I saw this on Twitter and, basically, the theory is that Dong Kyung is already dead. Ji Na writes based off people she knows so she is writing the story of DK, her best friend who died, and a love affair with this tragic Doom character.

What bothers me about this is there are some solid clues for this being the case: - the inception reference - Ji Na is getting the love triangle like a main character - there's already talk of stories inside stories - the creator goddess keeps talking about resets, just like Ji Na - the creator doesn't know what she planted, Ji Na doesn't know what she's writing with Joo Ik, it's a new story

A part of me would love to see that layer of meta.

Congratulations to the Cast and Crew of It's Okay to Not Be Okay/Psycho but It's Okay!!

This K-Drama has been nominated for an International Emmy for the category under TV Movie/Mini-Series

The word dandelion was baffling to me as a non-native speaker ever since KSH and SYJ used this as a metaphor for their characters (Munyeong and Gangtae) during their press conference. I tried looking for dandelion references in the show, but they aren't even there!

Through some little research (prompted by an episode of Running Man), I think I finally understand what "dandelion" (민들레; mindeulle) means.

It's from a Korean expression!

Passionate Dandelion, or 일편단심 민들레, refers to a single-hearted devotion; people who are madly in love and; those who refuse to give up their love.

So, our lead actors were talking about how their characters are passionate dandelions! How sweet is that?

Why dandelions?

Because dandelions are incredibly resilient as it is difficult to pull out. And if you ever succeed, it still doesn't get rid all of it because its roots are deep in the ground.

It's a really good expression for Gangtae's devotion to Sangtae, and the Mm couple's dynamic.
