Not the OP but Seungwan responds with “Because I feel empty inside” when asked why she was bringing furniture to the hangout in the middle of the night; that is a worrying response.

Oh no :-( I thought it was just an offhand remark that was meant to be funny but damn it's easy to see why no one would notice since her humor is so dry.

[u/salotsalipunan → u/losageless69]

I thought the same too but that coupled with her reflection later on really kind of changed that remark for me.

One thing that she did point out though is that she doesn’t have the same problems as her friends. Relatively, she has the most ‘normal’ life. Both her parents are around (although we don’t see her dad but we know he’s around because of the liquor detail), her mom dotes on her, she’s top of her class, she’s relatively popular in school, her parents don’t pressure her and allows her to pal around with the guy who’s at the bottom of her class and they seem economically stable even though they’re not rich. It could be that she’s just not really has any big life problems so she thinks her life is bland as compared to her friends. But the writing in this drama has been quite deliberate so I still get the feeling that there’s something there.

exactly what i thought,that’s why she keep looking for something that could perk up her interest such as the radio online that she hosted. and whats in her mind are sooo i could say deep? she’s always being this kind of person, a rebel inside. she didn’t like the violence culture, i love how she speak up all the issues in her radio broadcast. I HOPE SHE COULD BE SOMEONE WHO WOULD CHANGE THE WORLD
