Awww, soompi seems solidly Seok Hyun-hatred zone and rooting for the other guy to end up with Yeol Mae zone. :( While I actually dropped INR2012 until I find out who she does end up with, and if it's not SH, I am not picking it back up. Sure, I wanted him to suffer a bit for being stand-offish about commitment, but I didn't want him to lose the girl!
Let's face it, in RL, if I were her friend, I'd tell her to go for Ji Hoon - he's loaded, calm, demonstrative, and has a pet plant. He doesn't seem to clean her clock in bed the way SH does or have the same long history with her, but the former can be worked on and the latter would happen if he stuck around. OTOH, Seok Hyun is emotionally fucked up and probably has the same genetic disease that killed his sister - not only can he die young, any kids he has can also get it. So I get where soompi fangirls are coming from, I do. I get that 'but he looooooves her! and cried! and is super-hot and has wonderful chemistry with her where JH does not and I love fucked-up heroes and I am obsessed with Lee Jin Wook who plays him and childhood loves who stayed together until recently are awesome' is not a legit answer. BUT!!!! Heart wants what heart wants and my heart wants those two together! Dramas are NOT real life and in dramas I always pick the most conflict-driven option. After all, in real life, if a medieval warlord dragged someone back in time with him, the reaction would be unmitigated horror and possibly a time-traveling posse with a shotgun or dozen. In dramaworld, that same scenario means my undying excitement and unmitigated glee (see Faith).
FWIW, I think Yeol Mae will end up with Ji Hoon. Good for her, but I don't want to watch...
