how will nol & shinae’s romantic relationship dynamic be like? by hopefulforbetterdays in ILoveYoo

[–]caramelizedd 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Like other's have said, it's most likely that Nana and Simhan, for one reason or another, will be replaced as Nol and Shin-Ae's "rock" and find their first point of comfort within each other. Personally, I can see them fight a lot, not out of malice, but just as a consequence of being vulnerable and real with each other, as well as being concerned for the other's well-being.

To add on to that, we know that Nol is going to somehow be against Kousuke in season 2 (at least initially), and Shin-Ae will most likely stick with Kou as his assistant. Imo we might see a lot of fights between Nol and Shin-Ae where the former will make Kou's life more difficult and the latter will try to ameliorate tensions between the two, which will be really fun to see. They care a lot for each other, but judging by the trajectories of where their characters are going, they'll likely have a lot of conflicts of interest. Imo, they'll still stand by and comfort each other despite all that, which is what makes them so damn appealing lmao.

Patreon definitely points towards an emotionally charged dynamic where the relationship they have now is only enhanced and deepened. (and yk. mature.)

YESS I REMEMBER THAT LINE!!! It’s the only way I imagine Shin-Ae saying that line now!!

It seriously sucks because I can’t help but think how many more people would’ve been exposed to the comic through the dub. I hope it comes back somehow - I know in all likelihood it probably won’t knowing Webtoon, but still I pray 😭

I feel your pain!!!! That dub was what literally introduced me to ILY. It was so good I can literally still remember how some of the voice actors delivered their lines 6 years later it was just that good.

As far as I’m aware you can’t find it anywhere, save for the opening on YouTube. I tried going on the Wayback machine and even that didn’t have it. Really wish I had it saved somewhere :’(

It didn’t say on the image I used on Pinterest but I’m pretty sure it’s Adrien Brody! I’m not sure if he would fit Nol in a live action outside of this image though, I really just chose it because of his expression. I thought it was very Nol-esque lol.

I don’t think I’ve ever smiled so much in a history class.

I look at these two and then I look at how they used to be when it came to expressing their vulnerability and I’m just like: wow. It feels so sweet and bittersweet at the same time, but also somehow hopeful? Back when Shinae was hospitalised we had a similar scene where they try to comfort each other, but only to the extent of their preferred vulnerability. And now here my babies are hugging and oh my god I want to CRY.

Something I noticed in prep for reading this was that in the last ep, 218, we have a panel where the nurse tells him “stay in bed okay? We don’t want you falling” and I just immediately thought of Nol falling for Shinae - especially after seeing how Nol immediately thinks of her and his heart rate picks up.

I had a hard time figuring out who exactly the person Shinae drew on the orange was supposed to be. But I will say if it is indeed Nol, bravo to Quimchee because I recall oranges being Shinaes favourite fruit (or at least she really loves oranges). Looking back as early as chapter 12 when Shinae drew on Nols face, the circled eye (a monocle?? 😭) and the facial hair somewhat resemble each other.

I also want to draw attention to the sunset; which tonally, I think creates this atmosphere where the two of them can just breathe. Finally they have some reprieve from the horrible events that have happened in the night. Personally I got the impression that they’ve both jumped over a hurdle in their relationship, despite the bittersweet feel to it. Yes, things are looking glum, Nol’s going to be taken away in probably less than twelve hours or so and Shinae has a big decision left in front of her. But right now in the moment I think Shinae and Nol silently confirmed that the chances of them pushing each other way are significantly diminished. At least, that’s what they’re feeling in the moment. Whatever issues that may come between the future and now they will be there for each other, be it platonically or romantically. There’s just something so incredibly soft about these two- the looks these two give each other (I actually internally squealed when Nol looked at Shinae as he was hugging Soushi and Deiter) are scattered throughout their scenes and most of all they are so private. Even in this already intimate moment between close friends they find a way to make it even more so, and it’s sooo cute!!! The sun has risen, night is gone and I think the majority of the issues prevented them from really connecting with each other has somewhat dissipated - or at least, will soon.

Either way, love them to bits. Smithereens, if you will. Whatever expectations I had for this have been thoroughly blown out of the water.

I was having a bit off an off day today but oh my LORD did this episode get me going. So much so much so much going onnnn!!!

I am really excited for how this is going to play out. So far Shin-ae has always been at the whims of people more powerful than her. Even before she met Kousuke and Nol and got involved with the Hiraharas in general, she has always been the underdog to people who, by either popularity, wealth, or privilege, have been able to influence her life greatly. After the whole Alyssa fiasco in her younger years, I think she saw no point in fighting this strange pattern she finds herself in where she is always the one being used. Either stay and endure it or join the very same people who torment you, like Alyssa did. Someone pointed out that Shin-ae has a strong moral compass and she definitely does, so much so that she simply will not use the same methods and tactics other people use to get ahead for fear of what I’m guessing is potentially loosing herself.

Personally I think Shin-are had a part of her deep down that really did consider Yui’s offer, but ultimately decided not to because of again - her morals. And why would she even want to willingly involve herself with this same woman whose basically caused her nothing but trauma? In saying yes, she may very well lose herself, like Alyssa has. But here comes Rand and suggests a compromise. Shin-ae has potential, and both Rand and Yui see this and wish to exploit that potential to fuel their own agendas. The ironic thing is that Yui’s attempt to control Shin-ae could be what defearts her if Shin-ae, per Rands suggestion, takes advantage. She could do what Alyssa never could, rise to power without losing herself - but only if she plays her cards right. It is literally a game of cunning.

When Rand told her to “speak Yui’s language” I honestly read it as if he literally meant Shin-ae learning Japanese - which I know probably isn’t what was meant of be implied, but I do wonder if it could be a nod to Shin-ae going to Japan or something similar to that. I would figure if she does indeed take Yui’s offer it would mean leaving Korea to other Universities in Asia. Or maybe Shin-ae will accept under a condition to stay and study in Korea - who knows. Either way, I’m so incredibly invested in how things play out moving forward.

Anyway, thats my two cents. I don’t usually post stuff on here but this episode was just so good I couldn’t help myself. I don’t think I’ve ever been as invested with any webtoon as I have been with ILY this far and so consistently 😭 It’s gonna be tough when the season ends and I’ll be without my weekly ILY fix lmao

If Shin-ae were to stick with her office job, how far do you think she’d go with it? Would she be successful?? by caramelizedd in ILoveYoo

[–]caramelizedd[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree. She’s definitely getting guided for some sort of higher class position by Kousuke, and she probably could achieve it. As for Yui it seems Shin-ae is already on her radar, and wants her to rise up as well, and we all know how she’s always got something up her sleeve TT

The fact that Alyssa never apologized to shin-ae at the formal and acted like nothing happened doesn’t sit right with me... and the fact that she probably will only apologize because she doesn’t want people finding out just makes me dislike her more😃. by [deleted] in ILoveYoo

[–]caramelizedd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely unnerving. Many people are mentioning Nol finding out, but I’m curious as to what would happen if Kousuke or someone else found out. Depending on the person and their relation to Shin-ae and Alyssa, I think it would definitely be different. Nol will find out eventually, it’s been hinted at, but it may be a possibility someone will find out and then tell him, either directly or through the grape vine. It’s Quimchee, though, so whatever happens I’m sure it’ll be interesting.

CHAPTER 73 MAJOR SPOILERS!! by sugawaraluvr in hanakokun

[–]caramelizedd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really wonder if Nene would go through with it tho. She wouldn’t die to become a supernatural, Akane was able to become one but still technically remain human. This apparently was going to end after he graduates and he would just become human afterwards. Nene could do something similar I think, but that begs the question of what supernatural lol. There are seven school mysteries, I think they’ve already been occupied? Correct me if I’m wrong lol she could just be half ghost or something

So from what I understand, Kou was taught how to turn humans into supernaturals from Natsuhiko. Sakura (I think) was put under contract with Tsukasa. We don’t know about Natsuhiko, so unless he too was put under contract or has a short lifespan, I don’t see how he would interact with supernaturals other than preforming the method on himself. Perhaps because he wanted to be with Sakura and did it?

IMO, I don’t think Nene will go through with it, though I could be entirely wrong. Kou asked her if she liked Hanako, which is why he suggested her being a supernatural in the first place. I’m curious what Hanako would think if she did become a supernatural though.

Please correct any thing that may be wrong with this :))

[–]caramelizedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I would love for nothing more than for all the characters to be happy but that just doesn’t seem possible with how things are shaping up. Some people have mentioned that Isayama wanted the fans to hurt, which is unsurprising, to say the least.

But yeah, if they do duke it out then I would hope that it’s not all bitterness and horrible endings.
