of you and dance salsa with you on Cuba? With whom You could talk about poetry and art? And who will be as cute as Park Bo-Gum? Any ideas? I’m not asking for friend, I’m asking for myself.

Kdramas I’ve watched (part 1)
Hello! This is my first post ever! I wanted to create a list of kdramas that I’ve watched, and what I would rate them. I hope you enjoy this list and maybe find some shows to watch!
The Producers (2015)
13 episodes
Tumblr media
Synopsis: “A tireless group of young TV producers and a pop star work around the clock in the entertainment department of a major network” (Wikipedia). The show revolves around Seung-Chan (Kim Soo Hyun), a young man who begins his career for the KBS televisions network. He struggles to get along with his boss, Joon-mo (cha Tae-Hyun), who also happens to be a long time friend of Seung-Chan’s work crush, the music program producer Ye-Jin (Kang Hyo-Jin). Cindy (IU) a k-pop idol who has become rude, selfish, and narcissistic to protect herself from her adoptive mother/CEO and the constant stream of hate she receives meets Seung-Chan during a music show and begins to fall for him. Will Seung-Chan end up with Ye-Jin or Cindy?
Rating: 7/10
This was the first Kdrama I watched, and it was only because of my love for IU. Watching the show for IU quickly turned into watching the show for the plot and character development in general, especially Cindy’s and Ye-Jin’s. This show had plenty of funny, badass, heartfelt, and frustrating moments that always kept me interested. I especially liked watching the interactions between Cindy and her manager! I wasn’t a huge fan of the sort of love triangle between the three producers, but it wasn’t over-the top or annoying.
Oh My Ghostess (2016)
16 episodes
Tumblr media
Synopsis: “Timid Na Bong Sun gets possessed by the ghost of a confident young woman who seeks to solve her unfinished business by hooking up with Bong Sun's boss, famous chef Kang Sun Woo.” (Wikipedia)
Rating: 10/10
This is definitely a must see if you enjoy kdramas, especially ones that have lots of romance along with supernatural elements (and a bit of mystery)! I loved the character development of Bong Sun, going from an incredibly introverted girl who was terrified of the ghost she could see to being a talkative woman who refused to run away from her problems. The chemistry between the two leads was amazing, Kim Seulgi did a great job of playing a feisty and headstrong ghost, the chefs were hilarious to watch, and the plot of a murderer who had been possessed for years was interesting. I have zero bad things to say about this show, it’s too good.
You’re the Best! Lee Soon Shin (2013)
50 episodes
Tumblr media
Synopsis: “Lee Soon Shin (IU) goes through hardships after the death of her father. Soon Shin and her mother struggle to find happiness. Her love story continues in the mist of ups and downs of her life. Lee Soon Shin is the youngest member of a successful family. Despite her family′s successes, however, she seems to have failed to inherit any talent, and is marked as an oddball though she remains a bright, lively and courageous girl. She then meets the head of an agency named Shin Joon Ho (Jo Jung-Suk), and he turns her life around. Shin Joon Ho is a confident, cold and competitive man who changes later after he begins to understand the real meaning of success through Lee Soon Shin” (my drama list).
Rating: 5/10
This is another show I watched because of IU. It was incredibly hard to pay attention to a show that had 50 1-hour long episodes, so honestly I skipped through most of the parts that didn’t involve Soon-Shin. Yoo In-na plays one of Soon-Shin’s sisters in the show, but I didn���t particularly like her role. This show revolves around Soon-Shin being conned right around the time her father dies, and then actually becoming an actress with the help of CEO Shin Joon-Ho. She gains attention and eventually discovers that she was adopted and that her real mother is a popular actress who works under the same company. This whole show is very dramatic but has good intentions. I’m not a fan of the length of the show and I wasn’t really interested in most of the characters, but there were lots of lighthearted moments and I really liked seeing the relationship develop between Soon-Shin and the CEO.
Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (2016-2017)
16 episodes
Tumblr media
Synopsis: “In ancient times, Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) is an unbeatable general in wars, but the young King (Kim Min-Jae) is jealous of Kim Shin and kills him. Kim Shin becomes Dokkaebi (Goblin), possessing an immortal life. At first he thinks that he is blessed, but he realizes that he is cursed. Closer to the present day, Kim Shin has waited 900 years for a human bride to end his immortal life. One night, he saves a dying pregnant woman (Park Hee-Von) who is destined to die. Meanwhile, the Grim Reaper (Lee Dong-Wook) is unable to find the dead pregnant woman. The woman gives birth to a baby girl named Ji Eun-Tak (later played by Kim Go-Eun). In the present day, Eun-Tak is a high school student. She still sees ghosts and hears their whisper of “Dokkaebi’s bride.” On her birthday, Eun-Tak sits by the sea with a lighted birthday cake. At that time, Kim Shin suddenly appears in front of her. Kim Shin does not know why, but he can hear her voice and appears in front of her against his will. Coincidentally, Kim Shin lives with the Grim Reaper at the same house. Eun-Tak and Kim Shin slowly get to know each other, and Eun-Tak soon figures out that he is the Goblin and she is his bride”(Asianwiki).
Rating: 10/10
This is another show that you NEED to watch if you’re getting into Kdramas. The concept of the show was very unique, and the entire cast consists of talented actors who pulled off their characters incredibly well. The romance between the two leads is great, the romance between the second leads is great, literally everything about this show is wonderful- there’s even some straight up bromance between the Grim reaper and the Goblin. I loved how they tied everything back to past lives and the consequences of each person’s actions. The ending is incredibly sad and I most definitely cried several times throughout the show.
Abyss (2019)
16 episodes
Tumblr media
“Go Se-yeon is a beautiful prosecution lawyer at the top of her game, and Cha Min is her friend, an unattractive but rich heir to a cosmetics empire. They are both revived into different bodies by supernatural beings using an "Abyss" after their deaths in separate incidents. The "Abyss" is a celestial object which has the power to revive anything that has died; the reincarnated bodies take on the appearance of that person's soul. Go Se-yeon takes on a plainer appearance, whilst Cha Min becomes very attractive and young; virtually the opposite of before. They start working together to find out the reason for their revival and who caused Go Se-yeon's death” (Wikipedia).
Rating: 6/10
This show took me a really long time to finish watching. Like several months long. The plot seemed to fast paced at times and too slow at others, and it was overall fairly predictable. The concept was great but the portrayal was meh. Both leads were wonderful and did a great job of playing their characters, but the show was lacking in characters development and the development of romance between them. Honestly I don’t even remember how the show ended. I also didn’t really like Cha Mum’s girlfriend that much, her story didn’t intrigue me and she never really seemed to have any development, but maybe that’s just me.
I hope you enjoyed this! I really love kdramas but I didn’t really have anyone to talk to about them, so this is the next best thing. Most of these shows are frequently recommended, but I thought I’d just put out my own thoughts for the world to see. Peace out homies!

10 greatest moments of Episode 364 (spoilers alert!)
SO... EPISODE 364 was just AWESOME! And because it’s so hard to choose what to post about (I have so much to say), I decided I’ll just do a long written post instead! You have been warned about spoilers ahead!
1. When there are suspicions in the air even before anything starts
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We always suspect Kwang Soo... Because it’s always Kwang Soo even before anyone knows anything
2. When new side games were played 
Because let’s admit it, the Ji Suk Jin Yoo Jae Suk game was getting old
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The forming-sentences-with-non-related-words game made probably more sense for those who understood Korean (still funny for international fans like me!) and...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
... I guess our minds just went in the wrong direction for the guess-the-movie-by-listening game! #R #STOPITGUYS
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. When the episode was told from Ji Hyo’s perspective
Being a Ji-Hyo fan, I was hoping a little that she would get a chance to be the ghost (which I thought would then mean she had a bigger role)...
Tumblr media
So, I was a little disappointed when they revealed (really early in the episode) that she was a human, although I was still happy they edited the episode based on her perspective.
Tumblr media
BUT LITTLE DID I KNOW...
4. When a phone call made our brains explode internally
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I. JUST. FREAKED. OUT! (Hairs still standing while doing this post)
5. The revelation of how this episode was for all the ghosts
Tumblr media
When the trio were in the lift and it stopped at the 4th floor, no one attempted to tear anyone’s name tag (which if anyone were human they would) since all of them were ghosts! Just imagine how they felt! “DID I FINALLY FIND MY GHOST PARTNER?”  
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And the lift incident just made everyone so confused because everyone thought there were only 2 ghosts. “WHAT AM I EVEN?”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But the ghosts eventually figured it out! I was so impressed our newbies So Min and Se Chan even came to this conclusion
6. The realisation that everything PD-nim said actually made perfect sense
Tumblr media
We kind of assumed that there were 2 ghosts when he just said there were 2 people of different identities (aka 2 humans)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Since there are only 2 humans, the other would lose then as he/she would not have anyone to escape with!
7. Jae Suk’s mind games
We all know Jae Suk’s brain is just wired slightly different from everyone else. Like how he pointed the clue of the ghost identity to himself...
Tumblr media
And how he pulled off that last intense mind game with Ji Hyo
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Since he knew Ji Hyo would not take Ha Ha with her if he stood on Ha Ha’s side, she would then leave with Kwang Soo... BRILLIANCE!
8. The revelation of how this episode could have been for Ha Ha, the unknown human
Ok this came a little delayed for me, but I came to realise Ha Ha may not have known Ji Hyo was a human until the very last moment (unlike us as audience who knew it from the start)
Firstly he kind of suspected her from the beginning, when Ji Hyo gave a high five to her VJ (which for anyone else may mean that they got the main role)
Tumblr media
Later, he obtained this confusing clue...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
By this point, Ha Ha knows that out of the trio that entered the lift, there are 2 ghosts (since he witnessed the lift mayhem). So he was possibly really confused by now. He probably thinks there are definitely more than 2 ghosts but exactly how many humans are there?
Tumblr media
Then he meets Kwang Soo who made a weird claim of ripping Jong Kook’s name tag...
Tumblr media
Because Ha Ha was actually the one who ripped it!
Along with it came the lie...
Tumblr media
I’m not sure how things would have went if Ha Ha didn't lie because he then finds out from Ji Hyo that there are only 2 humans (which means it’s either her or Kwang Soo that he needs to escape with since they entered the lift together and the lift did not stop on the 4th floor). By this time though...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can tell Ha Ha was trying to find the real human to escape with (and had his bet placed on Ji Hyo), but it was all too late 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Not that it was anyone’s fault though... which is the beauty of this episode!
9. When the mains didn’t even know they were mains and the sides thought they were mains  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10. Inner Ha Hyo desires fulfilled
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ok they didn't get to work together much, but I was quite happy that the secret couple turned out to be them! 
WHAT A GREAT EPISODE! (Thanks for reading this really long post too!)

1, 2, 5 for the soft asks!! 💚
thanks for the ask, liss!! // from these asks
1. your favourite playlist (made by yourself or someone else)
oh god okay, but i think right now, at least, my favorite playlist is i’m the main character (of a kdrama) today. idk. i really love kdramas for lots of reasons, but right now something i’m really appreciating about kdramas is that so many of them have this theme of having a dream is the most important thing and like…lol, i’m at that stage in my life where i’m really holding onto that. so like. this whole playlist is composed of songs from kdramas that give me a lot of hope for the future in terms of what i choose to do with my life, the people i’ll eventually come to love, etc.
2. how many houseplants in your room, and what kinds are they?
lol, i don't have any plants in my room anymore, but i used to have a rose sitting at my desk! it wilted, unfortunately. back when i was living on campus though, i used to have a thing of scallions sitting in a water jar on my windowsill!
5. 5 tv shows that cheer you up
ohohohoho...right now, that's probably
1. the clone wars, for obvious reasons. why yes, the clone wars is depressing af, but it still feels like home.
2. school 2013, which i've honestly screamed about quite a bit here already, but...it's just such a comfort show. i think everyone deserves teachers like jung in jae, and i think everyone deserves to heal from old friendships like go nam soon and park heung soo, and i think everyone deserves to grow like oh jung ho and kang se chan and lee yi kyung and lee ji hoon.
3. hello my twenties!, which is just so happy. i've watched it three or four times now, and it never fails to make me smile. sometimes you just want to watch a show about college gals learning about love and dreams and friendship.
4. jugglers, yeah, yeah, yeah, another kdrama but it just makes me happy because it's a cute office romance and the main couple. makes me. want to scream. i mean. come on. i just see a tall unassuming guy fall hopelessly in love with the bright-eyed short gal and it's game over.
5. avatar: the last airbender, because this is just another childhood favorite. who doesn't love aang and crew? to this day, i'm pretty sure this is like...god-tier of all animated shows. solid messages, asian protagonists, really nuanced storytelling, the redemption arc to end all redemption arcs...honestly, so god-tier.
