Also re: Signal – I’m really hoping they’ll find a way to save Jae Han so he’ll be alive in 2015 (and our 2015, y’know, the one where Ji Sung and Lee Bo Young are married with a baby and not just rumored to be dating), but knowing how the unspoken Laws of the Universe work on this show, it’ll mean killing off Hae Young because you can’t save a life without sacrificing another, apparently.
Oh my lord, why did I not realize this before. I know it wasn’t true about Jisung and wife dating that time. Or even the Misaeng cast love triangle. I just thought Hae young in Episode 1 was making it all up to get a money/job or to create rumours. I didn’t take him seriously that time. Now, I see it. They are on a different Universe to begin with.
I thought we are in the same Universe as they are all along. And that they are changing things as they solve cases. My gosh, that’s why I haven’t been enjoying this drama. Reading this post and watching Episode 7 changed that. I guess tumblr is the new walkie talkie. Are you Jae Han?
I’m not 100% sure that’s exactly what the show is going for – it’s pretty much my take on it. However, because they made it clear in this show as a fact that Lee Bo Young was single (that’s why he got in trouble – she reported a man going through her garbage, which, as a single woman, seems extra scary), so obviously it’s a different world than ours. Considering what a major celebrity couple they are in the actual real world, it’s a convenient way of quickly letting the audience know that the show’s “present day” is not the same as our “present day.”
Knowing that this show is all about trying to change the past to effect the future, I’ve been assuming we’ll get a little cute throwback in the final episode of a news report of their wedding/baby/etc. just to show that yeah, the future has changed since ep 1, and it is our future.
