I love the details in the nightmare scene. The set up is very similar to Mo-yeong’s dreams in the previous episodes where Kang-tae comes to hug and comfort her. Even their clothing is very similar to her fantasy.

But it’s also so different from her fantasy:

The widening of his eyes when he realised she’s full on sobbing in terror. The way her sobs turn raw, her screams guttural and terrified. The way she screams at him to run away and get lost while clutching his clothes in desperation. And the way he realises and holds her close. His hands cradling hers mirroring the scene where he tells her zombie kids also need warmth. The way he tells her he’s not going away and means it.

I just die I’ve watched that scene so many times.

    I’ve also replayed it. You’re not alone.

    i cried again reading your thoughts. That was so beautifully filmed. Moonyoung grabbing on to him like her life depended on it as she screams for him to run and save himself. Gangtae understands what she really meant and held her. Aw man. Thank goodness for the bloopers.
