In my head!canon, Yoon Hee has only ever used yellow umbrellas since the day she met In Ha.
I laughed out loud when Jun said the whole "If you go with him and abandon me again, we're over" line. WHAT. It just shows how completely invested he is in his own mind that he would think of them in those terms when reality doesn't reflect that at all. I remain totally enchanted by how completely gone Jun is over Hana and how completely unprepared he is for dealing with that. He just does not know what to do with himself, and it is the most delightful thing ever. But you're absolutely right when you think about why that is, it becomes heartbreaking: his home life must have been terrible. I like that we're getting enough information to know how terrible said home life was, without resorting to flashbacks or heavy-handed dialogue. We can fill in the blanks.
Hye Jung kind of fascinates me. I feel like her 70s personality had a lot of flaws, yes, but they were the kind that mostly come from immaturity. If she'd married someone who loved her back or maybe stayed single but focused on her career (which she seems to be very good at), she might have grown past them and become a really good person. But the choice she makes to hold onto In Ha has festered and twisted those flaws into something ugly. I feel sorry for her even when I know how much of what she's going through is her own fault--though I will say that In Ha chose to marry her, too, so it's not like she was the only one making bad decisions. Bad decisions everywhere, really.
The world in his head has no connection to reality as far as Hana is concerned. To her, they are just discussing a quick part-time job but for him...what? :)
HJ and IH must have had a horrible marriage - a man unwilling to engage and a needy unscrupulous woman are a horrible combination. I just bet she used Jun in her attempts to get IH in line. Fun times.
I agree, In Ha is partially to blame. But yes, I feel bad for her potential even if she grew into a horrible person.
