It’s hard to imagine how the drama can get any better. This week was definitely peak for me. The pieces of each storyline have been beautifully illuminated, and I’m ready to sit back and bask in it. Luckily, this is what the drama lets us do for a bit.

Woong and Yeon-su awkwardly and happily settle back into dating, with all the hiccups and sweetness we might expect. I love these two together so much it actually hurts. Whether it’s their “accidental” meetups, silly and swoony missteps, or that gorgeous black-and-white sequence at the gallery — well done. And perhaps Yeon-su’s line about loving Woong for who he is encapsulates this drama’s loveliness best.

Our Beloved Summer isn’t afraid to strike a balance between sweet and bittersweet, though, and maybe that’s why the emotions feel so deep. Whether it’s the journey the leads have been on all this time, or the heartache in their pasts, or even the heartache of our second leads, the story has a wistfulness to it that I’m truly going to miss. - dramabeans

Top notch acting btw. ❤

You know, people say, “I didn’t ask to be born,” I think we did, and that’s why we’re here. We are here, and we have to do something nurturing that we respect before we go. We must. It is more interesting, more complicated, more intellectually demanding and more morally demanding to love somebody, to take care of somebody, to make one other person feel good.

If you want to hang on to your sanity, hang on to yourself, don’t love anything, it’ll hurt. And of course, that’s true not just of African Americans, it’s true of all sorts of people. It’s so risky. People don’t want to get hurt. They don’t want to be left. They don’t want to be abandoned, you see. It’s as though love is always some present you’ve given somebody else. And it’s really a present you’re giving yourself.

人生三千事，事事扰人心，只有释怀，才能看淡，只有看淡，才能看开，只有看开，才能知足，只有知足，才能幸福。

有时候，你期待什么，什么就会离你越远；你执着谁，就会被谁伤害得最深。做事不必太期待，坚持不必太执着；学会放下，放下不切实际的期待，放下没有结果的执着；凡事要看淡、看开、看透一些，过去的就别再翻回去，唯有当下的快乐与幸福。

这一生无法重来，

所以，顺其自然的活吧，

弄不懂的事，没必要非得懂；

猜不透的人，又何必太在乎；

说不清的理，干脆保持沉默。

看开烦恼，看淡得失，

过好眼前的每一分每一秒，

珍惜身边的每个人每份情，

才是这一生中最重要的事情！
