A group of wealthy, privileged high schoolers deal with the complexities of their family lives, and their friendships and history with each other. When a young girl moves into one of the mansions to stay with her mother, the housekeeper, she attracts the attention of the troubled young man who lives there.
Young-do braces himself before walking up to a caf window. Inside is his mother, smiling at customers. He gazes at her for a moment, but when she turns to look in his direction, he bolts behind a wall to stay out of sight and starts to cry.
Chan-young and VP Yoon go on a father-son fishing trip like the adorable duo that they are, and then Won and Tan totally crash it, which is even cuter. Chan-young tries to teach Tan about the art of waiting for the fish, which Tan is of course way too impatient to even listen to.
Won is instantly back to sneering at Tan after having just been so pleased at fiftieth place, and Tan drags Chan-young away in a huff for being the cause of his grief. VP Yoon asks if Won has told Tan yet, and Won says the story will be in the news tomorrow.
Young-do returns to the bike shop and remembers seeing Eun-sang there. He finally takes out the band-aid she gave him and uses it to wrap the cut on his finger from washing dishes at the hotel, perhaps ready to let himself heal.
Tan becomes a senior in high school (which just makes me laugh to realize they were just juniors all this time, holy cow) and Myung-soo greets him with a camera in his face as always, while Rachel walks past without a word.
I guess in the grand scheme of things I had a better time in Episodes 19 and 20 because everyone finally got to be happy or nice, so at least we end on an up-note, even if it hurts the head a little to ask too many questions like why or how. I wish I could say that the drama followed through on its most interesting ideas, or that the romance truly earned a happily ever after by walking through the fire and sacrificing everything for love. But mostly I think we just went through the motions. We sure went through a lot of hoops, but I never once felt the temperature rise.
"The one who wants to wear the crown, bears the crown.."For nineteen episodes, I thought that the title of this drama was meant for our main character, Kim Tan. But in the last episode, I realised that this sentence was for Kim Won.
Truth to be told, I was really heartbroken to see Won & Hyunjoo's breakup. They were one of my favourite couples, and I have always thought that they would get together at the end. When Won gave her that wishbone in the beginning of the drama, my gut feeling said that it was gonna bring bad luck. Sadly, it did. I had a hope that they would work out at the end, and although a happy ending for everyone seems too idealistic, but I didn't think that they would lose each other after all that. But Hyunjoo is right, Won dreams to succeed in a higher place, whilst Tan dreams of making Eunsang his whole world. They each had a crown that they were chasing; Tan chose love, Won chose the company. With that decision, they have to bear the consequences that it brought. I understood why Won chose the company. Like he said, it doesn't matter what you like or what you want to do, sometimes fate itself chose you. So he has to live with that pain of losing Hyunjoo, for the sake of family and the company. The scene where he cried in the office was really, really heartbreaking. But looking at the positive light, he did fix his relationship with his brother, so it's not all sad on his part.
Choi Youngdo's reunion with his mother stole the episode for me. Kim Woobin's acting here was really brilliant. Even though I would've liked Youngdo and Eunsang to happen, but I would rather have him reuniting with his mum. I thought that Eunsang & Youngdo could be friends though. It feels like the drama had so many loose ends that left unsolved. In that sense, I'm not really 100% satisfied with the ending. I liked how they also hinted on Hyoshin & Rache
