Twinkling Watermelon 반짝이는 워터멜론 // Episode 13

i am deadass SOBBING

this scene got me crying so hard you guys couldnt imagine how this made me feel,, the way he had practiced the song in sign language for her (who is learning the language just now so she can communicate with the world properly) and was gonna SIGN IT for her in front of everyone at the goddamn festival because he wanted to dedicate it to her and the way he panicked when he forgot the lyrics because he thought he was gonna disappoint her again but instead she hugged him (she was deadass crying because she felt seen, appreciated and included)...... yeah

i am simply at a loss of words like im incapable of wording any coherent thoughts right now

(Twinkling Watermelon ep 13)

YICHAN STRUGGLING TO SEND CHEONGHA A FAX?? FALLING TO THE FLOOR IN FRUSTRATION WITH ALL HIS CRUMPLED UP PAPERS? THE FIGHT, THE WATCHING, THE SKETCHBOOK CONFESSION, THE SONG ALL FOR HER 🤧🤧🤧 AND HE FELL FOR HER BEFORE SEKYUNG EVEN CHOSE EUNGYEOL AH I'M SO EMO 😭😭😭😭😭

the absolute cutest part for me was in the original past, Yichan chased after Sekyung, got rejected, lost his hearing, and THEN dated Cheongah. i was really worried about the butterfly affect (or, in Eungyeol and Eunyoo's case, the bull in a china shop affect) making it so if those things didn't happen, he wouldn't have ended up with Cheongah, but here he goes still choosing her 🥺 here he goes punching abelists for her 🥺 here he goes learning sign language and teaching his friends to greet her 🥺🥺🥺 here is Yichan, who fell in love with Cheongah dispite them being in "diffrent worlds", and immediately showed her off. AND THEY DID ALL OF IT basically by themselves 😭💔💔

+ 5 bonus points for Eunyoo getting happy when Eungyeol told her he started liking "Sekyung" after she came back from the US, so he truly only fell for Eunyoo and not her mom

They really gave us a happy Ha Yichan having some domestic moments with his cute girlfriend, an adorable Ha Yichan kicking his feet because grandmother said to him he is her most adored person, a loyal Ha Yichan finally listening to his friend/future son, a vulnerable Ha Yichan recording his thanks for Ha Eungyeol...

...

... just to have an unconscious and injured Ha Yichan in the final minute of the episode hugged by a destroyed Eungyeol 💔

just realised that ha eunho literally has the exact same personality as yichan (but chungah's face!) and that's why eungyeol's dynamic with the 18 year old version of his dad is the SAME as his dynamic with eunho

[jameswyerford]

cheongah could have chosen to be jealous and petty over the fact that yichan doesnt like her back (yet) and instead she accepted it and decided to put her feelings aside in the name of friendship like the thoughtful and mature person that she is

i personally think she deserves the entire world but thats just me

like daughter;

“Dad, this is my girlfriend, On Eunyu,” Ha Eun-gyeol introduced using signed language. But his father, Ha Yi-chan, remained silent and stared at his girlfriend for a good minute. Realizing he wasn’t saying anything, he signed with his hands back, “She’s . . . ” he stopped for a moment as he thought of the right words and decided, “beautiful.”

On Eun-yu understood what older Ha Yi-chan gestured. But Ha Eun-gyeol still translated it for her, repeating what his dad said. Ha Eun-gyeol thought his dad still kept the secret of the reason why the band Watermelon Sugar was made, and in this timeline he still told the story that the only woman he ever loved was Chung-ah, his mom. Liar!

However, On Eunyu was amused to see this old Ha Yi-chan, knowing that a month ago she had hung out with his younger frisky version, and now he looked respectable and proper. Older and matured. And Yoon Chung-ah was as pretty, rather, she grew even more beautiful and sophisticated. She caught a glimpse of her during the launch of their company’s new guitar, Goliath.

“May I know who your mother is?” Yi-chan signed language.

Before Ha Eun-gyeol could translate it for her, Eunyu signed language back in reply, surprising her boyfriend’s dad. “Se-kyung. Do you know her?”

The two teenagers awaited Yi-chan’s answer and then he said honestly, “Yes. My wife and your mom went to the same school. And your mom was popular in her youth so I pretty much know her.”

Pretty much e, Eun-gyeol thought and it reminded him of his jealousy learning his dad’s big crush on Se-kyung instead of mom. Playing safe, are we? He hid a smile.

Eunyu nodded. But guilt suddenly filled her remembering how she attempted to seduce Yi-chan, taking him away from Chung-ah for her selfish desire to stop herself from being born to existence, yet on the other hand if she hadn’t done that, Eun-gyeol wouldn’t notice—come to her.

“I hope my son is treating you well,” Yi-chan continued.

And the two lovers smiled at each other and then with a glint of new energy, Eunyu replied, “I think I’m the luckiest girl alive having your very handsome, kind, sweet, responsible and loving and really cool son.”

“Now, now you’re making me blush,” Eun-gyeol smiled shyly and Eunyu thought he looked cute.

“Of course!” Yi-chan’s energy doubled as he explained the words with his hands vigorously, “where else could he get it, if not from me?” A proud look on his face. Then he winked at his son, “Right, son?”

Eunyu was amused. Yi-chan was still the same old or should she say, the young Yi-chan she knew.

Eun-gyeol matched his dad’s vigor. “Of course! I have the best dad!”

Yi-chan smiled, delighted with his son. He knew his son was in a good place with her, because it’s rare to find a woman like Eunyu who could communicate with them well with respect and understanding. However, looking at Eunyu, he could only shake his head. Eunyu’s resemblance with her mom was truly spot on. He might have mistaken her as young Se-kyung traveling to the future if his son didn’t introduce her sooner. Then he looked at Eun-gyeol with pride.

My son surely got guts.

a/n: so this is my first little twinkling watermelon fic i had written few months ago after watching the show. i had the interest to tackle how adult!ha yi-chan would react seeing on eunyu as his son's girlfriend, as we all know how obsessed yi-chan was towards sekyong back in 1995. aha.

Twinkling Watermelon, but that soulmate AU where their first words to you are printed on your wrist

Eun Yoo has “Choi Se Kyeong?” and she spends years terrified that her soulmate is a middle-aged man who confuses her with her mother

Eun Gyeol has “no, I’m not” except that he thinks Eun Yoo is Se Kyeong, and the first thing Se Kyeong said to him was “do you like my daughter, too?” so he doesn’t even consider the idea that he’s met his soulmate

Yichan doesn’t have anything written down and he spends years terrified that he doesn’t have a soulmate at all

Cheong-ah has “OWAAAAAGGGHHHHHH” and when she meets Yichan, she knows immediately it’s him

[stories-that-feed-our-souls]

So many episodes thinking that Yi Chan is a cute but dense boy for not realizing his feelings for Cheong Ah when, in fact, this cute but not so dense boy was preparing to serenate using sign language all along 😭💖

[spaceymarz]

EPISODE 8 IS ENTIRELY TOO CUTE 😭😭😭

if i had a son who loves his parents the way Ha Eungyeol loves his, nothing in the world would be able to dim my spirits 😖 watching him look after Yichan this whole time was adoreable, but there's something SO touching about the way he takes care of Chungah.

when he cried for her, my heart felt like it was getting crushed. imagine meeting your mom as a teenager, helpless in such a shitty situation? how could they not even let her speak sign language? he's already physically protected her from her "mom", fought bodyguards for her, become her sign language tutor, and become her friend. even way before he ever met Chungah's 18 year old self, he's been trying to keep Yichan away from his teenage crush until he can meet Chungah, so she will be his first love. he's been protecting her feelings this entire time 🥺

and the ROMANCE 🤧 Yichan is slowly going to Chungah, who is already so far gone she's drawing his name inside a heart in the fog on her bedroom window, and Eungyeol and Sekyung-idal slowly going to each other 🥺🥺 Eungyeul's confession at the end that was partly because of his feelings for Sekyung-idal, and partly because of his determination to pair Yichan with Chungah 😖 these guys deserve everything good in life
