@thistle at soompi asked this question and I’ll reply here and post there later. Her question: Wasn’t there a scene in the first episode where her dad told her that she was out of the family if she didn’t get W H to marry her? My memory is fuzzy but it was something like that. […]

Fluttering Alert: The Drive-in Theater and Other Things
This is my response to @agdr03. Her comment will be in blue; my reply will be in black. First, a little back story because many of you might have wondered who @agdr03 is. When the Hong sisters’ kdrama Warm and Cozy played in the spring of 2015, she and I bonded while watching and re-watching […]

Fluttering Alert: Weather Alert
As expected, the more complicated the situation becomes for our couple, the more minutes the secondary characters acquire in this kdrama. The secondary characters are there as fillers. Like this scene. Their exaggerated facial expressions remind me of buffoons or jesters in those comedy skits that old people like. They’re absurdly out of place in […]
Fluttering Alert: Heart-Fluttering Moments, Ep 7
I sometimes forget that my long posts have lots of pictures and may take a long while to upload. Sorry. 🙂 Here’s my list of swoon-worthy moments for Episode 7. If you want to add anything, just post. 1. Breakfast date Personally, I love a breakfast date because it opens up the possibility of having […]
Fluttering Alert: No Kiss, No Worries
The writer and director must have deliberated on whether or not to continue with the kiss cliffhanger in Episode 6. Many of us understandably felt cheated that they opted not to begin Episode 7 with WooHyun and YooJung in a lip-lock. But now, I think they made the right call. This 6-second opening scene is […]
Fluttering Heart: Open Thread
Waiting for family to go to church. They’re slowpokes on this cold morning. 🙂 I’m creating this so you @oli, @agdr08, @tsutsuloo, @anna_tan @fany and others (What do we call ourselves? Heartwarmers? Flutterers?) can post your thoughts while I’m gone. Feel free to post spoilers. We all think alike. Our couple can survive anything as […]
Fluttering Alert: When the Shoe’s on the Other Foot…
Last episode, she made him feel jealous. Now the situation is reversed, and she was the one being attacked by the green-eyed monster. WH: Your skin is in good condition. You didn’t even make an appointment so why’d you come? YJ: I came to monitor you since there are too many competitors around. WH: What? […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
I’m not this old yet and I’m hoping that my turkey won’t explode on me and my guests tomorrow but… From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!! I won’t be around tomorrow for the spoilers but you’ll all be in my thoughts while I prepare the food. Our dinner plates won’t have markings on them […]
Fluttering Alert: Episode 7 Spoilers
Warning: This is not a recap. I don’t do recaps because I’m not Korean and I don’t speak Korean. Kindly view my interpretative recounting of this episode in the same way you regard this exuberant dancing. *********** The morning after the kiss. (We got trolled! No pics but let’s just assume that they did kiss.) […]
Fluttering Alert: Random Things
These are my random notes to tide us over till tomorrow/tonight’s episode. 1. @tsutsuloo mentioned this fluttery moment in Episode 6. He looked around and saw how empty his apartment was without her. I said that typically in kdramas the guy’s home is usually cold and sterile and the gal’s home is warm and cozy. […]
Fluttering Alert: Heart-Fluttering Moments, Ep 6
I want to thank all the naysayers, Debbie Downers, and make-up artists out there for panning this romcom. If it weren’t for their scintillating and insightful assessment of this show, I wouldn’t have watched it. Like them, I have a discriminating taste and I will never ever watch a kdrama featuring a rich guy and […]
Fluttering Alert: On YJ’s Many-Splendored Thing
This is a comment by @Anna Tan. I’m posting it here so people can comment on YH’s many different qualities. I agree that YJ has many facets to her and it’s interesting to watch how the actress Yoon EunHye portrays her. I often sense that the writer uses YEH as “source material” or inspiration for […]
