Lovely Runner: The way this drama irks my soul. The writing for Sol is so bad, WTF was episode 13. I can’t even feel bad for her because she brings it on herself. SIGH. I will finish it though.

    That last scene made me flip an imaginary table! So they NEVER met while living literally opposite to each other and going to the same school? Who is meant to save Sol from the crazy cabby the first time? Ugh

      I’m just so annoyed. Sigh, episode 14 literally made me want to scream. It took Noble Idiocy to a peak I didn’t actually know possible. I just, SMH, SIGH.

      did you not watch the episode?
      they didn’t live next door.. she moved out of that neighbourhood

      and they were never in the same school to begin with.. she was in girl’s school and him in boys school

        Weren’t they wearing the same school uniform, catching the same bus and attend school in the exact same premise? Are we watching the same drama?

          No they were always in separate schools. She kept on hovering about his school. Remember way back in episode 1-2 when the boys’ school teacher caught her and made her kneel and raise her arms as punishment.

          Looks like we are not watching the same drama…
          go back and watch the episodes..

          schools are next to each other.. they are not the same… and she also knows that SJ leaves early morning that’s why she never crossed paths with him on the bus stop in original timeline.. SJ had to adjust his time consciously to be able to meet up Sol at the best stop in first time travel timeline

            But she was still friends with Tae Sung who went to the same school as him. OMG, I am just realizing how much worse this makes it because she had to work hard to still be friends with Tae Sung and avoid SJ who lived right across the way from her. SIGH.

      I didn’t like the reset at all. But with the reset, sol didn’t need saving. She never crossed paths with the killer in the new past…however, she’ll meet him in the new present.

    I know we were supposed to feel sad in episode 14, but the thing is that she has been crying for 14 episodes straight. It feels like she’s living the most unhealthy love story ever all by herself. Over and over again.

      agree.. and it is not even anyone else’s fault.. not even killers.. she literally can stop this all by herself.. no sympathies for her

        Exactly, like even the serial killer she could have stopped, if she stopped to think before doing anything, literally anything. I can’t root for them as a couple because Sun Jae deserves better. She completely removes his agency and does everything by herself and still mess up. I just don’t understand.

          She met TS the same way… when he was fighting those guys over cigarette pack .. so that was outside of the school… and then knowing TS, you can imagine he would have followed her more and TS – SJ were never close

          But, yes, this does mean that despite everything.. Sol still made it a point to go meet TS and actively intervene so that his life is on track…

      I didn’t feel sad because sol’s actions annoyed me. I was not able to fully symphatize with her. In ep 13, she chose to be left behind at the countryside instead of sticking close to the guys…she contributed to 20 yo sunjae death because had she kept close with the guys, went straight home, the killer wouldn’t have met sunjae.

      After the reset, she returns to the present…and she still chose to push sunjae away, not even trying to find him or befriend him in the new present. Stick close to him and start to tell him about the killer. Because she’s in the present, she won’t be frozen when she tells him speculative theories about a killer lurking and potentially killing them or him or her. At least make him aware of potential danger. If Sunjae dies again in ep 15, Sol will regret not doing anything earlier.

        i think what has happened is…

        all this while, the narrative built.. and what sol believes is that Killer is HER destiny and since SJ is involved with her, he gets involved with the killer…

        BUT, what this time travel and new timeline is out to show is that the Killer is THEIR destiny… he appears only when SJ and Sol have already interacted…

        So Sol needs to get over this self blaming mentality

        *******************************
        But none of this makes me tolerable of Sol.. she is still annoying.. very very annoying.. poor writing, trying to fit too many time travels and illogical narratives
