watching this last episode i'm just...... why SH.... why call SW?!!?!?? My poor JS's face when he didn't get a voicemail. Like i'm glad they were happy in the end but damn... my feelings...
anon cont: piggybacking off that... why do i feel like if SW had left a voicemail for SH then SH might have had a more difficult time choosing JS? Like I totally believe JS and SH were supposed to be together and really do like each other ... but the part of me that studied psychology at college tells me there's a part of SH that may have very well had chosen SW from the beginning if SW was just a little bit clearer with his intentions...!!
there’s two different things at play here anon, and I think you’re right in saying that if seonwoo had been clearer with his feelings earlier, i don’t want to go as far to say they would’ve ended up together bc sungho’s feelings for junsung are still there and junsung would still pursue him even if seonwoo had been more forward, but I think it would’ve been harder, or seonwoo would’ve been a stronger pull, but I don’t wanna say they would’ve ended up together first of all bc I adore 2sung so much, but also for reasons that I’ve ranted about way too many times, I don’t think sungho and seonwoo would’ve been right for each other. that line he wrote in his letter about waking up and seeing sungho up early that first day and feeling like he saw someone similar to him sticks out to me bc I do think they have some similarities, it’s almost like, and I say this for everyone seonwoo connects with, sungho is someone sungho wishes he could be, be it his bravery or how carefree he is or whatever, and I think seeing their similarities makes him more wistful for that. and I do think there’s attraction and connection but I don’t think that manifesting into a relationship would’ve ever been the best way for it to go for them. and I stick by believing seonwoo needing someone that can keep him more in check and call him out and while I think sungho has some elements of that, I think seonwoo looks at him as younger and cuter and their relationship would fall into that imbalance. sungho needs someone who dotes on him but also is on a level with him, and I don’t think seonwoo should be the older, in charge person he thinks he needs to be.
and while it confused me for a second that sungho didn’t call junsung, I chalk this more up to the show itself, bc junsung and sungho becoming established before the end, in their eyes, isn’t fun tv, bc now they can’t continue that storyline, and I feel like, whether told to or not, sungho knew that calling junsung was obvious and so he didn’t do it. maybe he did just want to show seonwoo how grateful he was, idk, but I see it more as a last ditch effort to stir up some anticipation. but sungho didn’t have to call junsung for me to know he would pick him, I mean come on it’s so damn obvious, and I also quite like it bc it stays true to this thing that I’ve liked about them where their relationship began and grew and almost thrived outside of the show’s rules and premise. they never really needed a phone call or voicemail to communicate their feelings bc they just did it themselves, it’s like they never felt the need to stick to these displays of affection the show put in place and I kind of love that. it shows that no matter what, when two people like each other, there’s really no framework that their feelings need to be put in or conveyed through, it’ll kinda just happen. and plus it gives them another reason to playfully banter which is just adorable.
