So basically The sister's ML (Mirim) starts an internship in Brother-in-law (Hyung) company and he falls even harder for her, while she starts getting uneasy because she also starts liking him(since she is 'dating' someone or close to) ... Then Hyung confesses and asks her out but she rejects him because she is seeing Kang Sejun Sunbae (Aka the true stalker,
shocking
biggest scumbag, and important to the ending
)
After this and the multiple failures to avoid Hyung and Mirim to meet, they decide to finally change their tactics and in the dairy, some more info about the staler makes them start investing the first suspect Gujong, the 'molester' / clingy guy from the first few chaps. Further, into this Gujong, they come to the conclusion that though he is not a good guy, he is too dumb to stalk Mirim to that extend so its someone else. At this point, Hyung has a car accident with a red car, like in the first timeline, where the newlywed's couple have an accident with a red car, and guess who owns a red car? yes Sunbae (Hyung is not badly hurt, it's ok
)
So after going throw all these details Da-ae and Han-Eol actually (finally, tho I didn't understand all the process ) conclude that Sunbae was in fact the true antagonist all along. during this time Mirim also founds shocking pieces of evidence (stalking pictures and other stuff) on Sunbae goods that prove that he was his stalker
shocking
. Since Da-ae and Han-Eol already know Sunbae true character, they worry to go rescue Mirim and get Hyung to help them. Da-ae receives a call from her sister but its Sunbae and tells her that he is taking her somewhere and ask for the 3 of them to meet them there. He then adds the truly mindblowing sentence: "Hyung (Han-Eol's brother) already had your sister once, why can't I have her in this life?".
Da-ae and Haneol realize that they weren't the only time travelers, that Sunbae tried to get Mirim before and failed so he killed them, and now he is trying to do it again.
So after meeting, Sunbae threatens to kill Mirim and everyone there because he thinks this will break the time travel thing and make him revive to the original timeline, but chad-Hyung somehow gets an upper hand and saves the day and Mirim. Sunbae starts running from them but Da-ae doesn't let him escape, goes ahead, only to get outplayed and pinned down, close to gets slashed on the face (I guess its a big deal since on the story, they multiple time are worried about her body because she would be a model and with a big scar on the face, that would be no good ). Han-Eol comes last second and saves her, only to get slashed instead. Then Police arrive, Sunbae runs off and jumps off the rooftop since he failed everything, and also he is just a waste of oxygen. After all, this is finally over, and everyone would be happy ??? Da-ae faints, and wakes up in the hospital, with her mother and sister close to her, BUT Da-ae is older (so is everyone else ofc). So then she asks what happened, where is Han-Eol, and brother in law? Mirim is confused, saying she is not married ............... shock, and then Han-Eol comes in, to which Mirim tells Da-ae, that his husband his here... But her reaction is like "How can I be married to this bastard ?" Han-Eol gets the sad face and asks her what are her last memories, she says that what she last remembers is them fighting in front of a truck and basically she forgot
everything that happened during the time travel. --- At this I was 100% depressed about this turning of events, wh would she have amnesia ? or why did she lose her memories?
We see Hyung confessing that he liked Mirim for 8 years although at that time she already had a boyfriend. Mirim responded saying why is he saying it after all this time and then said they should just consider each other as in-laws
-- Basically the author is trying to put a role reversal into the two main couples, I hate this. Then, Hyung asked if Mirim is currently dating? Mirim said no. Hyung asked if she likes someone at present, asking her on a date, showing he still has feelings for her until now! Then they hugged!!
A year later, they got married. Within that one year, Da-ae’s memories are slowly recovering, for example, she remembers he 'deep' kiss they had in the school infirmary, the one who was teased during such a long time, was finally showed, she saw it during a dream. She wakes up and goes for Han-Eol because even if they are married since she doesn't remember most of it yet, they sleep apart. She talks to him thy gets close and then they go into the bedroom, (for the bride's skinship
) But she still didn’t remember her own wedding, (sad) they tease that they will do a remind-wedding next year, but we never actually see it...
Basically all the wholesome/fluff moments that happened with Mirim and Hyung are erased, and all the moments with Da-ae are forgotten for her... This ending is nonsense
It should have been the reverse, Mirim and Hyung are already married and Da-ae with Han-Eol actually confessing to each other, in the present while remembering all those time travel exp. ... Don't just throw away 8 years of dating like its nothing, and that twice. I'm tilted, shocked, and sad. why Korean manhwas have always such a bad development/ ending? I liked the third time traveler thing but that amnesia, really? then the couple situation shift ?? for real?
At least both couples are together I guess? but bittersweet...
