WHEN THE PHONE RINGS 「 지금 거신 전화는 」 Dir. Park Sang Woo – Episode 6

[25shadesoffebruary]

I know it's ridiculous, but I imagined it sometimes. Us being completely ordinary just like everyone else.

[sunlighthroughthe-ashes]

love resides in the commonplace — intimacy exists in the spaces of ordinary service: and paik sa-eon is the very embodiment of this kind of devotion — attention towards the minutiae of a relationship: the tiny acts of tenderness that can make or break a union.

the kind of devotion that says: "i'll wash these fruits for you so that it's safe for you to eat." "i'll lower the bed for you so you're comfortable while you sleep." "i'll take care of your everyday needs because that's exactly what i want to do — take care of you every single day."

there's a special kind of bittersweet longing leaking through sa-eon's eyes when heejoo begs him not to go — an inchoate ache as he cradles her hand to his face: almost as if his lips are anchoring themselves to her skin; reassuring his own self that she's safe, unharmed — still with him. still his to touch. still his to look after.

simple gestures are often how you measure the soul of a marriage — whether you're with someone who cares about the temperature of the water when he's washing your hair. whether you're with someone who'll dry it for you with painstaking carefulness.

as poet ilya kaminsky wrote: "soaping together — that is sacred to me / you can fuck anyone — but with whom can you sit in water?"

to sa-eon; heejoo is as inevitable as the weather — an endless force in his life. a forever presence: someone so threaded to the fibers of his being that he can't help but say: "tell me how to hate you: (because i'm physically incapable of looking at you with anything but love.)"

Stages of expressing your feelings for your wife: A step-by-step guide by communication extraordinaire Baek Sa-eon

Have a crush on a girl for 20 years and refuse to admit those feelings because your home life is a bit crazy, to say the least.

Orchestrate a situation such that you end up marrying your crush without anyone getting a whiff about your feelings for her.

Maintain minimal interaction with said wife for three years because you believe that you're holding her hostage in your marriage.

Realize that your wife is equally obsessed with you and is more than willing to match your freak.

Some examples of things that you can tell her when you're in the final stage:

You look so ugly right now (while she's crying).

I like you (while you're drunk).

I like feeling your heartbeat.

I know far more about you than you think.

I feel regretful. I don't think I've done enough for you.

Tell me how to hate you. Tell me how to not love you.

[lastofthe20thcenturygirls]

if you ever feel like a failure just remember that the main kidnapper wanted hee-joo to divorce sa-eon and ended up kickstarting their lovestory instead

[dangermousie]

This is everything I ever want and recent kdramas so rarely give me!

And she grabs him!

And the first words she ever says to him directly are to beg him not to go AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA the romanticism I can't! (but also, she finally says something to someone who HEARS her! But also his face as he hears her talking to him directly for the first time - because yes she called his name but it was instinctive and this!!!!)

I am sniffling for real!

When he kisses her hand...

[heyanobody]

Tell me... Hong Hee-joo. Tell me how to hate you. Tell me how to not love you.
