@Tris: Ah lucky you! I started the drama without watching the trailer. 😆 I don't like judging dramas based on trailers though. Sometimes trailers don't do them justice. 😆

/QUOTE] Oh I totally get it! I actually don't like watching tv show trailers myself because of spoilers lol
I think Memories of the Alhambra and Encounter were starting around the same time and I really wanted to watch one. Encounter's ML looked really interesting in the trailer but Alhambra was way better... and easily accessible!
Anyway, maybe Encounter will get better. Some shows can be very boring at starting but gets better later on. Of course I can't give you any example because I have no patience for such shows but I think I have heard of their existence... ; ) 😆
Good luck girlie 😆

No way Poo! That's exactly what makes this ML grey in my opinion. 10 billion for that game is such a small amount! It's worth hundreds of trillion won! He got away with buying the "game" fir that amount. That cunning-ness makes him grey for me.
Remember when they were in the car, ML was like I should've written those emails. Would've never been caught. FL was like areyou serious? Is this the time to be saying that to her?
There are so many time when he acts like a businessman and you kinda expect them to be shrewd with their goals.
But we see lot of his other positive sides too. And they can be stronger, which upsets the balance lol
Really, he can go both ways. I love that about him!

When you put it that way..I agree!!! He is..But not anti hero..But with less grey shades..As he does want to help her now by finding Se Ju..He might have his own reasons too to solve he problem in the game!!! So he comes in the category of normal hero in a kdrama!!! Unlike Go Hye Ran!!! She stands out when it comes to grey shade!!! In Misty even her hubby was selfish and anti..He could have just confessed in the first palce as Myung Woo said..But he wanted her to depend on him..

Absolutely loved Reply 1988!!! For me the the drama was more about neighbor and friendship bonding than love triangle!!! And I liked Duk Seon when she was with Jungpal and Taek..Both..😆😆😆 Didn't ship anyone in particular given I know the ending..Also it was clearly hinted initially itself Taek is the hubby like him smoking(older Taek), their parents wanting him to be Duk Seon's hubby, etc..
Jungpal and Duk Seon has better chemistry scene-wise..As they had such romantic scenes..With Taek, she was always taking care of him..Which can be interpreted as friendship or love!!! Even in epi 19 & 20 when Taek and she kissed it was okayish!!! May be they should have explained more..Her falling for him was all of a sudden..When she crushed on Sun Woo so hard then liked Jung Hwan!!! Neverthless like their friends I had a soft corner for Taek..May be its coz of Bogummy!!! His smile is mesmerizing!!! ❤️

The confession scene of Jungpal was heartbreaking..💔 So does when Taek canceled his date and decided not to pursue her..I felt the guys loved more than the girl!!!

And what with not showing Duk Seon - Taek marriage??? 😕 Given the drama buzz was to guess who is the hubby.. I had no problem with them showing Sun Woo and Bo Ra's marriage..But they should have shown leads marriage too!!!

Also what happened to Jung Hwan and Dong Ryong in the future? I wanted them at least to show a scene of Jung Hwan finding his love and having a family!!!

I would recommend it to watch it for the precious bonding they showed..No plotting, no jealousy..etc..

And when the next Reply Series comes I want heroine not to have crush or fall/marry any of her friends if they are a gang of 4 boys & 1 girl like in Reply 1988!!! Its a mess!!! 😆

Reply 1988 was never supposed to be about just one couple anyway, the families and the gang made it one of the best shows ❤️⭐️
Duk Seon falling for Taek wasn't really all of a sudden, when Taek showed for the play changed everything, that kiss when they were in high school was just something which made Duk Seon see him in different light. As for Jung Hwan, he was a coward ( for the lack of a better word), his last confession was heart breaking but if he didn't wait for Duk Seon to guess what he wanted in his heart he could have gotten in a relationship with her before Taek even confessed liking her.

Dong Ryong once asked her if she had to like someone just because he liked her? I think it pretty well summed up her inclination towards Sun Woo earlier and Jung Hwan later.

Duk Seon and Taek were really cute in the last few episodes 😳 but I shipped Jung Hwan and Duk Seon too in the first few episodes, but It changed quite soon when the boys started sacrificing for their friendship, generally the boys fight ,yahan to ulta hi ho gaya😆😆

@bold me too , they showed Sun Woo and Bo Ra's wedding which I didn't care much about to start with.

Yes..It was more about family..But as you can see..In every SNS sites its Team Jungpal vs Team Taek..That's what the buzz is all about..That drives the trp and SNS reach..
Yes..That's what..She started feelings all of a sudden when Taek cancelled his date and stayed back in China where he asked her to go for a movie and decided to confess..Before that she liked Jung Hwan..And then the kiss happened..She fell in love in 1989 itself..So when Jungpal confessed..I felt she didn't feel anything!!! Tho in real she cried a lot while shooting that scene..When I read that..I thought in the drama she at least would have had a tear..But nope..

Completely agree on Jung Hwan being a coward..He himself accepted..And not blamed fate and timing..

On bold..I felt too that changed..But still..There was no proper explanation of her liking Taek!!! I wished it was clear..Both confessing and Duk Seon choosing Taek would have been proper!!! I did find Taek cute but as a couple Hyeri had better chemistry with Joon Yeol..Mainly as she has such romantic scenes with him!!!

@Bold It was never clear that she fell in love in 1989 but after that she saw Taek in somewhat different light, her lying about the kiss was so different from how she would have behaved if she had kissed Jung Pal, probably because Taek was group's adopted baby. 😆

About the romantic scenes between Jung Pal and Duk Seon, oh well! I sailed that ship too😆. Someone told me that Bo Gummy didn't end up with the FL so when I saw them, I was like woot woot, found the couple😆😆 but I gave up the ship pretty soon because Jung Haan never confessed amd Taek was more persistent and then came the kiss in Episode19, I liked that one, though hyeri looked a little awkward in the scene, I still like bo Gummy, I love that guy😳😆.

Proper explanation would have been wonderful but then let's just be satisfied with it and dream up our own because Reply 1988 sure hit me hard, there's something about a good show ending...it makes you happy, sad and leaves you with a withdrawal 😆
