The fact that Hyejin was going through so much while in college and the only thing that gave her a reprieve, a sort of shade like a tree on a hot day was Director Ji.

The fact that they both liked each other at the time and yet missed each other and that Hyejin couldn't tell him she liked him bc he'd seen her at her worst, is one of the most real things ever.

The part where he said he was honoured to love someone who worked hard and never lost herself is so beautiful bc he noticed something that, to other people, was just Hyejin wearing the same pair of shoes everyday. To him, the person wearing the same pair of shoes was someone who was brave, someone who did not ever want to lose herself. The ability to notice that in someone is breathtaking.

Hometown cha cha cha is episode after episode after episode of the reminder that one act of kindness can make a person's entire experience better.

Jagiya.

It also means oneself. It feels like I’ve become you and you’ve become me in some way.

To me, Hye Jin and Du Sik are proof that healthy and freeing love exists. They are the kind of love I hope to have. A love that supports, a love that stays, a love that heals, a love that warms me to the bones. A love that will never let me feel lonely.

“I’d love it if our shoes were always side by side at the door together.”
