❝ When are you coming home? ❞ {songha & daehwan}

“Die for You” Starset Lyric Memes

He picked up the phone with a swift movement, moving it towards his ear. There were four missed calls from Songha, which worried him yet he felt like he was this reason for all of this. Daehwan had promised to be back home, back to his apartment. However Jace had a breakdown and his plans had changed. He expected her to yell, to throw tantrum like she usually did however a soft voice welcomed him. “When are you coming home?”Closing his eyes the male let out a sigh. Her voice seemed vulnerable, something was up. Silence filled both lines as he thought of what to say. “I'll.. I'll probably take a bit, babe. Something came up, I'm in the midst of um, taking care of it. I'm sorry I wasn't there on time, I truly am.. I'll try to get back as soon as possible. I swear.” He had to make it up to her, that was for sure. It wasn't very usual for them to make plans but when they did something happened. They didn't need anything else haltering their relationship. He leaned against a tree, his shirt bloody and ripped. Whenever they had any sort of breakdown it got messy. Blood was spilled wether it was their own or someone else's. Jace was on the ground close to him, not saying anything. “You alright? Should I bring anything when I get back?” He tried to sound normal, like he always did yet something in his heart sink. She was silent, way too silent. That wasn't a good sign. Songha ended up the call quickly and he was left flustered.“There's no way to get out of this one.” Daehwan spoke as he sat next to his friend, looking over to his face. “We're screwed.” They had both fallen for two humans and things kept getting serious. Just last week Wonhee made a comment about marriage and now, Daehwan knew he and Songha were walking on a thin rope. But he didn't want to lose what he had, what they had. “Let's get cleaned up, go home.. We'll think about all of this tomorrow.. You need to eat and rest.” He studied his friend who was beaten down. They could solve this, they always did..

masterlist | wattpad | requests / ask enhypen

italics dialogue = english | bold + italics = confessionals | bold + [] = video captions

a special season for the enha family, a couple of years lateromg there were like 58869 requests for an en-family scenario

! so by this time, i'm assuming that korea has fully demolished their 'korean age' thing !

[ BE:LIFT Lab's first group, ENHYPEN! ]

The video began with an introduction to Enhypen, as well as a roll call of the members.

[ ENHYPEN&Hi is back for a season with the kids! ]

[ Park Hajun / 9 years old ]

"Hajun is the oldest," Jungwon starts things off. "He's a calm kid, even as a baby."

Whenever they were describing a kid, the next scene cuts to a footage of said kid.

"He likes to make funny jokes," Jake smiled brightly.

[ Park Junhyeok / 7 years old ]

"Junhyeok is just like his dad-" Sunghoon used his hand to imitate a puppet talking.

"He's a bigg charmer," Jay looked really proud. "He loves meeting new people."

[ Sim Elli / 6 years old ]

"Elli is like a puppy, she's curious about everythingg," Della slightly stretched out the 'everything.' "Why this, how that- I'm glad the members could answer her most times."

"She's superr competitive," Sunoo said with wide eyes. "-and she loves sports, lots of different sports."

"Just like her dadda," Jake, Sunghoon, Della and Heeseung said at the same time.

[ Nishimura Mari / 5 years old ]

"Mari is a lot like her mother, she loves to daydream," Niki described.

"She might be a dancer like her parents," Sunoo and Jay said together.

[ Kim Daehwan / 4 years old ]

"Daehwan is cool as a cucumber," Heeseung used his hands to emphasise the child's calmness.

"In dramas, he's like the tsundere character," Jungwon giggled. "He seems a bit cold but he's actually a big softie."

[ Yang Seokwoo / 3 years old ]

"Seokwoo is so cute," Della chuckled. "He's really cheerful. Always giggling."

"His hyungs and noonas love to mess with him- he really is such a cutie," Niki grinned cheekily.

[ Lee Haewon / 2 years old ]

"Haewon is the youngest and the clingiest," Sunoo said softly. "She's a little delicate but has a very bright energy."

"She's like our princess," Heeseung's eyes sparkled.

[ How does EN-Family spend their days? ]

[ Who is the first to wake up? ]

Della's phone vibrated from beside her, waking both her and Jake, as they were sleeping in the same bed.

[ It's lights sleepers, DELLA and JAKE! ]

They stretched and let out a few groans before Jake took her phone to turn the alarm off.

"Good morning," he cuddled into her again.

"Good morning," Della mumbled against his neck.

[ ... ]

"Oh my God! We have filming today!" she immediately got up upon realisation. "I have to look extra productive. I have kids now!"

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Hello," Della greeted to a self camera in a bathroom. "It's six in the morning and I need to get ready before my kids wake up," she was then seen doing her morning routine.

"I just like to be ready when everyone wakes up- it's a bit of a 'me time.'"

"Jungwon is starting to wake up, and Niki and Daehwan are still asleep," Jake entered the bathroom and wrapped his arms around her. "Engenes, good morning," he lazily waved to the camera.

[ Good morning! ]

"You wanna help me make breakfast?"

"Let's do it."

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"We all share a room. Jay and Sunoo. Jungwon, Jake and Niki. Me and Heeseung-hyung. We were so used to it during our early idol years that we just stayed thay way," Sunghoon chuckled. "Della always used to switch every day."

"Hajun and Junhyeok, Mari and Elli share a room. Seokwoo, Daehwan and Haewon still sleeps with one of us."

"Good morning," Jay woke up with a smile.

"Good morning dad-dad," Seokwoo finally said after stretching and tossing for a bit.

[ SEOKWOO is awake! ]

"Had a good sleep?" Seokwoo replied with a small nod. "Hey, don't go back to sleep, bud," Jay chuckled.

"I'm not sleeping!" he raised his head abruptly, making Jay laugh and kiss kiss his temple.

[ Cutie SEOKWOO is still sleepy 💤 ]

"Good morning, sunshine!" Sunghoon immediately went to Sunoo's bed upon entering the room. "How's my baby?"

[ SUNGHOON came to say good morning ]

"What? What?" Sunoo looked at him with furrowed eyebrows

"Not you! Haewonie!" he slapped the younger's shoulder.

[ The members still act like teenagers sometimes ]

Haewon giggled at the sight before laying on top of Sunsun. The editors placed cute bouncy noises for the background sound.

"Good morning abeoji, appaji," she laid face down so her voice was very muffled.

"What about dad?!" Jay called out.

[ Dad wants some too ]

"Good morning dad-dad!" Sunsun giggled at their daughter's cuteness.

"Good morning abeoji, appaji!" Seokwoo joined.

[ The EN-Family has to constantly repeat their greetings ]

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Hello," Jungwon said to his self-camera. "So the oldest two are awake and I'm going to supervise them while they get ready."

"We let Junhyeok and Hajun do most things themselves but we're always there just in case they need help or forget something," Jungwon explained. "The oldest girls are still very reliant but they always try to do lots of things themselves."

"Good morning," Jungwon knocked before entering Hajun and Junhyeok's room. "Oh you're already in uniform?"

[ Primary school students, HAJUN and JUNHYEOK! ]

"Good morning appa," the two almost said in unison. Jungwon turned the camera towards them. "Good morning," they waved to the audience.

"Have you brushed your teeth?" they shook their head. "Washed your face?" yet again. "Sunscreen?" and again. "Okay then let's go!"

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Elli, Junhyeok and Hajun are already in primary school. Like their mom, they wanted to join an international school," Sunoo said. "Haewon is still in preschool and everyone else goes to kindergarten."

"Mamaa!" Mari ran to her mother in the kitchen. She was already dressed.

[ Kindergartener MARI with uneven hair? ]

"Yes, sweetie?" Della immediately picked up the child.

"I want pigtails but papa doesn't know how," Mari touched her messily executed hair. "And- and Ellie wants a braid but papa also cannot."

[ My hair! ]

"Della-ya," Heeseung showed up with an awkward chuckle. Beside him was a badly-executed-braided Elli. "I need help."

[ Me too, eomma! ]

"Oh my God," Della couldn't help but laugh. "My poor babies."

"Why? Why?" Jay and Jake stood beside her to see what happened. "What the?! Hyung!"

[ Babies need a do-over ]

"I've taught you so many times!" Della walked over to the older. "Come on, I'll teach you again. Can you guys handle it?"

"Yes ma'am!" 

Turns out the two had a hard time coordinating without Della. So Jay sent the Aussie to check on one missing member and child.

[ Our Tom & Jerry, 2J ]

"Oh damn! Our babies!" he rushed back to his room. "Niki-ya! Nathan! Double N let's get up, let's go."

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Engenes, hello," Niki waved at his self-camera. He was awake and cleaned up this time. "Daehwan and I woke up a bit late but we managed. Right, Daehwanie?"

[ Maknae and DAEHWAN are up! ]

「はい！」 Daehwan moved to stand beside his otouchan. [hai = yes]

[ A multilingual family ]

「おはようと言ってください」 Niki pointed to the camera. [ohayouto ittekudasai = please say good morning]

「おはよう...」 Daehwan looked to his otouchan for help. [ohayou = good morning...]

"Engenes," Niki giggled.

"Engenes," Daehwan waved with a sweet smile.

[ ENGENES ❤️ ]

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Okay! Is everyone ready?!" Jungwon grabbed the keys.

"Yess!" all the kids said in unison.

"Let's go to the car! Say goodbye!" Sunghoon and Jungwon will be driving two separate cars. One to the primary school and one to the preschool-kindergarten.

"Goodbye otousan," "Goodbye papa!" "Goodbye appaji!" "Goodbye pops," "Goodbye mom," "Goodbye otouchan!" "Goodbye mama," "Goodbye dad-dad!" "Goodbye mommy!" "Goodbye dadda!" "Goodbye abeoji," "Goodbye appa!" "Goodbye dad," the kids' voices just kept overlapping on top of each other's while they gave all their parents a hug and their mom an additional kiss on the cheek.

[ 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 ]

"Be good!" Heeseung called out.

"Yess!" they all made their way to the cars.

"Drive safe, darlings," Della gave Sungwon a brief kiss. "See you in the company."

"Bye guys! Drive safe!"

✄✄✄✄✄✄✄✄

"Noo!" a few screams were heard in the En-house.

[ ??? ]

"Haewon-ahh!" the members all sounded sad that Haewon lost her balance while playing 'Red Light, Green Light.'

[ Maknae lost her balance ]

"Come here," Hajun outstretched his hand for Haewon to hold and indicate that she's in 'prison.'

"We'll get you out, Luce!" Junhyeok announced.

[ We'll save you! ]

"Ya, if you keep talking, you might lose your balance," Elli mumbled loudly.

"You didn't complain when mom and fathers talked," these two are always bickering.

"Did they lose their balance?"

"Did I lose my balance?"

"Hyung, noona- we're in the middle of a game," Seokwoo reminded.

"Everyone! We're gonna order pizza for dinner, agree?" Jay grabbed everyone's attention.

"I want cheese pizza!" "I want tomato!" "Cheese! Cheese! Cheese!" as usual, it's always chaotic.

[ Chaos ]

"Hold up, hold up- two large cheese pizzas, two large margarita, one hawaiian and some chicken wings, agree?!" Jay listed.

"Pepperoni?" Mari asked.

"Ah sorry- one large margarita and a pepperoni, agree?" Jay corrected.

[ Dad is confused ]

"Yess!"

"Is ordering food difficult?" a PD asked.

"Not really. We just give them three or so options and they can choose," Niki answered. "We don't give them a lot of choices and that makes it easier on both ends."

"잘 먹겠습니다!" everyone said before diving into their food. Though Della, Sunoo and Jake were busily feeding the youngest three. [jal meokkesseubnida = thank you for the food]

"Lala, ahh," and Niki tried to help out by feeding his wife. The boys like to alter between feeding themselves and their children, but Della always prefers to eat after her kid is done.

[ Eomma needs to eat too ]

"Eomma, ahh," Hajun copied.

"Thank you, my love."

Final PBIO/IOTNBO analysis and theory

This post is my final analysis and includes some questions I have as we go into the final weekend of one of the best dramas in history. It is VERY long as I consolidate and expand on my previous analysis and theories.

I also lost a big chunk of this post while I was working on the draft just a few hours before posting, resulting to this post as a little inconsistent. Excuse me if my points are messy and some points missing with some issues untouched (because I forgot 😭). I think most points can be linked back to my past theories so you can read up on them if you haven’t.

List of my theories before ep 14:

Do Heejae and the other woman

Moonyoung’s background and Go Daehwan

Head Nurse is NOT Do Heejae, she’s the previous housekeeper

Maybe Head Nurse really is Do Heejae

As usual, please note that anything I quote may be a mix of Netflix’s subs and my translation because I know Korean and Netflix tends to miss nuances sometimes.

Firstly, Park Ok Ran’s dead.

Let’s get this out of the way first. (You can read my first theory on her role in this whole saga.)

“She can’t come anymore.”

Can’t have her exposing Park Haengja. Or plot twist: she is alive and returns to save the trio from the villain 😆

No one’s memory is reliable

Not Kangtae’s as established in ep 6 that he didn’t remember his mother brought them to eat jjamppong because he’s the one who liked it, not Sangtae.

Not Sangtae’s. In spite of his good memory, it was established in ep 10 that he didn’t remember Kangtae saving him, so his memories can be flawed as well.

Therefore, not Moonyoung’s, and definitely not Go Daehwan’s.

There are few things that we can be sure because they are concurrent:

There was a female body in the basement that was disposed or disappeared.

The murderer of Taetae Bros’ mother wore Moonyoung’s mother’s a one-of-a-kind brooch.

There was a body in the reservoir.

Taetae Bros’ mother was the new housekeeper (I saw that some people disagree but here are the supporting screenshots).

There were definitely two women

My theory that there were 2 women in Moonyoung’s family still stands and I’m expanding on it.

Let’s look at the family photos first. There are multiple versions of the family photo, and I suspect they were taken at different times. Here they are in what I think is the chronological order.

1) Photo in the basement: Go Daehwan had full-rimmed glasses, Moonyoung wore a scarf and stood closer to him with his hand on her shoulder, and the lady wore a fully black high neck top with the brooch on the right.

Before the family moved in, on the day Go Daehwan showed the lady around the house, he was wearing the full-rimmed glasses, and the house looked lived in (fully furnished, fully decorated, shelves full). 

2) Go Daehwan’s photo: Go Daehwan had half-rimmed glasses, Moonyoung stood right in the middle and without the scarf, and the lady wore a blazer over a straight neckline blouse with the brooch on the right.

3) Park Haengja’s photo seems to be the same as Moonyoung’s: Go Daehwan with half-rimmed glasses, can’t tell whether Moonyoung was wearing a scarf or not but she sat nearer to the lady who wore the same blazer over a straight neckline blouse without the brooch.

Go Daehwan had half-rimmed glasses when he realised his wife killed Taetae Bros’ mother.

Photos are evidences of relationships. In a group photo, the people who are closer would pose closer to each other. These family photos tell us that Go Daehwan and Moonyoung were actually close, and showed us the progression of Moonyoung’s relationship with the woman.

But why were multiple photos taken? If they were the same woman, why are they still hiding the woman’s face in the photos?

When Go Daehwan killed his wife, he said, “If I die, my daughter will become a monster like you.”

Why was it “my daughter” and not “our daughter?” It’s even odder for Koreans because being a very collectivist society, they don’t claim people or objects as mine. They say “our country,” “our father,” “our daughter” to show unity even when they actually mean “my country,” “my father,” “my daughter.”

Moonyoung insisted she’s an orphan. Technically, when one biological parent dies, the child is an orphan (single orphan). So perhaps Moonyoung’s not wrong. And as explored in my second theory post, she might have been referring to her biological mother. The abusive woman was probably her stepmother.

Go Daehwan told Director Oh that his wife loved Moonyoung “terribly. Very terribly,” and we have Moonyoung who doesn’t want a child to not get jealous over Kangtae’s affection. Judging by the family photos (Moonyoung posing closer to the woman each time), perhaps the stepmother was jealous of the father-daughter relationship and became obsessed with Moonyoung.

Would a child be afraid of their parent because they didn’t want to be hated? I was just afraid my mother would scold me (which was a lot). Right, we can argue that her mother was abusive, but this is something to think about.

Park Haengja: stepmother and crazy aunt

Bluebeard the French folklore, which ep 6 was based on, is about a man who married several times as he killed his disobedient wives. According to Wikipedia, his final wife had invited her sister and others over for a party before she snuck away to explore the forbidden room. Bluebeard found out and was about to kill her on the spot when her sister and brothers arrived to kill Bluebeard.

It was also in ep 6 when Taetae Bros moved in that they specifically had a shot of the dolls in Moonyoung’s old room (the brothers’ new room). I mentioned this previously: one male doll as Go Daehwan, two female dolls in similar dresses as Moonyoung’s mother and stepmother, and one small female doll.

You can see the two dolls behind little Moonyoung in her memory of her father reading her a book.

The dolls are a representation of the Go family in the house because in ep 7, only the small female doll (Moonyoung) was left, and I think there are 2 more new figurines as Taetae Bros on that cabinet but I can’t be bothered to search for a clearer shot 😁

When Go Daehwan strangled little Moonyoung, afraid she would become like her mother, they featured one of the dolls in the shot.

The point of mentioning the dolls is: Moonyoung’s mother wore a similar dress as the dolls in most of the flashbacks.

Ep 13 was based on the Korean folklore The Story of Janghwa and Hongryeon and its popular movie adaptation The Tale of Two Sisters (2003). IOTNBO has more links to this story than “the bystander is worse than the abuser.”

In the movie, Moon Geunyoung’s character frequently dressed in floral patterns (like the dolls’ and Moonyoung’s mother’s dresses).

In both the folklore and the movie, the sisters were named after rose and lotus flowers. In the folklore, it’s the sister that died who was named after the rose flower. In the movie, it’s the surviving sister that was named after the rose flower. The rose is also a motif of Moonyoung’s mother.

The flower language of rose is love and passion. Personally, considering how Moonyoung always thought of her mother when she brushed her hair, and her love for a head pat, I think the rose also symbolises her mother’s "affection."

The movie is a story of two sisters who were abused by their stepmother so badly that one of them died. As it turns out, the remaining sister developed dissociative identity disorder (DID; the same disorder as the patient Yoo Sunhae) with two other personalities: her dead sister (Moon Geunyoung’s character) and her stepmother.

I take this as a lead that Moonyoung has a stepmother, who also happens to be her aunt obsessed with her sister. Wicked Witch of the West (WWOTW) coveted Wicked Witch of the East’s (WWOTE) ruby shoes; perhaps the aunt wanted to be in her sister’s shoes, figuratively AND literally.

Now here’s another “coincidence” from the same:

Left: Moon Geunyoung. Right: Im Soojung (sister with DID).

The story Go Daehwan read to little Moonyoung mentioned a bad wizard that wasn’t invited to the birthday party so he went to the castle.

The story Go Daehwan read to little Moonyoung mentioned a bad wizard that wasn’t invited to the birthday party so he/she went to the castle to cause trouble. 

Glinda the Good Witch of the North described WWOTW as worse than WWOTE.

Go Daehwan, who had recognition and memory impairment, said his wife has an angelic face but a devil lives within. Perhaps he remembers two persons as one.

We learnt from Sangin that 1) Do Heejae came from a prestigious family of medical professionals, 2) she dropped out of 3rd year of med school, and 3) she cut ties with everyone in her family. Could she have a sister in nursing? Could she have cut ties with her family because they cray cray (or the good old "you’ll starve with a creative career")?

Park Haengja has not claimed herself as Do Heejae, and the woman in the family photos are still covered.

Following these, we can assume that Park Haengja’s the bad witch who is neither Do Heejae nor Moonyoung’s birth mother. She’s the stepmother and crazy aunt (I cover more about the sisters in the next section).

There’s always a crazy aunt or uncle.

It’s just too easy if Park Haengja really is Do Heejae. I’d also be disappointed in the writer if she takes this route because it’s cliché villain and this is not a makjang drama with illogical plot twists. It would also be a step back from all the efforts this show has been making to dispel stigma against mental illness.

So they were sisters and...

...one of them died. In water. 

As per my first theory, the WWOTW and WWOTE are sisters in some adaptations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. WWOTE died under a house then disappeared into thin air, and WWOTW pretended to die in contact of water but she returned disguised as a good person. Sound familiar?

The Story of Janghwa and Hongryeon is a Korean folklore of a stepmother who abused two sisters to their death. She had her biological son push Janghwa the older sister into a pond and she drowned. The remaining sister couldn’t take the abuse any longer and drowned herself in the same pond.

The song “Oh My Darling Clementine” has a few variations but here’s the traditional lyrics (I removed repeated stanzas):

Oh my darling, oh my darling Oh my darling, Clementine You are lost and gone forever Dreadful sorry, Clementine In a cavern, in a canyon Excavating for a mine Dwelt a miner, forty-niner And his daughter, Clementine Light she was and like a fairy And her shoes were number nine Herring boxes, without topses Sandals were for Clementine Drove she ducklings to the water Ev'ry morning just at nine Hit her foot against a splinter Fell into the foaming brine Oh my darling, oh my darling Oh my darling, Clementine You are lost and gone forever Dreadful sorry, Clementine Ruby lips above the water Blowing bubbles, soft and fine But, alas, I was no swimmer So I lost my Clementine How I missed her! How I missed her How I missed my Clementine But I kissed her little sister I forgot my Clementine

These stories are all about 2 sisters and dying in water. Whether they’re sisters or not, a woman died and she’s related to Go Daehwan somehow.

The Murder of the Witch of the West

Do Heejae’s novel hold huge clues. Here’s my translation of an excerpt from volume 9 shown in ep 10.

… __’s scalp skinned with a hunting knife without hesitation. The corpse’s lips sewed in a fence stitch. The body dismembered with a hand axe and thrown into the trunk. Yooyoung persistently as she watched the back of the West Witch leave unhurriedly after finishing the killing and leaving notes.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Why do you choose to kill happy people only?"

But as usual, there was no answer. Was it because of Yooyoung’s tenacity to catch the West Witch? Yooyoung always sees the West Witch at the crime scenes. A faceless woman who always observed Yooyoung work hard on finding the criminal before leaving abruptly. Yooyoung began to look at the crime scene from the criminal's perspective. Why here? Why kill by stabbing this way? As she simulates the crime, Yooyoung finds herself assimilating with the criminal. She felt a thrill from imagining that she stabbed and cut the victim. She’s getting confused. Is she a detective or a murderer?

Around the same time, a murder occurred. The West Witch mimicked a passage from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, everything was in line with the Wicked Witch of the West, right down to the signature butterfly design. However, Yooyoung somehow felt guilty.

...

The suspect was a middle-aged woman in her 40s.

Yeah.

The misunderstanding

Othello killed his wife because he mistook his wife for committing adultery.

Romeo and Juliet mistook each other’s plan. Romeo died from drinking real poison, and Juliet faked her death before realising the mistake and killed herself with Romeo’s dagger.

Janghwa was framed and wrongfully accused by her stepmother for being unchaste. Her father believed it. When Janghwa ran away, her stepmother and stepbrother chased after her, and her stepbrother (under her stepmother’s instruction) pushed her into a pond to drown to her death.

What did Go Daehwan misunderstand? What misunderstanding did his recognition and memory impairment cause? Why was his wife being crazy but looked so shocked when he turned her around?

I do not believe that his memory of killing his wife is a complete memory because it has been mentioned multiple times that his memories are corrupted. I think it’s fragments of different memories pieced together.

What’s going on with Park Haengja?

There are a few possibilities.

Park Haengja is Do Heejae’s sister who coveted her sister’s position and grew obsessed with her sister’s novel.

Do Heejae’s Moonyoung’s biological mother and Park Haengja’s her stepmother.

OR Moonyoung’s biological mother died when she was born, Do Heejae’s the stepmother (abusive but still her mother because she raised Moonyoung), and Park Haengja’s the obsessive aunt.

She got so obsessed she came to believe she’s Do Heejae.

So obsessed she was always keeping an eye on Moonyoung to fulfil the prophecy that is the novel. ("You’re my greatest creation," and volume 3, shown in episode 10 with Park Ok Ran’s copy, has passages that describes episode 3.)

Park Haengja’s the one who killed Taetae Bros’ mother (screenshots of Do Heejae vs murderer below).

She took advantage of Go Daehwan’s cognitive impairment and instigated him to kill the real Do Heejae. She’s the one who saw Go Daehwan kill the woman and hide her in the basement.

Do Heejae wore her butterfly brooch on right, the murderer wore it on the left. Do Heejae always wore red nail polish and a gold rose ring, the murderer did not (although she could have had them removed if it’s premeditated).

Moonyoung’s mother:

Murderer:

Moonyoung’s mother:

Murderer:

Clearly Do Heejae didn’t wear her brooch all the time, so it would have been easy to steal the brooch. However, Do Heejae wore her ring all the time, so Park Haengja can only get the ring after she dies and "truly” become Do Heejae.

End.

I think I recovered most of my points but they’re still feel incomplete 😭

with the buzz created by the boys outing on DECEMBER 19, LGC has been capitalizing on the hype to announce that the show will begin airing on JANUARY 29. in the meanwhile, in JANUARY 18, the 24 boys have been called in studio for a formal evaluation. instead of Bae Siwoo, they realize that this season, there is no mc, just the people who hold their futures in their hands: Hyuncheol, head manager of the trainees; Park Jeongan, current CEO; Lee Iseul, head creative director; and Roe Kangdae, head manager of LGC Creatives.

rather than kim hyuncheol too, it’s park jeongan that stands up to talk to the trainees once all of them are seated, divided by team. “your first mission to prove to us that you could work cohesively as a team without our supervising. TEAM 1 and TEAM 2, you are the ones who impressed us the most. TEAM 1, your idea was the most original and attention grabbing. TEAM 2, while your idea had less impact than team 1′s, the way you’ve executed your idea was near perfect.” he pauses, eyes going from one team to another. “TEAM 2...” a long second passes before he continues “for this mission, you are the winners.” the four higher ups finally let their hard mask slip to clap for the team as the CEO makes the 8 boys come to him. to each of them, he places a necklace around their necks before telling them to sit down.

“as you can see, the whole team has received a necklace with a GREEN gem. this gem represents TEAM SPIRIT. under your chairs, you will find boxes. before opening them, listen carefully; your goal is to collect ALL 5 GEMS. The first one, green in color, represents your ability to work in a team. The second one, RED in color encompasses all the TALENT required of an idol; singing, rapping, dancing and performing. a person perfect in a talent and lacking in another could end up not receiving a red gem. the third one, BLUE in color, represents your STAR QUALITY. the fourth one, YELLOW in color, represents your PERSONALITY; a person with a good character is important to us. being passive will not make you get this gem de facto. and finally, the last one, PURPLE in color, represent your ability for GROWTH, both as an artist and individual; we refuse to debut someone who has already peaked and stop improving. debuting is the real starting line, not the end of the race.”

he pauses to give everybody the time to digest the information that’s been given. “to continue in this competition today, you all need a minimum of ONE necklace.” the CEO warns. “yes, there are two empty boxes.” he continues gravely. “HEO DAEHWAN, SEO JUNHWAN, you may open your box.” the tension rises as the boys do so, to reveal an empty box. “unfortunately, your adventure with future dreams ends here.” the older man gives time to the boys to share their feelings and say their goodbyes before continuing.”

“some boxes also do not contain any gem at all.” he announces, shocking the audience. “HWANG MINJUN, JI HANEUL, TSAI KING.” he says. “please step forward and open your boxes.” indeed, instead of the gems that the others have received before, a different type of pendant is revealed. “last season, Haneul and King were part of the winning team, while Minjun came to support them when a member of that team got injured. during half a year, the three of them have shown us their team spirit, their talents, their star quality, their personality and their growth. the public has been charmed by them and their unit. TYPE ZERO.” the eyes of the staff all turn towards the three boys. on hyuncheol’s face, a smile of pride blooms. “to reward your hard work, TYPE ZERO is now our first fixed unit and the new official group debuted under LEGACY ENTERTAINMENT.” the four higher ups to clap for the three boys. they are then each given the time to share their feelings on debuting.

once the calm is back, jeongan continue. “joining them are the following trainees; IM HYUNJIN, OKAMOTO AKIRA, BAE NATHAN, LEE BENJI.” after each name called, the boys are asked to open their boxes and reveal the same pendant as the other 3. “and finally... after much debate... KANG JUN.” after jun is done opening his box and speaking, the 8 members of TYPE ZERO are seated opposite to the now 15 remaining contestants.

“the 15 of you; your chance to debut hasn’t passed. if by the end of the show you manage to collect all 5 gems, you will be given a chance to debut in a brand new unit. you may now open your boxes.”

“you now all know areas in which you either need to improve or be more proactive at showing.” the ceo declares once each boy has checked the content of their boxes.

DORMS & TEAMS

due to the boys of type zero being removed from the competition, here are the teams and dorms updated:

DORM 1: ahn dohwan, ahn jaesun, chwe hunji, lee daeyeol, lee jiho

DORM 2: choi jinyoung, hwang subin, jung ahin, kim alex

once again; the dorms have 4 bedrooms each, and roommate divisions are up to the trainees. there are cameras filming 24/7 in every room except bathrooms. no visits are allowed in the dorms except from other future dreams participants. trainees MUST sleep in their assigned dorm. the dorms are situated in the same area as lgc agency’s but not in the same building. managers will be in charge of transporting trainees everyday.

MISSION 1: NEW SONGS (15 contestants + Type Zero)

the 24 boys will be recording the intro and outro of the show. all of them will record the full song. while only part of the songs will be used during the show, they are told that both songs will be performed on the live finale !

INTRO: raise the roof (0:43 to 1:18)

OUTRO: victory song (1:30 to 1:50)

since the songs must be recorded by the end of the week of January 18, JUNIOR PRODUCERS will give a hand to the staff for the recording of the songs.

MISSION 2: TMI VIDEO (15 contestants + Type Zero)

for the future fans to know their favorites even better, legacy wants each boy to record a 30 seconds TMI video. they are to choose the locations and the information they wish to share themselves. ** you have until APRIL 17 to fulfill this requirement ** 

MISSION 2: CHALLENGING PERFORMANCE (15 contestants only)

on FEBRUARY 26, the three new teams will face off on stage. the theme is: CHALLENGING ONESELF. the staff knows that during those competitions, contestants are likely to showcase skills they are entirely confident in and rarely challenge themselves. LGC wants the contestants to try a position that will challenge them, to get out of their comfort zone. while this doesn’t mean that somebody who cannot rap should take the rap position, it means that somebody who’s used to, for instance, be main vocal should try their hand at being simply a vocalist and prove that they can handle a support role. the boys may choose any BOY GROUP SONG released BEFORE JANUARY 2015. the song must be validated by the staff once the choice is done and the line distribution provided in your solos.

REQUIREMENTS

NEW SONGS: write a 300+ words solo or 4 replies (minimum 8 lines) thread with a PRODUCER happening during the recording of the songs for +4 POINTS TO DISTRIBUTE ANYWHERE and +8 NOTORIETY **producers can only write with 2 boys each, therefore some might have to write solos**

daehwan { spelling meme }

Spell a character’s name in my askbox for headcanons…

D: How do they react around animals?Daehwan can be pretty nice to dogs or cats. He was raised with horses though, so he loves them and always gets excited when he’s around them. He probably spams Jace’s phone with dog pictures and he takes tons if photographs of animals.

A: What is their favorite color?I can give you a bonus and say that his least favorite color is red. I bet his favorite color is always changing but I think that his top favorites would be grey, orange and navy blue.

E: What is their Jung type? ENTP Extravert(50%)  iNtuitive(25%)  Thinking(3%)  Perceiving(9%)

H: What type of music do they listen to? Probably anything. He’s the type of person to turn on the radio and be chill with whatever comes on. I bet his favorites are more old school rock bands though. He’s old give him some credit.

W: What is their Hogwarts house? Gryffindor.

A: What is their favorite color?Answered.

N: Are they scared of anything? Lately he has been scared of losing Songha and Wonhee due to them finding out about his secret. One of his long term fears though is being separated from Jace, he’s Daehwan’s brother and he fears losing him. Another fear would be to live without a purpose or without enjoying it.

More PBIO/IOTNBO Theories

Read my theory on Do Heejae and Head Nurse here

Again, note that if I quote anything, it might be a mix of Netflix’s subs and my translation because I know Korean and Netflix tends to miss nuances sometimes so I sometimes ignore their subs or change it another language.

Is Moonyoung an orphan? Probably.

Moonyoung has mentioned twice that she’s an orphan, and… I think she really might be an actual orphan adopted by Go Daehwan and Do Heejae. (Ahem, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’s Dorothy is an orphan too.)

In ep 1, she told Juri that she’s an orphan and she knew that. Juri replied, "But your mother is alive," before Moonyoung interrupted that she registered her death a long time ago.

Considering that they were friends and fell out before Moonyoung transferred schools (I assume due to her mother’s death and her father landing in the hospital), Moonyoung definitely didn’t confide in Juri about what happened to her parents. Juri didn’t know Do Heejae died. Then how would Juri know Moonyoung’s an orphan if Moonyoung meant she became an orphan from Do Heejae’s and Go Daehwan’s soul’s deaths? Moonyoung probably told Juri she’s an orphan when they were still friends.

In ep 11, Netflix subbed her words to Sangin as "Family? I’m an orphan," but the original words are actually, "Family? I’m originally an orphan." Dun dun dun~

Someone (I forgot who and when) said Go Daehwan built the house to celebrate Moonyoung’s birth and for his wife to focus on her writing. Only Moonyoung knows the accuracy of this information. In ep 6, when Moonyoung told Sangtae the Bluebeard story, she voiced over a flashback of Go Daehwan showing a woman around the house (which strangely looked already lived in, completely furnished and decorated with full shelves), but her stomach was flat and they were not carrying a baby. She was also wearing heels; no pregnant Asian would wear heels even in the first term.

Now, let’s take a look at Sangtae’s collection of Moonyoung’s books. (He has 2 copies of Moonyoung’s bestsellers or his favourites of her books! 1 for keeping and 1 for his drawings. How cute is that ❤️)

Left to right: "The Boy Who Fed on Nightmares", "The Anglerfish’s Grip", "Even If It’s Money, Oh? Mummy", "The Ugly Dog’s Child", "The Girl Who Rode The Wooden Horse", "The Cheerful Dog"

Technically, 머니머니해도 어? 머니 (Even If It’s Money, Oh? Mummy) translates to Even If It’s Money, Oh? Money but “어? 머니” is a play of words on mother. When you put these 2 words together, it’s 어머니 or mother. The cover also has a mother and child to confirm the word play.

Why isn’t it "Oh! Mummy" and not "Oh? Mummy" like they’re unsure about the mother?

Back to ep 1, Sangtae was playing an ep of Dooly.

The particular scene played was of a conversation between Dooly and his guardian Go Kil Dong, where Dooly said he decided he would love Go Kil Dong.

The point: Dooly’s an orphan and he loves Go Kildong. Moonyoung told Sangtae, in ep 9, that she likes the character Go Kildong too.

There have been some mentions that Moonyoung looked like her mother and that she’s as beautiful as her. But maybe Moonyoung’s birth parents are beautiful too? Lol

Moonyoung’s obedience and abandonment issue

Moonyoung has always known she’s an orphan. When a child is adopted, it is natural they feel insecure and become afraid of being abandoned. Balmain’s creative director Olivier Rousteing mentioned an interview that he was adopted and grew up with a lot of love from his adoptive parents, but he still had that insecurity and was afraid they would send him away so he worked very hard to be good since he was young.

Moonyoung must have felt the same, and I’m betting Do Heejae used abandonment against little Moonyoung so she would be obedient to her.

What else could cause excited little Moonyoung to be mean to Kangtae in a split moment with her mother? By that age, most kids would have felt comfortable talking back to or disobeying their parents even just a little, and the parents would allow it sometimes (even my 4-year-old cousin started at 3). But little Moonyoung couldn’t even assert herself.

There have been hints that Moonyoung has abandonment issues and it is embedded in her brain that children have to be obedient to their parents or they would be abandoned.

1. What she said to Kangtae in ep 3 caused Kangtae to be got offended by her objectification, however, it really reflects on what she thinks about the parent-child relationship.

“Children dump their parents when they pass their expiration date and reek a rotten smell. Parents embrace the children who often behave cutely, and dump the stupid and useless child.”

(These are Moonyoung’s actual words. I know Netflix translated differently but this explains better why Kangtae was so offended he had to get off the car.)

2. In ep 7, Director Oh read Go Daehwan’s files to look into the family’s relationship. In one session, he mentioned that Moonyoung was obedient to her mother.

Had insomnia for 3 days. Said his daughter is so scary he couldn’t sleep. Then he smiled and described his daughter as pretty like her mother. Seems to have ambivalent description of daughter. When asked if his daughter is good-natured, he questioned whether a daughter who is obedient to her mother is good-natured. When I answered I’m not sure, he doesn’t say anything and stared out the window. . . . Session ended as he looked tired.

So obedient that if her mother told her to do bad things, she would do it.

3. She felt abandoned when she learnt Juri didn’t want just one friend.

4. She has a book (The Ugly Dog’s Child) named after The Ugly Duckling which is about a baby swan born into a family of ducks that felt unwanted by practically everyone (ducks, geese, etc.) before a bevy of swans accepted him.

Fun note: The Ugly Dog’s Child is a wordplay. Just remove 1 character and it's The Ugly Son of a Bitch. 😆

Go Daehwan’s deal

Here are some things Go Daehwan has said about Moonyoung and Do Heejae.

To Juri in ep 1:

“If Moonyoung comes… die.”

This could be interpreted in 2 ways:

He would die because Moonyoung would kill him. (Juri’s interpretation)

Moonyoung would die.

This scene comes after the horrible dad tried to kill his daughter thinking it would protect her. This insinuates that Go Daehwan tried to kill little Moonyoung to protect her.

To Head Nurse:

“She’s so pretty, just like an angel. Moonyoung’s mother.”

To Director Oh:

“My wife? She’s very intellectual and elegant. She loved our daughter terribly. Very terribly.”

A conversation with Director Oh:

Go Daehwan: She’s the same as that woman. Everyone’s deceived by that woman. A devil lives under that angelic face.

Director Oh: Every human has good and bad traits.

Go Daehwan: That woman is a monster. She killed someone. I’m telling you, she killed someone. Director Oh: Where is that monster?

Go Daehwan: I killed her. I’m sure I killed her but she came back. She came to kill me. She’s going to kill me.

Go Daehwan’s condition corrupts his memories, so he has been mixing Do Heejae and Moonyoung up. This condition may have caused him a mental breakdown too when Moonyoung was little. 

Earlier, Director Oh suspected Go Daehwan strangled Moonyoung at the hospital because he mistook her for someone else (Do Heejae).

Park Ok Ran told Head Nurse that Othello killed his wife because of a misunderstanding.

I’m guessing…

Do Heejae found out she killed Do Heejae so he killed her.

Moonyoung was seen by the lake with a woman drowning. Maybe he thought Moonyoung was the culprit.

He realised Do Heejae was grooming Moonyoung to be a mini-me, so he tried to kill her to release her from Do Heejae’s clutches and prevent her from becoming worse. (Remember he questioned whether a child is good-natured if she was obedient to her mother.)

The Anglerfish’s Grip might be based on Do Heejae’s obsessive control over Moonyoung.

End.

I have no idea how this links to Head Nurse aka Do Heejae’s sister if it’s true.

I have another theory but let’s see what happens in this weekend’s eps 😅

Random note: The Anglerfish’s Grip was a little hard to translate. 손, 아귀 directly translates to "hand, anglerfish" but when the 2 words are read together, 손아귀 translates to "grip." The book cover has an anglerfish (the book Kangtae picked up in ep 1 in the meeting room) so I translated it as The Anglerfish’s Grip.

[chewiewrites-archive]

≠ daehwan for wonhee, songha and jace.

( correction the symbol was ⊗ not ≠ )

Send me a ⊗ for one thing my muse dislikes about yours.

( under the cut because I got carried away )

ABT WONHEE ;; Something Daehwan isn’t too fond of that Wonhee does is how she lowers herself. Usually she holds confidence and stuff, but there are time that she lets herself be lowered and doesn’t speak about it. Maybe it’s because she’s too nice. Also, something related to that, Daehwan doesn’t really understand why she doesn’t come forward with her feelings towards Jace, he wishes she would have a little more confident or had more faith. She seems too scared to ever try something romantically out. If Jace spoke about it, it would be something similar to this:

“I wish she had a little more faith in herself when taking decisions.. I don’t know how but at times she manages to fade away when she’s with certain people.. I’m not too fond of that. I think she’s like Jace in the way that she lacks courage or confident when they feel strongly about something.. She definitely has to change that.”

ABT SONGHA ;; One thing you would expect for him to say is her smart mouth but he doesn’t mind that since he has one. What does bother him is how easily she can misunderstand his actions and her jealousy. Overall Daehwan sees her as a very confusing person, he wishes to understand her like he does with Wonhee (maybe that has to do with how long they have known each other since Dae first meet Wonhee and stuff). If Jace spoke about it, it would be something similar to this:

“Where do I start with her? It’s so easy for her to misunderstand me, I wish she had a little more faith in me. Like, do I really appear like a bad person? I don’t know.. I just want her to be a bit more open, I guess it’s because we haven’t known each other for that long.”

ABT JACE ;; Something that has bother Daehwan about Jace from day one is his lack of nerve. Jace is certainly more hesitant than Daehwan, and worries tons. He wishes his friend would be able to live more freely, they have eternity to live and enjoy it yet it seems that Jace holds back a lot due to fear. He has talked about this with Jace a lot but it still bothers him. Daehwan wants to see him try something else without worrying about control. At first Daehwan was like that but he realized how much of a waste it is to live like that. (At the same time Daehwan understands due to Jace past experiences). Still, he wants to encourage his friend to live a little more. If Jace spoke about it, it would be something similar to this:

“Ah, this dude seriously need a chill pill to be able to do things. He has so much potential but he’s so scared? I feel like a dad when I talk to him about it but he really needs to let loose, once he does he’ll enjoy living a lot more. I can understand him though, it’s hard to carry this burden but still living with fear is not living at all. I need to make him realize this or something, I don’t know for sure, it’s hard to be able to say this without insulting him or coming off too strong.”
