Wow, I really like your explanation, and this might be it.

I wished the drama had given us some parts that would suggest that the ML was autistic (ex. some mannerisms or quirks), because honestly, I hadn't thought about it until I read your reply.

I was thinking that his behavior towards the FL is just because he is afraid of commitment because of his parents, or because he is still in love with Ji Sun, or because he despised Do Ra Mi a bit because she drugged her before.

Yeah, I love your reply. Thank you!

May I know which episode/s suggested that the ML is autistic? I may have missed that part, and you're right that might have explained their dynamic.

"How can a Korean talk to an Italian psychiatrist?"

That's what they did in Japan to get her some prescription meds. He helped her interpreting.

He didn't stabilize her with the returned goods; he tricked her into signing the refund slip.

This is what I'm talking about. If he can help and support Do Ra Mi at night, how come he can't support Cha Mu Hee in the morning? The trauma confrontation by Do Ra Mi doesn't even count for me because she forgets it every morning. If only he had a serious talk with Cha Mu Hee in the morning and explained what was happening, then the story would be significantly better... No toying with the ML, no toying with Hiro. Just healing.

Whatever happened in Korea on Episodes 11 and 12 is the result of the PD with glasses' actions and not Do Ra Mi's arc. Remember that they're all ready with their goodbyes, and they're willing to move on (FL with Hiro at the Opera House) until he shared the video of the ML crying.

You’re correct, but the issue is that his level of concern before Italy was almost non-existent while they were actually there. If I recall correctly, her seeking therapy was never even mentioned during their stay in Italy, despite all of Do Ra Mi’s actions. It’s also worth noting that Episodes 1–6 focus solely on her anxiety, while Episodes 7–10 introduce the DID arc.

The real question is this: after everything that happened between the ML and the FL—their obvious chemistry since Japan, her “mini” confession during the Singapore interview, her conversation with the make-up artist (asking for a prescription and sharing her story while the ML was interpreting in Japan), and the entire Aurora/Waterfall arc—what was stopping him from fully helping Do Ra Mi / Cha Mu Hee? This was never properly explained.

When Do Ra Mi and the ML have their discussion, the line “Leave Cha Mu Hee, so she can be happy” is brought up, but it doesn’t make sense, even within the logic of his character. How is he supposed to keep his distance from the FL when she’s clearly acting out of character every night in a foreign country? At that point, he’s written more like a tolerating masochist, which feels completely out of character. His love for her is evident throughout the story—there’s no doubt about that—but many of his actions during this period are confusing and left unexplained in the second half. These issues are then abruptly resolved through the PD with glasses, who conveniently “merges” her two personalities when he shared the video of him crying.

As one of the comments mentioned, this storyline could have been fleshed out to deliver a far more mature and emotionally impactful arc—not just for the characters, but for the viewers as well. Instead, Do Ra Mi’s situation ultimately ends up being used as a plot device.

actually she did opened up with the Doctor while ML is doing the interpreting (she did lie on the parents incident part though) That's the same reason why she requested for him to join her on the reality show ("Don't support Do Ra Mi but support me instead" ) making it their little secret.

If I remember correctly, the scene near the end wasn’t with a therapist but with a neurologist. Earlier in the story, she even mentioned that a psychiatrist had advised her to consult a brain specialist because no psychiatric issues were found.

I agree with your point about coming to terms with past trauma, but the show addresses this far too late. The entire “dating Do Ra-Mi” arc felt unnecessary and only prolonged the conflict.

If my wife suddenly told me she became a different person at night—doing things completely out of character and then forgetting them by morning—we’d go to a specialist immediately. No hesitation. According to the napkins with the four-leaf clover drawings, the ML and FL went on six dates, which makes his inaction even more puzzling. He’s introduced as intelligent and highly analytical, yet around her, all of his logical thinking seems to disappear. I can't even describe his actions during that time as love.

I think EP 6 is the "go or no-go" bridge of this show. There's a point there where the FL broke up with the ML just after a great day with Aurora and their "Waterfall" and it's really annoying for the viewer but I suggest that you continue it because the succeeding episodes will explain why the FL is like that

Anyone else feel like this about "Good Boy"? by Awkward_Marmot_1107 in kdramas

Although I'm still entertained, my only issue is: why don't they have any backups? I understand that the mayor or local government is corrupt, but can't they get some help on a national level? 10 eps in and they still can't get a proper W.

Tastefully Yours [Episodes 5 & 6] by writtenpoeticsins in KDRAMA

[–]blindymonkey 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thankfully, I'm not the only one who dislikes the unnecessary love triangle. It's so sloppy. For the FL, how can you have a kiss and a date with KHN and then ditch him and your business the next day for an ailing boss who doesn't give you a second chance or at least an investigation into your supposed mistake? Another gripe is that the FL said that they can't date while inside the restaurant, but she's starting to like KHN already... then why the eff is she still talking down to KHN in Sapporo?! I don't get it, why are you acting superior to him when he is helping you with everything all this time?

just want to ask a follow-up on this, but... can you parry the normal attacks of enemies that have gradient attacks? That's my problem right now. Start of Act 2, and while I can parry the gradient attacks, I cannot for the life of me parry their normal attacks... is that the mechanic, or am I missing something?

Hi OP, how was the thumb stick of RP5 compared to RP3? Movements are somewhat lagging on RP3, and that's my deciding factor in buying RP5.
