    Thanks so much @pkml3! BTW, will you be opening an Ep 4 thread for “A Hundred Memories?”

    Catch you later!

  2. Oh yeah. Wait a second. Are you done watching Ep 4?

  3. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Hi All! 4 minutes to go!

  4. I’m here. Starting now

  5. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Hi @IB… Yes, let’s start NOW!!!

  6. Hi GB and IF.
    I will a bit late, I need to do a little thing just now and I’m back.

  7. Hi All, started.

  8. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    I get a cold open to shooter old man able to recognise JC. Iwonder how he came to be at that place at that time…. and even later along the way able to recognise Woo Tak and his friend and almost run them down. One of those plot holes that we don’t get an explanation for.

  9. Back.
    Hi FF.

  10. One of my favourite perceptual tricks, more time elapses than you think so that the forces of law and order have the time to find the oldster and WT who looks like he is about to get mashed is saved….
    simple and so useful. To heck with realism.

  11. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    See you soon @WE!

    Old man shooter is unconscious while JC is bleeding badly.

    I think he made the decision to live just because he needed to apologise to HJ for hitting her LOL.

  12. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Hi @FF!

    So much blood on HJ’s hands. I’d wash my hands first LOL.

  13. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, that’s fast. You’re earlier after running around than last week.

  14. As expected the “harsh old man” is the shooter.
    This actor is amazing at playing authoritarian and rued old men. He’s El Temur in Empress Ki, one of the most believable villains.
    Also father of ML in 9. But yet, very harsh father. 🙂

  15. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @IB it’s one of those things I accept and bestin the interest of time, however, how did OLd Man Shooter know where to be and when? That gets to me sometimes.

  16. THe old man is on rampage and tried also to kill cop guy + IT friend. Crazy old dude. You are too old for this shit! ^^

  17. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, this actor cannot play soft roles. His features do not allow it!!

  18. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    So the title of this episode is “A boy meets a girl”. That’s because JC never knew that he’d met a girl before when he met ‘Chestnut’.

  19. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Poor HJ thinks she changed the future but made it worse.

    At the height of her tears, good news comes.

  20. He has a voice-over and flashbacks while he’s comatose and dying. Allowed only in kdramas. 😀

  21. I can’t help it but find HJ’s crying is so unconvincing.

  22. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Then it’s HJ’s turn to collapse LOL.

    We come to the secretaries togther scene. All JC’s piled up work is to be distributed. LOL Hyang Mi cries now like she loves JC but it’s shallow andshe will hate him again later. I like that other secretary who said that.

  23. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    LOL @WE, are cdramas and other dramas not able to have dying comatose characters with voiceovers and flashbacks??? LOL.

  24. Haha JC mistook his boss for HJ.

  25. @GB. The harsh old man is dry. He orders something in a rude way, and you don’t discuss, it’s like that and not otherwise. He’s so scary you can’t even discuss and piss your pant, like the villain in 9, submissive to authority (and pesting in hatefull way in his mind). 😀 😀 😀

    Suzy does some crying scenes.
    I’m not in it, alas.
    We get an exepected resolution…
    Ouuhh, just 2 months in hospital and everything’s all right. Yet I don’t see what could be done in another way. I’m still a bit disappointed. I don’t think any dream helped to makes his situation better.

  26. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF, you’re further ahead than me!!

    It’s confusing at first whether he was talking to HJ or not. LOL his boss allowed him to touch his face.

  27. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, two months is too unrealistic for such a close shotgun shooting wound.

    We get introduced to a boy who knows too much about the law.

  28. @GB, I started early coz I expect myself to slow down when I start commenting.

  29. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF, that’s a good idea. I sometimes do that too.

    We get Seung Won and his school mates and this is a preliminary to a later case his brother will have to take on.

  30. The childhood flashback at hospital ends in a GAG! 🙂
    Good comedy idea here. 😀

  31. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    So Lee YB says something suspicious since he speaks of data that can be fabricated. It’s likely that he did that as prosecutor.

  32. The prosecutors are finally getting it; they realize that the snake YB is possibly the mastermind behind the shooting. Planting ideas into the old man’s head and indirectly pushing him to kill JC.

  33. @GB, yes the brother has a friend here. The boy with bruise on his face. I can’t remember well, was he assaulted by other high-scholers in a previous episode?

  34. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF Snake wants to take away Mr Choi to work for him but Choi worries that he might have fabricated info for Snake without knowing it before.

  35. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, yes the friend of Seung Won was provoked by other students and attacked them to defend his father who is in prison.

    Oh we have a make-up application interlude. But it’s not to sell the cosmetics?

  36. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    So HJ hears JC’s reasons for wanting to talk to Shooter Yoo. To tell him that just because he was angry or had hatred and didn’t know the truth, it didn’t make the shooting right.

  37. Cosmetics won’t sell by themselves. PP needed ^^

  38. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE So we have the metaphor of the escalator and riding it up and down when HJ is in 2 minds about whether to tell the truth or pretend a lie.

  39. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, I’ve come to the gag at last. Mr Choi has to save JC from HJ’s wrath. LOL.

  40. @GB, it’s the same as the rotating door in IHYV ?!

  41. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, Yes similar to the revolving door but HJ is not as indecisive hence we only see her doing this once.

  42. Ahahaha. It’s the wrong girl.
    Worst, it’s the one of his cabinet having a crush.

  43. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    HJ starts to lie but can she carry it off for long?

  44. Shin: Because you released Do Hak Kyung.
    JC: I told you he is not the culprit.
    Shin: But Yn Man Ho didn’t know that and got angry,
    JC: Is that supposed to justify this? You can do this if you didn’t know that? You can kill someone just because you are angry? I need to see Yu Man Ho, I’ll go tell him that his anger can’t be an excuse before he dies.

    HJ Flashback
    HJ: Why would I save someone I resent?
    JC: You want to let him die just because you resent him? You call that a reason?
    HJ: Yes, I resent him so just let him die.

    I think I have mentioned before JC is always consistent and steadfast in his views and values.

  45. @GB, I can’t imagine a five minutes scene with him doing back and forth in this escalator to complete 10 ones, except in Hospital Playlist. 😀

  46. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    JC can’t figure it out … he remembers everything so clearly but HJ says she forgot. It’s not one of those things that can be easily forgotten.

  47. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF, yes I remember you said that before about JC. I like that he’s consistent.

    Now he gets tested by the little boy patient, Prosecutor Son’s son LOL. The police also start to doubt that he’s really a Prosecutor.

  48. JC hugs the wrong person, oops.

  49. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    LOL @WE, not even on Hospital Playlist!!

    So more revelations about Prosecutor Son and her son. Only Pros Lee finds out.

  50. Ok, we have a painful situation here.
    The kind which make a longer slow burn duration:
    First HJ goes to JC and he doesn’t want.
    And now JC goes to HJ but she doesn’t want.
    What changed her mind?

  51. @GB. Ooops, yes, you are right. It’s too much sens and tension for HP. Needs something more floppy. ^^

  52. A Boy and a Girl. important scene.

    I didnt get the scar and a wound contrast. Healed and not healed?

  53. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, there’s something that HJ does not want to admit or face. Such a turn around.

    At the same time we see that Pros Son speaks of changing her attitude about what she’s concerned about when it rains. Will someone meet an accident and give a kidney to her son instead of oops! did I keep the clothes and close the windows so that the rain won’t come in?

  54. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, now there’s proof that HJ is lying so she cannot continue in the lie after all.

  55. @GB, damn this proof is kinda on the nose.
    How she could loose that?!
    It takes that as a kdrama reality alteration. 😀

  56. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    The change in perspective that Pros Son spoke of… there’s a change in perspective when JC found out that HJ was Chestnut ie he’d hit a girl.

    From his perspective, meeting Chestnut was good because she’d saved his life but from her persepective, she was ashamed because she’d wanted to let him die together with the ahjusshi.

    Now we come to the perspective of JC as he faces his would be killer, Yoo who’s dying. He changes perspective and attitude when he considers what Yoo had lost.

  57. “You are a wound for me. I can’t see you anymore”.
    AAHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!

  58. @WE, you call that a reason?

  59. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @IB, the anger and resentment of old man Yoo was like a festering wound. HJ’s words about the regrets she had about wanting to let someone die out of her own anger and hate were like scars.

    Understanding this, JC changes tack and takes the perspective of old man Yoo. He understands why he wanted to kill him and acknowledges how good his daughter had been. He assures him that she was not murdered because of how good she was… this heals the wound of the parents in that statement.

    So nice to see that at least the mother apologises to JC. And she reads his notes.

  60. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, you’re watching a different show from us!!! LOL. I guess one of the characters might have end up saying that but I’m glad there was none of that melo stuff.

  61. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF ah HJ dreams that JC runs out in the rain to meet her. Crazy JC… how can the hospital just let him walk out like that!!! (We cannot in Singapore hospitals, I know, I saw people trying LOL)

    The girl brings the umbrella this time.

  62. @GB, well, she didn’t EXACTLY said that, but like:
    “Each time I see you, I remember the worst day of my life”.
    😀 😀 😀
    Well, time for a plan B: romance with prosecutor Shin. 😀

  63. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    So this dream where JC could have had an infected wound in the rain, HJ did manage to change by meeting him.

    More truth comes out about 13 years ago. They both had moments when they hesitated about saving Ahjusshi.

  64. He almost died in an alternative future because she said him the harsh words. Ouch. But ok, with dream manipulation, she couldn’t prevent that now.
    I bet there will be a KISS soon.

  65. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, however Shin is not interested, thank heavens! One Hyang Mi is enough!!

  66. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, we have to trust that this time the kiss is real and not dreamed up by both of them LOL.

    Such a sopping wet kiss!!!

  67. @GB, you can see the split-screens.
    The kiss is both dreamed then real. 🙂

  68. A Great Kiss. How many times do we flash back and forward from her dream to now — and at the end the horizontal split screen in case your head was whirling with the fast changes in lighting.

  69. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    I always find it funny/strange how characters have been together for a long time and then speak to each other as if they are meeting for the first time… like now after the kiss. Heh!

  70. @GB, my father did! He escaped from the hospital and the staff found only after an hour or so. They made a police report, and the police went round searching for him for 4 hours in the night.

  71. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, yes I was noticing the split scene and wondering why the colours were different. So HJ changed some of the dream but not the kissing part LOL.

    Did she initiate the kiss in order to get the kiss going? Possibly because in the split screens he is shown to initiate, but that could be in response to her first kiss.

  72. Have to go, someone is impatiently waiting with a plate of (mildly) curried chicken in hand.
    Bye WE, GB, FF, be well this next week.

  73. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF oh dear! How far away from the hospital did your dad get to?

  74. @GB, it’s to emphatize the GAP with childhood.
    How they recognize after many years being strangers about that.

  75. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Bye @IB!

    I’m rewatching the differently coloured scenes and trying to decipher which is dream and which is real. I think she initiated in both?

  76. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE, I pity the actors standing in the wet for ages for the length of time it takes to shoot the kiss scene from multiple angles.

  77. @GB, he walked home from the hospital. Took him about 3-4 hours, its crazy.

  78. @IB, bye enjoy your curried chicken.

  79. @Gb, I think the blue scene is the dream.

  80. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF I think nowadays it’s harder to get out. There’re people at the gantries and we have to be able to tap our ICs in and out. Your dad must have been all dressed to go home with his IC. … but without a wallet for money and bus card?!?! Didn’t want to call home and ask for someone to come and get him?

  81. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @FF, yes the yellower lighted scenes are the real ones and the bluer scenes are the dreams. So they were similar. HJ made sure that she didn’t change that part of the dream LOL.

  82. I’ve to go. Have a good week!!

  83. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    @WE Bye!

    One protagonst for the next episode was already introduced in this one. Heh!

  84. @GB, you are mostly right, no bus card, no wallet and no handphone. Good night see you next week.

    Bye @WE.

  85. GrowingBeautifully (GB)

    Bye @FF, I’m watching the next episode.
