And he actually smile and laugh when she is around him which he never did the whole 1 year after their last meeting at Granada when the game make him question his sanity. He didnt understand it either but later, he realised that he likes her for her sincerity - the one he never get from Su Jin or Yu Ra. He just unintentionally ask her to stay by his side since he is just too scared to be alone. Hee Joo is like a buffer between the game and Jin Woo. Plus, the most important of all is how her presence made him feels safe - even when Hyeong Seok NPC is in front of him (during the rain scene). He was impressed with her ability to feed her family and was also taken back by her kindness (the length she is willing to go to help him either in interpreting to taking care of him when he's sick), to her quirkiness on how she explodes when she's mad. And as for Jin Woo, its obvious that he falls for Hee Joo's kindness and strength. All this small details contribute to why she loves him. And later when she realised the length Jin Woo went through to find Se Joo. The mixture of Jin Woo kindness (still giving her the full amount of the contract), to him touching her soft spot (playing guitar), to him still taking care of his ex-wife (despite he didnt need to), to him facing real & death situation when he falls at her hostel, to her taking care of him and Jin Woo asking her to stay. You could see clearly why Hee Joo falls for Jin Woo. Now regarding the romance part of the drama, I thought it was done very tastefully and slowly - in a mature kind of way. And not to mention that despite his trouble with the game, he still treat people with utmost respect and care despite he himself is facing a real life and death situations. Its evidenced with the way he talk to other people despite their status – he actually use a polite language (instead of Banmal) to everyone even to his low-level workers. Aside from his outburst in Episode 1, Jin Woo is actually a really nice, humble and level-headed guy. ![]() Its been a really long time that I’m this emotionally invested in a character and Hyun Bin portrayal of Jin Woo made me feel Jin Woo’s soul. I have watched Hyun Bin for the past 15 years and I have to say that this is simply his best role to date (although Hyun Bin's Robin from 'Hyde, Jekyll, Me' is my soulmate :P). He played Jin Woo in such a depth that you literally feel his pain just by looking in his eyes. And I have to give credit to Hyun Bin for that. Jin Woo has become one of my very fave Kdramas’ lead characters ever. Hee Joo didnt kill the enemies like Jeong Hun would (since after all she cant see Hyeong Seok's NPC), but her presence and existence is like a buffer between Jin Woo and the game and that particular scene perfectly show what would her role be in Jin Woo’s life in the future. The dynamic of Jin Woo and Hee Joo’s relationship is also foreshadow since in the earlier episode on how she’s sitting in front of Jin Woo in the rain is making him feel protected and safe. We also know as early as in Episode 2 that Jin Woo’s leg will be injured but his limp is cured the moment he’s playing the game. We also know right away that Marco is the one who hunt Se Joo the moment he made his appearance in the drama (as a blue checkered guy is the one who shot Se Joo). I mean, we after all can predict Jeong Hun’s death the moment Jin Woo asked Jeong Hun to join him at Granada (as in the train flashback scene, Jin Woo is alone and not with Jeong Hun). It sure raise a lot of questions but you know whats coming with that. ![]() She did a looooot of foreshadowing in this drama. And I salute the writer for her ability to engage the viewers like she did in this drama.Īside from that, I really love the writer’s little clues here and there. It made you care for the characters, only to play you around and makes you wanting for more. You know that a story is great when it can evoke you all kind of emotions and this drama is exactly that. The editing was made to show the future first and later flashback scenes will follow aka Christopher Nolan’s ‘Momento’ kind of storytelling. I love how unpredictable it is like literally, you cant guess whats coming and I love how it is structured to make you speculate and ask questions. I love how groundbreaking and interesting it is that each episode seemed like its only 15 to 30 minutes long. Unpredictable plot with script that makes you constantly think & analyse (SPOILER: Ending Explained) I really love this drama as a whole.
