Dear Beanies: I’m scared. This wasn’t what I thought I’d be signing up for. #memoriesofthealhambra #ep4
How am I supposed to sleep now?! *shiver* On another note though… Can’t Jin-woo just log out?!
He seemed surprisingly calm when faced with the attack. I’d have thought that now that he knew it seemed possible to be actually hurt and killed in the game, he’d be more panicky >.< Instead of trying to log out, he went to call others to see if they could troubleshoot the moment! T.T
I wish there was a way to know if he had his lenses on or not. Or maybe yeah, actual and virtual reality do clash now that he didn’t even need lenses on?
At some point in Ep 3 the blood stains disappeared and appeared randomly. I always thought ‘if they are hurt its a game’, but now am not so sure anymore.
Did he logout or did he forget? Or is he not able to logout?
The fact that the ‘dead’ user in the game came back alive the second time was too creepy. But the body disappearing the second time made no sense.
And then he is back in the hotel. is it a bug? a glitch? or is death programmed differently in the game that no one understands death in the AR world?
I know right. I wonder if it’s supposed to be a character trait – Jin-woo generally seems rather unfazed by people and things. He remains calm when receiving a lashing by Hee-Joo, his ex-wife… It feels like his entire life at this point is focused on revenge and hurting his once best friend. So I wonder if that sole focus, not to mention his captivation with the world of AR in general, makes him a bit callous and disregarding of things. He seemed so focused on trying to understand the game, to the point of not being worried enough that he could be hurt by a supposedly dead character who turned up again… so much so that we didn’t even see him try to log out… 😢
I didn’t see him as calm as much as stunned by the eruption of emotions from his ex-wife. Certainly, he was hurt by her leaving him, so he does have emotions – but he doesn’t share them easily.
To me he seemed to be completely puzzled, trying to figure out what happened. The scene in the 6th floor apt changes everything. Now we don’t know what is real or not – and neither do the people in the show.
Well done writers!

You are right. I think there is no exit.

I wondered the same thing – why didn’t he just log out of the game? They are really playing this out so well!!!
