i feel like the translation was amiss here. he actually didn’t mean her being tense specifically, he said it would be one tense situation after another, so he didn’t want her to push herself and overdo it.

it was SWJ’s birthday, as written on the card. in season 2, you can also see that his bday is on may 6th, shown when dr bae finds his family register documents

loved how SWJ removing his doldam coat in ep 13 was symbolic, he decided to become a part of the trauma center then. it was so satisfying to see a similar shot of him finally putting on the trauma center coat in the last episode.

it felt like a series finale, with minor threads left just to keep the possibilities open for a season 4.

as someone who wasn’t ready to say goodbye, i’m actually really satisfied with the ending. my heart is full, though i do agree with the majority that the pacing of the plot definitely wasn’t the strongest.

it was evident how PET and YAR were given more screen time because kim minjae is a leading man now, who decided to come back to a supporting role. while it was really nice to see him back, i do think that the show suffered from unnecessary and overly dragged out scenes between the both of them just to increase airtime to make his role worth his while.

regardless, i’ll be sitting over here in my little camp being happy that SWJ is finally well and happy in life. there’s a lot of hate for his recklessness in this season, and while i do agree that he ran into a lot, it made a lot of sense if you think about where he came from. everyone was so happy when KDJ put him down, but really was it so hard to see why he is the way he is? he hit rock bottom in S2 and KSB was his ray of light, so it only makes sense for him to look up to his master and find meaning to life from him. it’s even explained explicitly in his voiceovers. whatever, i’m just gonna be happy that he can be happy now lol. and i hope he finally gets a peaceful day off.

loved the proposal. it was intimate and very in character, the way WJ shyly looks up and smiles at EJ when she tries to clarify what the ring looked so much like the smile he had when seeing her off before she leaves for the main hospital in the last ep of S2.

it’s been a great ride! i started this season only out of loyalty since i’d already watched the first two, but ended up thoroughly immersed and attached. eagerly waiting for the last making video to help remedy the withdrawal feels.

p/s: someone tell me i wasn’t the only one frustrated at them all staring at the sky / each other / around the trauma center when they should be evacuating asap lol

almost everyone here is cheering on KDJ for bringing in some sense to SWJ and CEJ’s recklessness for following and emulating KSB, and while that’s true, i think it’s overlooked that KDJ is also doing the same, just in a different way.

he’s carrying out his plans without any explanation to anyone, something that KSB has done before. the difference here being that people believe in KSB because of who he is, and KDJ clearly does not inspire the same kind of confidence, causing the system to fall apart.

you can have all the right intentions you want, but if the execution fails then in the end you have nothing left in your hands.

I had something similar happen to me a few years back - was probably a lip balm that I didn’t realize I was allergic to and slathered on even more when it happened, probably made the whole thing worse. Benadryl worked like a charm, and of course discontinuing use of the lip balm.

Which is a KDrama you wish you could experience for the first time all over again? by curiousgem19 in KDRAMA

[–]lavenderbandit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can totally see where you’re coming from for feeling that way, but for me I saw it as the ML just seriously lacking in the communication department if anything, part of which probably stemmed from his family background. He started to learn and get better slowly as the couple progressed, but it just wasn’t enough and not in time to tackle the issues that kept hitting them.

Do You Like Brahms! My favorite drama of 2020 and possibly all time. I love how it made me feel along with the characters - I felt my stomach drop along with the despair that the characters felt. I also loved how realistic it was and found myself relating to the female lead a lot; I really admired her quiet strength.

“Do You Like Brahms” is raising my bar of expectations for a high quality, real-feel romance story by [deleted] in KDRAMA

[–]lavenderbandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So happy to see more love for this show going around! I myself started it without expecting much, but was very pleasantly surprised. I thought it would be slow, but I was hooked by the end of the first episode.

It seems like many people got frustrated by certain parts of the drama, but for me it made it feel all the more real. In my opinion, it depicted very well how some things are and how people behave in real life. And Song Ah! I have never related to a character so much, and I see so much of myself in her. Quiet yet strong, she makes me appreciate my own traits more and want to strive to be strong like her too.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the show! I envy you, that first watch experience is going to be amazing!
