  1. Watching this show is like entering a room filled with weed smokers and you're suddenly getting high just from inhaling the air.

    So many action scenes too. Wasted two hours of my time understanding the plot and I'm not even complaining.

    :pandawhat:

    Consider me entertained.

    We have an unexpected twist (the recorded convo) to settle the big mystery, although with a loophole, like how was HW not be punished for hiding the evidence of murder.


    He wasn't punished because the murder of DJ happened 20 years ago. The statute of limitations for murder cases, at the time, was 15 years. HW and SJ cannot be held accountable - even with the confession with the recording submitted as evidence.

    Prior 2007, it was 15 years.
    Past 2007, it is now 25 years.

    DJ died in 2004.

  3. I actually like the ending. I know that most people won't like it. It's definitely different from the novel / webtoon. It's definitely more grounded.
     

    Spoiler

    The opening of the episode was confusing and it plays into the parallel of having a bedridden patient being inconscious for an extended period of time. A lot of inconscious people would tell you time feels warped - hence the possibility of having the feeling of living a lifetime only to wake up some days later.

    Just like someone who goes under anesthesia for surgery and wakes up 5 hours later but time felt extremely disproportionate for the patient.

    It feels the writer respected the common rules of time travel and the message from present pop culture is that death / past cannot be cheated. Everything Do Jun did until his time of death already happened. It's not a different universe. It's the same timeline.

    Everyone thought HW as DJ cheated in the past - but in the finale, it confirms the events have already taken place. HW was deeply traumatized because he was the accomplice behind his own future death as DJ - the ressemblance of DJ's face to HW, the whole cover-up and trauma, that's why the main protagonist couldn't remember the details of the accident. It's guilt for the concept of repentance - the idea of sacrificing himself to avenge his reborn self.

    There's an interesting aspect that common pop culture on time travel - one of the common rules is that the future self cannot directly meet the past self - Affecting the past self means the future self won't be able to exist. DJ's accident was meant to happen no matter what.

    I didn't mind the romance too much - after all, it's a Korean drama. It's an optional addition. Prosecutor Seo Min Young - we understand why she's nicknamed as the Grim Reaper of Soonyang. Her personal goal was to avenge her fiance's death. The romance was definitely not the best part of the show. Although, I didn't mind. There's definitely a lack of chemistry between the two leads. Despite that, I felt the writer wanted DJ's family & friends to mourn their way respectfully - even for the romance - left with the open possibility for the two lovers to meet again if they are meant for each other (should prosecutor Seo figures out the pieces left by HW as DJ).

    So kudos to the show's writer to not cave in to the fanbase and sticking to the plan of delivering her own conclusion of this story.

    Also the credit card crisis/issue... why are the people blaming the business? Because they were misled to get more card to pay off another and their debt just grew? Shouldn't this be the responsibility of the individual?


    I find it quite funny that there is a parallel going on with the United States.

    It's rare to see you post @Soju.

     

    Were there any dramas in recent years that you think are as good as this? Imma check those out lol.

     


    I've been trying to maintain several communities while working full time.

    I haven't watched a lot of kdramas as of late. The latest I've binged was the remake of Money Heist (La Casa del Papel).

    I love the intrigue behind Reborn Rich, it represents my world in an extreme form - plenty of corporate shenanigans. The pacing is slow, mysterious, and cerebral.

  8. Hello, Havenites!

     

    As we went along building our website, we have forbidden the use of embed Instagram content since our launch due to two  lawsuits in the United States in regards of sharing original copyrighted content - putting a risk to members of our community.

     

    As of today, we are now authorizing the sharing of embed content from Instagram on JangHaven.

     

    On September 21st 2020, Facebook has updated their terms of agreement in the use of their products including Instagram. They have also announced publicly and released a tool of Rights Manager empowering content creators to protect their pictures, including those embedded somewhere else.

     

    This creates a precedence for content creators. They must be aware that such feature exists. If they are sharing their pictures through their social media platforms without applying this security measure, they are held personally responsible for their own sharing settings.

     

    For more info: https://about.fb.com/news/2020/09/helping-creators-and-publishers-manage-their-intellectual-property/

     

    Thank you for your patience and understanding!

  10. Welcome to the official Halloween Event 2020!


    tumblr_300a5ae2b02bf8b7cf4e33142a39250e_d53fdbbc_400.gif

     

    All hands for a Trick-Or-Treat community mission!

     

    The objective of this mighty adventure is:

     

    • Candy.png[Find 30 lost candies]

     

    This is a community-based event!

     

    Every 6 lost candies found will unlock a milestone for the entire community to be granted a new Emoji Collection.

     

    Where do we find those 30 lost candies?

     

    Candies are dropped on the entire JangHaven website. This includes any pages in the forums, clubs, compendium & more. The only exempted locations are: member profiles, spoilers, this event thread (duh) & staff sections.

     

    When does the event end?

     

    The event will run until October 31st, 2020.

     

    How do I submit my candies?

     

    Please send your submissions to @Soju in one private message. Make sure to edit your message if you find more candies! A valid candy submission is a URL link pointing to where the candy was found.

     

    Who is eligible for this event?

     

    Anyone who is registered to JangHaven is eligible for participating!

     

    Can I share my findings with any participant?

     

    Of course! Any retrieved candy from the hunt will bring more emojis to this community. However, you are accepting the risks of decreasing your chances to earn exclusive Halloween event medals!

     

    Will emoji collections from this event unlocked permanently?

     

    They will be staying with the community for a while. We wish to keep offering cosmetic content to our forums. The idea of retiring old emoji collections in the future is not excluded.
