finished watching you quiz on PEB's interview... what a wonderful family she has! what great parents she has; they have raised their child with good values and principles and am wondering what kind of grandchildren they would have! her older brother also takes very good care of her and they are very close to each other! and, the brother wants to stay quiet and only his close friends know about his sister as being PEB! the whole family works together to protect PEB and themselves from being polluted by the entertainment industry! i know PEB has brought up many times her discussion with pd Yoo and writer Moon about her hesitation and concerns. for some reasons this time around, i got a much clearer picture about this discussion and its corresponding outcome. she had so much concerns about the controversy of youngwoo's story and pd Yoo and writer Moon promised her that they would take care of everything and asked her to trust them. i believe per pd Yoo's instruction, astory simply didnt hype up any romantic chemistry between the leads, and pd Yoo was with them in most bts. it's wonderful that the drama was trying give hope and encouragement to the autism community; but for an autistic who had never got to have romantic relationship or who had a bad experience, then the drama might be sending out misleading hope, and certainly wouldnt want the leads to gain popularity through this line of the drama. even with a few bts about them together, PEB and KTO showed that they are proven professionals in their fields. they get along well with everyone in this project. and they both have had many compliments for each other, so there is genuine friendship between them and with other actors/actresses! i re-watched the drama and kept tracking the screen time of KTO. it was as bad as most people thought. his presence took up the first 4 episodes and he had only a very short screen time in one ep and he was in every ep through the drama. probably because of the expected loveline that viewers wanted to see more of him with PEB together. anyway, his acting skills has been finally being recognized and he has worked hard to solidify his popularity before going for his enlistment. cant wait to see his next project upon his return from military enlistment.

PEB has to have some interests in KTO to be shy; otherwise, no need to be shy!!!

i would get it if i understand korean! no i didnt get it! would love to hear from you dropping some crumbs about their interaction!

yes, it's good that moc got him a lot of magazines pictorials, cf's, promo after eaw to build up his fanbase in such a short period of time! and i would say, even though ena and astory didnt give us much bts about taebin couple due to sensitive subject of the drama, they did serve him well and promote him through the more serious (instead of fun) bts about his acting skills and his professionalism - his constant discussion with PEB and pd Yoo, his internet research at filming site... so now viewers and production companies know he is a good actor not only with amazing acting skills but also with good work ethics! he said he got some good offers after eaw and am sure he'll get some when he is back! he just really needs to discern a good project! think his previous one focused more on SKJ so the others 4 always did supporting roles! to me KTO has the best acting skill among surprise, and it was a disappointment that his agecny couldnt land him major roles after winning kbs award. not a big fan of SKJ as personally find his acting quite bland! i hope that will not be the case when he returns. thats why i think GM is smart to go to saram; it's not healthy for them to compete similar roles or projects!

dont know if it was true... remember reading somewhere that PEB's manager didnt like tka ml, so he cropped him out of PEB's pic even though he was within her perimeter! thought he usually focused on filming PEB, so am surprised to see KTO was included in PEB's pics or clips this time! another scene of their amazing team work!

Welcome @innrukia! cant say i am a big fan of KTO, but do appreciate good actors/actresses with strong work ethics, and KTO is one of them! he never touched his co-workers inappropriately, or have had too much skinship! he even expressed gratitude toward PEB's manager when they were reviewing the meltdown scene. a tweet about a senior actor praising me for being a very respectful actor. he knows and respects boundaries! i remember i didnt appreciate an inappropriate touch by PEB's ml in tka at the sunset kiss scene. well PEB didnt complain about it, why did i get upset about it? it was at this point i was quite turned off by that ml. if KTO's acting is bad as lee junho, then there wouldnt be a heart-fluttering love story between youngwoo and junho, and wouldnt have those pure and yet passionate kiss scenes that capture attention of viewers in this world! KTO was hardworking and smart, never saw an actor did an internet research at the filming site to deal with a scene. no matter how great PEB's acting is, she cannot do everything by herself! takes two hands to clap! was quite surprised that KTO didnt land on any ml roles after winning the kbs best supporting actor through nokdu. his acting was so versatile in that drama, but didnt get any attention from good producers! hope some good agencies would reach out to him to advance his career after his return from military service! gongmin has made a good decision to go to saram with the help of LHN! it's not working when four guys with similar age in the same agency are competing for similar roles or projects!

amazing acting skills and chemistry! KTO is the best ml for PEB, so far! am gonna use google translator to understand the scriptbook!

lost the tweet that posted this vid with a lovely song! the song chosen is so perfectly matched their love story!

@Kismet_06200904thanks for the pics! looking at the angle of PEB's head and KTO's shoulder, KTO definitely held PEB tightly in his arms! and looking at the atmosphere, i believe that either astory or ena was holding back in releasing any of their pics taken together!

yes please get help from @abs-oluteM, couldnt see any pics you attached; links are not accessible! it would be nice to have the filming schedule of the drama, so can keep track of the development of their friendship! this is so beautiful! from the other pics, thought they were not close sitting together, but they were actually very close! and PEB followed KTO doing the wyw movement!

yes long shot, close-up, wide angle for the one outside youngwoo's house!

ever since that weibo video has surfaced, many tweeters have been working hard to redo the kiss scenes!

bts after the 1st kiss... the way they looked at each other - shy and satisfying??? thanks @Kismet_06200904couldnt watch the first 2 links and gave up; decided to try the weibo links and it worked! wow! no wonder KTO said in his interview that they were really immersed in the love and kiss scenes! these are definitely the most beautiful and natural kiss scenes PEB have had so far probably due to the nature of the characters! saw a tweet showing kiss scenes about her last 2 projects and looked a mouth-to-mouth resuscitation! excuse me for being her very honest fan!!!

@Kismet_06200904hahaha, "video unavailable in your country"1

@JenLwould you pls translate this vid? it sounds something funny! thanks...

a sweet compilation of their times together! think this is his latest interview, more info about the character! am glad that he has gained more confidence and is more focused after this project! https://www.sportsq.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=443507

oh really??? can sneak in to watch naver vid for the initial 1st streaming, but after that cant watch in north america due to this "regional restriction"!

@JenLthere was always different versions of bts; one is from astory, and the other is from ena! i did remember some vids have ena logo on it!

clips of PEB following whatever KTO did! sweet...

checked his ig; looks like he started wearing around his bday! found this funny vid

more tweets about the ring on his ring finger!!!

same here, have no problems with them talking about their friendship/conversation AFTER the drama finished airing! if i assume a strong friendship between rowoon and PEB, then am very disappointed with this kind of talk when the drama was aired. was he trying to stir up shippers war or cause distraction for viewers to watch the drama? it was not helping PEB at all! and she went beyond to list 5 charms about him in swoon vid, and the charms are not the typical hardworking, friendly, etc. like she actually thought in details right on the spot to list his charms. i believe this hanbada team is very tight and supportive to PEB. they've come up with the mutual respect about getting approval from each other for posting pictures. they are very careful to avoid criticisms about whatever they say and do that are related to the wyw in particular. as @JenLit's easier for KTO to do cf's and other stuff but he is still careful not to go into too much loveline with wyw. viewers has named him nation's husband or disappointed man; he didnt call himself that! read a tweet about KTO changing his response about s2 after PEB's subtle decline to do s2!
