they finally kissed #lmaooo

[iubar12]

Are the writers going to do us like that??

Jin I Soo and Lee Ganghyun go from bickering like kids to comforting each other at their lowest. Ganghyun goes from telling him to go home to texting him to come to the station because they got a new case. Ganghyun takes Jin I Soo to her comfort place so that he can clear his mind after learning the truth about his mother's death. I Soo saying "You trust your father, and I trust you" to Lee Ganghyun when she was on probation and desperately wanted to prove that her father was innocent and that he was framed. Ganghyun scolding him because he put himself in danger and I soo trying not to repeat that. And most importantly what about the fact when they almost drowned together while trying to arrest Bori?? What are you gon say about Jin I soo cupping her face and telling her to believe in herself when she told him that she couldn't swim ??? Carrying her over the water the entire time she was unconscious while he was struggling to breathe and stay over the water himself. Are the writers really going to do us like that?? T_T

"LEE GANGHYUN WAKE UP"

P.S : Jin I Soo being jealous over Park Junyoung and Lee Ganghyun and then asking Junyoung if they shared any feelings or ever dated and then getting flustered on being asked if he liked Ganghyun was the cutest thing everrr.

DESIGNATED SURVIVOR: 60 DAYS

GENRES: Drama, Political Procedural

SUMMARY: A temporary acting President has to deal with keeping a country afloat amid a crisis, internal espionage, and new suits.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Dust particles, botched press conferences, testy teens, VIPs, bombings, assassinations, military intrigue, national abandonment, hacking, camping, and eyeglasses.

HOT TAKE: I have not yet seen the American version of this show, but damn, this was a democratic rollercoaster of an experience. Everyone is out to win something whether it's an improved South Korea, dirty revenge, or just maintaining some semblance of governmental sanity.

This show has a real 'let's use the same 3 hallway sets over and over again' problem, but the familiar environments just made me care that much more about the acting masterclasses happening between their walls.

Night has come- Episode 5 and 6 (INCLUDES SPOILERS)(WARNING: LOOOOOONNNGGG RANT AHEAD)

AGAIN, this post includes spoilers (All my posts do) so if you haven't seen this episode, I recommend not to read this post.

However, if you want to know just how bad your mind will be mess up, you are welcome to stay.

.

.

.

.

.

.

First of all

I had this very interesting post that I was about to post in which I explained how the girl with the ax in the intro was Lee Yoon Seo, and now I see that it was a good idea not to post it because it would have made me look stupid considering what happened at the end of episode six.

So, that saved me.

EPISODE 5:

A FREAKING ROLLERCOASTER.

It was kind of obvious that Park Woo Ram was Mafia but the way it was delivered? that was unexpected. But let's not jump ahead of the whole kidnapping/dividing thing, because WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT.

I, for once, knew Go Kyung Jun was going to be a pain in the butt but I will not take away the credit for his intelligence.

Like, the way he was right about who was the mafia? That was detective work right there. The way he delivered the confession? I won't lie, torture is a good way to make someone confess to something you had no part of but Woo Ram was mafia.

THE TORTURE:

I am sure Kyung Jun is a citizen. I have no proof but I have zero doubts. But, I do think that he'll be able to kill somebody if it means protecting himself or someone he cares about.

As it was shown in episode 5, he tortured Woo Ram to get a confession out of him, and as an avid reader of mafia romances -and currently writing my own, if I may say- the way he managed the torture was exceptional.

Tumblr don't flag me, but a girl has to admit when torture is on point, and this one was. It wasn't the physical torture that surprised me but the psychological. The way he would smile in a clear way that showed he didn't care about making somebody suffer was the CHERRY IN TOP OF THE ICE.

(And if I may mention, he is very cute.)

However, every bad character has a soft side and as we saw when he locked himself in the canteen, he started crying because he caused someone to die, and he tortured someone and everybody hates him so that ought to hurt.

THE SECRET PATHWAY:

When I tell you my mouth went

I have a feeling

AND THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT FEELING

That the ghost is trying to help Yoon Seo, as a matter of fact, I don't even think Woo Seok is dead but I'll dive into that theory later.

What I mean by the ghost trying to help Yoon Seo, I mean that the ghost seems to be leaving clues for her to find. Why is the ghost doing this? I don't know but I'm sure they are connected somehow.

When Yoon Seo found the secret room, I have to admit I was a bit disappointed in how she didn't stay longer to investigate.

Girl reads crime and mystery novels, and she just looked for a bit and left.

If that had been me? I would have looked through the freaking cameras in the room to try and find out who was the mafia (We know who is the mafia, we are expecting the results) but she just left, so that was a bit disappointing.

I feel the ghost is making every clue obvious for her to find because she is not looking properly. You would expect her to be more invested into the whole thing but as of right now the only thing she has found was how the second body didn't had defense marks and the black light used to look at the door.

The door was obvious, it was not as if someone could break a door open like that with the power of hate.

However, everything else has been the ghost doing. Finding the entry to the secret hall? The ghost pushed the boxes.

The picture? The ghost had to put a light on it so she would actually find it interesting.

The exit? Again, the ghost had to say "Girl, it's this way" and I find that hilarious.

The ghost is carrying the show.

THE GAME:

This game is cheating in the most awful way possible. Like, it is legal for someone to not vote! But the game changed the rules and now they either vote or die.

As I approach the ending, I am allowed to touch the rules of the game.

Everybody must vote. As we saw in episode 3, the consequences are catastrophic. Great way to get rid of most of the cast.

The game must take place inside the designated zone. I am not a tech wizard but there must be some kind of sensor that alerts whoever is controlling this game when someone steps out, right?

If two people have the same amount of votes, then the voting has to be repeated and if it happens again, then they all die.

The third one was genius. Like, I can't find any crack in the rules and that is amazing and frustrating.

and finally,

what we were all expecting,

Woo Seok dying:

This was sad, and it probably hurt me more than it hurt Yoon Seo

BUT

I don't think he is dead

Like, sure. His head did the ringing of possession and his eyes went white but I don't think he died.

I think he is alive

I think he is not a mafia

I think he is controlling the game

GOSH, IT FEELS GOOD TO SAY IT.

Why do I think he is not dead?

All the other deaths have been very gruesome

(This is just an example, I won't put all of them)

Even the ones with the pillow and the curtain were gruesome and awful but Woo Seok?

Look at that

His head is not even underwater,

his body is not belly down

he is just there

floating,

like a water lili

He looks like a model.

So I don't think he is dead

Him dying defies the purpose of the whole show

He wants to protect Yoon Seo and dying won't grant him that

Now, if he is actually dead then that was a stupid move from the producers but I'm sure we'll get our plot twist.

KIM SO MI:

We all knew she was mafia.

We all know she wants to survive

But she is a psycho

Like, real psycho

Why all of them thought that leaving the ax out while there is a killer on the loose was a good idea, I don't know, but she has it and she has a victim in mind.

The end of episode six clearly shows her about to slice Yoon Seo open, but the the screen goes dark and she screams

And I don't think it was a scream of "Getting ready to kill you in the most awful way possible" but I think it was a scream of "Something is awful and I am about to die."

I think the ghost showed up, or the doctor/police stopped her

It may be hopeful thinking, but I think she is dead

like, really dead.

Yoon Seo can't die. She is the main character and even though kdrama writers and producers are fond of killing the main characters (we all know what I mean) killing Yoon Seo would be a stupid move.

Yoon Seo remains alive, So Mi? I'm not sure.

Now, this is not a point but just some questions and theories I have.

Why is Oh Jung Won so protective of Yoon Seo? I mean, I would also defend my best friend with my life but the way Jung Won is so protective makes me think there is something else happening here.

Jin Da Beom. He is one of the main characters. Why is he a main character acting like an extra? This is annoying me.

This may be random, and this is me being crazy but I am SO SURE that if Kyung Jun and Yoon Seo joined forces, they would find the mafia.

Besides, the way he only stops when she speaks? I may romanticizing stuff but you don't join kdrama land while being sane.

You are welcome to call me out in something I may have mistaken, and you are welcome to share your theories with me too!

Until next episode.
