#did minchae find the missing diary?

EP- 15 review

*slowly drags myself out of the gutter to pen a review*

Sorry bout that. I’m just sad that this is all gonna end tomorrow. So, uh, i’m not sure how much comedic relief i can give here, but i certainly will try.

We start off with knowing a crucial bit of info; Yurim was the one who told Yijin to portray her in a harsh light. I had an inkling, cause they never really elaborated on that scene in EP-14 and Yijin is the type of person who would cry after stepping on an ant by accident. Heedo, being the superwoman she is, comforts him and helps him get rid of the graffiti on the wall.

And then like till the last 10 minutes, it’s just Baek Yijin being a proud malewife. He makes fun of the reporter for not having a dating life. Switches departments cause he knows he can’t be impartial in sports. Takes heedo on a cliffside date on new years. gets drunk with her and cuddles (maybe the conception of minchae? jkjk i’m a clown). Both of them even lose sleep just to spend time together....sigh. This just makes me feel lonely lmao-

I like the fact that jaekyung likes yijin. Both of them congratulating each other and being proud of their respective daughter/gff was wholesome. But the dinner scene did make me nervous.

Now we focus of Yurim and Heedo. We see them settling down into their separate lives easily, until it’s not. Yurim feels the need to guard herself. Heedo feels the need to grasp onto the bits of Yurim that are growing distant by the day. This situation is further exacerbated by the PRESS (the analyser spits, looking disgusted). We love to pit talented women against women, don’t we. Yurim’s words are taken out of context, whether the translator intentionally twisted them or not idk. Heedo’s backing is mainly of salty fans who feel personally wronged by Yurim and pin all their hope on her. This is sadly the case in today’s world, where we see people who are famous as idols, rather than humans who have  the tendency to fuck up every once in a while.

Heedo refuses to see Yurim before the Madrid match. I firmly believe that it’s because  (in the wise words of a drunk Yijin) she doesn’t want to waver. Seeing her before the match would probably make her feel like she’s battling a friend, and not a competitor.

I was on the edge of my seat the entire time they fenced. Coach Yang was me and i was her. I jumped at each attack, even though i knew the outcome. My allergies acted up when everyone was hugging and crying. (Also Seungwan’s mum calling Heedo her loach baby was vv cute. Jiwoong being a supportive bf and literally  flying to Russia? My man u literally have no life plans except to be yurim’s trophyhusband and it shows lmao)

Heedo seems to be one of the lucky souls that's bagged herself two soulmates. Both can be platonic and romantic. i’m able to imagine a future with Yurim and Heedo as gfs and Yijin their poster boy and vice versa.

I’m sorry, and no hate to the actress, but Adult!Heedo never fails to make my bp shoot up. whY DO YOU FEEL THE NEED TO SAY MYSTERIOUSLY SAD THINGS? LIKE HOW LIFE AND TIME IS FLUID AND IMPERMANENT? I DON”T NEED TO HEAR THAT I’M TRYING TO FIND AN ESCAPE FROM MY WORLD GODDAMNIT-

Anyways, i don’t believe it’s a coincidence that the last diary is missing.

Now we get to the tragic part of the ep. 9/11.

Considered one of the worst disasters the world has ever witnessed, leading to the death and injury of millions, Yijin is immediately called into New York the day before their vacation. (I saw some ppl being hopeful about them laughing with suitcases....absolute clowns y’all are lmao...it’s me. i’m the clown.)

The constant death and grief can really grate on a person. before long Yijin has grown sallow. His skin is yellow, drawn and he rarely smiles unless he’s talking to Heedo. Dark circles are evident and he restarts smoking and taking pills to sleep. Heedo watches each of his broadcasts religiously, but she knows she’s growing distant from him. She’s far away from the grief he’s constantly seeing.

The preview- you know what? i’m not even gonna talk about it. nope. never occurred.

This episode, although honeymooney till the last few secs, had a consistently heavy undertone. So now i’m sad.
