Hello everybody,

I am in a process of moving, so I will not have internet for a while. But I did finish the show while I still had internet. This is a great show! I will continue to read your comments.

Hello Everyone

I still have not finished this drama so I will make the best of WATCHING it for the first time as a rewatch.

Hi @MM. I am still where I was last week. Ahead of this current episode, but not finished. Watching autumn turn. Geese calling overhead on their morning rounds.

Hi SD, MM, GB and SF

Hi @GB!

Hi @WE! Great music at the beginning. Must be somewhere on the list you sent us @WE, but I would not be able to guess where. And some of that misdirection you spoke of, @GB, we think that HJ is caught by a trigger happy crook not his pal.

@SD, yes! Classic misdirection. Similarly, our GH is pretending to be Bae JT’s girlfriend LOL. GH and HJ make a great pair of partners.

@WE we don’t get the 3rd cliff hanger solved until the end of this episode.

Seems Bae had been tailing and taking photos taken of the resetters. I heard them say why he was doing it, but now I’m not sure.

@GB I appreciate that but I do not want to take away from others expressing their thoughts. I know that I like to rewatch to see how scenes connect to future scenes.

Lee Shin just leaves temporary the series. Lol, what happened? Actress got a cold? ^^

@WE, Lee Shin did show up here and there and gets back towards the end of this episode.

Hi @FF! @WE, GH seems to feel a little guilty about not actually working at her usual tasks and passing off ‘old’ work as new work to her new assistant. Not enough to change the series though.

@WE, this episode we get a greater sense that something is not right about Lee Shin too.

@SD, that’s an interesting thought. It didn’t occur to me about GH. Not sure I felt that.

Now we have HJ after Bae over his connection with Kim Dae Sung and scrapping cars for him.

The stone threw the window was a great distraction and misdirection.

@GB, I was away last weekend so I watched 2 episodes earlier today and read some of last week’s comments.

@WE, the stocks guy, Cha managed to reset and pay back something of what he owed, but he still had stolen from the company and Bae was blackmailing him over it.

@FF, you worked hard! But it’s fun work. 🙂

@WE, this part with the music and how it was really to get her to hear calls from Bae’s phone was not too clear. It cut suddenly to the time before when he gave her the stones to throw. Confusing.

@SD, yes, Lee Shin gets away with a lot because she’s the ‘doctor’ and we expect doctors to be professional, responsible and caring to an extent.

I am at the flowere bouquet now too

@SD, for sure, we start to mistrust her as well. 🙂
But wait… I also have the feeling to mistrust her from the start, lol!

@MM, who would have thought flowers could scare us.

@WE, @SD, I felt doubtful over Lee Shin from the start because she was the one choosing and calling people to reset with her. She must have her own agenda. It was pretty shocking what it was… almost chilling but more a nasty surprise.

HJ rushes over to Bae’s place… supposed to take 15 minutes but a lot has happened in those 15 minutes.

I was actually sad to find out more about Cha. Scales fall from our eyes.

@WE, Between Cha and Bae, it’s hard to say who’s the victim and who’s the perpetrator.

@MM, in thrillers and crime shows we’ve been conditioned now to expect that when good stuff happens, it heralds the advent of bad stuff. LOL.

@FF, I was guessing that Bae was talking to Lee Shin. But Cha came first to his place, and brought thugs.

GH is proactive… she bravely goes around to look for the guys… she stares at Cha’s door but Show does not let us see what she sees…. however she guesses that Cha is in danger… put 2-and-2 together.

Both men driving in opposite directions, both wearing beanie. I can imagine Bae wearing a beanie but it’s so unlike Cha’s style. Cha was later found dead in the car by suicide, when he wanted to fly over to Canada to live with his wife and daughter.

@GB Well done though. The cheer about his love for his daughter was foreshadowing that he was not such a family man.

@GB, yes. We saw that with the park situation. Situation, then many flashbacks with more revelation into each.
The drama also use another good trick. I’ll speak about that with a scene as example (didn’t happen yet).

Now CHA is dead, so it should be solving of cliffhanger #3.

@MM, maybe he was sincere about his daughter, and not much else.

Now the flowers emerge again.

I need to make a list of techniques:
– Hidden in a scene and more revelations with more flashback.
– Cut before a revelation.
– Shot on people to make them suspicious.
– Generate surprise in a scene (we’ll see that soon). What is the scene could be straight on, but few surprises are added to catch attention. I make analys of that in a episode of Marry My Husband.
– Probably more tricks but not in my mind now.

Oh flowers again, received flowers and death will follow. This writer sure kills the romantic feelings associated with flowers.

Mysterious scene of a museum with item of the dead ones.
Follow Lee Shin… so it’s not her in the museum.

@FF LOL… now a beautiful flower basket will instill fear!

@WE, which episode of Marry My Husband did you comment on? I would be interested in reading what you wrote about attention getting surprises.

Every drama should have an adorable puppy dog or cat. 🥺🥰

@GB, not sure it’s ep10 or 12. I’ve made the complete scene transcription about timecode, each transition.

Here the scene I was talking about to add small surprises. But I’m a bit tired to make the full description. So I’ll post that later. It’s very used in this drama, and in many other dramas, but not easy to do, because once the writer knows the scene goal, it’s more easy to go to the end without.

Flowers again! Huh the detective read the card that comes with it! But he cannot be the next death haha coz he is the ML.

@GB I would not even be on that empty road by myself much less in this context

@ GB now I am remembering this scene on the dark road from the first time I watched so I know I made it this far in the drama. I must have been scared the first time too.

By everyone! See you next week.

@GB, normal, it’s about Marry My Husband Ep10, not 365. 😉

Got it @WE!

@MM yes the flowers are a mystery. They are ironically used as a chilling warning when they should be a warm gesture of friendship. And we don’t know who is sending them or why this person wants to scare them.

@WE, I went back and rewatched the episode of Marry My Husband a couple of minutes early and then followed it through. I then looked through some of your comments (and complete synopsis of that episode!). I understand what you mean. The little cigarette holder (!), No! a medicine or mint holder! does add a little frisson of suspense in the Marry My Husband episode. In 365 the near attack of Kim Se Rin by Bae Jung Tae has that same effect of heightening the suspense (only more so). It makes the scream as she opens the door hit much harder (as in what could be worse than having your life threatened by a much larger and very mean looking crook!).

@SD, I wondered too why there were empty frames above each of the trophies in the ‘museum’ of the killer. Why did the camera linger on those empty frames? One possibility… the deaths had no meaning. The victims were nonentities to the killer. They were nonetities both alive and dead. Only the trophies mattered to the killer as a sign of his success at getting away with murder.

@SD, Hi.
I don’t know much about poetry, but in any case, the process has more to do with psychology than with writing. There’s a simple way of knowing when to keep rewriting. I have a pragmatic approach that I’ll set out here:

First, when I want to write a story, it’s because I’m passionate about the ideas I’ve come up with. I need to preserve that energy. To do that, you just have to be happy with what you’re doing at every stage, and understand the natural process of writing. I always feel like “Woo! what I’ve just written is great”. This satisfaction is not only normal, but also beneficial. It’s not misguided pride. Never lose that subjective feeling. It’s enjoying creativity like children do.

Objectively, there are certainly flaws in the ideas or the writing. This is also perfectly normal and part of the writing process.
Some flaws are easy to find when you proofread the text, and can therefore be fixed quickly after. Then comes the feeling of satisfaction. “It’s even better than before”. Once this is done, the text is in its new optimal state. It’s best to put it aside for a week, maybe a month or more. Continue to do other things, perhaps write something new.

Then it’s time to reread the text. And that’s when it’s obvious what can be improved! I mean, knowing what to rewrite is pretty easy, because it’s obvious. If it’s not obvious, it becomes a kind of word torture. Once improved comes the feeling of satisfaction. “I never thought I’d get it so perfect”. This is the new optimal state of the text.

Perhaps there are still questions or doubts. That’s normal. They remain in the mind, day and night. The mind works even when we don’t know. Sometimes you think about the text while doing something else. Takes the opportunity and time to think. It’s an in-depth work on ideas. And then it becomes obvious: this or that can be done. Yes, the idea is excellent and flashed naturally in the mind. No suffering, just playing.
The process continues, with another edit of the text, the feeling of satisfaction, the new optimal state. There’s no doubt or negative feeling with this approach, because it’s the normal process of writing.

I have a small example to tell you about.
It’s a text that I’ve worked on over and over again. But it was written years before. By chance, I reread part of my episode 3 and I came across this:
“On Publisher Park’s screen, website statistics, growing to a current peak.
Publisher Park is fascinated, motionless. The image of statistics reflects on his glasses.”

It seemed perfect before, but since then I’ve made progress with screenwriting.
And what was invisible jumps out at me.
How do I take this, in terms of my personal emotion?
In a cold, detached, even amused way. Zero negativity. Just:
“Oh, I could correct that to get a better visual order”.

I re-imagine the scene, as if I were watching it on television: I first show statistics on a computer screen. And the transition would be better if I showed the reflection in the glasses first. Then the idea that the shot becomes wider and we see the Publisher. I’ve also left out the character’s intention, and to add clarity, the fact that he’s looking at the statistics.

The correction is obvious, and when I have time I’ll edit the text with :
“On Publisher Park’s screen, website statistics, growing to a current peak.
Statistics reflects on his glasses. He watches them, fascinated, motionless. ”

And that will become the new optimal state of the text, maybe the last, maybe not. I’m just even more satisfied than before. It’s happiness all the way, at each stage of the writing process. Happy like a child.

Hello All,

I may not be able to join you this Saturday as I am visiting my son and his wife on Vancouver Island.

Children are a constant source of amusement, even as adults.Their kitchen has no organizational structure, even though I tried to help them with that the last time we visited. It was a challenge to make my oatmeal this morning. On the other hand the coffee was hot and last night’s dinner pretty good.

@MM, okay. We’ll see you if you can get away for a few minutes, otherwise we’ll see you the following Saturday!

Does your Daylight Savings time start at the same time as US’s time? I’m keeping my time to be the same which means those who have Daylight Savings will need to which is it… start one hour earlier or later?

@SD, that will be lovely to read your poem(s).

If you have your poem in any written format, you can usually mark by dragging your cursor across while holding down the left button. Press Ctrl-C to copy the marked section.

If the format is in text/MS Word, you can just paste what you’ve copied into BID … ie click the BOD Comment box and press Ctrl-V to paste.

If the format is from an online page or some format with more than just text, use Notepad or Wordpad to paste what you’ve copied… ie click in the Notepad/Wordpad page and press Ctrl-V to paste. This automatically removes unwanted ‘stuff’ that is not text.

Most times I can copy and paste without first pasting into Notepad, because I just type in Word and copy from there. It’s only necessary if you’ve saved your poems online in some other format that includes hidden code.

Please experiment and tell us how it goes. 🙂

*ever utter

@MM thanks for the info. I’ve found that it’s better to not confuse myself with changing my watch time (I did try before) and just let all who have Daylight Savings figure it out.

So you’ll have to be free from 9am then to join us when you start your DS.
