Hong Du Shik - Tumblr Posts
I’ve heard complaints about how criticizing the reveal trivializes Du Shik’s trauma. Tbh I see that but my frustration doesn’t lie in Du Shik blaming himself. Survivor’s guilt is a very real and upsetting issue. I just don’t get this universal agreement that Du Shik was responsible for all of it even if they were truly just grieving families looking for somebody to blame
as new eps of hometown cha come out we can see why hyejin acts the way she does and says the things she says. the only reason she craves “materialistic” things is because she was poor, when you’re poor getting things like new shoes or clothes isn’t something that happens very often (at least not without worrying about tre price and debating the purchase) hyejin worked this hard fo finally have the freedom to not worry about money so i think she deserves to buy all the things she wants. also when she told dusik they weren’t on the same level or Whatever she said, being poor literally leaves a lasting impression on you hyejin literally can’t understand why dusik would work so hard to end up doing odd jobs like this. hyejin thinks being successful is having power & money because that’s what she was told/saw as a kid. anyway i’m just rambling i have so many thoughts about them.
ep 9 spoilers //
i really love how dusik told hyejin’s dad that they weren’t actually dating it feels like in kdramas they usually just leave that misunderstanding until everything blows up or they end up together
ALSOcan we talk about how dusik and hyejin even before confessing we’re super tactile w each other like they weren’t hesitant to touch each other esp when they were alone. like when they were “arguing” in the kitchen when dusik brought ji pd to his house and then again when they hugged after hyejin thought someone was following her. it just makes me so Ugh and the frequency of the touches increased as they started liking each other more and more. in ep 10 they touched so much and didn’t even think much of it.
wait back to the start of ep 10 dusik knew the passcode to hyejins house so that means that she didn’t change it after she moved in so it’s still his birthday
y’all this ep was so Found Family IM CRYING the way they pranked dusik and hyejin so bad 😭
sikhye are down bad for each other
ALSO the way hyejin and dusik have the same house passcode bc it’s just dusik’s bday that’s so cute
i literally go to engineering school where is my hong dusik please god i’m begging
i finally watching ep 12 and i have so many thoughts
Hong Dusik is such a man! he’s like i love my girlboss gf!!! him saying it’s your hard earned money and ofc you can spend it on an expensive gift to yourself. don’t worry about me cause i don’t care if you spend money like this and i shouldn’t care.
THEN WHEN HE became jealous and childish he felt BAD and apologized for it instead of sulking. this drama feels like a breath of fresh air every time i think something cliche is going to happen it doesn’t. mostly everything in this drama has been taken care of in a respectful and communicative way.
that episode made me CRYYYY everyone missing gamri :( SHE SHOULDVE SEEN DUSIK AND HYEJIN GETTING MARRIED !!!!!
